Blind Date

The latest of our evening entertainment events was our own version of Blind Date, a well known British TV programme that highlights the quirky British sense of humour and offers the chance to find love and romance. Or in this case a chance to earn points for our Dragon or Lion teams.Randomly selceted students had to answer questions about a huge range of fun and interesting topics and those students from the audience who's answers agreed remained in with a chance of finding love (or more importantly points for their teams!!!)

Ekaterina and Yagiz were amongst the couples that were hooked up.

The Activity Leaders did an amazing job of generating noise from the lively audience and the participants enjoyed the race to be the last contestant in with a chance of romance.

Some of the stars of the show were a little more shy than others....

but she couldn't complain with the end result!

One of the highlights of this years Discovery Summer School in Uppingham has been the willingness of all the students to get involved and join in the fun. The audience participation has been amazing and we hope it continues throughout the rest of the course!

Possibly the most well matched couple of the night was Claire and Johannes. After being paired up together they spent the rest of the evening deep in conversation and with another week of Discovery Summer together who knows what the future might hold.....?
