00:00I want to be with somebody that truly just loves me for me.
00:05Previously...
00:07Getting married will change my life.
00:08It's just that final piece of the puzzle.
00:11Two new singles met and married at first sight.
00:14I actually fancy him.
00:16I love you, Leighton, you know, I'm like, oh!
00:19But an overexcited bride...
00:21Rang alarm bells for her groom.
00:24She's 100 miles an hour.
00:26I hope it doesn't turn until 1,000 miles an hour.
00:31Buckle up, because he's in for a good ride.
00:34For the existing couples...
00:36The presence of friends and family...
00:40Are you in love?
00:41...affirmed true feelings for some.
00:43I am in love with her.
00:44I can't imagine my life without her.
00:45I'm in love with Evee.
00:46Completely and utterly in every way.
00:48But for Julia, Ruth and Devani...
00:50You yelled at me multiple times.
00:53Did I not take accountability for her?
00:55I think you do now.
00:56It pulled them further apart.
00:59If I feel like I'm being attacked verbally,
01:02my body will shut down.
01:02This isn't normal.
01:08Tonight...
01:09I've had relationships,
01:11but never the kind that last forever.
01:13The final bride and groom join the experiment.
01:16There's so much riding on today.
01:18I've never been more ready in my life.
01:21Cheers, everyone.
01:22Cheers!
01:22Cheers!
01:23And as more couples reunite with loved ones...
01:26Have you discussed yet coming out?
01:29Maeve is forced to confront what lies ahead.
01:31I've not actually had that talk yet.
01:34I just hope it's not too good to be true.
01:38Were you disrespectful?
01:39Well, I'd said that I'd got a bit of the ick.
01:44F***ing mugging!
01:45While Dean is left questioning his marriage to Sarah.
01:49I don't want to ever be disrespected.
01:51She needs to not be allowed to say s*** and get away with it.
01:54Do I let go or do I stay and fight?
01:56Are you buzzing?
02:03That's Sophia's coming.
02:05I know.
02:06It's morning at the apartments
02:07and some couples are preparing to welcome friends and family
02:11for in-laws week.
02:13I actually can't wait, you know.
02:15I love Sophia with all my heart.
02:18You do know I'm going to cry?
02:19Are you?
02:19I'll probably, like, pass out.
02:22I cannot wait for my mate to get here.
02:25I've missed her so much.
02:26Jo means the absolute world to me,
02:28but so do me, mate.
02:30I hope she improves.
02:31I can't wait to see her reaction, to be honest.
02:35I need to not swear in front of your mum, though.
02:37Oh, she don't mind.
02:38No, I can't.
02:39Why?
02:39I can't.
02:40She don't mind.
02:41That's not OK, though.
02:43I think my mum will be surprised
02:45how well it is going between me and Maeve.
02:47She said she wasn't, like, 100% sure
02:49that it was going to work
02:51when she first sort of met us both together.
02:53So, yeah, she's definitely going to be shocked
02:54and I just can't wait to tell her.
02:56I think this literally could not have come at a better time.
02:59I think the last couple of weeks have been really tough.
03:02So, I think just seeing, like, one of my best friends
03:05is just going to be so good for me.
03:07Like...
03:07Oh, I can't wait to see her.
03:08It'll be good.
03:08Well, I remember meeting her at the wedding
03:09and she seemed really nice.
03:10Yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:11Chattie and lovely.
03:12And James, James is like, he's been my best friend.
03:13We've been friends since, like, we were four years old.
03:15Yeah.
03:15We've known each other since then
03:16and he's been my best man.
03:18He knows me more than anyone else as well.
03:19I am very much looking forward to seeing my best friend James.
03:23I want to get his take on how things are going.
03:25The conversation could get a little bit uncomfortable
03:27because we're going to talk openly and honestly
03:29and I've been disrespected.
03:31That's my biggest red flag.
03:32And if James knows that as well, he'll be defensive.
03:37He asked me if I'd ever slept with anyone.
03:39Fab.
03:39Okay.
03:40At the first dinner party, Sarah's comments about Dean...
