CAMERA – sound – action!
Channel 4 arrived at York Croquet Club in style with full technical support to record an episode of the long-running dating programme Streetmate. The episode featured a young woman and a young man meeting for the first time on the croquet lawn to see whether that special spark would be kindled between them.
Both were trying croquet for the first time. After a close-fought game (which the young lady won) the pair retreated to the lawnside to enjoy a summer lunch, laid on by Channel 4 complete with Pimms, to start to get to know each other better. They then decided, with the cameras still rolling, whether to meet up for a second date.
Recorded June 2017, broadcast September 2017
