Mitch Tell Midnight Kiss Nights
Hey buddy, how you doing?
Good, how are you?
I'm good, man. Where about you? You're in LA, yeah?
Yeah, currently in LA for a little bit.
Ooh, living the big life. How you feeling? You must be on top of the world.
I reckon every man, woman, dog is just going to bed and doing things to themselves over photos of you.
Everyone's in love with you.
Well, that's absolutely amazing. I'm f***ed.
Oh, sorry, I can't swear.
You can swear.
I love that.
I've got to say.
That's absolutely amazing.
No, it's true.
It's true.
You're killing it on this show.
And I'm loving watching you.
You were on, this isn't your first reality show though, right?
You were on another one?
Yeah, I was on another one, I think like two years ago.
And what made you think you want to do another one?
Were you crazy?
Well, like it's, I'm not, I don't think I'm mentally okay, to be honest.
Yeah.
I'm probably a little bit crazy.
Well, that's what I was wondering.
I'm like, this guy must either just love the attention or he just loves being on camera
or he's not okay.
One of the three.
So I think option three.
Probably all three.
Yeah, probably.
But I love that.
Now, everyone's loving the show.
For people who haven't seen it, how would you describe it?
Is it like Love Island but without the sex or is it nothing like that?
I think it's more like a classy Love Island.
You go in and all these people have got this idea of we're going into a Love Island situation
and they're all horny, they're all ready to roll.
And you just get these rules dumped on you where you can't have sex, you can't
kiss, you can't do any self-gratification, you can't do anything.
You're going to lose money off the prize and there's like $100,000 up for grabs.
So it's pretty wild, pretty intense, especially for an Aussie guy being chucked in with some
of the hottest girls he's ever seen.
So I get a bit heated.
Yeah.
So you couldn't even have a bit of fun with yourself, right?
That was not allowed.
No, if you went in the shower and tried to eat the meat, it would be game over.
You'd be getting fined.
So that means there's cameras on you 24-7.
That's what we tied up for, man.
True, very true.
Yeah, well, you are crazy.
You really are.
How hard is it for you normally on a date? On a date, are you normally like, hey, first date, let's get dinner,
then let's just go to the bedroom?
Or are you okay?
Can you, like, wait a couple of days?
Like, how hard was this for you?
No, this is the worst thing that's ever happened to me at that point in time.
Really?
I cried.
I cried when they told me the rules.
Like, they played that down real well.
Like, I was a mess.
Like, I was chucking a tantrum.
I was like, send me home.
I'm not here for this. And then I realized that I real well. Like, I was a mess. Like, I was chucking a tantrum. I was like, send me home. I'm not here for this.
And then I realized that I actually need help.
Yeah, right, right.
Fair enough.
So, like, are you a guy that knows your number,
or is it just completely through the roof?
Oh, I've got them all tracked.
Really?
So where are we at?
I'm not going to say that.
Oh!
That's good news.
Come on.
I'll say mine, and you say yours on three.
We'll do it together.
We'll share.
Nah, because I've fallen for this trick before and I've absolutely embarrassed myself.
Really?
So, like, over 1,000?
Nah, nah, nah.
I'm only 22.
Okay.
All right.
You've got a couple of years.
Yeah, I feel you.
Okay.
All right.
Oh, that's fine.
See, mine was 1,000.
See, I was going to show you up anyway.
That would have been embarrassing for you.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
That would have been very embarrassing. Please. Actually, mine was $1,000. See, I was going to show you up anyway. That would have been embarrassing for you. Oh, wow, yeah. That would have been very embarrassing.
Please.
Actually, we've got some fan questions.
Do you mind if I jump to the fans and see what they want to know about the show?
Go for it.
Cool, man.
All right, we've got Alex.
Alex, you're on with Harry.
Go.
Hey, Harry.
I absolutely love the show.
I know that you and Francesca are still together now, and considering, obviously, the rules,
you couldn't sleep together, I was just wondering what were the main qualities about her that you fell for? Amazing question so yeah me and
Francesca have like a similar sense of humor and in the first couple days when we sat down we really
had some deep chats and we opened up to each other and there was just a real soft caring and loving
side of her that I or that I've never felt from anyone or anything like that.
And I guess as soon as we started getting deeper into each other, not actually.
Oh, come on.
I mean, don't say that.
We know you can't.
Deeper into each other's personality, getting to know each other on a deeper level, right?
Yeah, yeah.
I'm following you.
Her personality was the best,
or is the best thing about her for sure.
Her humour is by far the most fun thing about her.
And you're official, you're a couple.
Yeah, we're talking about getting married.
Really?
Yeah.
She's going to lock this stallion down before he takes over.
Very true.
Very true.
All right, man.
Well, we're loving you on the show.
I got one more question from Ada.
I'll just get Ada on.
Ada, you're on with Harry.
Go for it.
Hey, Harry.
I was just wondering what the audition process was like.
Oh, I thought she was going to swear for a second there.
What the audition process was like.
Hit me.
How was that?
Yeah, so obviously it's Netflix, so no short feet.
And it was a massive, massive, long and strenuous process. Yeah, so obviously it's Netflix, so no short feet.
And it was a massive, massive, long and strenuous process.
But no one had any idea it was for Netflix or what it was or anything like that.
It was super under-wrapped.
And it was just like a massive string of questions,
like pretty much solely focused on our dating life and sex life to make sure that we were the right people.
Did they tell you straight up?
Were they like, hey, this is like a dating game, plot twist, no sex?
Or was that held off until just before they chucked you on a plane?
I honestly thought like they didn't tell us anything up until the point where
it gets announced on the show.
So I honestly thought that it was literally going to be the most insane,
raunchy, steamy dating show anyone's ever seen.
And I get in there and I'm in cock watch.
You're like, shit.
Should have done Love Island.
You're the bachelor.
I've seen a lot of people online petitioning for you to be the next bachelor.
Is that something you'd be open to?
Would you be keen to try that?
Is that actually a thing going on
in Australia right
yeah I put on my
Instagram I was like
what do you want to
ask Harry and all
these people like
is he the next
bachelor is he the
next bachelor
would he do it
wow
so look I'm
me and Francesca
are more than
perfect and she's
my dream girl
so I would love
I honestly like
it's always been
like at the back
of my mind that i'd love to be the bachelor but it just it wouldn't i guess it wouldn't really
feel right if i was in a relationship and then i tried to do that i probably wouldn't wouldn't be
a good look either especially knowing knowing your type you've already said you just want to
get with all the girls and every week they'll be like ah just give her a rose you don't need to
you know screw it it's episode two harry calm, Harry. Calm down. I'm wholesome now.
I'm wholesome now.
I'm a change man.
Harry, at the start of the show was that 20-year-old, 22-year-old, but now I'm wholesome.
You're mature.
And respectable.
Now, talk to me on a serious business level.
You do e-commerce, right?
Or you run your own business?
How does that work?
Yeah, yeah.
