00:01:55Nice to meet you

00:01:59I'm hoping it's the beginning of the next chapter of my life

00:02:01So what did you ask for?

00:02:03I'm a hopeless romantic and I just want to find someone who likes me for me next. Yeah

00:02:1018 brides and grooms-to-be

00:02:15My name's Maeve

00:02:17Are marking the start of the experiment with their stag and hen parties

00:02:20You know what? I'm not the type of guy that's like nervous in social situations. This has ruined me. I've had like three poos today

00:02:26Cheers girls

00:02:32My hands are shaking

00:02:34We'll be fine. We'll be fine

00:02:36We're all in the same boat. We're absolutely grand

00:02:38Exactly. I know

00:02:40What's your type, sis? Girl, I like a bad boy

00:02:42Lots of tattoos

00:02:44They look like they've probably just come out of jail

00:02:46Fantastic

00:02:48I definitely get judged by the way I look

00:02:52When people see me they might assume, you know, I'm like an ex-convict or something like that

00:02:58But as soon as they start talking to me they realise I'm a big softy at heart

00:03:04Hey

00:03:06Hey up

00:03:08How we doing lads?

00:03:09Good pal

00:03:10We all good?

00:03:11Yeah, what's your name? Joe

00:03:12Joe, nice to meet you mate

00:03:13Whoa, this guy's like looking in a mirror

00:03:15What are you hoping for then?

00:03:17You'd think I'd be into tattoos but it's not like a deal breaker

00:03:20You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah

00:03:22Like if she doesn't like tattoos I'm

00:03:24She'll be gone

00:03:30I am tired of modern dating

00:03:33People are ghosting

00:03:34People are breadcrumbing

00:03:35It's hell out there

00:03:36It's torturous

00:03:38Too much?

00:03:40Yeah

00:03:41Oh my God

00:03:43Ultimately I do want a great love

00:03:45I believe in it

00:03:46And I'm willing to do everything I can to make it a success

00:03:49Have you all thought about getting married?

00:03:51I kind of just always assumed at some point I would get married

00:03:54And then was like

00:03:55Wait

00:03:56Wait, wait a minute

00:03:58I'm in the thirties now, where is he?

00:04:00I've always been a bit of a front runner

00:04:04How's it going? You alright?

00:04:06I'm just super confident

00:04:07Bailey, nice to meet you

00:04:08How you doing?

00:04:09I like to kind of lead the way and be a bit different

00:04:10Yeah, I can't wait mate, I'm so excited, yeah

00:04:12What are you like picturing in your head then?

00:04:14No she's standing

00:04:15Or I think she's standing

00:04:16Do you know what I mean?

00:04:17Hopefully she thinks I'm alright

00:04:18Yeah

00:04:19I'm sure she will

00:04:20That's alright

00:04:21That's a banker

00:04:22Have we all done the vowels then?

00:04:24I'm gonna rap

00:04:25What?

00:04:26I'm gonna rap

00:04:27Oh yeah?

00:04:28Oh that's quality mate

00:04:29A whole year like a little bit

00:04:30No but I can freestyle

00:04:31Here we are getting ready to meet our bride, our wife, whatever you may say

00:04:38Gonna be something super great

00:04:40Can't wait to find my bride that day

00:04:42It's probably not a good idea, Dean rapping at the end of the aisle to be fair, no

00:04:46He's a brave man, isn't he?

00:04:50I don't think I could rap my vows and play to him

00:04:58Hi

00:04:59Hi

00:05:01Oh no

00:05:02I started thinking about my future husband

00:05:04I was actually in the shower, you know, a couple of weeks ago washing my hair

00:05:07And I was thinking, I wonder if he's standing in the shower washing his hair

00:05:10And I thought, you might not have any hair

00:05:14My granddaughter saw my wedding dress hanging up in the spare bedroom last week

00:05:17Oh no

00:05:18She was like, Grandma, why is there a wedding dress?

00:05:20And I was just like, erm

00:05:26Being a grandma is the best

00:05:28I adore my three grandchildren

00:05:34But I don't feel my age

00:05:35I would say I was a little bit wild

00:05:41I'm always doing something a little bit crazy

00:05:43I don't wanna be sitting later in life and having regrets

00:05:50Of course I'm the best grandma

00:05:58For your husband and you don't like him, do you think you'd be able to...

00:06:01I think there's gotta be some initial attraction

00:06:03Yeah, we have to give it a chance because we're all single for a reason

00:06:06Let's call it for what it is

00:06:07I am desperate to fall in love and meet the right person

00:06:15I'm excited

00:06:16Hiya

00:06:17Oh, hello

00:06:18Hiya

00:06:19Hiya

00:06:20Hiya

00:06:21Hiya

00:06:22What's your name?

00:06:23Leah, what's your name?

00:06:24John Bailey, nice to meet you

00:06:25I'm a bit shocked

00:06:26Like, she's pretty alright, isn't she?

00:06:28Didn't expect that, to be fair

00:06:30I'm interested in your type

00:06:32Because obviously you're here on the stag

00:06:33So I have always been bi

00:06:35Okay

00:06:36But I have asked for a girl

00:06:37Okay

00:06:38I was with men until I was 25

00:06:39Okay, yeah

00:06:40And then I started dating girls

00:06:41And then I was like, no, I need a man

00:06:42And now I'm not bored, I need a girl

00:06:44Is it definitely no more, man?

00:06:46I'd never say never

00:06:47You've got to be getting married

00:06:49That was the wrong answer

00:06:50That's hard

00:06:51Thanks

00:06:53Do you think you've been in love before?

00:06:54Yes

00:06:55I think I've never been in love, but I've been in love

00:06:57You've never been in love?

00:06:58You've never been in love?

00:06:59Come here, give me a cuddle, mate

00:07:00Come here

00:07:01Give me a cudge

00:07:02Someone's obviously told you they love you though

00:07:04I've always been the one, they've been the prize

00:07:06I've never been the prize, you know

00:07:08Growing up, I was always the friend and never the boyfriend

00:07:11But the friend that the girls would tell everything to

00:07:13And they're like, I need to find a guy just like you

00:07:15And I'm there like, I'm literally just like me

00:07:18So why won't it be me?

00:07:21And they just couldn't see it

00:07:22And I'm like, one day you'll see it

00:07:24But it just never came

00:07:27I've not felt accepted in all my relationships at all

00:07:29Because I've had somewhere, they asked me to change

00:07:32I was with a girl and she said I was too fat

00:07:34So that's a thing that you kind of take with you

00:07:37So yeah, I've definitely felt like I'm not enough before in relationships

00:07:41My friend said to me, someone will love you for who you are

00:07:45And you'll find that person

00:07:47And now I'm ready to find my person

00:07:49I'm ready for love

00:07:52I think I've always loved more and I want the same

00:07:54Oh, I hope yours really puts you on a pedestal

00:07:56I hope so

00:07:57I'm gonna make sure she does

00:07:58Dean, like he's my favourite straight away

00:08:00Like I'm just hoping he finds the one more than anything

00:08:03Because he's just too nice

00:08:13Hi gorgeous

00:09:21Hello

00:09:27I'm Leigh, I'm from Romford

00:09:29I'm gay, so I'm marrying a woman

00:09:31What?

00:09:32What?

00:09:33Bitch!

00:09:37I'm not alone!

00:09:39I knew no one would be expecting that

00:09:41So I'll just get that out there now

00:09:43Can you remind me asking, when did you come out?

00:09:44I think I was about 15

00:09:45I didn't have like this big coming out story

00:09:47So my mum was like, as long as you're happy

00:09:49My story could not be any different

00:09:51What was your story?

00:09:52Dad kicked me out

00:09:54Oh my God

00:09:55Oh my God

00:09:56Oh my God

00:09:57Oh, I'm so sorry

00:09:58He just didn't understand it

00:10:00He didn't get it

00:10:01Have you been able to rebuild that relationship?

00:10:03I love my dad and he loves me

00:10:05Aww

00:10:06I love that

00:10:07Yeah

00:10:08Are they coming to the wedding?

