NATALIE GRUZLEWSKI: Last night, five brand-new farmers
began their search for everlasting love.
Being a cowboy isn't just about riding a horse.
Being a cowboy is about respect and honesty and loyalty.
Hello!
I'm looking for a cowgirl of my own.
Have you had much to do with horses?
I haven't ridden a horse since primary school.
We might be able to fix that for you.
Yes, please!
I love a good yap.
Like, what's your biggest fear?
But don't give me, like, surface level.
I suppose not being the bloke I should, like,
I want to be the best fella that you ever had.
I don't think I'm a typical farmer because I'm quirky,
I'm nerdy, I love writing, I love reading.
This is one of my favourite books.
This is yours to keep.
I'm a hopeless romantic.
I love weddings.
Ooh, yeah. Yeah, you read my mind.
I was going to tell you about my favourite wedding.
Twilight wedding with the wooden bench.
Iconic.
That what your wedding's gonna look like?
I hope.
I feel as though I've got a lot of love to give.
I might look all rough on the outside,
but I think deep down, I'm a big softie.
You're lovely and you make me very nervous.
One of the major issues I've had is trying to find a woman
that would move to the farm.
I want someone country that understands how beautiful it is
just to watch the sunset over a paddock.
NATALIE: After a whirlwind day of speed dating, Farmer Alex,
Jason, and Dylan, each chose five ladies to take back to their farm.
I'm looking forward to getting to know each and every one of them.
Tonight, apple farmer Zac...
I'm not a shy boy, but sometimes pretty ladies can probably
make me a little bit nervous.
You're exactly my type.
You're a country boy. I'm really attracted to that.
Fair enough.
I just want someone to love me for me.
And single dad, Farmer Jarrad...
I love my boys and the time we spend together.
It would be really good to have someone to share that with.
That sort of family unit.
We have similar values, I think. Yeah.
..meet their potential partners.
She could be the girl that I'm looking for.
Then...
You're going to choose one lady to head back to the farm,
a full 24 hours ahead of anyone else.
..it's off to the farms...
It's beautiful up here.
..for a very special solo date.
I'm so impressed. Pretty good?
Where the first sparks of romance ignite.
I know what I'm feeling, and I think there's definitely
a bit more than a spark there.
Well, at least what I'm feeling. Yeah.
# In my heart. #
NATALIE: For 15 seasons,
Farmer Wants A Wife has shown us that even in the most remote corners
of the country, hearts can find their match.
Everyone as nervous as each other!
Well, now it's time for Farmer Jarrad and Farmer Zac to meet
eight hopeful ladies, for a round of quick conversations
that could change their lives forever.
You've got some beautiful women around you.
Yeah. That's for sure.
Oh my god.
I have never been in love.
I really want to find that.
So, Zac, get ready, because I am on my way.
This must be intimidating, having eight women.
Yeah, it is.
I am definitely ready for a more traditional farm boy.
City boys just aren't committing.
You picked a bunch of good girls. Yeah.
Thank god we don't have to choose.
First impressions of Farmer Jarrad is that he is muy caliente.
He's very hot.
I'm Farmer Jarrad.
I'm an almond farmer from the Riverland in South Australia.
I've been single for two years.
It's been good.
That was a joke.
I was married.
It was really hard. It didn't work out, but I feel like
I've learned a lot from that.
I've done a lot of self-reflection and I know now what's important
to me, and I know what I want for my future.
I'm a single dad.
I've got two boys, ages 12 and 9.
I love my boys and the time we spend together,
and it would be really good
to have someone to share that with and to be part of it.
That seems to be the missing link for me at the moment.
What sort of girl do you reckon
I should meet? Who'd be good for me?
Someone that... Maybe someone that's...
Respectful. Kind.
Yeah, someone that's nice and kind likes the river and likes...
But there's probably a girl from Sydney that you probably like.
And they don't know the river.
That's true.
Where I live, it is quite remote.
You can feel a little isolated at times, so it does make it hard
meeting women out here.
I'm really looking for someone that I can go through the good times
and the bad, and be that supportive person in their life as well,
and be their rock. For the right woman,
I think, um, I've got a lot to offer.
Can I say that?
I'm a total catch.
Alright, girls, well, thanks again for coming.
And really looking forward to meeting you and getting to know you
better over the speed date. So yeah. Cheers.
ALL: Cheers! To finding love. Hopefully.
Bye.
See ya.
That was exciting. He's lovely.
I did not check out his butt in those jeans.
I've got a little something I'd like to say.
So... Go for it.
Look, I just want to thank you for making this absolute
giant leap of faith to come meet me, of all people.
I'm definitely going to fumble and crumble under the pressure.
We all will.
It doesn't help being surrounded by so many beautiful ladies.
I'm not a shy boy, but sometimes pretty ladies can probably make me
a little bit nervous.
I haven't stopped pacing all day.
It's ridiculous.
I just can't go up to someone pretty and just strike up a conversation.
The fear of rejection just absolutely gets to me.
I'm a little bit of a weirdo, so...
Um...
Cheers.
Cheers!
I'm Farmer Zac. I'm 24.
I'm an apple farmer from the Adelaide Hills, South Australia.
Apples. Love 'em.
Adelaide Hills is stunning.
As good as it gets out here.
I just love the serenity of it, I guess.
What's missing in my life is that person that I can spend my
future with, work on the house together, call it a home,
be a husband, be a father.
I mean, it's as important as it gets.
I have been in love before.
I thought she might have been the one.
And when we were parting ways, I genuinely had
that heartbreak feeling.
I was so devastated when she left.
Like, I would just absolutely hate to go through that heartbreak again.
I'm so ready to find that right person.
I hope they feel the same way.
Like, I'm 100% on board.
That special person's out there.
But you just don't know where and when you'll find them.
Hopefully it's today.
# Something has changed in the way that I feel
# Did you notice? #
Oh my god. It is absolutely ridiculous that I'm here.
It's got me sweating all over.
It's got me feeling so many different emotions.
But I want to find that special someone who lets me be myself.
I just want to be happy and find that right person
who likes me for me.
So, yeah.
# Tell me that you feel this way
# I want you to feel the same
# This is do or die. #
Hello. Hello, hello.
Dating in Melbourne is grim.
Everyone is just happy to keep it casual.
And no-one really wants to commit. How are you?
Oh, yeah.
This is lovely. Not too bad.
I feel like with Farmer Zac, there may be a little bit
more commitment involved.
I have obviously read his profile, and I have actually found little
key details that I would love to bring up with him today.
I feel like I already know you, Zac. Like, the amount of times
I've watched your video.
I read your profile. Oh, yuck!
We have a lot in common.
We actually do. Yeah.
Like, we both like 80s rock, but also some modern music.
You like Billie Eilish? Yeah.
Kendrick...what's his name?
Kendrick Lamar. Yep, yep!
What else? We're both foodies.
Oh my god. That's seriously the way to my heart.
I love food. Get stuck in the kitchen quite a bit. I love it.
Yeah, same! I can cook anything.
Yeah, right.
Maya was easygoing, chatty.
Which is awesome because it makes it a lot easier for me
to sort of be myself and just have that conversation.
So yeah, it's an awesome first impression.
Try looking in your eyes.
If I had to guess your love language, Zac,
you kind of do give, like, golden retriever energy.
In the best way. In the best way.
