A Chapel-en-le-Frith singleton has been looking for love - in just his boxers!

Jake Land has been single for a while and was feeling unlucky in love so decided to take a risk and go on a dating show where he sat on a bed with a woman he has never met only in his underwear.

The 22-year-old said: “I’ve not had much luck with girls before so I wanted to try something different and what a way to break down the barriers than to have a first date in your pants.”

He will appear on TLC’s Undressed tomorrow, Wednesday, and a re-run will be shown on Thursday at 11.30pm.

Jake applied in July but was not matched with anyone until September when he did the filming with his potential suitor, Ellie.

He said: “It was a very strange experience. We had 30 seconds to chat and then we had to undress each other.

“I undressed her first and once we were both stripped down we sat on the bed.”

The couple only had 30 minutes to get to know each other and a screen was giving them prompt questions like are you a romantic and are you a good kisser?

Jake said: “We didn’t kiss properly as Ellie’s parent’s didn’t know she was even coming on the show.

“It was awkward at first but then you get talking and forget the cameras are there.”

At the end of the date the couple then voted on whether they wanted to see each other again, both voted yes however as Ellie lives in Birmingham and Jake does not drive they are just texting at the minute.

Jake added: “It has given me more confidence with girls, I don’t like dating apps as you never really get to know the person but now I have the confidence to go to bars and actually chat to people.”
