Synopsis:
Love is Blind UK, hosted by Matt and Emma Willis, revitalised the global hit with a distinctly British twist. Launching in August 2024, it became the UK’s third most-streamed TV show with 40.9M views and 4.5M unique viewers, averaging 9 views per person. It topped Netflix charts in multiple countries and was praised for mature, authentic casting, emotional depth and rom-com sensibility. Critics highlighted its fresh, loveable cast, with iNews calling it possibly the best version worldwide. The show embraced diversity, with bespoke casting to reflect race, neurodiversity, mental health, LGBTQIA+ and regional representation, supported by a diverse welfare team. Filmed across the UK, Sweden and Cyprus, the production overcame the challenges of managing large, interwoven storylines to deliver a warm, inclusive and uniquely British take on the format.