I love golden retrievers.
Zac definitely lived up to his profile. He's very handsome.
It was lovely, lovely to meet you.
Nice to meet you, too. I'll give you a hug.
All the butterflies have turned into little fireflies,
and they're just flying everywhere.
What a way to start!
Stop laughing!
# Eyes wide shut to what's right in front
# Where do we go from here? #
Can be challenging being a single parent when you're looking for love.
But I'm so ready to meet my future partner.
I'm looking for someone that's just nurturing and caring.
That sort of nature would be really nice, but also someone
that will pull me up on my BS when they need to.
Hello, how are ya?
Hello.
What I'm looking for in a man is a gentleman.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to finally meet you.
Someone that wants a family and is caring and supportive.
You've got a nice calming energy about you.
So hopefully that helps. Very lovely.
I'm a fertility nurse.
I'd love to have children of my own, so I'd love to build a family
together and see where it takes us.
How are you feeling? Good?
Yeah. It's obviously a little bit outside the comfort zone.
Definitely. Definitely outside of my comfort zone.
And you're from New South Wales?
I am. And you're a nurse.
I am a nurse. I work in IVF, so... OK.
Yeah, help make babies. OK.
Yeah. It's an important job.
Yeah, it is. It is very important. I love my job.
I'm very lucky to do what I do.
But I also feel like I'm at a stage in my life now
where it's time to kind of, like, focus a bit more on myself
and building my own family and...
Yeah. That's good.
I love being a dad, and obviously I've got
two kids already.
I'd definitely have more kids with the right person.
For me, I'm really looking for someone
who wants to be a partnership
and making sure we're on the same page and we've got the same values.
So yeah, my focus is on sort of being dependable and reliable
and that sort of thing.
It sounds like we have similar values.
Yeah, I think so. Yeah.
I'm giddy right now, definitely.
Yeah. He's gorgeous and he's exactly what I'm looking for.
So nice to meet you.
Yeah, you too.
I think I'm more nervous now because
yeah, I think I like him, and I think that I will like him
more and more as this goes on.
Carly's really lovely.
She looks gorgeous. But I forgot to tell her she looked gorgeous.
So not a great start from me.
She could be the girl that I'm looking for.
Yeah. I'm excited.
Hey! Hello! Oh my god.
What have you got here?
I love your dress. And your belt and your boots and the vibe.
Thank you!
Seeing the ladies in person for the first time,
it's so, so different to just looking at their profiles.
Well, there's Mum and Dad. And then my brother, John.
We're actually twins.
I'm a twin!
You get a vibe for them.
And yeah, it was, like, I was speechless.
So yeah, which is unusual for me because normally
I don't stop blabbering.
So you're a flight attendant?
I quit my job to come and see you.
You did not!
I really did.
No, you didn't.
I'm very committed to making this work.
My heart is literally beating out of my chest.
Well, it was lovely to meet you properly.
They were absolutely gorgeous.
# You better be ready. #
City boys are just pathetic.
They're all the same.
They have really big egos.
They don't want to settle down.
All they do is party, work, girls.
It's the same every time. And I've had enough.
# She'll hit you like a cannon
# Can you smell the gasoline. #
Ha ha! Are you kidding?
I am very high maintenance, so I'm hoping Zac supports that.
And will be able to agree with everything I want to do.
But guess we'll find out if I'm too much or he can handle it.
Hello, hello. Hello, Zac.
How are you doing?
Can't say I've ever gone for someone like Miranda before.
Definitely punching well above my weight.
Bit nervous, fidgeting.
I'm very nervous!
Call you out.
Like I just don't feel like I'm the type of guy
that she would normally go for.
So, elephant in the room?
Yeah.
Would you normally go for a guy like me?
Bit nervous, fidgeting, are you?
I'm very nervous!
Call you out.
OK. So...
OK.
Here we go.
I can't say I've ever gone for someone like Miranda before.
Definitely am punching well above my weight.
So, elephant in the room?
Yeah.
Would you normally go for a guy like me?
Yeah, you're tall... Actually, you're exactly my type.
Believe it or not.
Here we go.
Tall, blue eyes.
I would never be with someone that has any other colour eyes.
Oh!
Because I need my kids to have blue eyes.
And I have, obviously, blue eyes.
Yeah. Nice smile.
So if I didn't have blue eyes, you wouldn't be here.
Eh.
Well, I need to think about my kids.
Yeah, true. So you obviously want kids?
Yeah, definitely. Do you want kids? Yeah, absolutely.
Hope so.
And I think just knowing that you're a country boy,
I'm really attracted to that.
Oh, there you go. There you go.
I'm a country girl at heart.
Country girl. Yeah, believe it or not, I don't know.
Well, have you ever heard of a turf farm?
A turf farm? Yeah.
That's what my family does.
Yeah, right. Turf.
Turf farm. So I am actually a little bit of a country girl.
Not that I will be getting my hands too dirty.
Not too dirty. Not about it.
But I do have something for you.
So it's a little piece from my farm that we can take back to your farm
and plant it together and watch it grow, as our love does.
Oh my god!
What? How did you manage this?
Yeah, all the way from Rockhampton.
This'll be a good patch of grass.
We best get back to the farm so we can plant it.
There you go. So you know how to look after some plants.
We'll have a good yard. You'll be doing the mowing.
Good yard. Fair enough.
If I didn't go back to the farm, I would be very disappointed.
But I'd also be very surprised.
That was absolutely... (LAUGHS)
So are you, though. Yeah.
It's absolutely brilliant to meet you.
Yeah, you too.
Like, what do you mean you're not going to pick me?
Oh, goodness.
What have I got myself into?
# So sweet Lovely
# Like silver and gold. #
It's not every day you compete with eight women.
NATALIE: When you're speed dating, you've only got minutes to impress.
Does anyone have a party trick that they...?
Mine's balloon animals. Mine's literally a party trick.
Just moments to shine.
I can do, like, the cherry tie knot thing in your mouth. Oh!
I've got a strange thumb.
Oh, wow!
So, like, if I want to give a thumbs up, it's like this.
When romance is on the line, anything goes.
(IMITATES COW MOOING)
I'm gonna be the girl that moos. OK.
Nice to meet you too.
So I manage a kid's entertainment company.
Oh wow, OK. Yeah. A dog for you. Thank you.
I'm a little worried I might have blown it!
OK, I'm in the hot seat. Go.
You said something about a chicken impersonation.
Oh, my gosh! I can do chicken noises.
I'm working on the horses.
Almonds don't make noises, so I'm clear there.
Can I do it behind a pillow?
Sure.
OK.
(IMITATES CHICKEN CLUCKING)
There you go.
That is so good.
# Birds are singing love songs with a sunrise
# Feeling so light
# I've never seen the sky so blue. #
I'm feeling really, really keen
to meet Farmer Zac, we seem to have really similar values.
We really like to do the same things and he's really community minded.
Hi! Hello, hello, hello.
How are you doing?
I'm good. How are you?
I'm definitely a bit of a Type-A personality.
I'm very organised and I do like to be in control.
So I'm gonna just fire off a few questions.
I hope he can handle it.
He seems like he can.
That looks scary. Just doing a little report?
Oh, no. Just got a couple questions.
Just a couple questions! Are you up for it?
Yeah, I'll give it a crack. I'll give it a crack.
