Overview

  • The UK dating show, first aired in 2001 and last seen in 2009, is being revived after 16 years off the air.
  • Fremantle Media, the original producer, has started casting single farmers and city dwellers for the reboot.
  • The new format will feature inclusive casting, welcoming participants of all genders, sexualities, ages, and love interests.
  • The revival is attributed to a growing interest in rural living, influenced by popular farming shows like Clarkson’s Farm and post-Covid lifestyle changes.
  • No broadcaster or host has been confirmed yet, but the project is in its early stages with significant excitement surrounding its return.
