Is love anything more complex than chemical signals in the brain? Can human companionship ever be replaced by a sentient robot?
These are just some of the questions puzzling Jeff Parsons and Shivali Best in this week's episode of our Future File podcast.

The presenters celebrate the fact the most romantic day of the year with a trip into the high-tech world of romance. 

They find out which dating app is the most popular, what a sex robot actually costs and why they'll both be taking their respective partners to Greggs.

Whether you're looking for love or happily settled - this week's episode is best enjoyed with a bottle of wine and a box of your favourite chocolates.