OK, ready? Serious. Very serious.
Red or green apples?
Red.
Yes, OK. Cocktail?
But... Oh.
Green's good for cooking. OK.
Cocktail of choice?
Uh, espresso martini.
I knew you were one of the girls. Alright.
Why not? Nothing wrong with that.
Favourite chocolate in a box of Favourites?
I actually like a Moro. It's a bit weird.
That's rogue. I don't know. I'm a bit suspicious now.
This conversation's gone.
AFL team? Geelong.
Geelong.
What about you?
Lions.
That's the worst team it could have been.
Just beat us in a grand final.
Should I go? Might have to.
Grace is so much fun.
Joked around, um...
Yeah, I loved it. It's brilliant.
So yeah. So what do you get up to? You're in Queensland?
Yes. I'm in Mackay now, but I was in Brisbane for four years before that.
And then Perth before that.
So speaking of moving... Yeah.
Is it on the plates or...?
Oh, it's so on the cards.
I'm so sick of Mackay.
# Every breath that we take
# I hold you closer to me. #
Grace is definitely my type, and open and honest about herself.
And just, like, naturally beautiful.
That was so easy going. It's so much easier.
Oh. Alright, well, good luck with the rest, and I'll see you later.
I'll see you around. Lovely to meet you.
(EXHALES)
Well, that was great.
Oh, god.
I'm gonna fall apart.
This is gonna ruin me, or I'm gonna find the one.
# You touch my cheek, on fire I'll crumble in your hands. #
Hey. Hey, how you going?
Love your dress.
For me, family's number one.
I really want someone that's family orientated as well, and I'm looking
to build a solid family unit.
It's important to me and I think it would be really good for my kids.
I hear that you've got two beautiful boys.
I do. Yeah.
So 12 year old and a 9 year old. So...
So I'm a teacher and I actually teach that age group.
I work in disability, so I'm a case manager for people with disability.
And I'm doing my master's in primary school teaching.
Oh, cool. We've got plenty of work for teachers out where we are.
So yeah. Being a dad, my boys are my priority.
But if I was to find that special person, they would be,
you know, equally as important.
Take care.
Alright, girls, I think it's my time to shine.
I'll be back. Good luck!
# Kiss me
# Tell me that you miss me
# Tell me you're addicted
# To me. #
I'm so excited to meet Farmer Jarrad.
He is so good looking.
Hello. Hello. How are you going? Good.
It's been a long day for you, hasn't it?
It has. It's so lovely to meet you.
I'm a paralegal, so I'm very competitive.
I'm dealing with competition all the time, so I am confident
that I'll be able to win over Farmer Jarrad.
I got you a little something. Oh, aren't you sweet?
This is to help you remember me later.
OK.
When you're deciding on who to take to the farm.
OK, that's very strategic.
Oh, wow, yum! You like chocolate?
I love chocolate.
We look... We look good together, I love it.
Tara is a very attractive lady.
I think initially, when I first saw her profile,
I thought she might be a little bit too career focused.
And that might be an issue with moving to a regional area.
Um, I've got a question just around your career and stuff like
how are you going to go moving out, you know, to the farm?
I am ready to get out of the office.
OK. I kind of have the mindset that I don't want my partner and I
to have different jobs where we go to work, and we don't see each
other for eight hours a day.
I would rather build something together.
OK. That's cool.
I felt some sparks between me and Farmer Jarrad.
He's an attractive man, so I'm ready to take on the other girls.
I did want to talk to you about your kids.
OK. We both have kids.
Yeah. Boys as well.
Yeah. Boys.
I noticed that the other girls, they don't have any kids.
That's right. Yeah. You're the only...only mum.
Yeah. I was a bit shocked by that.
OK.
I do think the fact that Farmer Jarrad and I both have kids
does give me a little bit of an edge.
So I guess we've got something that we can relate to.
Definitely got that in common.
I'm pretty confident that I'll be going back to the farm.
Well, thanks for the present. That's OK.
If you need help eating that later, I'll be...
Yeah! I'll never say no to chocolate.
Save me some. Thank you so much.
Lovely to see you. So nice to meet you.
Yeah. Tara ticks a lot of boxes, but because I've got to make
a decision soon on five girls to bring back to the farm,
I just don't know if she's the right one for me yet.
NATALIE: Next, the choices that could change our farmers' lives.
Absolutely, he'd be making a mistake not picking me.
I know I'll be hurting some lady's feelings.
And one lady will be invited back to the farm first,
for a 24-hour solo date.
It looks beautiful.
It's been the most perfect day today.
It's precious time alone...
I got you a little something.
How's that? They go alright.
Can't wait to hang out with you a bit more.
..that will lead to the first kiss.
# You make me complete. #
Yeah. I've got a pretty serious question to ask you.
Um, it's really important.
Bit of a deal breaker for me.
I know you're into your footy. What team do you support?
I go for Geelong.
OK. North Melbourne supporter.
I was gonna say you're giving off those vibes.
What! Nah!
NATALIE: It's been a big day for our farmers,
who've each met eight hopeful ladies.
Can I hug you?
Yeah, of course.
I mean, I was trying to flirt a little with Farmer Jarrad.
Sorry, what'd you just say?
I said your smile was amazing.
Oh, I just want to hear it twice.
For my work, I'm a flight attendant.
Oh, brilliant. What have we got?
Welcome on board this fun and bubbly Chelsea express flight.
Now sit back and relax.
And who knows, you might just fall for more than the view.
And as the dates draw to a close, our farmers have
some big decisions to make.
Who do they feel a spark with?
And which five ladies will they invite back to the farm?
It's going to be a really tough decision
because they're all very lovely and they tick a lot of boxes.
Having kids, the stakes are naturally a little bit higher.
I want to find someone that wants to be part of the family,
I think it's really important.
I feel like I had a great speed date with every single one of them.
It's genuinely going to be, like, such a hard decision going forward
with hopefully one of these ladies being that, um, love of my life.
So...
I just know the fact that I'll be letting three of the girls down.
There's no nice way of saying it.
Welcome, ladies.
How was your day with Zac?
Good. Amazing.
Anyone felt like they might have met their future husband?
Potentially. Hopefully.
I'm sure they all had great dates, but I don't really
compare myself to any of them.
So would you normally go for a guy like me?
Yeah, you're tall... Actually, you're exactly my type.
Good for them if they had a good date.
Mine was better.
Alright, ladies, shall we bring him in?
Farmer Zac.
Yes.
I bet you never thought you would be doing anything
like this in your life.
I never thought I'd ever be this nervous, but I am.
It sounds cliche, but it is actually honestly been one of the hardest
decisions I've had to make.
There's definitely so much pressure.
I know I'll be hurting some ladies feelings.
Do you want a big hug?
Oh, please.
Oh, yeah! Aw!
So anxious and nervous.
I'm here to find that special person.
The pressure is really on to make that right decision.
Zac, who is the first lady you'd like to invite back to the farm?
The fear of rejection is definitely there.
But with Farmer Zac, I do feel a connection and a spark.
If I had to guess your love language, Zac, you kind of do give,
like, golden retriever energy.
In the best way!
I love golden retrievers.
I can see a potential future with him.
So that's why I'm excited to develop that, I guess.
I think I'm in with a chance because I just felt so comfortable
and confident with it today.
Cocktail of choice?
Espresso martini.
