Celebs Go Dating star Paul Carrick Brunson has admitted that he didn’t know who the stars were in the latest series of the E4 show.
The 46-year-old love doctor discussed the return of the celebrity dating show in an appearance on Lorraine this morning.
The hit E4 series will see a new batch of frisky stars looking for love from 9 pm on Monday (January 17).
But, Paul Carrick Brunson said he had “no idea” who this year’s cast members were, with a line-up including presenter and columnist Ulrika Jonsson and Towie star Chloe Brockett.
Host Lorraine Kelly asked: “Were you surprised by the celebrities? Do they surprise you? Because we see them in a completely different light.”
Paul replied: “What's interesting is, because I come from the United States, I have no idea who any of the celebrities are.
“No idea. When I walked in I remember the person who drove me in said, I can't wait to see what happens with Ulrika. I don't know.”
This year’s cast also includes The Apprentice star Ryan-Mark Parsons, Made in Chelsea’s Miles Nazaire, For Five star Abz Love and reality TV star Nikita Jasmine.
Channel 4 has promised this season will be the most dramatic series yet as the renowned London-based dating agency is back with a makeover.
The series will feature new challenges, memorable dating outings and more chances for celebs to find the one.
The broadcaster said: “Viewers can expect a rollercoaster ride of dating highs and lows, bombshell moments, and plenty of laughs.
“After weeks of multiple dates and mentoring, the Celebs will be asked to choose their final date to take away on a romantic couple’s getaway.”
