DEBATE: Has Online Dating Killed Romance?

A debate between three daters about whether online dating websites have killed romance. I wanted to get the opinion of three people no stranger to the dating scene, with two still looking for love and one having found it. I wanted a balanced point of view, with one online success story, one unsuccessful online dater and one online dater skeptic.

So, we have George Heslop, who is 27. George is an intern at Snapper music and met his current girlfriend online using an online dating website related to musical taste.

 
This is Jill Taylor, 51-year-old mum of two, shop manager and online dating phobe. Jill is sceptic to the ways of online dating and says that if she could "live in the days of Jane Austen", she would.
