Fans of My Mum, Your Dad got their first glimpse of new contestant Martin tonight (September 12).
The reality show has been dubbed “middle-aged Love Island” and started last night. Over the next two weeks, the single parents will get the chance to find a new love.
Now that Martin is entering the mix, will he cause a commotion? A day or so behind on the chemistry front, with the other parents having spent time together, he has his work cut out for him.

Who is Martin H?
Hopeful Martin’s daughter Jessica nominated him to appear on the show.
Martin is unlike the other contestants – he is much taller. He stands at 6ft 10in and hopes his time in the idyllic Surrey mansion will be fruitful.
Martin is 56 years old (at the time of filming) and hails from Birmingham but lives in Epsom.
He is a retired basketball player, a sports presenter and a managing director.
Martin said: “I’m big, I’m fun, I’m outgoing and I consider myself to be a likeable sort of bloke. I’ve spent 90% of my life in the friendzone… I’m everyone’s best friend.”
The friendly chap said he was looking for love, and it starts with a smile.
