The show's cross-generational appeal and genuine moments of love and connection make it a standout in the dating show genre. We can’t wait to see how audiences embrace it.” A dating show with a difference for the whole family, My Mum, Your Dad follows a group of single parents who have been nominated by their young adult kids for a second chance at love. Throughout the season, viewers will follow these parents from all walks of life as they live together in a stunning country house retreat with one objective: to find true love. But there’s a twist - unbeknownst to the parents, their grown-up kids will be watching their every move from a nearby location called ‘The Bunker’. It is there, in the surveillance room, that they’ll witness all the action of their parents’ journeys to find love, and get the chance to play matchmaker and decide their mum or dad’s dating fate. From humorous moments to heartwarming confessions, the young adult kids will see their parents in a whole new light. They’ll have opportunities to select who their parents will be matched with on one-to-one dates and who may join the family celebrations for years to come. Get the tissues at the ready as we witness the highs and the lows, the tears and the funny moments, of finding love again.
