ITV dating show My Mum, Your Dad is set to return for a second series.
My Mum, Your Dad is a unique dating show designed for the whole family.
First airing earlier this year, it sees a group of single parents nominated by their adult children getting a chance at love. The singles from various backgrounds across the UK come together at a picturesque country house retreat, all with the shared goal of finding true love.
Anxious parents are dropped off by their supportive children, who offer words of encouragement. The twist? The kids gather at ‘The Bunker,’ where host Davina McCall reveals that they will secretly monitor their parents’ romantic journey and guide them in their quest for love while posing as dating experts.
My Mum, Your Dad renewed for second series
Fresh from the end of season one, it’s been confirmed that a second series is now in the works.
Casting is now open for grown-up kids to nominate their single parents via www.itv.com/beontv.
Paul Mortimer, ITV Director of Reality and Acquisitions commented: “The positive reaction to series one was unprecedented in my experience.
“From widower Roger finding new love, to the grown-up kids cringing in the secret Bunker as their parents dusted down their dating moves, this was a fresh and welcome take on TV matchmaking. I’m so pleased to be able to once again open the retreat to more single parents in 2024.”
Davina told The Sun newspaper that she was excited to couple up more single parents, sharing: “I want to present this show for the rest of my life!
“I’ve been sent photographs of couples since! The show works. I really am Cupid!”
You can take a look at which My Mum Your Dad couples are still together here.
For now, you can catch up on the full first series of the show online now via ITVX.
Davina raved: “Fascinating, vibrant individuals who have lived incredible lives already, with a million life lessons under their belts, as they search for their perfect life partner. But also with the juiciest twist of any show I’ve ever worked on.”
