Sacha Lord (pictured), the Night Life Economy Adviser for Greater Manchester, said the decline in young Brits going on nights out can be attributed to their increasing desire to look good online.

Mr Lord, 52, claimed that young people don't want to be seen on social media with 'ketchup down your chin when you've had a kebab at the end of the night'. Instead, showing off new clothes online and going to the gym is the 'new going out'.

The Sunday Brunch host, 60, revealed that his daughter was invited to star on the dating show, but he was dissatisfied when she turned it down, insisting that it was a "weird option" because she isn't a "Love Island kind of person." Simon loved Flo, 25, who caught the producers' attention on social media, Flo and Simon Taste the World. The only reason she'd like to do the reality show was to advance her TV career, not to find love.
