People keep saying, how the hell did I not figure Undressed wouldn’t involve getting undressed on TV. Even Jess asked similar questions in the audio we recorded.
I even started wondering if I missed something myself…?
So I looked back through emails and found the one which started it all. An email from good friend Jane saying…
Not sure if this is something you’d be interested in but you are the dating King!!
Then the rest of the email was a forward from Adam at RDF TV

I originally replied to Jane with a thanks but no thanks, however the 36 questions did intrigue me. Especially the idea of trying it out to see if accelerated intimacy is actually a thing or not.
Yeah I’m avoiding most of the TV dating stuff, even if I’m going on First Dates (as a background dater) and Horizon’s dating experiment.
Although I am very tempted…Its based on this…

Then after a bit of thought and a blog… I replied again with
Decided again, its not going to kill me to go for it. And it will be quite an experience if things work out
(…and what a experience it was!)
So you see, it wasn’t till the researcher/producer called me up at work on the afternoon of 29th March, and asked me the question about how comfortable I was with my body? At that moment I suddenly became very wise to what undressed really means.
