A television company hoped love would blossom in Pershore when they chose it as the location to film a new episode of Date my Daughter.

The programme features eligible bachelors who use dates with three mothers to find out which of their single daughters he wants to date for real.

Pictured are Mike Roberts, aged 24, from Blackpool, and 48-year-old Pat Warren, from Gillingham, who were were sent to Pershore Leisure Centre at the end of April to enjoy a date in the gym. They are shown with the ITV1 show's crew.

The show, presented by Vicki Butler-Henderson, will be screened at 2.45pm on Thursday, June 16.
