About the show

Expect flirting, friction and fun as 25 girls do whatever it takes to impress Welsh international rugby star and one of the country's most eligible bachelors, Gavin Henson.

On the hunt for his perfect match, Gavin will have his pick of some of the most attractive women in the UK, from beautiful models to ambitious career women. Through a variety of group dates and intimate meetings, Gavin must whittle down from 25 to one his would-be suitors and, along the way, learn exactly what it is he’s looking for in a soulmate.

Emotions will be running high - and not just on the dates. The girls will be living together, too, sharing the same space and the same man! While they get settled in a communal villa in sun-soaked Southern Europe, Gavin will live alone nearby, in a luxurious bachelor pad.

Each episode ends with an elimination ceremony, in which Gav offers a rose to those girls he wants to stay on and get to know better. But with not enough to go round, some of the girls will be sorely disappointed.