I knew you were one of the girls. Alright.
I've just got to trust that it was enough.
So this first lady, she had me on the back foot early
with a lot of questions.
It was a fun experience. Wondering if...
Grace, you'd like to come back to the farm with me?
Yes, thank you.
Thanks.
Grace, how are you feeling?
Oh, I feel like I could cry.
Sorry. But I won't, because then everyone will cry.
So, yeah, I feel... Happy tears?
Yeah!
OK. Zac, who would you like to invite next?
Yeah. So this next lovely lady...
I was wondering if, Jessica, you'd like to come
back to the farm with me.
Two down, three to go.
Yeah. This next lady, when she came in, just made me
feel as comfortable as ever.
So... Maya, would you like to come back to the farm?
Of course.
Yes? Yes.
Of course. Thank you.
OK, Zac, there are only two positions left.
Yeah.
Two left. It's definitely not enough. Um...
Yeah, I would definitely be a bit surprised if I wasn't picked,
but, I mean, that's his loss.
She would absolutely have no issues whatsoever fitting in with
my community, my family, my friends.
Going back to the farm means everything to me.
I've sacrificed a lot to be here.
I quit my job to come and see you.
You did not!
I really did.
There's a lot riding on it for me.
Miranda, would you like to come back to the farm?
I would love to.
It's so hard choosing the right person.
I hope I'm making the right decision.
It was a tough one, that's for sure.
Miranda.
Yeah. I'm really excited.
You might have a farmhand.
It will be... Don't go that far.
This is it. Yeah.
One last lady.
Yeah.
Last one. Um, definitely got a connection, um,
that I'm wanting to explore.
I really, really, really want to go back to the farm.
I haven't wanted something this much in a long time.
And yeah, I think it'd be a missed opportunity if...
..I didn't ask Meike if she wanted to come back to the farm.
I'd love to.
I'm shaking.
Are you?
Yeah, I'm really happy though. Pretty special guy.
I have to agree.
We're all agreeing on that.
Definitely. Definitely.
OK, ladies, I know this is not easy, but we thank you
for being here today.
I'm so sorry.
You gotta put yourself first.
I just wish you all the best with everything going on.
Just...thank you.
All good. All good.
Thank you, ladies.
Thank you. So lovely to meet you and we wish you
all the very best. You too. Thank you.
Not to be picked definitely did hurt.
Anyone that has left tonight would be going through the exact same.
I'm just happy for everyone, as upsetting as it is still.
It's now Farmer Jarrad's turn to decide which five ladies
he'll invite back to his farm.
You girls look so stunning.
Big day, everyone.
Yeah.
Jarrad is a bit of a catch, isn't he?
ALL: Yes. Very much.
Shall we bring him in?
Yes. Let's do it.
I'm a single dad.
I've got two boys, and it would be really good to have
someone to share that with.
I really want someone nurturing and caring
and loving sort of natured.
Can only take five back to the farm, so it's going to be
a really tough decision.
Farmer Jarrad, how did today's dates go?
Really well. Um, yeah, I had really great connections
with a lot of the girls.
I feel very lucky, actually.
Trying to balance between the head and the heart a bit.
And yeah.
Which makes it so much harder for you.
I would love to end up with Farmer Jarrad after this.
I hope I came across as genuine and that I'm
really serious about this.
And you're a nurse?
I am a nurse, I work in IVF, so yeah,
help make babies.
OK, great. That's an important job.
Yeah, it is.
So only five ladies will be heading back to the farm with you.
Who would you like to invite back to the farm first?
I'm here for real, genuine reasons.
Hearing farmer Jarrad talk about his kids was actually
really important to me.
I know that I've got a lot to offer, and I really want him to see that.
OK, so the first lady
I'd like to come back to the farm with me...
I was just blown away, and she's got a really kind heart.
And I could see that from the start.
So the first lady I'd like to bring back is...
..Carly.
Carly, you obviously made an impact.
I'm very relieved.
Jarrad, who is the next lady you feel you have a spark with?
In comparison to the other girls,
I feel like there could be some sparks.
Yeah. I'm doing my master's in primary school teaching.
We've got plenty of work for teachers out where we are.
So, yeah.
My hands are so sweaty.
..I'd like to invite back to the farm, she just made me
feel really comfortable...
Um, so the next girl I'd like to invite back is Yvonne.
I'm so ready to leave the city.
Ready to put my overalls on and get to work.
Go pick some almonds, yeah!
The next lady I'd like to bring back is...
..Georgia.
Jarrad, there are only two positions left.
This is a very tough decision.
It's incredibly difficult.
I'm looking for someone I'm going to spend the rest of
my life with, potentially.
So I don't want to make the wrong decision
and send the wrong person home.
OK, so the next girl I'd like to invite,
I felt really safe and comfortable with her.
And this girl I'd like to bring back is Brody.
Jarrad, who is the final lady you'll be inviting back to the farm?
I am still hopeful that Farmer Jarrad will pick me,
but I don't know. If I didn't make a good chicken noise,
I don't know, I don't know!
So this is, like, a really hard decision.
I just had to go with my gut and what I think is
going to be best long term.
It's hard putting yourself out there for someone and then being rejected.
It's been a big build up to get here and just to be dumped
before you even get there and get to make a full impression,
it's going to be hard. I am not ready to go home.
I really want to invite back Cara to the farm.
Good bunch of girls. Yeah.
Sorry, girls.
I would have liked everyone to come back, but...
Best of luck. Thank you.
Sorry.
All the best. No, it's all cool.
Thanks. Cheers.
What may have persuaded Jarrad's actions into not selecting me
could have possibly been because I didn't have any of that motherly
chat with him in the speed date.
It wasn't meant to be.
I'm not going to tease it out and ponder why and why not me.
I think that Farmer Jarrad made his choice, and he'll have to live with
that for the rest of his life.
NATALIE: Up next...
My farm is just over this hill here.
..who will be chosen to head back to the farm
a full 24 hours before the others?
Definitely the first time I've cooked an apple crumble for a girl.
And inscribed on that is a love heart.
For a head start on love.
That's what we got going on.
Oh my goodness!
A little bit flashy. (EXCLAIMS) Look what we've got here!
NATALIE: All five farmers have now chosen potential life partners
to take back to their farms.
I've come here to find a partner, someone that I'm going to be happy
to spend the rest of my life with.
I'm looking for compatibility in the way that we converse
and the way that we spend time together.
I'm looking for a best mate and a partner.
A lot of my time is spent chasing rodeos, and I really want to share
that with my own cowgirl.
I'm very family orientated.
I love being a dad.
I'm looking for someone to move to the farm.
I've always wanted a family lifestyle.
Come home to the wife and kids.
Yeah, just want to share my life with someone.
With their favourite ladies chosen,
they've now got another difficult decision to make.
This is it. This is actually it.
They're about to invite just one of those ladies home first
for a 24-hour solo date.
I feel like I've got a really great group of girls there.
Yeah, definitely felt that connection with few of them,
which is scary. Yeah.
So I don't know how I'm gonna make a decision. Tough job on your hand.
It's all getting real now.
The potential of my wife being here is very real.
It could be one of these women.
So it is a, is a big decision.
Very soon, you'll all be heading back to the farms for the beginning
of a very fun adventure.
But first, I'm going to give you a head start
getting to know just one of these ladies.