03:45He keeps calling himself the funny fat kid.
03:48He's like a hair bear.
03:51How ridiculous, how petty, how low.
03:53And that's something that needs to end.
03:55Landed her in hot water with the experts.
03:58This man is talking about how lovely his partner is
04:02and you are on the other side of the room
04:04disrespecting him.
04:06It's not me.
04:07It's not who I am.
04:11Before a second slip up...
04:13I don't know if you heard.
04:15We had our first, like, argument.
04:17A member of the crew came down and Sarah said,
04:18oh, if you were straight, I'd be all over you.
04:21I don't think I can stay.
04:22What am I doing here?
04:23Put her in the firing line again.
04:26It was just a comment that I made.
04:28You're an adult and you're in a serious relationship here.
04:30It's time to actually take responsibility.
04:35I will tell them everything.
04:36Yeah.
04:36Because we have to, innit?
04:37And then see what they think, I guess.
04:39Mad.
04:40I definitely think the last couple of weeks
04:42have been really difficult.
04:43I am still hoping that in time
04:45things will change between Dean and I.
04:47I want to do what's right for us.
04:49The aim is to eventually get into
04:50a romantic, amazing marriage.
04:52But I am torn because the spark's just...
04:55It's just not quite there.
04:57I wish it was.
05:01As the original couples prepare
05:03for their nearest and dearest...
05:05If my friends don't like it,
05:07then it's a no-go.
05:08And she is very protective over me.
05:10You sure?
05:11Yeah.
05:12Excellent.
05:12Don't pressure on.
05:13That's just how it is.
05:15Shall we get this underway?
05:17Yeah, let's...
05:18For our guests.
05:18For our guests.
05:19For our best guests.
05:20I'm so excited.
05:21The experiment is about to welcome
05:25its final couple.
05:33I'm April and I'm from Weymouth.
05:36I don't...
05:37Look at the fucking camera.
05:37I'm so sorry.
05:39Do you want me to do it again?
05:41Bugs!
05:41I am one of the biggest extroverts
05:46you will meet.
05:47I mean, I do like being
05:48the centre of attention.
05:50You can hear my laugh
05:51from a mile away, I think.
05:53I could 1,000% get a laugh in the bed.
05:56If they're funny, I'm there.
05:58Do you know what I mean?
05:58Like, I'm just...
05:59Okay, let's just go.
06:04I would describe my personality
06:05as a free spirit.
06:07I do just do what I want.
06:08I love travelling.
06:09I always want a new adventure
06:11or something different.
06:13I want to be able to just
06:15fly to a different country tomorrow.
06:17Like, you know.
06:21Your crepe, my love.
06:23Thank you so much.
06:25I run a food stall
06:26and I love it.
06:29A 9-to-5 job
06:30doesn't give me the freedom I want.
06:32Thank you very much.
06:32Thank you very much.
06:33Have a nice day.
06:34Bye.
06:35Really not a fan of responsibility.
06:38In any way, shape or form.
06:39Should we cheers then
06:43to April marrying a stranger?
06:44Good luck.
06:45Good luck.
06:46Good luck.
06:46Good luck to him.
06:47Good luck to him, yeah.
06:48Good luck to him.
06:50I am really close to my siblings.
06:52I've got my sister, Sophia,
06:54two brothers, Joseph and Jason.
06:56They're all settled with kids.
06:58And I've got my nine nieces and nephews.
07:00Ready?
07:01Shock hands!
07:01And I've gone rogue.
07:06I've gone rogue, just travelling.
07:08Still single.
07:10I seem to be drawn to these emotionally inept men
07:14like a moth to a fucking flame.
07:16I don't get it.
07:18I don't...
07:19I'm like, Al, what?
07:20I'm sorry.
07:21You have trauma?
07:22For me.
07:22Come in.
07:23Get in my bed.
07:24Nah.
07:27I don't think there's any better feeling than love.
07:30When you're in it and when you've got it.
07:32Oh, it's incredible.
07:33But fuck, it can hurt.
07:35It can really hurt.
07:37Yeah.
07:37It can really hurt.
08:04Yeah.
