Netflix’s Love Is Blind U.K. premiered on August 7, 2024, hosted by Matt and Emma Willis.
The show follows the same format as the U.S. version, where singles date in pods and get engaged without seeing each other.
“Love is Blind UK is currently on the lookout for single, open-minded individuals from across the U.K. and Ireland who are ready to take the plunge into finding true love,” read the description on the casting website.
“If you are looking for a committed relationship and are ready to meet someone new, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.”
Eligible applicants had to be over 18 years old and have the right to reside in the U.K. or Ireland.
In July 2024, the show released the highly anticipated trailer for the first season of the British edition of the dating reality series. The first four episodes were released on August 7, 2024.
Where was ‘Love Is Blind U.K.’ Season 1 filmed?
The U.K. version was likely filmed in mid-late 2023 or early 2024, with production announced in February 2023 and casting calls following soon after.
Interestingly, the show was not filmed in the U.K. but in Stockholm, Sweden, using the same pods as the Swedish version.
The cast then flew to Corfu, Greece, for a post-pod honeymoon at the luxurious Angsana Corfu Resort & Spa.
The show is now streaming on Netflix, leaving viewers wondering about the couples’ current status and future reunions.
They fall in love “sight unseen” and get engaged, all before meeting in person.
The highly popular show also has versions available in Sweden, Brazil, and Japan.
These binge-worthy shows always leave viewers with questions, such as, “Are the couples still together?” “When will the reunion be released?”
