What happens

Blind Date is an Australian television game show which was originally based on the American series The Dating Game.

Jeremy Cordeaux hosted the show in 1970. A 1974 version on the Seven Network was hosted by Scottish-born Bobby Hanna. A 1991 version hosted by Greg Evans was screened on Network Ten as a revived version of Perfect Match, which was also based on the same format.