You're going to choose one lady to head back to the farm
a full 24 hours ahead of anyone else.
So this is an important opportunity for you to create a special bond
alone without any distractions.
OK, so first up is Farmer Zac.
How are you feeling right now?
Oh, definitely less nervous.
Definitely really getting excited now to see how
we all go from here. So yeah.
Absolutely, he'd be making a mistake not picking me.
Straight off the bat, I think the connection was there.
So there's a lot more to offer.
This lovely lady that I I'll be inviting back
definitely ticked a lot of boxes during our first time
seeing each other.
We had that great banter.
The conversation flowed.
I'm really excited. So...
Um...
Thanks!
I'll come.
(APPLAUSE)
(LAUGHS)
I guess at the end of the day,
it's not who's getting the first 24 hours.
It's who's with him for the last.
So as long as that's me, I'm happy.
Next up, Farmer Jarrad.
This lady, she's got an absolute heart of gold.
The date was just effortless.
I really will be upset if I'm not chosen.
I'm way better one-on-one,
not in a group situation.
So I feel like that would be really important for me to have that.
Yeah, I just felt really comfortable.
So I want to explore that some more.
And yeah, I'm excited.
I think we're gonna have fun.
I do really want this solo date.
I definitely would get an advantage.
24 hours, it could make or break, really.
So the girl that I choose...
..is Carly.
Thank you.
(APPLAUSE)
I definitely felt that buzz and the connection there straight away.
So, 24-hour date could be start of something big with Jarrad and I.
OK, up next, Farmer Alex.
How are you feeling?
My heart's pounding, but, um, excited. Happy to be here.
That's a good sign.
I've never had to make a decision like this before.
My future wife could be in the room, and I'm feeling
promising about all of them.
Eddy's got a brightness about her.
We'll have no issues finding anything to talk about.
She's an interesting person and keen to riff a bit with her.
I'm still like three minutes from the pin
and I still get the 24-hour date.
Gabby, yeah, I felt really comfortable around her and I think
we got to a level of comfort pretty quickly too.
This is yours to keep.
Oh, cheers. I've got a little collection of Penguin Classics.
Yeah, it's my copy. I've had it for ages.
The lady I'm going to be inviting back to the farm is someone
who had such electricity, the entire time through the date.
The lady I'm going to invite is...
a golfer.
Do you want come back to the farm with me?
Yeah, I'd love to.
(APPLAUSE)
Did you find this?
I took it.
I'm so bloody stoked that Alex chose me for the 24-hour date.
I can't skip.
I feel we're at the fun, playful surface level at the moment, and now
we get to spend the next 24 hours
really getting to know each other.
Now, Farmer Dylan, how are you feeling?
I'm feeling good. I'm feeling confident.
I'm glad I've...
I'm able to take my ladies back and they can see the real me
when I'm not a nervous wreck.
So that's always a good start.
So I'm...
I'm really looking forward to the experience. Yeah.
This lady took me as a total wild card.
Like, just came out of nowhere and got me pretty good.
So I, I'm really looking forward to see how she fits in on the farm.
Having that 24-hour date with Farmer Dylan would be absolutely amazing.
I still have that really deep feeling that this is meant to be.
I made you a little gift.
My favourite hobby to do is crocheting. Oh, really?
I crocheted you something. Oh, bloody oath.
That's wicked, thank you. I hope you like it.
What, you made this?
Yeah.
What! Did you make that? I did.
I would love to go on the 24-hour date, for sure.
I think that there is a lot I would like to get to know about Dylan.
I actually live with my grandmother.
Granny Annie is her name.
That's cool. Anyone who knows me knows Granny Annie.
We're like two little besties living together. Little roommates!
Yeah.
I would really love to get to know his character on a deeper level.
Ally, would you be keen to come back?
Yes!
I thought Dylan was going to pick Renae, as I know that they
had a really good connection.
The moment when he picked me, I was dissociating.
Next thing you know, freakin' Dylan's right there.
I was like, oh my god!
I'm excited.
It would be nice if this was the beginning of a love story.
And finally, Farmer Jason.
Looking forward to the 24-hour date?
Yeah, I'm looking forward to obviously get to know this person
a bit better from our speed date.
So yeah, I'm excited.
It has been hard tossing up between Poppy and Beth.
Beth says she wants kids.
You've got one... Yeah, I've got a little girl.
How old is she?
She is six.
She said I have to come home with a baby brother.
She could get a job anywhere, being a vet.
So there's obviously a lot of positives there.
Poppy, like, she's obviously gorgeous.
She did mention that she didn't want to have any kids herself.
I never saw myself with children,
but I'm very open to being a stepmum.
Yeah, I've always sort of wanted to have more kids
and I'm half thinking, can I convince her to have a kid?
But how would I do that?
OK, well, who is this special lady?
Um, yeah, I think we had a great time on our date.
We had a lot of things in common, and I wanted the date to go longer.
So the lady I'm going to bring back to the farm is...
..Beth...
Do you want to come back to the farm? Yes, please.
(APPLAUSE)
I am just completely shocked that he even picked me for the 24-hour date.
I'm so excited.
I'm very hopeful that this is the start of
something really awesome.
NATALIE: Up next...
Ooh!
Oh my god, yum!
How will the city girls survive on the land?
I can see a lot from up here. This is nice.
And... You ready?
Yeah, I'm ready.
Oh my goodness!
the dates heat up...
Can't wait to hang out with you a bit more.
But who will make the first move?
Do you mind if I kiss you?
# Take it far as we can go
# Headed down the open road. #
What do you think of the hills?
It's really hilly.
Like, for real. The hills are hilly.
The hills are hilly.
NATALIE: Our five farmers are heading back to farms across the country.
This is the street my farm's on.
It's where they'll open their homes,
and hopefully their hearts, to their ladies.
This is the ferry. So it runs 24/7.
Yeah. This is how we get from the farm to back into town.
They have 24 hours to deepen their connections
before the other ladies turn up.
Oh, look at that!
Are those your sheep?
Yeah, that's some of them. Oh my goodness.
Look at them!
It's beautiful up here.
My farm's just over this hill here.
OK, awesome.
That's all usually peanuts.
Peanuts. I haven't been able to see the big peanut yet.
I think it's going to be highlight of the trip.
Highlight of the trip!
Yeah.
(BLEEP) number two already?
Number two.
Hey, boys. Wanna meet Eddy?
This is, um, Melusi, Kelpie and Oscar.
Oscar.
This is Beth, Benji. Hi, Benji. Hello. Thank you.
How do you feel about Benji getting the first kiss?
Jealous. Jealous?
That's it. It's great to be home and show Beth the farm.
Come on, Betsy, Lily. Lily. Oh, you have to call a cow Lily.
My son's not here at the moment.
He's staying with his grandma so we can have some nice time alone.
I think they're very pretty.
You've got very nice cows. Very nice cows.
Even my roses are flowering for you. Beautiful.
How good is that? The timing. Come in.
Come on in.
The kitchen. Oh my god. Coffee machine.
Thank god!
And it's got a frother. Yeah.
More importantly. I'm gonna,
I'm gonna live.
Tucked away in the beautiful Adelaide Hills is Cherry Gardens,
where rodeo rider farmer, Dylan, developed his passion for horses.
This is Billy Bob.
Billy Bob!
He's my best mate.
He's like my, um...
