Roger Hawes and Janey Smith appeared on My Mum, Your Dad and won the hearts of the nation, but it gave them something utterly life-changing: true love.

Now, as they celebrate one year together, the singer and former postman plan to mark the occasion by going back to where it all began. “Our anniversary is 15 May – that’s when we really started dating,” Roger, 59, tells us. “We’d love to go back to where the show was filmed, as so much has changed since then.” “We’re a team now,” agrees 48-year-old Janey. “That’s all I’ve ever wanted.” The pair were signed up for the ITV dating show, dubbed the “middle-aged Love Island ”, by Roger’s daughter Jess, 29, and Janey’s son William, 20 – and the couple instantly felt a spark.

Solidifying their perfect match, they embarked on a helicopter ride for a romantic date, which ended with them clinking their glasses.

Janey said, “What are we cheersing to?” and Roger replied, “Our first kiss.” Aww! Before the show, there were trials and tribulations along the way, particularly for Roger, who had faced a recent heartbreak.
