Louise and Ryan are going on their first date. Well, not technically their first ever, but one ten years after their first. Dressed up and ready to impress, they’re pretending it’s day one all over again.

Over starters, they rewind to their actual first impressions and that very unexpected first date. They talk about what they love most about each other, what men really look for in a woman, and whether they’d swipe right on each other if dating apps had been a thing back then.

As the mains arrive, things get a little deeper. Valentine’s Day comes up, along with the pressure that can sit around it and how romance looks different when you’re parents. They talk honestly about making time for each other, whether that means scheduling it in or keeping things spontaneous, and how ten years later they’re still figuring out how to keep things exciting.

By dessert, there are gifts, a little unexpected ex chat including a Made in Chelsea Valentine’s breakup reveal, and a very sweet surprise from Leo for Mummy that brings it all back to what really matters.
