The Undateables: Twitter’s Verdict
To paraphrase Jane Eyre: Readers, I watched it. And it was all: disabled man loves mother (which most of them do, not at all romantically), disabled man has been on one date in 20 years which lasted 20 minutes, disabled girl has never-been-kissed. How revealing those facts turns the ‘undateable’ stereotype on its head I have no idea.
Apart from that it was actually halfway decent. It reminded me quite a bit of Blind Date, which I actually quite liked in my early childhood. So, now you have my verdict.
It may or may not surprise you to know that like every other programme on the TV these days, the Blind Date of disability has it’s own hashtag. You can find out what Twitter has to say about The Undateables by following #undateables.