Whenever I'm upset or feeling sad or something, I go for a ride on him.
He makes me feel just right.
Clears your mind?
I love him to pieces.
And Farmer Dylan's not wasting any time finding out
if city girl, Ally, can share his cowboy lifestyle.
You ridden much before?
I haven't ridden since primary school.
So it's been over ten years. Yeah. Yeah.
Dylan's so sweet.
Yeah, definitely a gentleman.
Dylan makes me feel very, very safe, which is essential.
Um, something I'm looking for in a partner.
Yeah, this is my bronc riding helmet,
so you should be right, I reckon.
No way! Have to readjust it.
Yeah... Do you have a big head?
I got a real big head.
I've got a real big head, too.
You look real pretty.
I don't want to get your hair stuck in it.
Oh, it doesn't matter.
So if you can, put your foot in there.
OK, you ready to jump? Yeah, 3, 2, 1, go!
Oh, look at you go.
Yeeha. Well, he's strong when he hoisted me up, that's for sure.
I can see a lot from up here.
Yeah. It's nice!
Seeing Ally sitting up on Billy Bob,
and it just felt right. Where we're going,
you'll be going downhill, so kind of try and lean back a bit.
OK.
When we start going downhill. The fact that she's keen to learn
as well, like, that means a lot to me.
If you don't want to learn to be a part of this world,
it's going to be dead hard for it to work.
Yeeha!
In the town of Kin Kin, in the Noosa Shire of Queensland,
Farmer Alex produces a mix of beef, cattle and mushrooms, and he's keen
to show Eddy the world he's built.
The cattle yards are out there, the cattle are all
out there at the moment.
Property sort of goes about three Ks that way.
We'll see all that soon. Yeah.
I'm actually pretty keen to see the mushrooms.
Wanna see the mushies? Yeah. Put me to work.
I've got work boots on. I'm ready to rip.
Farming's a huge part of my life.
It's all of me in a lot of ways.
And so I really need my partner to be, at the very least,
interested in what we do here.
Oh, sick!
Yeah.
That's actually so cool.
So these ones... So they push out of the bags?
Do they? Or did you make, do you make them a little
cut and then they grow out?
Yeah. They build massive clusters.
They form these big clusters, and then we just peel them off.
So wait, when you harvest these, do you just, like pull them off
and then more keep going out.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It feels really nice with Ed.
She's just got the most phenomenal eyes.
I can't look at her for longer than, like,
three seconds before I, you know...
Do you want a flower?
Yeah.
There's a little flower for you. It's like a little toadstool.
Put it in your pocket. I'll put it behind my ear.
Yeah.
It was really nice listening to him talk about mushrooms
because he's so passionate.
He makes really meaningful eye contact as well.
Makes me feel a little bit... unnerved, I guess maybe,
I don't know, just like, oh, that feeling.
I like it in here, actually.
Do you like apples?
I do, I do.
How's that? I can't even remember how long it's been
since I've been on a first date.
So yeah, pretty nerve wracking.
(MUSIC)
Ooh! Oh my god, yum.
(MUMBLES)
I'm definitely a little rusty,
I guess, when it comes to wooing a girl.
I'll try to make some first moves, but there's no guarantee.
While Grace enjoys her first taste of farm life with Farmer Zac,
she's hoping to build some romance
before the other ladies arrive tomorrow.
I think it's raining.
Yeah. I'll go grab us an umbrella.
Amazing. I'll be back in a sec.
Bye!
(LAUGHTER)
Need another umbrellas!
It would be very nice to, of course, get a little kiss tonight,
but I just can't read Zac.
It's feeling a little bit bros at the moment.
Oh! Quick, quick, quick!
It's coming down. It'd just like affirm
whether or not we have that romantic sort of connection
versus just like a friends kind of vibe.
Oh my god.
OK, OK. OK, OK.
Up next...
Hi! Welcome to the farm!
Farmer Dylan goes all out.
They mean the world to me.
So having the right lady meet them, if they hit it off,
like, that'll tick just another box.
As he opens up his life to love.
That looks buggered, aye. All the feelings are there.
I think I just want to delve deeper into her life.
Maybe a little kiss if he wants to.
That one's so cute!
You can almost, like, keep one in your beard.
NATALIE: Across the country,
our farmers are spending the day with the women
they chose to bring home first.
It's still early days, but I feel like there might be a little bit
of chemistry forming there. Yeah, for sure.
Two of the most important people in Farmer Dylan's life
are his grandparents, who live just down the road.
You right? Yep.
Thank you.
No worries. My nan, Kay, and my grandpa Bob,
they mean the world to me.
So having the right lady meet them, if they hit it off,
like, that'll tick just another box.
And she's been good at ticking boxes today, so yeah.
Hi! Welcome to the farm!
Lovely to meet you.
You too.
I am so excited to meet Nana Kay.
It's going to be like meeting a celebrity.
Nana Kay! Oh, lovely to see you.
I think the girls are going to love Dylan.
I get a bit worried about the fact that he's going to
probably break a few hearts.
He's a really nice lad.
You've got the best view of the place.
We do. It's so beautiful.
I've never been to Adelaide before. Ever.
Oh. Really?This is my first time.
I'm loving it so far.
So did you enjoy with Dylan and riding with Dylan?
Yes, I did!
Yeah, she did alright.
Yeah. No, she did good.
Dylan's a good teacher. Oh, good.
He had a good teacher. Oh, yes!
Because you taught him! Yes.
So what made you come on to Farmer Wants A Wife?
I guess you could say I was looking for something serious.
I'm not one to muck around.
Um, and then saw Dylan's picture, and I...
What attracted you to Dylan?
Well, Dylan's got a bit of a cheeky grin.
Goes with the disposition.
Introducing Ally to my grandparents was really important to me.
She can hold a conversation pretty well
and she knows how to yap.
And I really, I really appreciate that.
And...and, uh, no, she, she killed it.
Like, she did real good. And...
No, I'm so stoked. Yeah.
It was lovely to meet you.
It was so lovely to meet you.
I thought she was very good. She was very outgoing
and friendly and... Happy. Yeah.
Happy girl.
See you later. Lovely to meet you.
Seems to be some sort of relationship between the pair of 'em,
which is good to see.
Yeah, I think Dylan's, you know, quite happy. A bit smitten.
Yeah.
NATALIE: Now they've introduced the ladies to the life they love,
the pressure is on for our farmers to dial up the romance.
And the ladies know tonight's their last chance to forge deeper
connections with their farmers.
Before the rest of the women turn up in the morning.
In Forest Range, South Australia,
an anxious Farmer Zac's
counting on his home made apple crumble
to sweeten the evening with Grace.
Yeah, a bit of a mixed emotions going into this.
It's exciting. It's scary.
Definitely the first time I've cooked an apple crumble for a girl.
Inscribed on that is a love heart.
I love being romantic.
I like spoiling someone and making them feel special and happy.
But it's just me as a person.
I just struggle to...
It's always in the back of my head.
Just that fear of rejection.
And I don't want to make a fool of myself.
Here we are. Oh my god, it's so lovely. Amazing.
Yeah, not too bad.
Not too bad at all.
I definitely want to ask Farmer Zac some slightly deeper questions.
To affirm whether or not we have that romantic sort of connection
versus just like a friends kind of vibe.
We can get into the apple crumble. Oh, do you want to?
