S02E04 Heather, Gareth and Matthew
Episode Overview
Heather struggles with severe OCD, which prevents her from having any physical contact due to her fear of germs, and she hasn’t welcomed anyone into her home for years. At 38, she also deals with Asperger's, making eye contact challenging. She finally goes on her first date in three years with Peter. Gareth, 28, lives with osteogenesis imperfecta, causing his bones to be extremely fragile; he’s broken his legs over 150 times and now relies on a wheelchair. He expresses his desire not to remain a virgin at 40 and takes Beth out to a seaside restaurant, hoping for a connection. Meanwhile, 20-year-old Matthew, a college student in Milton Keynes who loves karate and indie music, has autism and has yet to experience a romantic relationship.