00:10:09No, but I'm FaceTiming my mum on the day

00:10:11Amazing

00:10:12Oh, thanks

00:10:13Dad already says like, you got this

00:10:14Oh, I love that

00:10:15Anything will be better than the last one

00:10:16I love that

00:10:17I love that

00:10:18Anything will be better than the last one

00:10:20My previous relationship

00:10:22We were engaged for two years

00:10:24I wanted kids, get married

00:10:26I thought we were on the same page

00:10:28Turns out we weren't

00:10:30And that broke me

00:10:33That broke my heart

00:10:34And now here I am again at 33

00:10:37Studying again

00:10:38And yeah, I'm ready for this

00:10:40I'm here to find love

00:10:45I've been through a lot

00:10:46I've been through a lot

00:10:47But I don't want to settle

00:10:49The only thing that settles in this household is dust

00:10:51Yes

00:10:52I'm not dust, so I'm not settling

00:10:54I'm serious

00:10:55I am serious about that

00:10:56It's not my next tattoo

00:10:57I think during the experiment I'll end up as Papa Smurf

00:11:04Whether I like it or not

00:11:05That's the honest truth

00:11:06What's up on you?

00:11:07Hello

00:11:08How's it going on?

00:11:09Nice to meet you, Paul

00:11:10I'm good

00:11:11Good to meet you, man

00:11:12A man of my generation

00:11:14He comes to me for all kinds of advice I would imagine

00:11:16Hopefully not on zoom or frames

00:11:18And you know

00:11:19When you get to a certain age

00:11:21Sexual attraction is not number one

00:11:23It might not seem that way at your age

00:11:25But it's not

00:11:26The sexual attraction will grow if you're on the same wavelength

00:11:29Yeah

00:11:30That's true

00:11:31If you're not, you'll just go like that

00:11:32Plus it, like

00:11:33I don't know how old you are

00:11:34But at that age

00:11:35Chicken

00:11:36Chicken

00:11:37He's being well nice

00:11:39He is

00:11:40Have you been married before?

00:11:41Yeah, once

00:11:42Okay

00:11:43How long was you married for?

00:11:44Seven years

00:11:45Which seemed much longer at the time

00:11:47I'm feeling apprehensive

00:11:49Anxious

00:11:50Terrified

00:11:51I've been hurt and I've put a lot of walls up in relationships

00:12:01But I want to find love more than anything else

00:12:03How are you feeling, Kia?

00:12:04A little bit nervous, but good

00:12:05Good

00:12:06Are you nervous?

00:12:07Yeah

00:12:08I'm about to marry a stranger, you're not a little bit nervous

00:12:09I do

00:12:10I do

00:12:11What have you asked for?

00:12:12Someone understanding, someone patient

00:12:14Are you a nightmare?

00:12:15I would say individual, but nightmare's another way of looking at it, I suppose

00:12:21I'm definitely ready to say goodbye to my, like, single life

00:12:28Hi

00:12:29Hi

00:12:30Hi

00:12:31Hi

00:12:32Hi

00:12:33Hi

00:12:34I'm ready to put a ring on my finger

00:12:35It's cold

00:12:36It's naked

00:12:37It doesn't look right

00:12:38I kind of just want to go get married, like, now

00:12:40Like, if I can just

00:12:42Today

00:12:43Like

00:12:44Like now

00:12:46Where are you from?

00:12:47I'm New Zealand

00:12:48But I love here now

00:12:49Yeah

00:12:50Wow

00:12:51She's travelling

00:12:52There we go, exactly

00:12:53Yeah

00:12:54What a fabulous ball of energy

00:12:56Absolutely

00:12:57Love her

00:12:58Whether it's on your, like, honeymoon

00:13:00Or whether it's on your wedding day

00:13:02Is anyone gonna...

00:13:03In the...

00:13:04In the...

00:13:05In the...

00:13:06In the...

00:13:07I'm just gonna play it by ear

00:13:08I'm not

00:13:09We'll get married

00:13:10You're gonna do it on the first night

00:13:11No

00:13:12Love this

00:13:13So un-gay of you

00:13:14I know

00:13:15That thing is the emotional and then the physical for me

00:13:18Because if I...

00:13:19If I give you the emotional and the physical

00:13:21There's nothing left for me to give you

00:13:23But my problem is

00:13:24What if you fancy the absolute arse off of him?

00:13:26Then do it, girl

00:13:27Oh

00:13:28Give a baby!

00:13:29Yay!

00:13:30Do what makes you happy!

00:13:32Yeah

00:13:33I mean, sex on the wedding night

00:13:34Obviously will depend if I fancy him or not

00:13:36Please be fit

00:13:37I just wanna see if he takes out the bins or not

00:13:42I'm sorry

00:13:43I can't do that

00:13:44I can't

00:13:45Wait, wait, wait

00:13:46I have a good tip for that

00:13:47Oh

00:13:48So there's pink jobs and blue jobs

00:13:49Yeah

00:13:50Blue jobs are boys jobs

00:13:51In my last relationship

00:13:52I had to do laundry

00:13:53I had to do dishes

00:13:54I was doing all the girls jobs

00:13:56Why have I considered girls jobs?

00:13:57Why have I considered girls jobs?

00:13:58Why have I considered girls jobs?

00:13:59Why have I considered girls jobs?

00:14:00I don't want to do them either

00:14:01I don't want to do them either

00:14:02I don't want to do them either

00:14:03People suggesting that women should be doing women jobs

00:14:08Which is bullshit

00:14:10Which is bullshit

00:14:11We want to go more, like, feminist

00:14:15Let's keep them equal

00:14:1750-50, like if someone's cooking the other person cleans

00:14:20the other person cleans. It's very easy.

00:14:22I agree with that.

00:14:23It doesn't have to be pink and blue.

00:14:28Jesus.

00:14:29That was controversial, wasn't it?

00:14:37I'm here on a mission.

00:14:39I'm excited to meet the person of my dreams.

00:14:48Devonnie.

00:14:49Devonnie is handsome.

00:14:51Very handsome guy.

00:14:53Joe's really jealous because he's not the best looking now.

00:14:55Ah, he's fuming. Look, he's fuming.

00:15:01Oh, here's an even better looking guy.

00:15:07What's your name?

00:15:08Stephen, I'm Bailey.

00:15:10Stephen's dressed to impress, so he's doing right so far.

00:15:12He's showing everyone up.

00:15:15What do you do, Stephen?

00:15:16Investment banking manager.

00:15:17Investment banking manager.

00:15:18Ah, okay, in London?

00:15:19Yeah.

00:15:20What are your red flags?

00:15:21What's something that's a complete turn off?

00:15:23Neediness.

00:15:24Oh, is it?

00:15:25It's a turn off.

00:15:26I'm all about neediness.

00:15:27Want me, need me.

00:15:29What are your red flags?

00:15:31I'm so sorry.

00:15:32A man that works in finance is the biggest red flag for me.

00:15:36I'm so sorry.

00:15:40Is anyone like family members coming to the wedding?

00:15:42My dad is walking me down the aisle.

00:15:43Oh, amazing.

00:15:44Which is lovely because he's just my absolute rock in my world.

00:15:48Love that.

00:15:49But yeah, I lost my mum when I was 22.

00:15:52She passed away.

00:15:53Yeah.

00:15:54So she won't be there.

00:15:56My mum was my hero, but around the age of 12, I noticed that she had a problem with alcohol.

00:16:08I would come home from school and I would find her intoxicated on the couch.

00:16:14So I had to take on a carer role essentially at a really young age.

00:16:19She almost became a different person, didn't she?

00:16:22And it was unpredictable.

00:16:23I think I used to get nervous coming home from school.

00:16:26Yeah.

00:16:28By the time I was 22, she was admitted to hospital for the final time and she passed away three days later.

00:16:37And then we went back to see her and she was so at peace, which is the comfort that I take from it.

00:16:48I miss her all the time.

00:16:59So I've sort of gone into most of my adult life obviously not having my mum.

00:17:03I do find it quite hard, especially going into life events and not having her there.

00:17:07It's one of those things like it's never really this like the same, but you just get on with it.

00:17:13I'm totally upset.

00:17:16She'd be absolutely buzzing.

00:17:17I know she will be watching this being like, go on, Saz.

00:17:20Like you've got this girl.

00:17:21So she's going to be so proud of me.

00:17:23And yeah.

