"Playdate" was a British television dating programme. It was screened Monday to Fridays on ITV Play between 8.00pm and 10.00pm, and daily on ITV2 between 1.00am and 4.00am. Billed as "the UK’s first interactive TV dating show", the show's format is based around speed dating.

The show had one format: 7 days a week, the show was interactive: various singletons of both sexes were invited into the studio, and members of the public were invited to phone in and talk with the studio guests, known as "datees". Viewers were also invited to send text messages and picture messages to the "datees".

The show's presenters were Brendan Courtney, Dave O'Reilly, Giles Vickers-Jones, Kat Shoob, Katy Pullinger, Zoe Hardman and former "Big Brother" winner Kate Lawler.

"Playdate" was axed with its final show being aired on December 17. "The Mint" was shown in its slot on ITV2 and "The Mint Extra" shown in its slot on ITV Play. However this phone-in quiz has now also ceased broadcasting.
