As Live- update

Blind date

I have continued to progress with my idea of the dating cookery show for my As Live unit. It has become more and more apparent to me that the more I add to this idea, the less it becomes about a cookery dating show and more about a general dating show with a twist. i have come to think of my idea as a modern day version of Blind Date.
I have been developing some of my ideas for the challenges/rounds of my show and have come up with 3 firm ideas:

Round one; a cookery section in which the 3 guys have to cook for the bachelorette. The twist to this will be that the cooking will be done in the girls kitchen and seeing as the identities of the 3 bachelors cannot be revealed she will be wearing a blindfold. This means that the intrigue and excitement of wanting to know who she is talking to is kept but the girl still gets to know the guy and obviously taste his food too. This part of the show will be pre recorded and shown as 3 separate VT's on the day of filming.

Round two; this round will consist of one member of each guys family, or a close friend will be brought onto the show to reveal a secret/embarrassing story about each guy. Hopefully something very controversial! This will be filmed in front of a live audience in the studio.

Round 3; this round will be the final chance for the bachelorette to learn the last few crucial things she feels she needs to before making her final decision. A simple question and answer round means that the girl can ask controversial or fair questions that she feels appropriate on the road to making her decision. I was possibly thinking of having some questions from the audience in this section too as a bit of participation from them would add another dimension to the programme.
