W has commissioned a new UKTV original titled The Ultimate Matchmaker<\/em>, which marks the entertainment channel’s first dating program.<\/p>\n

The Ultimate Matchmaker<\/em> follows the workers at a high-class dating agency in London. The 8×60-minute series will be led by dating expert and seasoned matchmaker Lara Asprey. It is being produced by Ricochet.<\/p>\n

Helen Nightingale, commissioning editor, stated: “In the year that Prince Harry marries Meghan, don\u2019t we all just yearn for a love story with a fairy-tale ending? This exciting new series for W is a funny and heartwarming peek into the extraordinary world of a very exclusive dating agency.”<\/p>\n

Steve North, genre general manager for comedy and entertainment, noted: \u201cWe\u2019ve wanted a show about dating ever since W was launched but we knew it had to be just right. We\u2019re really thrilled to have found the perfect match and we know viewers will really respond to The Ultimate Matchmaker<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Emma Walsh, executive producer for Ricochet, added: \u201cWe\u2019re delighted to be working with W and look forward to a summer of big characters, glorious locations and oodles of glamour. What\u2019s not to love?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