00:17:24And we've got you.

00:17:25Her name is Julie.

00:17:26So to Julie.

00:17:27Julie.

00:17:29Thanks, everyone.

00:17:30With the stags and hens acquainted.

00:17:38It's time for the experts, Mel, Charlene and Paul to kick off this year's experiment.

00:17:43With all good people.

00:17:44So good to see you.

00:17:45Yes.

00:17:46We really hope you're enjoying getting to know each other on your final night of singledom.

00:18:00You are standing at the beginning of a journey that has the potential to change your life forever.

00:18:09We've worked hard for many months to match you with a perfect partner.

00:18:15What lies ahead will test you in ways that you could never have expected.

00:18:23It might be one of the toughest experiences of your life.

00:18:27But you're not doing this alone.

00:18:31You have Mel, Charlene and me to guide you every step of the way.

00:18:37And on that note, we will leave you to enjoy the last night of your old life with new friends.

00:18:45This is the craziest thing I've ever done.

00:18:51I'm marrying a stranger.

00:18:53It's become very real, very quick.

00:18:55I can't wait.

00:18:58My wedding's around the corner.

00:19:00I'm buzzing.

00:19:01Let's get married.

00:19:03I am dying for these experts to get it right.

00:19:10Like, if they can, I can't wait.

00:19:13I want the fairytale.

00:19:15Bring on the wedding.

00:19:16This is it.

00:19:26Oh, wow.

00:19:27Look at that.

00:19:28You look so beautiful, my baby.

00:19:31Across the UK.

00:19:32I'm excited to see you get married.

00:19:35Because you're my first granddaughter.

00:19:37I'm getting married.

00:19:38Favourite, aren't I?

00:19:39You are.

00:19:4018 nervous singles.

00:19:42Some impending nuptials.

00:19:44Yes!

00:19:45Yes!

00:19:46In the eyes, in the eyes.

00:19:47Come on.

00:19:48Are just days away from entering the life-changing married at first sight experiment.

00:19:52Hello, hello.

00:19:53Hiya, you all right?

00:19:55Who is your perfect wedding?

00:19:56You've got a match on more than just that primal level.

00:19:59I'm just ready for a fairytale now.

00:20:00I'm ready for my prince.

00:20:01It's just leaning.

00:20:02Yeah.

00:20:03Oh.

00:20:04Oh, hello!

00:20:05Do you feel like there are stereotypes that people put on folks from Newcastle?

00:20:10Yeah.

00:20:11I think everyone sings for all, like, proper loud rajus and that just, like, to party.

00:20:16I mean, they're not wrong.

00:20:19And of all this year's many applicants, the first to enter the experiment is 31-year-old

00:20:32Sarah.

00:20:33I usually don't get approached by men that often.

00:20:35I'm having too much of a good time.

00:20:36I'm on the dance floor, giving it the best moves.

00:20:39I'm like, yee-haw!

00:20:42My friends would describe me as a bit of a wild one.

00:20:49I am the party girl.

00:20:50I go out a lot, enjoy life.

00:20:53I'm definitely the one that's always in the dance floor up for a good time.

00:20:57I'll be carrying the trace of shots, bringing it back to everybody, making sure everyone

00:21:00is living their best life.

00:21:02Here you go!

00:21:03My usual type of guy would be referred to by my friends as a walking red flag.

00:21:09I just love a bad boy.

00:21:15Tattoos, big builds.

00:21:17I mean, sign me up.

00:21:20Like, hold my hands up.

00:21:22The usual types I go for are just guys that, yeah, are just a bit of an asshole.

00:21:27Like, do you know what I mean?

00:21:29So how's that been working out for you?

00:21:32Not great.

00:21:35I really want to find a nice guy and, yeah, that somebody is just going to be my night

00:21:40and shine armor.

00:21:42Yeah, I like that one with your mum.

00:21:44Yeah, that's lovely.

00:21:45That's a nice one.

00:21:46It has been a really hard few years since the passing of my mum.

00:21:50I have been through a lot.

00:21:52She's adored you and she was very, very proud of you.

00:21:55I initially felt unsure how to process that I wasn't going to see her again, but my mum's

00:22:02passing definitely brought my dad and I's relationship a lot closer.

00:22:07We now have an inseparable bond.

00:22:10I tell my dad everything.

00:22:12He is my rock and I would be lost without him.

00:22:17My dad has never approved of my past relationships.

00:22:21He has felt that they have just been, yeah, horrible to me.

00:22:25They usually start off very nice, very charming, lots of fun.

00:22:32They end up being super toxic.

00:22:34Usually they have cheated, ghosted.

00:22:37One of my exes was controlling.

00:22:40He had to know my whereabouts at all times.

00:22:43He completely isolated me from my friends and family.

00:22:46And I completely lost myself during that relationship.

00:22:52I was known as the bubbly, outgoing, confident person and my friends.

00:22:58I'm going to get upset.

00:23:00Didn't recognise me at the time.

00:23:02Oh my gosh, I'm sorry.

00:23:05And it took me a good bit of time to get myself back.

00:23:09I just pray that I never go through that again.

00:23:16It was hell at times.

00:23:20It has sort of put my walls up, put my barrier up.

00:23:23So I think it would probably take a really special person for me to sort of let them in again.

00:23:29So what needs to change then for you?

00:23:31I would say look for other qualities and realise looks aren't everything.

00:23:36And I do know that, you know, just look beyond the looks.

00:23:39Yeah.

00:23:43I absolutely do deserve love.

00:23:44I've got so much love to give.

00:23:46I've been giving it to the wrong people.

00:23:49I am now ready for the nice guy.

00:23:51I feel I deserve a nice guy.

00:23:54I need help from the experts to meet someone because I keep picking the wrong guy.

00:23:58So I am now putting all my faith and trust that they will find Mr. Right.

00:24:04My perfect husband would be someone who can match my energy.

00:24:10Absolutely lovely.

00:24:11Hilarious.

00:24:12A bit of a joker.

00:24:14Who can have fun with me.

00:24:16Have great sense of humour.

00:24:18And a big heart.

00:24:21If he doesn't look like what I would usually go for.

00:24:24Doesn't matter.

00:24:25I'm going to be open-minded.

00:24:26I want to settle down with the nicest guy in the world.

00:24:32I've always been the cute, nice guy.

00:24:34My favourite thing to do is to make people smile.

00:24:39My friends would describe me as a cheeky chap.

00:24:42I love to make sure people laugh and around me are having fun.

00:24:45I'm a wind-up.

00:24:46I'm more the clunky, awkward, fun guy that you'll hopefully fall in love with.

00:24:50I love them.

00:24:53I've been lucky enough to work in a variety of professions, all based around entertainment.

00:24:56I started years ago as a redcoat at Butlins, Pan Amimes, cruise ships.

00:25:01Also a jack of all trades.

00:25:02I do magic.

00:25:03I've done puppeteering.

00:25:04I can do circus skills, singing, rapping.

00:25:08But now, team building is the perfect job for me.

00:25:11Let me show you what you'll be doing for your first challenge.

00:25:14I get to play city games like maybe building marshmallow towers.

00:25:18Oh, no!

00:25:20I think it's rare to find, like, a bigger person who is confident.

00:25:23And that's the things that get thrown at me a lot.

00:25:24Like, cool, you've got a lot of confidence.

00:25:25But I think it just... anyone can be confident.

00:25:27You've just got to find it within yourself.

00:25:31Oh, my God.

00:25:32When you used to sing upstairs all the time,

00:25:34and I'd be like, Dean, shut up!

00:25:37Dean's got a lot of love to give.

00:25:39I just hope that she can give her all

00:25:41and make Dean as happy as I know Dean can make her.

00:25:43You were 16 when you met Dad, right?

00:25:45Yeah.

00:25:46Hey, look!

00:25:47That wedding picture, dear.

00:25:48My parents have been together for over 30 years.

00:25:50And my mum and dad are still in love.

00:25:52They're still kissed, they still laugh,

00:25:53they're still taking the mick, they'll still go out together.

00:25:56It's like eternal love.

00:25:58And I want what they have.

00:26:01Like, life's okay, I'm okay on my own,

00:26:03but it's so much better with a person there who's got your back.

