Vielen Dank für Ihre zahlreichen Fragen an Sally Gray. Sieben ausgewählte Fragen wurden von Sally direkt beantwortet:

Frage 1: Hello Sally. I´m Matthias and I´m from Germany. What I wanted to ask you. Where have you learned your German? Good luck to get married.:-) Matthias

Sallys Antwort: Hi Matthias - I studied German at school at a basic level and then I ended up presenting a show for the BBC called "Language Fix" where I would be set different challenges that always involved chatting up the locals to help with my spoken German. I loved filming in Berlin and Munich the best and I really enjoyed popping over to Hamburg recently to promote my new show.

Frage 2: Hallo Sally mein Name ist Anke finde Dich super drücke Dir die Daumen und wünsche Dir ganz viel Glück auf der Suche nach Mr. Wonderful, bin ein absuluter Fan von Kevin finde ihn phantastisch, charmant, witzig, unbändig interessant - einfach eine Sünde wert ... wie sieht es aus mit euch... lieben Gruß Anke

Sallys Antwort: Hi there Anke - so glad you liked the show! Yes, Kevin was one of my top guys and I agree he has a great sense of humour. I liked him even more because he's Scottish like me!! I did meet up with him once my dating challenge was over and we had a bit of a disastrous date! I think he had found it quite tough being on my show when I was dating all these other guys, so when we met for a real date he was keen to show that he was in charge for a change. He ended up chatting up another woman right in front of me!!! I've seen him since though and he's apologised so we're friends again - but I don't think we'll ever have a proper relationship...he's a bit too artistic and off the wall for me I think.

Frage 3: Dear Sally, I wanted to know if you would life your live the same way, with focus on your career,if you could turn back time.And I also enjoy watching your show, you have got a great sense of humor!

Sallys Antwort: Yes I think I would still have put my career first if I could do it all again. I've been really lucky to have done some brilliant things as a TV presenter over the years, lots of travelling and great life experiences. At the end of the day, relationships come down to timing and I'm really ready now to settle down with the right guy. I will be sad if I end up being too old to have children and maybe then I would regret not putting my love life first a long time ago.

Frage 4: Meinst Du, dass in Deiner Sendung trotz der Kamera realistische Date-Situationen entstehen konnten? Danke!

Sallys Antwort: At first it was really hard for me to relax with the cameras around because going out with a guy on a date has got to be one of the most personal things you can do in life! Myself and my production team (usually cameraman and one producer, sometimes 2 cameras...) got better at filming the dates so that the cameras weren't in the way so much. Usually if would be hard for the guys to totally be themselves on a first date but the 4 guys I really liked began to forget the cameras by date 3 or 4. By this point they got to know the production team as well so it was all as natural as possible - especially after a few drinks! I knew that I really like Kevin from the first date because he was such fun and really rose to the challenge of being filmed at the same time. We just clicked. Whereas with Gary it kind of slowly got better the more we met each other and that final date on the walk down in Richmond on the lovely sunny day was probably my favourite date. It was very simple and we were just two people enjoying each other's company - for me it was very real!

Frage 5: Hi Sally, I really like your style! Where do you get your cool clothes? Kind regards, Nadine

Sallys Antwort: Hi Nadine - I'm so glad you liked my 'look'! I always like bright colours and I loved my pink hat the best (some people didn't) and I lost it at the end of filming the show and I still miss it! I got that crazy hat from Accessorise in the UK. My black leather jacket was from Joseph (very expensive at around £700 but worth it because it was a certain style I wanted for the show). I wore quite a bit of Pringle clothes on the show - pink striped jumper, blue and white diamond zip up golf inspired top and blue tartan jacket with blue fur collar. I would describe my look as quite quirky and off-beat...I like being original and have a really ecclectic wardrobe full of unique pieces I've picked up over the years. I love the Spanish designer Custo and have quite a few of their bright patterned tops. I also love the UK store Whistles and can always find something glam in there - my pink sparkly dress I wore at the end was from Whistles as were quite a few of the more sexy tops I wore - speed dating, first date with Kevin, Gary's house party, coat on the opera date with Gary. One viewer wrote to me saying that it was about time I stopped wearing combat trousers and got rid of my ridiculous hat!!! I thought that was hilarious. Maybe I'll have to grow up a bit with my style when I turn 40 in 2 years time!!!

Frage 6: Hey Sally, Today I have seen your last show, I am really sad that it is over now. I would like to know if you have already found your "Mister Right"? Greets Anna

Sallys Antwort: Hi Anna - at lot of people have said that they were really sad when the show was over and I hung up my dating boots! I'm so glad that so many people really got into it and loved every detail!! When the project finished and we stopped filming, I ran away to Scotland then Australia for a couple of months to get away from all the madness and men! Quite a few more guys who didn't want to be filmed came out of the woodwork and were phoning me looking for a date. I had dated constantly for 10 weeks and I certainly didn't want to go for more drinks/meals/ or chat up any men for a long time. I did however really hope that one of these guys would be right for me - my top 4 men were really great from the show. But I was very confused when it all finished and had to get my head straight. I don't think it's healthy to date that many men at once because you can't work out which one you really like!!! A few months after we finished filming when I came back from Australia I met a lovely guy called Joe. He works in the media and I met him through one of the contacts from my TV show! I'm still with him now after 6 months together...so maybe he will turn out to be my Mr Right!!! Keep your fingers crossed for me and if it does work out then I'll let you know....maybe I'll film the run up to the wedding!

Frage 7: Warum sind die "bad boys" immer wieder so faszinierend für Frauen, obwohl doch klar ist, dass sie an einer ernsthaften Beziehung nicht interessiert sind?

Sallys Antwort: I think us girls want to try and reform the bad boys and turn them into good boys but that'll never happen! Yes, we like a challenge but it's too much to take on and way too unpredictable. Usually the bad boys are very handsome too, so they have a whole queue of girls waiting in a line if it doesn't work out with you. That's too much pressure and really at the end of the day you want to be with someone who is a good person who genuinely likes you and doesn't need to play games. I think Paul the barman was probably a bad boy!!! He had lots of pretty girls coming up to him in the bar and was definitely not a settling-down type of guy. I really liked him at the time but looking back I realise that it would never have worked out because he probably doesn't want to change or is too hard to change. I don't want to be in relationships where you play games anymore, I just want to get on with my life and share it with someone wonderful.
