What started out as a fun night out turned into something much more for Newcastle couple Adam Hayes and Mia Gilmour.
When the pair decided to go along to a speed dating event with friends at the city's Market Shaker last October, they never expected to find love. But Adam and Mia, both 22, ended up hitting it off during the evening and have now been together for six months.
The event, hosted by NCL Dates, sees participants spend around six minutes chatting with each date before rating them on a score sheet and selecting up to 10 people they would like to see again. If there's a match, the NCL Dates team will share contact details with the pair so they can arrange a second date.
