A guest completely stunned viewers when he announced that his celebrity crush was none other than .
The 28-year-old team leader was on the hunt for his ‘silver fox’, even showing off his life-size cutout of the host.
‘My biggest celebrity crush is Phillip Schofield,’ Ryan declared.
He then joked: ‘He’ll always manage to get me up in the morning.’
The hopeful was then asked by host Anna Richardson what ‘Mr Right’ looked like, to which he replied: ‘A silver-fox, got to be sophisticated.’
‘Phillip Schofield, that guy is a dream,’ he added.
As he whittled down the n**ed.n**ed men stood in front of him Anna later joked that one of the anonymous hopefuls was ‘a 60-year-old TV presenter’, before reassuring Ryan and viewers at home that it wasn’t, in fact, Phil.
Viewers were entirely stunned by Ryan’s admission, with one admitting being left ‘uncomfortable’.
‘I can’t cope with this dude loving Schofield so much, its made me feel uncomfortable for some reason,’ one person wrote.
Another penned: ‘Phillip Schofield? WTAF?’
While Phil may not have been hiding behind the colourful boxes, Ryan did walk away with a date.
However, when the pair returned to face the cameras, it was revealed there was no second date on the cards and Ryan hadn’t yet found his Mr Right.
n**ed.n**ed Attraction continues Wednesdays at 10pm on Channel 4.
