Single Brits reveal the best pick-up line - is it one you've used?

CHAT-UP lines are back — and pick of the bunch is: “Is your name wi-fi, because I’m feeling a connection.”

It has been ranked the best ever by a poll of single Brits.

And old-fashioned ice-breakers are now most likely to be used by those aged 16 to 29.

A quarter have turned to the cheesy one-liners, compared to 11 per cent of singles aged between 30 and 49, and nine per cent of over 50s.

Other favourites are: Is your name Google — because you’re what I’ve been searching for; are you a parking ticket — you’ve got “fine” written all over you; should we get coffee — I like you a latte; and are you on loan — you’ve got my interest.

Golden oldies still being used include: “If I said you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against me”; “If I could rearrange the alphabet I’d put U and I together”, and; “Do you have a name or can I call you mine?”
