The Muslim one featured on TV was done in much the same way as parents looking for a partner for their children, with a chaperone accompanying the pair when they meet and the introduction being in keeping with Islamic tradition.
Go look

That may well be the case

I really don't see why anyone feels this is objectionable.
I don’t see my views on your religious belief’s as being part of this issue Willow. Nowt to do with me.

I do get pigged off with Muslim groups being what I perceive to be petty

I do get pigged off with the papers attempting to create discord over such perceived petty issues. Some reporting is tantamount to incitement.
