Romeo + Duet is a light-entertainment, singing & dating format hosted by Oti Mabuse; where single contributors, aka “pickers”, nab themselves a date off the back of a suitor’s song.

Divided into four rounds, with a picker in each, they’ll get to hear up to 4 singers serenade them, but crucially the picker cannot see the singer. Their decision must be based solely on whether the suitor strikes the right chord.

Set in a studio, our pickers reside on top of a bespoke balcony, in a blind spot to the performance area. The picker will only get to see the performer if they walk all the way down the balcony, passing “the step of no return”. And from there, it triggers the curtain drop to reveal their match.

After picking their perfect match, each newly formed pairing will leave the main stage and head to the greenroom. With the clock ticking, they’ll learn to sing a duet together, all whilst getting to know each other a little better.

The show culminates in the Duet Off, where we welcome back the four couples to perform their duets. Power is then handed over to our studio audience, as they’ll vote for their winning couple of the episode, sending them on a romantic getaway.

The show was recorded at Dock 10 Studios, Manchester.