00:26:07When I was younger,

00:26:08I never really got the attention of any girls

00:26:10because I wasn't that sexy guy.

00:26:12Dating was non-existent.

00:26:14Get cast off into the friend zone.

00:26:17I think I got up to, like, 22 stone.

00:26:19You're like, oh, mad.

00:26:20Like, okay, I need to kind of change

00:26:22and I wanted to get girls interested.

00:26:24I managed to actually lose about nine stone.

00:26:26And it added pressure to, like,

00:26:28stay looking a certain way,

00:26:29like, completely change who I was.

00:26:31And my friends call it, like, arrogant Dean.

00:26:33And then I started to put the weight back on again.

00:26:36But I was finding myself again

00:26:38and I was more confident in who I was.

00:26:41It's not a shameful thing to be bigger.

00:26:43It's just who you are.

00:26:44And if someone loves you, they'll love you for who you are.

00:26:47It's the person inside.

00:26:49When I'm in a relationship, I'm a hopeless romantic.

00:26:53I just love to make the person I'm with

00:26:55feel like a princess, feel like a queen.

00:26:57Bringing flowers.

00:26:59Sending cute messages.

00:27:01I'd write, like, love poems and stuff

00:27:03just to make them feel special.

00:27:04I remember one of the girls I was seeing,

00:27:06she's always wanted to go on a safari,

00:27:07but we couldn't afford to run a safari.

00:27:09So I brought loads of, like, you know, toy animals.

00:27:11And I was like, oh, you know, like, just, like,

00:27:13I love being, I love to make people feel loved.

00:27:16And when I'm in a relationship, I tend to give a lot

00:27:19because I love to do it.

00:27:21But it's not reciprocated back.

00:27:23Why do you think it is that you give so much so early on?

00:27:28If I think about it now,

00:27:29it's because I don't want them to leave.

00:27:31I've always been told I'm punching.

00:27:33I'm that type of guy that's always punching over someone.

00:27:35Everyone tells you they could do better.

00:27:37Then I guess you start to believe that they can do better.

00:27:40You are enough.

00:27:41Yeah.

00:27:42But I wonder if you believe that.

00:27:45I'd like to think so.

00:27:47I know I'd never rather be anyone else.

00:27:49I'm very happy with myself.

00:27:50I think I'm a good person.

00:27:52I try to be the best every day.

00:27:54And I just, um,

00:27:56hope someone can see it, really.

00:27:58The whole purpose of life is to be loved and to love somebody.

00:28:04I believe in the fairytale.

00:28:07I think if you're with the right person,

00:28:09every day can be magical and you can find magic in every moment.

00:28:12My perfect partner would be someone who's loving,

00:28:19who has a beautiful smile.

00:28:22You know when you can see someone's energy,

00:28:25I want to see that, just that warmth.

00:28:27When we meet, hopefully fireworks.

00:28:38This couple are a really interesting match

00:28:41with lots of similar values and qualities.

00:28:44Let's talk about Sarah first.

00:28:46Her Achilles heel is the bad boy,

00:28:49which she described as tall, tanned and tats.

00:28:52By her own admission,

00:28:54this type has led to pretty much nothing but heartache.

00:28:57Time after time, she's just been poorly treated.

00:29:00She's ready for a change.

00:29:01She's told us she wants to start looking beyond the physical.

00:29:04The nice guy is now top of her priority list.

00:29:07Absolutely.

00:29:08Dean is the ultimate good guy

00:29:10with a big heart that Sarah's been searching for.

00:29:13He's got boundless positive energy

00:29:15and an amazing passion for life.

00:29:17Their shared love of laughter is sure to unite them.

00:29:20Dean's respectful, loving nature

00:29:22is something Sarah's really been lacking

00:29:24in previous relationships.

00:29:26Yes.

00:29:27Dean is a nurturer.

00:29:28He wants someone who will reward him

00:29:30with the same love and support that he has to offer.

00:29:33They both get a kick out of being sociable,

00:29:36but home life and family are also really important to them.

00:29:41The first couple of this year's experiment,

00:29:43Sarah and Dean.

00:29:46I'm really excited about our next match.

00:29:50Get ready for Sparks.

00:29:52Hey, gorgeous.

00:29:55Welcome to my crib.

00:29:58I hate that I said that.

00:30:00I'm like a cheerleader.

00:30:01To the bathroom.

00:30:02Bubbly, enthusiastic.

00:30:03You could get a rugby team in that shower.

00:30:05I've tried.

00:30:06It's a mess because getting dressed is difficult

00:30:08and we'll pretend it's because I'm a young professional,

00:30:10but mostly I watch Gossip Girl.

00:30:12I'd also say I'm really stubborn and argumentative,

00:30:15but we'll just stick with those positives, yeah.

00:30:19I work in marketing all in the property world.

00:30:22I've done lots of show apartment launch events,

00:30:24coming up with great little captions.

00:30:29Hey.

00:30:30Hello, mother.

00:30:31My mum is an icon.

00:30:32My mum is the original icon.

00:30:34She'll get cake.

00:30:35Yeah.

00:30:36I like the thought of cake.

00:30:38She supports me in whatever I do.

00:30:41As long as I'm happy, my mum just supports that.

00:30:44Proud of you.

00:30:45Yeah.

00:30:50Would you say your mum is the strongest person you know?

00:30:52Yeah, 100%.

00:30:53Yeah, definitely.

00:30:57I don't think a parent should ever have to bury their child,

00:31:01and my mum lost her child.

00:31:04My brother had cerebral palsy.

00:31:07He passed away just before his 10th birthday.

00:31:11We were, yeah, we were close.

00:31:13We shared a bedroom for quite a lot of my childhood.

00:31:16We'd listen to music.

00:31:17We'd make silly noises with each other.

00:31:20I still remember, like, my mum driving us to school,

00:31:22and he'd be in the back of the car.

00:31:24We'd all be singing Lionel Richie or the Carpenters or Boney M's.

00:31:27Like, yeah.

00:31:28I've got nothing but happy memories of my brother.

00:31:30I think it's only been since I've been an adult

00:31:34and I've started actually working through that,

00:31:36that it's kind of sunk in.

00:31:38That feeling, not...

00:31:39Like, the feeling of, like, something being missing

00:31:41and not having that big brother.

00:31:42But when you lose a loved one,

00:31:43you become closer to the people that are there.

00:31:46Because you appreciate so much more what you've got

00:31:49and how fragile life in itself can be.

00:31:52So it just...

00:31:54You don't want to waste any form of moment.

00:31:56What kind of husband do you think I need?

00:32:00You just need somebody who's there for the right reasons.

00:32:03Somebody who's going to care about you.

00:32:05You know, be kind.

00:32:06But also who's going to want to have those dreams and goals with you.

00:32:10I have been single for seven years.

00:32:13It's been good to be single for this long

00:32:14because I think I...

00:32:15I needed that time.

00:32:16I needed time to grieve my divorce.

00:32:19My ex-husband and I met when I was 19.

00:32:21We were together for seven years.

00:32:23He...

00:32:24It was my first real relationship.

00:32:26He showed me the world.

00:32:27We traveled the world together.

00:32:28And he swept me off my feet.

00:32:29He showed me a life that I...

00:32:30I never even dreamed that I could have.

00:32:31So it was fabulous.

00:32:32It was amazing.

00:32:33But...

00:32:34Money doesn't buy happiness.

00:32:36And it is 100% the most miserable I have ever been.

00:32:40There was such a huge age difference.

00:32:42And...

00:32:43It was a huge age difference.

00:32:44And...

00:32:45It was a huge age difference.

00:32:46And...

00:32:47It was a huge age difference.

00:32:48And...

00:32:49It was a huge age difference.

00:32:51And...

00:32:52We were together for seven years.

00:32:53We were together for seven years.

00:32:55He...

00:32:56It was my first real relationship.

00:32:58And the most miserable I have ever been.

00:33:00There was such a huge age difference.

00:33:02And...

00:33:03We were different people when we met.

00:33:04To who we then grew into.

00:33:06And I think either you grow...

00:33:07Together.

00:33:08And grow as one.

00:33:09And as a team.

00:33:10Or...

00:33:11You grow apart.

00:33:12And that led to...

00:33:13Infidelity.

