Celebs Go Dating star Vanessa Feltz has criticised the dating experts following a string of bad dates.

A previous episode had seen the journalist matched up with Paul. However, the pair struggled for conversation throughout their meal before Paul awkwardly lifted Vanessa off the ground while saying goodbye.

In tonight's (August 30) episode, Vanessa checked in at the agency with Anna Williamson, and she had some choice words for the relationship expert.

"I'm not annoyed — I think disappointed and maybe a bit nonplused as well," Vanessa said of her emotions following her date with Paul.

Vanessa then noted that Paul looked great but couldn't hold a conversation, which made Anna wonder if perhaps Vanessa's dates have felt intimidated by her.

"I wonder if some of that richness in your intellect maybe dominates some of these men," Anna wondered, adding that Paul had felt Vanessa had been trying to interview him on the date.

"I think I'm just doing my best to make it flow," Vanessa replied. "I'm just hoping that we might have a conversation."

Anna then touched on Vanessa's most recent relationship, asking the journalist how the break-up had impacted her view on relationships moving forward. Vanessa had previously been engaged to singer Ben Ofoedu, splitting last Christmas after 17 years together.

"It's not easy. The best thing to do is to get back in the saddle," she reflected.

"I'm very sad and sorry that I chose to place love and trust and confidence in someone who treated it so badly."

Later, Vanessa headed on a more successful date with Stacy, while Lottie and Adam went out to discuss where things stood between them.

The date got off to a rocky start for the two contestants, as the model made it clear that she wasn't interested in just hooking up. But things later smoothed out for the pair after Adam revealed he wouldn't continue getting to know Jasmine.

"There's no shadow of a doubt — I'm into Lottie," he said afterwards as they shared a kiss.