08:07My last relationship broke me.
08:12We were building a life together
08:14and at the beginning I thought
08:16we were going to be together forever.
08:19I had to walk away
08:20because the trust was broken.
08:23He hid things from me,
08:26lied to my face for a year and a half.
08:30I struggled to actually physically walk away
08:32but luckily I did.
08:35And as much as the love was incredibly strong,
08:38it wasn't right.
08:40Just, oh yeah, the pain you can feel
08:42from a breakup is intense.
08:45It affected me a lot.
08:47A lot.
08:48I was just sad all the time.
08:51I was crying every day.
08:52I really didn't want to be single.
08:54But that point that you're speaking to
08:56is something that so many people go through.
08:59Yeah.
08:59I now am faced with being on my own.
09:03Yeah.
09:03And that was horrifying.
09:05I hated that at first.
09:06And then gradually over time,
09:07as it always does, time heals.
09:09The only thing missing for me is a relationship.
09:12I'm so ready to get married
09:18and have that person for the rest of my life.
09:21In the past, I've not picked
09:22what you would deem to be healthy.
09:24I think I need somebody
09:25who's going to be spontaneous and adventurous,
09:28caring and emotionally mature.
09:30That would be ideal if they were.
09:33Funny.
09:34Confident.
09:36Weirdly like a mullet.
09:37All I've ever wanted
09:39is just to be in a happy, healthy relationship
09:41with just that pure love.
09:46Is my mullet okay?
09:48Looking great.
09:50Having a mullet means
09:51you don't take yourself too seriously
09:52and you don't really care
09:53what people think about you.
09:56My mates would probably describe me
09:58as a social hand grenade.
10:00Pull the pin, throw me,
10:02and I'll just, boom,
10:03light up the room.
10:05Hot Dog Sanchez is my alter ego.
10:08I was dared to enter
10:10the World Hot Dog Eating Competition
10:12and the name just stuck ever since.
10:14It's a hot dog!
10:16It's a hot dog!
10:18Some of the craziest things
10:19I've ever done in my life.
10:20I am the undisputed
10:22Australian World Cheese Rolling Champion.
10:26I like to do fire juggling,
10:29nunchucks,
10:31worked on farms,
10:33worked as a cocktail bartender,
10:35worked in a steel factory,
10:36broke my back skiing when I was 19,
10:39moving to Australia when I was 18,
10:41got chased by kangaroos,
10:43got chased by a wombat.
10:45I'm a bit of a rocker,
10:46I'm a bit of a punk,
10:47and then I work for computers,
10:49so I'm also a bit of a nerd.
10:51This is our new performance comparison
10:53on our social media strategy for 2025.
10:56I love my job.
10:58I'm able to be very creative.
11:00When I started doing graphic design,
11:02I realized that it gives me the freedom
11:03to work from anywhere.
11:04It enabled me to travel the world.
11:06I am someone that enjoys traveling,
11:10because I don't like to be in one place.
11:11I like to move around a lot.
11:14Hot Dog Sanchez.
11:17It's my nickname.
11:18It is Leo, though, correct?
11:20It is Leo, yes.
11:22I've got two sides to me.
11:23I've got Hot Dog and I've got Leo.
11:25Leo has been quite vulnerable in his past.
11:28The Hot Dog's a bit of a facade,
11:30whereas Leo is the real me.
11:33In my past relationships,
11:35I have been all in,
11:36wear my heart on my sleeve,
11:37to my detriment sometimes as well.
11:41I've been single for five years,
11:43and I think I've been extremely unlucky in love.
11:46I do get blindsided,
11:48and I do fall in love quite easily.
11:52My last relationship,
11:54I was cheated on by my partner.
11:57I was gutted.
12:00I wondered what I personally had done wrong
12:02to have made her want to do this.
12:05Looking back on it,
12:06it was not the best relationship,
12:09but I learned a lot about myself.
12:10It's helped me grow as a person.
12:13How does the fact
12:14your previous partner cheated on you
12:16impact your ability to trust a new partner?
12:21Well, I think that's why
12:22I decided to be by myself for so long after.
