"I used to fish with Joe Dolan's brother".
New year, new love.
First Dates Ireland is back on our TV screens tonight as a host of brand new faces aim to find love in the iconic First Dates restaurant.
RTÉ 2 have released a few teaser clips ahead of tonight's show which is on from 9:30pm.
First up, we meet double daters Mary and Martina from Limerick. They're twins who say they definitely don't share the same taste in men. They'll be set up with clean-cut Sylvester and stonemason David but will the lads make an impression?
This date also provides an iconic chat up line - "I used to fish with Joe Dolan's brother".

Elsewhere on tonight's show, animation student Eric is worried that his stammer might ruin his date while self-confessed ladies' man Barry-John from south Dublin meets his match in feisty model Katarina from Laois.