00:33:14On his side.

00:33:15And eventually we...

00:33:16Fell apart.

00:33:19I felt very isolated.

00:33:21Very alone.

00:33:23Became a much...

00:33:25Dimmer version of myself.

00:33:27Hi.

00:33:28Hi.

00:33:29Hi.

00:33:30Hi.

00:33:31How are we?

00:33:32It's taken a lot to rebuild.

00:33:34But...

00:33:35My previous marriage has prepared me for the experiment.

00:33:37Because I now...

00:33:38Understand.

00:33:39I deserve love as much as everyone else deserves love.

00:33:41All I want for you is that...

00:33:43You find someone that makes you happy.

00:33:45And allows you to be who you are.

00:33:53I need a husband who is...

00:33:55A patient.

00:33:56A...

00:33:57Gentleman.

00:33:58Calming.

00:33:59Because I can be, you know...

00:34:00A lot.

00:34:04Just kind eyes.

00:34:05There's...

00:34:06Nothing more beautiful than a pair of kind eyes.

00:34:10Eyes and smile.

00:34:12And hopefully funny.

00:34:14If not, I'm funny.

00:34:15It's fine.

00:34:16Hi everyone.

00:34:17I'll describe myself as...

00:34:18Bubbly.

00:34:19A lot of energy.

00:34:20I like to make people laugh.

00:34:21If I make people laugh...

00:34:22Kind of means that I'm flirting with you.

00:34:23I was born in Portugal.

00:34:24Raised in Paris.

00:34:25Mom is French.

00:34:26Dad's Portuguese.

00:34:27People find it quite attractive.

00:34:28When I say I speak four languages.

00:34:29They're like, oh my God, please say something.

00:34:30And it's normally in French.

00:34:31But I find Portuguese a little bit more sexy.

00:34:32Romantic French.

00:34:33Sexually, Portuguese.

00:34:36Being a flight attendant is beautiful.

00:34:37It's probably one of the best jobs in the world.

00:34:39One day I'm here.

00:34:40The other day I'm in New York.

00:34:41I was in New York.

00:34:42And I was in New York.

00:34:43I was born in Portugal.

00:34:44I was born in Portugal.

00:34:45I was born in Paris.

00:34:46I was born in Portugal.

00:34:47I was born in Paris.

00:34:48My mum is French.

00:34:49My mum is French.

00:34:50Dad's Portuguese.

00:34:51And I'm in Canada.

00:34:52Say personal news.

00:34:53Hey, Paul!

00:34:54Hi.

00:34:55Det Și.

00:34:56It's been a learned

00:34:59It's been a good day.

00:35:00To be honest.

00:35:01Being a flight attendant is beautiful.

00:35:02It's probably one of the best jobs in the world.

00:35:05One day I'm here.

00:35:06The other day I'm in New York.

00:35:07And next week I'm going to be in Jamaica.

00:35:08It's great.

00:35:09You leave the luxury life.

00:35:10You are in a hotel every day.

00:35:12But being a flight attendant it's probably the hardest job to date anyway.

00:35:15It's very lonely.

00:35:16You don't see your family.

00:35:17What's happening?

00:35:18Hello.

00:35:19How are you doing?

00:35:21very very important to me mommy's just my best friend she always did everything to be there by

00:35:26my side daddy's proper cheese like he's a man man doesn't talk about his feelings it's just

00:35:34i'm here to work i'm the man of the house and that's how it works that's how he was raised

00:35:38when my dad found out that i was gay and my dad didn't want to see me yeah

00:35:44i went straight to paris that's when i ended up on the streets i was homeless for a while

00:35:57it was very scary i was as a teen was sorry

00:36:08because my dad is not about the person he really isn't he was just he didn't know he needed to know

00:36:13better and um it took time to build up that relationship and it took a lot of effort from him

00:36:23i think then he understood that my sexuality doesn't change who i am

00:36:29it was just hard for him to understand because he never met anyone like me

00:36:33it took work on both sides but i love my dad he made me the man i am today

00:36:43at my age definitely i thought i would be married by now it's probably what i envisioned when

00:36:49i was in my previous relationship it was great i loved him i did and eight years together

00:36:56eight years wow engaged it just didn't work out so what happened

00:37:02they fell out of love for me and they loved someone else so yeah broke me

00:37:13i was so obsessed with the idea of it's going to work that i overlooked so many things

00:37:22and i shouldn't have never allowed that to to happen

00:37:25i'm 33 years old and is it the time to find love yes it is i don't want to feel alone and that

00:37:34i'm doing it by myself all the time i want to feel like someone is helping me out as well it's my time now

00:37:43whenever i envision my husband i always think of someone that is caring 100 themselves trustworthy

00:37:49energetic with dark hair not massively build but has some structure to himself has a nice little book

00:38:01that makes me laugh someone there is a good egg

00:38:10i just love the energy of these two they're both coming into the experiment with open hearts full of

00:38:16optimism and david ticks so many of kia's boxes he's handsome and outgoing with lots of emotional

00:38:24intelligence which i think will help kia open up and be vulnerable exactly kia tends to be loud and

00:38:31excitable which i suspect is a defense mechanism david more measured and grounded i think he can provide

00:38:38that safe space for kia to let his guard down and reveal who he is beyond the surface level they've

00:38:43both experienced a breakdown of long-term relationships kia a divorce and david a failed

00:38:49engagement so they'll share a strong need for trust and transparency kia is ready to be that supportive

00:38:56dedicated husband that david has been looking for if there's chemistry then they're potentially one of

00:39:03our strongest matches david and kia

00:39:22did you ever think it would be me getting married next no no no i'm nervous obviously um i can't believe the

00:39:31day is finally here that yeah i'm meeting my man what do you want to be waiting at the end i mean

00:39:39you know me looks wise that tall tanned hunky man some taps on the hats on there just be mindful there

00:39:45might not be what you want them to look like but maybe that's exactly what you need exactly who's

00:39:50completely the opposite of what you usually go for you're right i know to look beyond the tats

00:39:55sarah's usual type is basically just the absolute worst she has a lot of tunnel vision when it comes

00:40:02to guys so it's definitely time for her to meet someone who just treats her nice i'm really hoping

00:40:08he has good energy and like good vibes you know i think like fun is important that's like the thing

00:40:14yeah it's so important to me so yeah hopefully he's the same

00:40:18so coming in looking good how you feeling excited not nervous i'm way more excited than i am nervous

00:40:24100 this is the most exciting day of my life hopefully i'm marrying a stranger today that's

00:40:32crazy literally in a few hours so i want to turn around and like see her and like my breath get taken

00:40:37away i want a wow moment i'm just scared about if she'll like what she sees in it dean does deserve to be

00:40:43happy and have someone look after him because he's so caring and attentive to his friends and family

00:40:48and i hope the girl who he marries realizes how lucky she is i just hope she gives it a chance because

00:40:55i might not be what she wants at first sight you know and that's genuinely like a little bit of a

00:40:58worry yeah yeah i think she needs to know me before me so i'm gonna try and come in and like be my full

00:41:04self i'm ready i'm excited excited to do this little rap as well you know yeah right yeah at least

00:41:13you're ready for it we've been made aware that our wraps is going to be coming today at some point

00:41:18it's a bold statement just be ready for your bits

00:41:20go on tell us then what are you expecting to see at the end of the aisle

00:41:33uh what am i expecting to see a man hopefully i'd really like it to be exciting wouldn't that

00:41:38be great i cannot believe this day is it i hope my husband right now is a

00:41:45pool of anxiety just like me so we can be in this together

00:41:50you okay thank you yeah i'm fine sure fine

00:41:59as fine as one can be when you're getting married to a stranger to be fair with you

00:42:07have you spoken to your mom yet no i'm gonna call her later on yeah it'll be good just to like

00:42:14hear her advice on on stuff it's important to ask my mom for any tips for a good

00:42:20happy marriage because if anyone will tell me the truth will be blah blah

00:42:26this being your second marriage how are you going to approach that conversation with

00:42:32your new husband um i think i well no i know i i'm gonna tell him on a different day today's meant to be

00:42:39about us starting a relationship together i don't think it's appropriate to bring up a past relationship

00:42:44and make it about something else i think it's a beautiful thing to want to make the day about

00:42:48the two of you but i think you should start it off on honesty personally i think you definitely need

00:42:54to be more vulnerable yeah i don't think you've allowed yourself to be vulnerable very often

00:42:59um it takes a lot for me to be vulnerable but that's part of why i'm here to understand how to

00:43:11love and be loved while being vulnerable

00:43:25i do feel protective because she's only got the one parent so i have to do do the job for two

00:43:48people really sorry it's okay it's okay come on you've got this pull yourself together can you

00:43:58believe it's actually here the day is here no no i haven't always warmed to sarah's partners i think

00:44:05sarah needs somebody who is reliable respectful and kind some of her previous partners have not met up

00:44:12to those standards can't wait to meet her i know neither can i are you all nervous as well

00:44:32in my previous relationships i've always put my partner on a pedestal

00:44:47and i now want that i want them to be proud to be with me

00:44:53i'm excited about meeting my wife

00:44:57hopefully she'll like what she sees

00:45:02i am shitting myself

00:45:08have an open mind okay don't rush to judgment too quickly yeah all right

00:50:27Yeah, I'll say it's all right, yeah.

