  • S1 Ep. 2 - Chris and Doug - A Night At Lord Lucan's
    Feb 21 2023

    Hello and welcome to episode 2 of the Proposals Podcast. We are thrilled to have you and hope you are ready for another instalment of love and romance and letting that lovely soppy feeling wash over you as we sit down with Carrie's mum and dad, Chris and Doug who have been married for around 50 years. They take us back to swinging 60's London, where a young girl from a mining village on the outskirts of Newcastle met and fell in love with a young man from Dagenham. This is the story of how they managed a long-distance relationship, long before phones were readily available, where romance was penned in love letters and how my Dad would catch the overnight milk train to save money to see his sweetheart. This is such a cute episode you really don't want to miss.

    Hello and welcome to episode 5 of the Proposals Podcast. We are thrilled to have you and hope you are ready for another instalment of love and romance and letting that lovely soppy feeling wash over you. This week we head up the M1 to Coventry to speak with this week's guests, Samantha and Mark Pooler. These two have been married for over 15 years and tell how they met through mutual friends while clubbing in the mid-90's - what a time to be alive. Where people would meet across a smokey dancefloor and exchange contact details via their pagers (if you're under 40 look it up!). Guaranteed squishy feelings when Mark describes his proposal to Sam, on a beach in Ibiza.

  • S1 Ep 8. Scott & Amy - Yooooooooooooooooooooooooo?
    Apr 4 2023

    Well, here we are at the end of the first series with a delightful couple, all the way from the U.S. Scott and Amy. This is such a great episode to end on. These two were so open about how they got together and Scott shares how nervous he was the night he popped the question.

    From Scott seeing the beautiful blonde pulling up in her jeep in the work car park (sorry - parking lot!), to the first time he asked her out with the classic line, yooooooooooooooooo? This couple really are a delight and you have to give this one a listen.

    Thanks so much for supporting the podcast, we will miss you until we're back for series 2.
