In a world where attraction is often based purely on looks, and social media encourages us to choose a potential Date in a split second, judged solely on someone's appearance, Sexy Beasts uses Hollywood prosthetics to transform people before they go on a first date, taking their real looks out of the equation.
Using personality alone, can they find that elusive spark, and meet 'The One'?
In this episode, Alex the demon seeks to find love with Belinda the tentacled-monster, Charlotte the werewolf, and Vicky the alien. Can the world's fussiest Demon stop retching for long enough enjoy a date in a cheese shop? What about when he takes to the ice, for a skating session whilst bemused members of the public look on?
The real faces of the people involved are only revealed to everyone in the show and to us at home after all the dating is done. Having picked his favourite has Alex gone for someone that could be his usual 'type', or has dating based solely on personality led him down a different route? If so, has he now found the beginnings of true love as a result?...
