In this first episode, the doors of First Dates Beach Club swing open for the very first time as Fréd and the team welcome a wave of singles to Spain. Charlie, an ex-bouncer with a soft side, makes an impression on Layla, a single mum of two who's ready to dive back into dating. Unlucky-in-love teacher Jessie feels a connection with Darren, but the question is whether romance will blossom, or if history will repeat itself? And as Sep nervously puts his best foot forward, he finds himself across the table from Yas, a confident car detailer. 

Glamorous single mum Aimee - self-titled as 'brainbox Barbie' - makes her Beach Club debut, hoping to find her Ken. Does Disney prince lookalike Flynn fit the bill? And is there a twist in the tale? The first chapter for some couples draws to a close as Jessie and Darren, and Charlie and Elle, pack up their sun-kissed romances. Were they merely holiday flings, or maybe the start of something longer lasting? Support worker Joe has never had a girlfriend. His brutal honesty and pun-packed humour usually send dates running. How will veterinary nurse Emily get along with Joe's quirks and jokes?