00:50:29She has passed the vibe check.

00:50:33The vibe check is off the scale, you know.

00:50:36I've lucked out.

00:50:38So, yeah, I'm happy, very happy.

00:50:40Dean is such a lovely guy.

00:50:43But I'm going to be completely honest.

00:50:46I don't want to rip his clothes off.

00:50:52Sorry.

00:50:54No.

00:50:54Oh, my God.

00:51:08You look gorgeous, Mum.

00:51:09Oh, look at you.

00:51:11I'm going to cry.

00:51:13Mum's my hero.

00:51:15I think my mum, a lot of the time, can know me better than I know myself.

00:51:18I wasn't always, I wasn't supportive the first time you got, oh, I'm going to get, you got

00:51:24married, okay, because I just, I just thought you were too young.

00:51:27But this time, my plan is to be really supportive.

00:51:30I think you've grown, you've matured, and I think you know a lot more about what you want.

00:51:35So, sorry for the first time around.

00:51:37Mum, you're perfect.

00:51:38But I'll be here for this one.

00:51:39Hey, stop.

00:51:39No, you're okay.

00:51:40I'm proud of where he is today after having seen him struggle.

00:51:48To do this takes courage.

00:51:50It takes bearing your soul.

00:51:52And that, to me, I am incredibly proud of anybody that can, sorry, that can step up and do that.

00:52:03I think just go into it with your eyes wide open and just, just take everything you can from it.

00:52:09And if it's the love of your life, hey-ho.

00:52:12Hopefully, hopefully, fingers crossed.

00:52:14That's what we want.

00:52:14It's the biggest day of my life.

00:52:27I'm so nervous.

00:52:29I'm trying to call my mum.

00:52:30She's not picking up.

00:52:33Nope.

00:52:35I would mean the world if my mum could be here today.

00:52:38But my family lives in Paris, and they can't be here for the wedding.

00:52:43Let me try my brother.

00:52:44All I want is just talk to my mum.

00:53:02No, no, no, no.

00:53:03Do not do that.

00:53:07David.

00:53:12But you.

00:53:12Don't make me a surprise.

00:53:15My sister, my mum.

00:58:16Yeah.

00:58:17You're fantastic.

00:58:17Shake it off.

00:58:18Shake it off.

00:58:19Yes.

00:58:20Very happy.

00:58:21Beautiful smile.

00:58:22You too.

00:58:23Very happy.

00:58:23Oh, you're great.

00:58:24Oh, come here.

00:58:25I'm very happy.

00:58:26Me too.

00:58:27I'm very happy.

00:58:28Good.

00:58:29Brilliant.

00:58:29Awesome.

00:58:29Yeah, we've got this.

00:58:31All right.

00:58:31Yeah.

00:58:32Amazing.

00:58:33This is brilliant.

00:58:34Hello.

00:58:34Hi.

00:58:35Hi.

00:58:35We come together on this wonderful day to celebrate a truly special and memorable moment.

00:58:44It is time for you to both read your vows to one another, and we will begin with you, David.

00:58:49I hope you're feeling as nervous and excited as I am in this crazy adventure we're about to embark on.

00:59:02All fairy tales end with happily ever after.

00:59:06I guess we're meant to live our own ever after now.

00:59:10And like the rest of those fairy tales, we have no idea what happens next.

00:59:14Did Elsa ever come out as gay?

00:59:19How about us?

00:59:23So for the beginning of this crazy fairy tale of ours, I'll make you some small but very important promises.

00:59:31You're doing great.

00:59:34I promise to make you smile at least once a day.

00:59:37I promise to have your back as long as you want me to.

00:59:40I promise to hear you out and put myself in your shoes whenever you feel upset.

00:59:45In return, I'll ask you that you are truthful.

00:59:49That you are kind and 100% yourself.

00:59:53Because at the end of the day, we are now face to face for the first time, about to start our own ever after.

01:00:00Let's do this marriage thing right.

01:00:02That was beautiful.

01:00:03Yeah?

01:00:03That was so beautiful.

01:00:04That was beautiful.

01:00:05That was really beautiful.

01:00:06That was beautiful in the world.

01:00:07I know that was only to do so.

01:00:08I got you about it.

01:00:08You did amazing.

01:00:09I got you.

01:00:14Are you good?

01:00:15For something great to happen, we must close our eyes and jump.

01:00:27So today, that's what we're here to do.

01:00:29Committing to staying together through and through.

01:00:31I can't promise the wind speed will be perfect.

01:00:37That I won't panic along the way.

01:00:40The magnitude may be daunting, but together, we'll always be okay.

01:00:46Just know that I will hold your hand right up to the edge.

01:00:49And won't let go as we dive into the journey ahead.

01:00:56And when we land with both feet on the ground, I have no doubt a connection will have been found.

01:01:12Kia, I give you this ring.

01:01:14As a symbol of my commitment to you.

01:01:16As we begin this exciting new journey together.

01:01:20Please wear this ring with pride and joy.

01:01:24David, I give you this ring.

01:01:26As a symbol of my commitment to you.

01:01:29I promise to stand by you.

01:01:31Through the good times.

01:01:32As well as the challenging times.

01:01:36Ladies and gentlemen, would you all please join me in congratulating our wonderful couple.

01:01:40David and Kia, if you would like to, please share your first kiss.

01:01:44Do you want a high-five or can I kiss you?

01:01:46You can kiss me.

01:01:47Oh, Papa.

01:01:58Yes, David is a good kisser.

01:02:02Kia, he's very, very, very handsome.

01:02:05He makes me laugh already, so he's really good.

01:02:07Yeah.

01:02:08There's definite connection.

01:02:09I am absolutely giddy.

01:02:14I'm like a bloody schoolgirl with a crush.

01:02:17I'm so, so happy.

01:02:18He's just wonderful.

01:02:22I am taken.

01:02:24Don't talk to me.

01:02:24Don't flirt to me.

01:02:25Don't even look at me.

01:02:28I'm taken.

01:02:28Just get you guys together.

01:02:43Go on.

01:02:44Arm around your wife there, sir.

01:02:46You guys look good.

01:02:47Yeah, the experts have smashed it out of the park.

01:02:50Like, I couldn't have asked for anything there, I don't think.

01:02:53What do you like doing?

01:02:53Do you go to the gym?

01:02:55Yeah, that's what I like to say.

01:02:56You've got tattoos?

01:02:56No tattoos, no.

01:02:57Do you like tattoos?

01:02:58Yeah.

01:02:58Oh, God.

01:03:01I need to stop focusing on the tattoos, I know.

01:03:05If you could hold hands there, find a nice natural way, that's it.

01:03:10Are either of you romantic?

01:03:12Yeah.

01:03:12No.

01:03:12Oh, you're not.

01:03:13I'm very romantic.

01:03:14Well, I don't know, but not too much.

01:03:17Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:03:18I'm very romantic.

01:03:19Are you?

01:03:19But how much are we talking?

01:03:21Well, I could write a rap for you, you know, things like that.

01:03:23Yeah, but you wouldn't do that every weekend.

01:03:26No.

01:03:27Wait, no, but tell me what else.

