BBC Three - My Mate's a Bad Date, Series 1, Harriet

Harriet thinks burping on dates is fine! Sadly, her potential partners don’t agree.

Twenty-one-year-old Harriet likes to drink, burp and fart her way to love, but it’s not working so far. Oloni wants her to make some changes and try something new.

Phoebe loves her sister Harriet, but she’s tired of her bizarre dating antics and bad manners! Harriet burps and farts on the first date, she has one too many beers to ease the awkward chat and is a serial ghoster in the DMs.

It’s time for an intervention, so Phoebe calls on one of Gen Z’s most trusted sex and relationships experts, Oloni, to help Harriet become less of a car crash dater and more like her bubbly and eccentric self when she’s out on dates. Oloni unpacks Harriet’s dating history, runs through her socials and dating apps and gives her a cold, hard reality check with honest and sometimes blunt video feedback from friends, family and exes to show her where it’s all going wrong. 

Under the watchful eye of Oloni and Phoebe, Harriet goes on three first dates that will challenge her to take Oloni’s advice on board and become a better dater. Can Harriet stop the burping, slow down the drinking and up her love game?