Yeah, we can absolutely.
Wanna try it now? Yeah.
I'm worried it's gonna get cold.
OK.
How are we doing this?
I'm a bit worried about this.
I'm very worried.
OK, ready? Yeah.
That's good!
It's very appley.
It's yummy, OK? Leave me alone. I'm not a food critic.
It's, I think it's passable.
It's definitely passable.
Something I'm really curious about is, like, a timeline, I guess.
Yeah, right.
For a family and things like that. Yeah.
And if that's something you're wanting and, like, when?
So, like, I can share first, if that's easier for you,
or you can go and...
We can do it at the same time.
One, two... No, kidding, kidding.
Um, it's something I could definitely see. Like, 29,
28, 29, 30.
I think that's, I always said I wanted kids at, like, 30.
Yeah.
When I sort of got life sorted and... OK.
That's a huge relief.
Yeah. Sorry.
OK. Oh, I'm so relieved. Yeah.
There you go. Yeah.
Would it have been a deal breaker if I said... Absolutely.
If you were like, "I want kids in the next, like,
two or three years," I would have been like...
You're like, yeah, have fun with that.
Catch you later.
Go for it with someone else. Nah.
It's really refreshing to have someone who, like,
knows what they want, I guess.
But like, you know yourself, you know what you like,
you've got, like, an idea of what your future wants to be.
And like, it's nice. Just no-one to spend it with!
Aw!
To be honest, I haven't been able to talk to someone about...
Yeah, all those important things. Yeah.
It's been a while since I've talked to someone properly like that.
Obviously, we get on really well.
I kind of want to make sure we're not just like a friend vibes.
'Cause I do, like...
Yeah, like you and I do, like, see this...
Yeah.
Um, so I want to make sure you're on the same page.
Nah, nah...
Just friends. Nah! OK.
Nah, I'm definitely on the same page.
It's been one of those things. Yeah, yeah.
Obviously, it's, like, super weird.
I've always just struggled to show...
Yeah.
..maybe affection, when it comes to someone new.
Um, and making that first move.
If it's just, like, it's just like so unnatural.
I know, it's very stressful.
So, yeah.
Do you mind if I kiss you?
Mind if I kiss you?
# Stay with me
# Hold me closer
# Be with me... #
Weird and unnatural. (LAUGHS) Very weird and unnatural.
I still liked it, though. Yeah.
Yeah. Grace made the first move, but, um...
Yeah, I'm glad she did.
It's been a while since I've had my first kiss with someone
in a fair while, so... yeah.
Yeah.
Not much to say.
Face shows it all.
In Queensland, the rain is pelting down.
And the power's out at the farmhouse.
It's hard work being a romantic.
But Farmer Jason's not letting that dampen a romantic night with Beth.
Jason and I are both single parents.
And tonight, I really need to sort of nail down a few of the harder
nitty gritty stuff, navigate exes and things like that.
And we're both really similar in that regard.
I think the major issue I've had is dating single mums,
they can't move for custody reasons, which is quite understandable.
Being a mum, I hope Beth can move to the farm some day.
Yeah. Unfortunately, with the weather, I've had to...
I've had to move our date inside, so I hope that's alright.
It looks beautiful.
I'm very impressed.
You look amazing, by the way.
Thank you.
You look very nice yourself.
Oh, beer.
Don't mind if I do.
A little cheers. Cheers.
I appreciate this.
It's lovely.
It's nice that you were able to change your plans
at the last minute.
Hey, I'm pretty adaptable.
I can... Tick.
Tick? Tick.
Absolutely. And look at the cheese board as well.
Didn't know you had it in you!
Yeah. Uh, I've been taught a few things.
You can do the first taste test.
That is a whopping amount of cheese as well.
Holy shit. Thank you.
I'm not sure there's any sexy way to eat cheese and a cracker.
I'm really sorry.
Mm. Bloody good though. Good job.
Ah, I guess we touched on it a little bit earlier...
Exes, I suppose.
Jesus.
Jesus. Big conversation.
Um, do you have much to do with them?
Um, with my son's mum,
she's not sort of around at the at the moment. So, um...
Yeah. So it's unfortunate but it is what it is. But...
He lives a great life here and he's, he seems happy, so yeah.
What about, um, what about you?
Yeah.
Yeah. I'm pretty lucky to have a pretty good relationship
with my daughter's dad, to be completely honest with you.
Um, I think he just decided at some point in the past
that she's probably better off, like, with me most of the time.
So we just kind of do our own thing.
I know you had some reservations, like obviously
in the past, hard to get women to move out here to the farm.
Yeah.
And I just want to let you know that there's nothing really holding
me back from coming out here.
You're like, no, go away.
That's been one of my major things, trying to date people,
and she's keen to do all of that.
It's comforting. And, uh, yeah, I feel really good.
Yeah. Can't wait to hang out with you a bit more.
Are you gonna hang out with me more?
If you let me.
Mm...
Maybe. Maybe? Maybe.
# Take it
# If she gives you her heart
# Don't you break it
# Let your arms be a place she feels safe in
# The best thing that you'll ever have... #
Pretty good. Pretty good. Give it a nine out of ten.
Nine out of ten!
Room for improvement.
It was pretty unreal to feel that after such a long time.
I quite like you. I'm surprised.
Surprised? Yeah, I am.
Yeah. Just want to do it a little bit more.
I think I like you a little bit.
Little bit? Just that much.
How do you get to that much?
It's so nice.
Packed a little picnic.
Hope you're hungry.
Yeah.
I'm feeling a little bit nervous about my date tonight
with Jarrad, because I think I am starting to like him.
And, yeah, it feels real.
Bubbles. (POP)
Super excited to finally be here for the date night with Carly.
We've had a great day.
It's been really fun and easy.
Moment of truth. What do you reckon?
And it's actually, like... Healthy?
Healthy, like, yeah.
It just seems so natural. And yeah.
Excited to get to know her some more.
So cheers.
How do you think you'd go sort of living on the farm?
Like, I mean, it's, it's not, it's not Wollongong.
It's not, like, by the beach, but...
No, but I feel like it's just about being in nature.
And, you know, I do really love, like, being in the outdoors
and just peaceful, quiet places,
I just feel like I thrive. Yeah.
I think you would, too.
Yeah. Yeah. Good.
I'm glad you can see that.
No, it's, um...
Yeah, it's just really nice seeing you,
like, in your place, in your element.
What's your feeling around kids and family and like,
what do you want for the future?
What's your, your timeline?
Have you got a timeline around that?
Obviously I'm a dad. I've got two boys at the moment.
Like, what are you looking for?
There's a few questions in there. Geez, really gone right in!
Um, yeah. You know, like, I love kids.
Um, I kind of always thought I would end up with someone that had kids.
I don't know, I just feel like it kind of comes naturally to me.
I'm quite a caring person.
Um, I feel like, you know, the work I do has given me a real,
really realistic expectation around family and kids.
Yeah.
Um, it would be nice, but I definitely wouldn't be here
or like, waste your time if that wasn't a big consideration.
Like, obviously it's a big thing to kind of take on.
Yeah, definitely.
Being, like, involved in kids' lives...
Yeah. No, it sounds like we're on the same page.
We want the same things. Yeah.
Feel like we get each other. It's really lovely.
Yeah. Good. I'm glad.
Yeah.
