This week’s Celebrity First Dates had a host of stars hoping to find love, but one in particular stole the show.
Jo Wood, ex-wife of Ronnie Wood from the Rolling Stones, Sam Preston of Ordinary Boys and Big Brother fame and Ashleigh Butler (without partner Pudsey) were all hoping to find ‘the one’.
Scarlett was a resounding favourite (Screengrab/Channel 4)
However Scarlett Moffatt shone brightest, as she is used to doing on Gogglebox, with her hilarious one-liners and general loveliness.
Already loving @ScarlettMoffatt on #firstdates she's got the best chat 😂

She confessed to mistaking Uncle Ben (from the rice packets) for Nelson Mandela
"They showed us a picture of the Uncle Ben's rice guy… It was actually Nelson Mandela." Amazing. Loving @ScarlettMoffatt on #firstdates

She showed off her ballroom dancing skills
Scarlett may have made her date a little jealous here… (Screengrab/Channel 4)
She was British ballroom champion at the age of 16, who knew?! She explained to her date that this is why she was a pioneer of fake tan.
No chance of @ScarlettMoffatt going on @bbcstrictly then, she'd wipe the floor with them! #firstdates

She proved how like us she is by calling a friend in the loos to talk about her date
Also @ScarlettMoffatt sorry your date didn't stop talking about himself 😩😂 #firstdates

He wasn’t quite to her taste. “He doesn’t ask any questions!” she told her friend.
Seriously will he ever let @ScarlettMoffatt talk its the only reason we're all watching #firstdates pic.twitter.com/jZqplsgeEV

She was brave enough to tell her date why she didn’t want to see him again
Ask your next date a bit more about herself (Screengrab/Channel 4)
Scarlet is just gonna say what she really thinks about him soon #FirstDates

Never mind everyone, it looks like she’s found love anyway, without the help of a TV show!
So in an hour I will be watching first dates with my now boyfriend,this is more awkward than the time I watched basic instinct with my rents

Good luck Scarlett, the nation is rooting for you.
