BBC reportedly developing 'gender-fluid' dating show open to all genders and sexualities amid £500m cost cuts

The untitled show is still in development and will be open to 'all genders and sexualities' aged 18 to 26, following the axing of several LGBT-friendly programmes. Strong Watch Studios is making it for the BBC's YouTube channel rather than traditional TV. Filming is expected to begin in London in early November.
