He’s tall, dark, handsome and smart – like seriously geniuslevel smart! Matthew Agnew is an astrophysicist studying for his PhD. Friends describe him as a hot Sheldon Cooper, a character from the top rating TV show The Big Bang Theory.

“Seeing my mates finding their partners, tying the knot and buzzing with laughter and love, I realise I want that,” Matthew, 31, explains. “I’ve got a real ‘do it once, do it right’ mentality so I’ll be making sure I throw myself into it, am vulnerable and enjoy what comes from that. I’m pinching myself that this is happening. It may be an unorthodox way to meet someone, but I can’t wait and it’ll make for a cracking ‘how we met’ story!”
