Take Me Out looking for '˜silver foxes' and '˜golden girls' for over 50s special

The show, presented by Paddy McGuinness, has become hugely popular over recent years, and spawned a number of catchphrases including ‘no likey, no lighty’.

The usual format sees a single guy trying to find love with one of 30 girls after coming down the ‘love lift’. If he manages to get through all three rounds - which include saying a bit more about himself, often showing off a skill or talent, and comments from his friends - then he has the chance to win a date on the island of ‘Fernando’s’.

Auditions for the over 50s special are happening soon so people are being urged to apply now.