12:26It's taken me a long time
12:27to heal from that experience.
12:30I really love myself again
12:31because I went through that journey
12:33of heartache
12:34and almost losing who I was as a person.
12:37That journey to healing,
12:40there's no definitive end time.
12:42Do you feel as if you've healed from that?
12:44I truly feel like now is the time
12:47that I can move on
12:48and be happy with someone else.
12:52My ideal Mrs. Hot Dog
12:54would be someone that likes to go
12:56travelling quite spontaneous,
12:58wants to grab life by the balls.
13:00A lot of girls these days
13:02are almost clone copies of each other.
13:05In a world full of Kardashians,
13:07I'm here to meet someone
13:08that's quite unique and out there
13:09that will match my personality.
13:13As well as being pretty bohemian,
13:16spontaneous and adventurous,
13:18April and Leo have a shared passion for travel.
13:21They have a great set of shared values
13:23when it comes to being freedom-loving
13:24and free-spirited.
13:26Both have also experienced heartbreak
13:29that led them to take a step back
13:31from serious dating.
13:33It's helped them understand
13:34what they truly need
13:36in a successful relationship.
13:37For April, it's not just about fun.
13:40She'll need Leo to bring the depth
13:42and emotional openness
13:43that was missing from her last relationship.
13:46As for Leo,
13:47he's ready to show April
13:49there's more to him
13:50than his fun-loving alter ego, Hot Dog.
13:53Beneath that playful exterior
13:55lies someone thoughtful
13:56and sensitive
13:57who's genuinely ready for love.
14:00There's so much common ground here.
14:02Leo will be drawn to April's energy
14:04and lust for life.
14:05And even on a physical level,
14:08I reckon Leo's alternative style
14:10will be something that kick-starts
14:12an immediate attraction.
14:14If this surface connection
14:16leads to something deeper,
14:18they could become the perfect match.
14:21April and Leo.
14:22I'm so nervous, I'm not going to lie.
14:35Why?
14:36I'm more nervous about having tea
14:38with you and Sophia.
14:39I'm going to get grilled.
14:40I can't wait for that.
14:43For In-Laws Week,
14:44Maeve and Joe are awaiting the arrival
14:46of Joe's mum, Bridget.
14:48We're so in this,
14:50like, you forget about everyone else
14:52and now they're coming into our bubble.
14:53I'm buzzing to see my mum today.
14:55My mum's everything to me.
14:57She's my best mate.
14:58I'm really nervous.
15:00Just be yourself.
15:01I like you, so she'll like you.
15:02Do you know what I mean?
15:04I'm so nervous seeing Bridget.
15:06It's important to me that she improves,
15:08which does make the situation
15:09a lot more stressful.
15:11Oh, my God.
15:12Come on, then.
15:12This is it.
15:13I do not meet her in such a moment
15:15that I just don't do
15:16and this is well out of my comfort zone right now.
15:18Hello!
15:19Hi!
15:20Hello.
15:22I'm so excited to see Joe today.
15:24I really want to know what's been going on.
15:27Hiya, you all right?
15:28Hiya, how are you, Ty?
15:29Hiya.
15:30Hiya.
15:31Good to see you.
15:32Today will be a good day
15:33to see how things are going with Maeve and Joe,
15:35if she's the right one for him or not.
15:37I am quite a good judge of character,
15:39so it'd be really nice
15:40to have a proper chat with her today
15:42and just get to know her a little bit more.
15:45How are we?
15:46We are actually good.
15:48Yeah, really good.
15:48Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
15:50We're really happy, aren't we?
15:51Yeah.
15:52We actually are.
15:54We've learned a lot about each other very quickly.
15:57We're very similar in, like, ways,
15:59as in we like our own space.
16:02She's like the life of the party,
16:04but she's, like, very soft,
16:05so, like, people don't really see that.
16:08You'll probably be happy to hear this.
16:09When I've had, like, little lulls and stuff,
16:11she's been very, very, like...
16:13Supportive.
16:14Yeah, yeah.
16:15She's been mint, honest.
16:16Oh, that's lovely.
