A 29-year-old woman relives the moment her boyfriend of three years suddenly died in a car accident when she appears on the latest episode of Channel 4's First Dates. Car parts saleswoman Lana, who is looking for a new man in her life, tells her date, project manager Luke: "I moved up here with a guy that I was with together for three years and then he died in a car accident a couple of months after we moved." Her date, visibly shocked, replies: "Really?"
Then, in her interview with producers, Lana explains: "It didn't sink in at all. I wasn't hysterical, I wasn't anything. I just thought, there's something wrong here, it's not him."
She continues: "Because people are immortal to you. If they mean that much to you, nothing can happen. It throws your whole life into chaos and then you have to restart and rebuild."
