❤️Channel 4 Sales has partnered with NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) on an exciting new Channel 4.0 series: Love is in the Blood. Available now, the series aims to demystify the blood donation process for young people and entertain viewers at the same time. Get ready to follow eight singletons who will go on blind dates behind dividers while they donate to help save lives. Getting to know each other in this unusual way, these single hopefuls are quizzed by Adeola to find out what makes their heart beat when it comes to romance. After the ‘donation date’ is over they will have a decision to make. They can choose to meet the person on the other side face-to-face, or head home none the wiser…. Love is in the Blood is produced by Word on the Curb, with the partnership deal, media planning and buying led by OmniGOV at MG OMD. ❤️
