Here's the blurb from the channel 4 website and a trailer for the show which starts at 8pm tonight on Channel 4.

Gok Wan hosts this brand-new dating game show with a difference, where contestants must choose and reject potential partners on the basis of their baggage. Daters must choose from three contestants who gradually reveal the hidden secrets and crazy flaws that they'd normally keep firmly under wraps to impress a date. As the show goes on, the contestants bring on bigger and bigger suitcases, which they open to reveal their secrets. And the bigger the bag, the bigger the Baggage! Who'll find love and win a romantic holiday, and who'll have just too much Baggage? (comm ed: Tom Beck, prod co: Chocolate Media, NBCUniversal)