01:03:28Like, oh, I've done so many things.

01:03:29Tell me.

01:03:30I love being, do you not like being surprised?

01:03:32Eh, not, well, I don't know, it depends.

01:03:35I guess you didn't.

01:03:35Not over the top.

01:03:36Not like cringe, yeah, no, I have been over the top before.

01:03:38Have you?

01:03:38Because I love poems and things like that.

01:03:40Oh, please don't write me a poem.

01:03:41No.

01:03:42No.

01:03:43I don't want Dean to write me a poem.

01:03:46I don't want Dean to write me a poem.

01:03:51I don't, sorry.

01:03:52I don't know what we, I don't know, this feels a bit awkward, doesn't it?

01:03:55Yeah.

01:03:56Maybe she's not been romanced the right way, you know, but she's already not dead.

01:04:01So I'm going to show her how I think a woman should be treated.

01:04:04Low, round the waist.

01:04:05Lift up your arm.

01:04:06There you go.

01:04:07That's it.

01:04:08There you go.

01:04:08And really, really squeeze.

01:04:10That's it.

01:04:10Nice and tight.

01:04:11That's it.

01:04:12I just thought.

01:04:14I'm joking.

01:04:16No.

01:04:17I did not.

01:04:21I'm a little bit worried because all I can think of is I don't fancy you.

01:04:24So you can turn just to look at each other.

01:04:26Just stay connected.

01:04:27Keep that, keep that arm.

01:04:28Yeah, like physically.

01:04:29That's it.

01:04:29Yeah.

01:04:30He is so lovely.

01:04:33I can absolutely see why the experts have matched us together.

01:04:36I'm just sensing a friend vibe more than a romantic vibe.

01:04:42Cheers, thank you.

01:04:42You're done.

01:04:43That was lovely.

01:04:44It was good for me.

01:04:45It was good for you.

01:04:46And I haven't come here for a friend vibe.

01:04:48It was good for you.

01:04:50Yeah.

01:05:01How do you find this guy here?

01:05:04Cheerleader.

01:05:05Like, you know.

01:05:06You're the best.

01:05:07I like to be optimistic, loud.

01:05:09Okay.

01:05:10You're very loud.

01:05:10I'm very loud, yeah.

01:05:12Yeah.

01:05:13He is absolutely great.

01:05:15I'm really happy.

01:05:16I love what I've got to know so far.

01:05:20The nerves are gone.

01:05:21All I want to do is just hang out with him for a nap.

01:05:23How would your friends describe you?

01:05:25Funny.

01:05:26Love.

01:05:28Too caring sometimes.

01:05:29Okay.

01:05:30Yeah.

01:05:30My friends tell me all the time that I pour into everyone's cup.

01:05:34But never into my own.

01:05:36Okay.

01:05:36I'll pour into your cup.

01:05:37It's all right.

01:05:37Oh, cute.

01:05:38It's all right.

01:05:38I'll cover your cup.

01:05:39Oh, oh.

01:05:39Yeah, yeah.

01:05:40Did that again?

01:05:40Yeah.

01:05:41So cute.

01:05:44So cute.

01:05:44Very cute.

01:05:45I've got your cup covered.

01:05:46I've got your cup covered in.

01:05:49Shall I leave?

01:05:51It feels great being married.

01:05:55Daveed is calming, is grounding and fun, and it's just matching my energy in the best possible

01:06:00way.

01:06:01Tell me more.

01:06:02Tell me more.

01:06:03I want to know everything about you.

01:06:04I honestly want to know everything about you.

01:06:05I want to tell him that I have been divorced.

01:06:13But, like, there needs to be the right moment because I don't want to put a negative spin

01:06:19on a positive day.

01:06:20I want to know everything about you.

01:06:21I want to know everything about you.

01:06:22Hello.

01:06:23Hello.

01:06:23Hi, I'm Kia.

01:06:25Kia.

01:06:27Hi, lovely to meet you.

01:06:28I'm really glad that you both came.

01:06:31Really glad.

01:06:32He said we're really cute together.

01:06:40Oh, thank you.

01:06:41I can see that.

01:06:42Yeah, me too.

01:06:42Me too.

01:06:43I think my mom and my brothers are brutal means everything to me.

01:06:47But, yeah, I'm catching flights back to Paris.

01:06:50And they have a taxi coming up to Victor Mall.

01:06:53I promise I will look after him.

01:06:55Good.

01:06:56So you do not have to worry.

01:06:58My mom like Kia.

01:07:00Yeah, she really loved him.

01:07:02We have this connection that my mom straight away saw.

01:07:04We've been paired for a reason, and I believe that 100%.

01:07:07I want to know him more.

01:07:10I really do.

01:07:17Cheers, guys.

01:07:19Oh, yeah, cheers.

01:07:20Cheers, I used to.

01:07:20I know.

01:07:20Cheers, I used to.

01:07:21Oh, sweet.

01:07:22Oh, I used to.

01:07:23Cheers, I used to.

01:07:28Are you happy?

01:07:31You know.

01:07:32Yeah.

01:07:33I knew as soon as you went to.

01:07:34Yeah, I knew you would.

01:07:34I knew you would.

01:07:36Yeah.

01:07:36You know, I was like, they're going to know.

01:07:38Yeah.

01:07:39My main concern is, obviously, there's not that initial attraction.

01:07:43There's not that initial spark between us, or in my opinion, anyway.

01:07:48He hasn't got any tattoos.

01:07:51Nah, nah.

01:07:52Like, he's actually being a muscle, and, like, he's got a really nice smile on that, so.

01:07:58I feel like you just want a little bit more bad boy for that.

01:08:01Mixed in with the rest.

01:08:02That would be nice.

01:08:03Yeah.

01:08:05It's not somebody she would genuinely go for, but that's a good thing, because we know it's

01:08:09not always the right choice.

01:08:12What's your usual type?

01:08:14Like, smaller than me, you know, which is hard, I guess.

01:08:17Well, you know, yeah.

01:08:19Bless you.

01:08:21What about yourself?

01:08:22My usual type is probably a bit of a walking, talking red flag.

01:08:27Oh, mad.

01:08:31I'm not going to lie.

01:08:32They usually look like they've just come out of jail.

01:08:33Oh, yeah.

01:08:34Oh, yeah.

01:08:37I'm very much not a bad boy.

01:08:38I'm actually very good.

01:08:39I'm like a mummy's boy.

01:08:41Yeah, yeah.

01:08:42I'm the furthest thing from a bad boy I think you could ever get, and maybe there's

01:08:47a reason.

01:08:47It's not worked in the past, and hopefully she's ready to be treated properly.

01:08:50What's happening now?

01:08:58What is about to happen right now?

01:09:01So, yeah.

01:09:02What is happening?

01:09:03So, so, so, so, so, like, um...

01:09:06What, the heck?

01:09:07I know you don't know me that well yet.

01:09:09So, I wanted to paint a picture of what, like, I see, what love can be, hopefully.

01:09:14Aww.

01:09:15Something like what's that?

01:09:16I love.

01:09:17I know.

01:09:18Oh, God.

01:09:27Sit me down in front of the fire.

01:09:30Sit me down with a heart of carb cocoa with you.

01:09:34Like, what the fuck?

01:09:36It's a little bit weird and a little bit awkward.

01:09:48I'm not an over-romantic person at all, and anything over the top does put me off.

01:09:56I don't know how to react to that.

01:09:58When things get tough, then we'll get better.

01:10:01When things get hard, we'll make them easy again.

01:10:06And I've known it from the moment that we met.

01:10:12I will never be alone.

01:10:16Cause you're my hope, my love, my life, the one, and you're my home.

01:10:20The song is just a bit much for me.

01:10:25Too much, too soon.

01:10:27Although, to be honest, I don't know if I would even like anyone writing a song for me after time.

01:10:32We'll build a life together, you and me.