16:18So you've got a lot of similarities.
16:19Yeah, we do.
16:20We actually have, though, haven't we?
16:21You have been well-matched.
16:22Have you got strong feelings for each other?
16:27Well, we did say we love each other.
16:29Oh, did you?
16:30Yeah.
16:30Yeah, in front of everyone.
16:31Oh, really?
16:32Yeah, yeah.
16:33Oh.
16:34We genuinely do have love for each other.
16:36Oh, wow.
16:37Yeah, yeah, yeah.
16:38I think they genuinely do feel as though
16:40they have a strong relationship.
16:43It's not impossible, is it,
16:44to fall in love in just a few weeks?
16:46When all this is finished here, Maeve,
16:49do you think there's a future for you and Jo going forward?
16:52We've just said we're taking it a day at a time, haven't we?
16:55Mm.
16:55We've got so much to go through, do you know what I mean, still?
16:58But I'd like to think there's some sort of future.
17:01She lives two hours away, stuff like that.
17:04Obviously, she's got a kid as well,
17:06and you don't really think about that.
17:08But right now, we just enjoy the moment.
17:11That's it.
17:11Wow.
17:13I'm going to go to the shops to get a few things for tonight.
17:19Yeah.
17:20Because you're cooking.
17:23I'm happy that Jo's mum improved.
17:25Like, that was a massive thing.
17:26I'll see you in a bit.
17:27All right.
17:28Bye.
17:29I was so nervous,
17:30but she just makes me feel proper calm.
17:31She's honestly an angel.
17:34Now with just us two,
17:36how do you really feel about it all?
17:38Is it all going okay?
17:39Yeah.
17:40It's actually moved a lot quicker than I thought it would,
17:42to be honest.
17:43Like, I certainly didn't think
17:45I was going to tell someone I love them.
17:47No.
17:48But that is like a thought in my mind as well.
17:50Is it just this whole, like, bubble that we're in
17:53that's creating this bond we've got?
17:56Yeah.
17:57And we're going to have to start thinking about, like,
17:59real-life stuff, you know?
18:00That's right.
18:01But it must come into your head sometimes.
18:03Do you think you'd be willing to relocate?
18:06Because Maeve can't relocate when she's got a son, can she?
18:09So it would be you.
18:10The only thing I would say is I'm so much more settled now
18:16than I've ever been in terms of at home, where I'm working.
18:20I've got to keep that in mind as well
18:21because I do genuinely, like, love where I am at the moment.
18:25Which is the most important.
18:27Yeah.
18:27She's the most important, whether where you live is the most important.
18:30Yeah, but I think if we love each other like we say we do,
18:34obviously we'll just try and make it work.
18:39Me going to Newcastle, I've said it's a long way to go
18:41until we get to that point because we're still really early
18:44into this experiment.
18:46But seeing my mum, it's made things a little bit more real
18:50because it's kind of broken the bubble we were in
18:52and it's definitely made us think about the real world.
18:56But, yeah, we're good.
18:59Honestly, at the bottom of my heart,
19:00she couldn't have done anything more for Maeve.
19:03If you're happy, I'm happy, Jo.
19:06Yeah.
19:06Because that's all I want for you, really.
19:08The day's finally arrived.
19:32This is mad.
19:33Actually mad.
19:35Getting ready to move today is my mum.
19:38And two of my bridesmaids, so Daisy and Jade.
19:41This is the biggest day of my life, so to have them here,
19:44it just makes the experience that much more special as well.
19:47So what is it that you're hoping is down the aisle then?
19:50I don't know. I haven't got a clue.
19:52I honestly weirdly don't even have like an image
19:54of what I think he's going to look like.
19:55It's really weird.
19:55It's just whoever makes me laugh.
19:57The more you laugh, the more, you know,
19:59you tend to fall in love with them, I think.
20:02Yeah, definitely.
20:03Personality is way more important for me.
20:06But I obviously need to fancy them, do you know what I mean?
20:09I prefer the rugged, like,
20:11looks like they don't take care of themselves look.
20:13You like bigger, quite masculine.
