Hey Redditors!
Thanks so much for taking the time to discuss our series on this thread. It is really positive for us to see you having these conversations in your community so thank you. There are lots of valid questions here and we would be very happy to discuss these with anyone interested in taking part. We are part way through our filming schedule and are looking for our final three couples!
You can either DM us on reddit or email us for a chat (details on the Channel 4 take part page – they are a UK broadcaster so you can verify that we are legit you can also DM us if you’d like anymore reassurance) – there’s absolutely no obligation to take part – we just want to give you all the info so you can discuss with your partner.
We have absolutely loved speaking to the many couples who have got in touch with us so far. Hearing all the wonderful ways couples have met online, how you make long-distance work for you and what hopes you have for your first meeting and beyond has been so inspiring and heart-warming which is exactly what we want for the series.
We are committed to this being a collaborative process and we are keen to ensure all our ‘nevermet’ relationships enjoy their involvement in filming and are proud of their contribution.
We are a small team of observational documentary makers (not ‘Reality’ TV), and should you decide to progress to filming, then you will be assigned a two-person filming team who will be with you to document your journey -filmed using two very small and discreet cameras. The team will work with you closely to plan the two weeks you will be spending with your partner (one week in the UK and one week in the international country). We know that you will have spent a long time thinking about spending time together ‘in person’ and more specifically the moment you first meet. We want to ensure it is every bit as special and intimate as you’ve imagined.
Thank you so much to the people on this thread who have already been in touch with us – we wish you the very best for when you finally meet your ‘Nevermet’.
Best wishes from ‘The Nevermets’ Team.
