The nine “witty, touching and true” half-hour episodes will each focus on two people on a date.

The official synopsis reveals: “Some characters may recur, perhaps going on return dates or having new ones, so the stories gradually start to build around them. Some characters we’ll root for, some we’ll hate. Dates is about the infinite diversity of people, and the complicated, infuriating, hilarious ways we interact with each other.”

Elsley commented: “Dates is about the encounter between two people, at the modern precipice of our emotional lives where we come in emotional disguise only to find ourselves at our most exposed. These stories pitch characters straight into the ring with each other. Some of them will sink, some will swim, and some will stagger back for more.”
