Lockdown love stories - when Sue met Ian
Who says a pandemic has to get in the way of love? Not Ian and Sue. They met just before the first lockdown and decided to take the plunge. And from there, love blossomed.
It wouldn't be Valentine's Day without a love story to warm your heart, so let us introduce you to Ian Barr and Sue Topey, who are 67 and 69. Sue had been single for 20 years when she met Ian online dating at the end of 2019. And then the pandemic hit. So what do you do with only a handful of dates under your belt? Do you go into isolation alone? Or do you risk it all and take the plunge? For 5 Minutes On, Jayne McCubbin went to meet them... hankies at the ready people!