Oh.
I might actually put a little bit more wood on the fire.
That's better. That's better.
Cosy.
What was the highlight of your day?
Oh, definitely...
bringing you over to the farm and...
yeah, just spending time with you, really.
It was the highlight for sure.
You?
Coming to the farm?
Yeah. Coming to the farm.
Yeah. This is pretty nice.
Yeah, this is nice.
Yeah, it's good company.
Yeah.
Good view. Good view.
It's good to see the sparks there.
Yeah.
# Open up my heart, just let you in like I want to
# If I could take a chance on you... #
I feel like Jarrad's really different to city guys I've dated.
He's really kind and caring, And he's a real gentleman.
Are you feeling warm now?
Heaps warmer.
I get the first kiss and yeah, hopefully I get the last one too.
I'm stoked that you brought me back here first. Yeah.
I'm glad I did, too.
Nice to have that time with you.
Yeah. I'm so glad that I picked Carly, like, she is a quieter,
sort of more reserved type person.
I've got a great connection with her.
She's very special.
# If I could take a chance... #
It's getting cold, though, isn't it?
# ..On you. #
Bring that fire a bit closer.
In Cherry Gardens, rodeo rider Dylan has dusted off the boots
to surprise Ally with a cosy night under the stars.
I have no idea what Dylan's got planned for me tonight.
I'm completely in the dark about it,
but maybe a little kiss, if he wants to.
You ready? Yeah, I'm ready.
Alrighty. That's, uh, that's what we got going on.
Oh my goodness!
(SQUEALS) Look at behind here!
Wow!
Oh my gosh.
A good bonfire.
There's a jacket there for you.
Oh! I'll put this one on because I'm actually pretty cold.
I've definitely got a crush on Ally.
I think that's quite prominent.
All the feelings are there.
I'd like to kind of get to more to know about her.
I feel like I just kind of spoke about myself today, and I think
I just want to delve deeper into her life.
Alright? Let's have some hot chocolate.
Yeah. What's that?
There's a black bit in there.
Do you mind if I put my finger in your cup?
Actually, I'll have this one, aye.
Put your finger in whatever.
I'll get your, um, stick sorted.
Do you mind if I touch it?
You can touch my stick.
That's fine. That's...
You have my permission.
OK. How's that? That go alright?
Yeah. That's perfect.
Is this how you like yours as well?
Yeah, buggered. Buggered?
Yep.
OK, cheers.
What's your, like, biggest fear?
Like a deep fear?
Yeah.
Yeah. Um, my deepest, deepest fear would be infertility.
Yeah, right.
Yeah. Something I really badly want to experience
is having my own children,
having pregnancy, being able to grow a family on my own.
I think I'd be really devastated if I wasn't able
to experience pregnancy.
It's something I really look forward to.
It's something I've always wanted. Yeah.
Yeah, right. Bloody oath. What's yours?
It's a bit cooked compared to that one, aye?
I don't want to die being nothing. Like, I want to leave something,
whether it be a kid or... I don't want to be forgotten,
which doesn't make much sense.
But that's my... No, I know what you mean.
Do you know, I used to have a similar fear.
And then I started thinking to myself, as long as I'm important
to the people in my life now, it's improved my view on it.
But I do know what you mean.
I really like Dylan. I want him to want to make the first move.
Well, um, let's go and get warm.
Yes.
I'd like to kiss Ally, but I want to give the other girls a chance.
As much as I'm keen on Ally, like, I don't want to,
I don't want to screw up.
That's my biggest fear with this. At the moment,
I'm listening to my heart, but I'm probably also listening to my head.
They kind of...I need my gut to come in at some point.
OK. Watch them glasses.
It's been the most perfect day today.
Oh, no kiss. But that's alright.
Dylan has set a very high bar, for sure. Yeah.
Oh. What are you doing here?
I came to drop you this.
Ooh, ooh!
I meant to drop you that earlier, but I forgot to.
Did you get that on camera?
No, that's fine.
NATALIE: Tonight, our farmers are one step closer to finding love,
as they share one special romantic evening with their ladies.
Hello. Hi.
How you going?
I'm good, how are you? Good.
I've had a really beautiful day with Eddy.
And tonight, I want to get a bit clearer on where
she's at with her future.
I'm obviously not looking for clear cut answers now because
we've pretty well just met. Cheers. Cheers.
So I just want to get clearer on that and also just want to
have a bit of fun with her.
I'm so impressed. Pretty good?
You've been busy.
In the centre here, you know what they are?
Sausages? Beef and mushrooms.
Ooh! From the farm?
From yours truly. Yeah. Wow.
There you go. Just watch it. They might burn your tongue.
Mm.
So you said when you selected me
for the 24-hour date, that I was unexpected.
Yeah.
Why was I unexpected?
You know you talk to some people and you sort of feel
where the conversation's going?
Like. it just sort of takes normal turns and you're like, yeah.
I didn't have that at all with you.
I was just like, I have no idea what this chick's going on about.
But I was so into it. Don't know if that's a compliment!
No, it was, it was just like you were asking
all the right questions and managing to keep it, like we were getting
to know each other. OK.
While having a lot of fun and me making a fool of myself
having a swag.
No, it was fun.
I do have a question for you, though.
OK. Hit me.
It's what you do and you don't want in a relationship.
Mm-hm.
Are you comfortable getting into that?
Well... I've only had two serious partners.
I've had, like a very conservative partner that was, you know,
very driven and passionate and ambitious, but no time for fun.
And then I've had the one that always has had time for fun,
never settling down, never caring about financial stability.
And I've seen that in my parents as well, like my parents, you know,
built what they have on their own.
And I think they ended up having maybe a bit too much fun
and I just never really felt...
..we had like extreme financial stability.
My biggest thing in a relationship now is probably financial stability.
I want to make sure my children have everything that they want
or they need, have all of those things that, you know,
I unfortunately couldn't have. Yeah.
Nice.
That's probably what I want.
I definitely hear you.
I am quietly confident that Farmer Alex shares the same
opinion in terms of making sure that we are stable and providing
what we can for our children.
I think that would be so fundamental in us actually
growing a real relationship.
I got you a little something.
What? Is it a golf ball?
The golf ball? No. I've already given you a golf ball.
Yeah, it's in my bag. I look at it every night before I go to sleep.
Do you kiss it? Yeah, I smell it.
Good luck.
Dude!
This is a little gold pendant.
It's got, um, mother of pearl in the centre there,
which represents the divine feminine.
I can't believe that you got me something like this.
Yeah. That is so nice.
Do you like it?
Yeah, I love it. That's so nice.
The decision as to whether or not I was going to give her
the necklace started from the beginning of the day.
I don't know. There wasn't a point today where I thought
that things weren't going as well as they could. It felt right.
That's so cute.
Gold medal.
I'm gold girly.
You are a gold girl. Yeah.
Cute. That's so nice.
That is really nice.
I feel bad that I don't have anything for you.
I already gave you a hat, so.
Mm. Yeah.
The hat's good. I got it beside my bed.
Thank you.
You could give me something.
Do you like the pearl?
Yes. What?
I'm just embarrassed.
You're embarrassed? It's all good.
I was really surprised he got me a necklace.
Yeah, it was pretty special. Yeah.
Yes. We kissed.
Actually worked out really well,
delayed and did it in the end too. It was good.
