Blind date

Susan on Trevor First impressions? A nice face, friendly and open. What did you talk about? The acting industry, past jobs and experiences, his work in the community. Any awkward moments? He had very sweetly brought me chocolates, a card and a ­lottery ticket. A very nice gesture. I didn't have the heart to tell him he got my name wrong on the card. Good table manners? Yes, he handled the dim sum exceptionally well. Best thing about him? His chattiness. Did you go on somewhere? No, it was getting late. But he did walk me to the tube and was very chivalrous and helped a drunk girl down the stairs on the way. Marks out of 10? 5. Would you meet again? I took his card, so I could tell him if I won the lottery. We may cross paths in a casting one day. Trevor on Susan First impressions? ­ Attractive and articulate. What did you talk about? The Meisner acting method, skiing, plans for 2010, family – lots of stuff. Any awkward moments? A couple: I implied that her brother might be gay because he's Welsh, plays rugby and has two sisters. She just gave me a polite smile. Also, I admitted to Googling her because I knew she was an actress. She'd tried to Google me, too, but with a name like mine she didn't get much. Good table manners? ­ Delightful, good with chop­sticks and with sharing. Best thing about her? Good sense of humour – she laughed at most of the things I said. Did you go on somewhere? No, we stayed quite late. Marks out of 10? 8. I was in good company and we were well looked after. Would you meet again? As long as there's no court injunction. I gave her my card, so we'll see. • Susan and Trevor ate at Ping Pong , London E1. What happened next? Keefe Norris and Matthew Willis's went out on a blind date was in May 2009. Keefe gave Matthew 10 out of 10, Matthew gave him 7. Keefe We did see each other again, but only by chance – we passed each other on the street. We spoke briefly, and I said we should go for a drink sometime, but we never managed it. I think it was partly my fault that we didn't meet again. I gave him 10 because, from a first date impression, I had nothing to fault. Basically, he wanted to be friends, which was cool by me, but I think he felt I wanted more. It was a shame, but I coped. Matthew He emailed a couple of times, but I never got round to ­replying. I just didn't fancy him. I was polite in my review of the date, but we didn't click. There were too many things that weren't right: I hate cats, he's got a cat; I hate Gran Canaria, he loves it. But he did give me a 10! That made my day, week, month. If ever I have a bad day, I think of that. Fancy a blind date? Email: [email protected]
