Five Guys A Week heads to Sunderland as sales executive Nina looks for love

Five Guys A Week heads to Sunderland as the Channel 4 show comes to an end on Tuesday night.

The crazy new show, which has nothing to do with a famous burger chain and EVERYTHING to do with extreme speed dating, is like Come Dine With Me, meets Dinner Date meets Love Is Blind x100, and has had developed quite a cult following since it made its debut last month.

The premise of Five Guys A Week is that a single lady invites five gents she's never met before to date her over the course a week, with the big twist being that they all have to live under the same roof in her house and she has to give one of them their marching orders every morning until she's left with just one.

And on Tuesday, for the show's fifth and final episode its the turn of Sunderland sales executive Nina to look for love.

Nina, 33, used to be a dancer at hotels in Dubai and Disneyland Paris and has also been a Red Coat and magician’s assistant.

The five guys who move in with her are: financial adviser Mark, part-time model Scott, oil rig abseiler Joe, Marine Engineering student Carl and operations manager Dale.

Talking about being on the show, Nina said: "Dating’s not really been my thing,I’ve only just started dating again as I’m recently single.

"I’ve just kind of dated through work, I’ve never really done the dating app thing. I think I went on Tinder for two weeks and then came off it without meeting up with anyone. I just threw myself in massively with Five Guys, because I’m not a serial dater in all fairness."