01:10:40That was a nice touch a really nice touch

01:10:52I'm struggling a little bit can't lie and much more than I thought like I promise

01:10:56I'll like to you with the utmost respect for your daughter

01:10:59You know you always have this kind you just want to make sure she's okay and protect her you want to make sure she's okay

01:11:07Just give you the ick a little bit

01:11:10That's fun drapes for me. I'm not gonna lie. I can see why we've been matched. I can

01:11:16She's not there

01:11:19That's all

01:11:40Oh

01:11:48Welcome to the family

01:11:50This is literally all I have not even joking besides my family these people well now you have all of these people too

01:11:58Yeah, I know

01:12:00Oh, I hate that being soppy today

01:12:02I feel like they've known each other their whole life

01:12:08Yeah, yeah

01:12:10I'm really I'm so happy for them

01:12:12Jackie

01:12:14Hi, we're just gonna chat. We're just gonna have a little chat a little good chat

01:12:18Give us a hug you son-in-law

01:12:20Oh, I know

01:12:22I just think it's a brilliant match

01:12:24There's just a really good vibe there

01:12:26I am really hoping that they will come out with something very lasting

01:12:32How do you feel?

01:12:34Very very good. Yeah, did not expect him

01:12:36But I'm

01:12:38In the nicest way possible like it's the best surprise I was

01:12:40I just love his energy his energy is like

01:12:42It is lovely. He's absolutely

01:12:44He has a lot of insecurities

01:12:46Does it well? I'm not gonna tell you anything about Kier

01:12:48I think that needs to come from Kier

01:12:50It's wrong for me to say

01:12:52He will open up to you

01:12:54Yeah, I'm not gonna hurt him

01:12:56But it will take time

01:12:58And he as much as you're seeing a vibrance here

01:13:00There are times when he's incredibly quiet

01:13:04And I think he spent his whole life thinking that he has to perform for everyone

01:13:08Because that's what they expect

01:13:10Oh, Kier's a good laugh, you know, Kier's the life and soul of the party

01:13:16I think if you both just

01:13:20Embrace who you are

01:13:22Yeah, I love who he is though

01:13:24I have learned quite a lot

01:13:26There's a lot of barriers there

01:13:28Kier needs time to open up about them

01:13:30But I want to get to know him

01:13:32I need that emotional connection first

01:13:44Well

01:13:46How are you doing?

01:13:48Yeah, it's a lot

01:13:50Seems like he's a really nice guy

01:13:52I know, yeah

01:13:53He'll certainly look after you

01:13:54Looks like a protective sort of type

01:13:56You know

01:13:58I mean to be honest with you

01:14:00I'd far rather

01:14:02You know, you're safe with him

01:14:04Rather than somebody who's a bit

01:14:06Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

01:14:08A bit, um...

01:14:10That was the last one

01:14:12That was the last one.

01:14:15Aw, that's so cute.

01:14:17Look at the way he's looking.

01:14:19I know.

01:14:20He's listening, right?

01:14:22He's not, he doesn't strike me as somebody who's like full of himself.

01:14:25No, he's no, definitely not.

01:14:27Yeah, yeah.

01:14:29He obviously likes a laugh.

01:14:30How do you like a laugh?

01:14:32Oh, there's no doubt about that.

01:14:34We're definitely going to have fun.

01:14:35I think you're going to have fun.

01:14:36I think he's the type of guy who would start with a sort of friendship with you.

01:14:42You know, I wouldn't, I wouldn't judge it too early.

01:14:45I wouldn't judge it too early.

01:14:47I would just go with the flow and enjoy it.

01:14:50You never, you never know in life.

01:14:54Dad's seal of approval is obviously vital to me,

01:14:57but I'm looking to find love in this process.

01:14:59And that initial attraction just isn't there.

01:15:02I've never really been in that position before.

01:15:06I've always fancied the guys that I've had a relationship with.

01:15:09My main concern moving forward, it's more just, will the spark come?

01:15:15I am not sure where I'm at at the moment.

01:15:20I don't know.

01:15:21I don't know.

01:15:21Still early days.

01:15:22Oh, this is great.

01:15:35Cheers.

01:15:35This is, cheers.

01:15:37Cheers.

01:15:38This is stunning.

01:15:40Mm-hmm.

01:15:40Today, I absolutely love the fact that you were unapologetic yourself.

01:15:51Because he's cute.

01:15:52He's fucking cute.

01:15:54But you're not going to be 110% all the time,

01:15:58and I'm going to get to know you besides that.

01:16:00Yeah.

01:16:01Vulnerability is really hard for me.

01:16:06Telling someone I'm divorced is scary.

01:16:10Right now, I feel like it is the right time to tell him.

01:16:15Um, yeah.

01:16:17Just, sorry, sorry.

01:16:19Am I fine?

01:16:20Yeah.

01:16:20Take a time.

01:16:21Um, I married my first boyfriend.

01:16:31How old were you?

01:16:32Uh, so I was 19 when we met, and he was 29 turning 30.

01:16:36Okay.

01:16:37Yeah.

01:16:38We were together for six and a half, nearly seven years.

01:16:41Okay.

01:16:42Married for the last year of it.

01:16:44Okay.

01:16:44And then our relationship became just, ugh, sorry, sorry.

01:16:53Am I fine?

01:16:53Uh.

01:16:54Take a time.

01:16:56Um, our relationship just became...

01:16:58You're good.

01:16:59So, yeah.

01:16:59You're good.

01:17:00You can talk about it.

01:17:01Our relationship just became really bad.

01:17:03Um, we brought out the worst from each other.

01:17:05He, she saw me.

01:17:08I left and filed for divorce, and that was the end of that.

01:17:14So, I was engaged for two years.

01:17:24I proposed.

01:17:26But, a very difficult breakup.

01:17:30Yeah.

01:17:31So, we both need the reassurance, and I think it's something we can build together.

01:17:34Yeah.

01:17:35Like, the trust we can build up together.

01:17:37It's not just me trusting you, it's you trusting me as well.

01:17:40It's fine.

01:17:40We're going to be fine.

01:17:44Everything you say to the answer you give is just, like, everything I ask for.

01:17:52Good.

01:17:53And he, so far, is the most perfect human being that the expert's going to set me up with.

01:18:02I'm enjoying you.

01:18:03Same.

01:18:04A lot.

01:18:05Yeah.

01:18:05A hundred percent.

01:18:06Yeah.

01:18:07We got this.

01:18:07Yeah, we do.

01:18:13Hmm.

01:18:13It's not easy to open up to someone that you literally met hours ago.

01:18:19It actually makes me happy that he's willing to be honest with me.

01:18:22Yeah.

01:18:22It has been the most perfect day.

01:18:35Daveed is ticking all the boxes, boxes I didn't even know I had.

01:18:44It makes me feel safe and it makes me laugh.

01:18:46What more can you want from a marriage?

01:18:47Today has been a massive whirlwind.

01:18:53There's been a lot of emotions.

01:18:57Now I'm just excited for what's to come.

01:19:04I can't believe we're here.

01:19:06Next time.

01:19:07This is like dreams.

01:19:08As the first set of newlyweds head on honeymoon.

01:19:12For Daveed and Kia.

01:19:14Do you want to see a rhino's horn?

01:19:15Is it the horn you're excited about?

01:19:16An innuendo too far.

01:19:18Everything has to be an innuendo or a joke.

01:19:21I need the ear part.

01:19:22Calls their match into question.

01:19:24Whoa, dude!

01:19:25And Dean's urge to perform.

01:19:27Say hallelujah.

01:19:27No!

01:19:28Irk's new wife, Sarah.

01:19:30The outburst of song and rapping really beginning to grate on me.

01:19:35Ahead of a frank confession.

01:19:36Have you ever been with anyone big or anything like that?

01:19:39No.

01:19:39Mm-mm.

01:19:40It's hard to hear that has left me feeling empty.

01:19:44And as two new couples say I do.

01:19:47I'm at a point in my life where I am looking for that real thing.

01:19:51One bride's show-stopping arrival.

01:19:53More on entrance.

01:19:54Spells a hopeful start to married life.

01:19:57I do fancy him.

01:19:58Tick, tick, tick.

01:20:00Hey.

01:20:01In stark contrast.

01:20:03I wouldn't say he's my type.

01:20:04To the other's wedding day meltdown.

01:20:08Oh, I don't, sorry.

01:20:09Oh, I don't.

01:20:13Oh, I don't really...

01:20:15Oh, I don't, sorry.

01:20:15Yeah.

01:20:16I don't.

01:20:19That's right.
