Owners of a cafe in Kent were given some national exposure when a couple on Channel 4's The Undateables chose it as a venue for a date.

Swan Street Cafe in Swan Street, West Malling, was included in last night's first episode of the new series of the programme, which features the dating lives of people with disabilities.

The cafe's distinctive "squishy" mugs also made an appearance as Alex, a full time student who had not had a girlfriend before, took Eloise on a date there.

The episode was filmed back in September.

Owner Charlotte Marchant-Slattery said: "It was really exciting for us to be on there - everyone was tweeting, texting and Facebooking when the programme was on!"

"We had the call earlier this year as they were looking for somewhere for them to hold their date."

She added: "It was great to see our squishy mugs - everyone loves them."