20:15Hairy, smelly.
20:17Yeah.
20:17Doesn't brush.
20:20Honestly, if he's 6'2", with a beard and a good hairline
20:23and good teeth, I'll be a happy lady.
20:26Today is the most important day of my life.
20:34I do some crazy stuff, but this definitely takes the cake.
20:38It's starting to feel really real.
20:43Hello!
20:45Oh, darling.
20:46How are you?
20:47Oh, look at you.
20:49You look gorgeous, sis.
20:50Amazing.
20:51Hello and lovely.
20:52Lovely to see you.
20:54My mum and my sister have really wanted me to meet someone
20:57for a long time now,
20:58so it's just great for her to see me on my big day.
21:02So have you been thinking about what she's going to look like,
21:05be like?
21:06I can see blonde and quite sort of feisty coming down the aisle.
21:11I think for you, I'd like her to be bubbly,
21:14a bit of fun, up for a bit of adventure, a bit spontaneous.
21:18Match my energy.
21:19I really want this to work.
21:21Really, really want it to work.
21:22He's had his share of heartbreak,
21:24and this is his chance to have love.
21:28And have his happy ever after.
21:29That's what we want.
21:31Yeah.
21:32What if she is more outgoing than you?
21:34I don't think I've met anyone that's more outrageous than me,
21:38but if I did, then I've got my work cut out for me, haven't I?
21:42I'm not nervous.
21:43Yeah.
21:43Come on.
21:44It is mainly excitement and feeling.
21:49I think that when I really start thinking about it,
21:52that's when, like, a bit of a drop in my stomach starts going.
21:55Do you know what I mean?
21:56What is it that's giving you that drop?
21:57I think that my worry is that where the last relationship was so toxic,
22:01I'm going to have a few scars.
22:02I really don't want to bring anything from the last relationship,
22:06and I really want to leave that behind and start afresh.
22:10Abel does deserve to be happy,
22:12because she has been in a few difficult relationships,
22:18so it's her turn now.
22:20I think, well, like, you love love so much.
22:22I think that's what can put those tinted glass on you.
22:26Love is great, and that's why I'm doing this, you know what I mean?
22:29I'm not giving up on trying to find somebody
22:31I want to spend the rest of my life with,
22:32because I do think it's out there.
22:34I really want you to be in a healthy relationship.
22:37No.
22:38Me too, man.
22:40Today is the biggest day.
22:43I'd honestly given up hope that I'd ever walk down the aisle.
22:46It's going to change my life.
22:47If this works out and we're the happy couple that I really hope to be,
22:51then this is exactly what I wanted for ages.
23:07This is my moment to finally meet the perfect woman for me.
23:12There's so much riding on today.
23:15I've never been more ready in my life.
23:17This could be the making of me, the making of my future.
23:22I just can't wait to meet my bride now.
23:24Nice and tall.
23:37Good looking.
23:38Yeah, he looks her type.
23:40Lovely.
23:41How you feeling, Leo?
23:43Good.
23:45How you doing?
23:46You all look great.
23:47You're looking sharp, mate.
23:48Go on.
23:48Scrubs up all right, don't you?
24:13Oh, he does.
24:13He looks amazing.
24:14I love love.
24:20Love just makes me happy.
24:23Meeting the love of my life would mean everything to me.
24:26I've had relationships, but never the kind that last forever.
24:31I hope that it is finally my turn.
24:33She's done.
24:55Oh, wow.
25:00Hi.
25:01Hello.
25:02Nice to meet you.
25:03Hello.
25:04I'm Leo.
25:08Lovely to meet you.
25:09And you?
25:10What do you say your name was?
25:10Leo.
25:11Leo.
25:11Hi, Leo.
25:12What's your name?
25:13Who's called Leo?
25:13April.
25:14April.
25:15Yeah.
25:16April is definitely my type.
25:18She's got a beautiful smile right up my alley.
25:23I love the mullet.
25:24Love that.
25:25She likes the mullet.
25:26She loves it.
25:29I really like his mullet.
25:31And he's tall as well.
25:34So, yeah, I definitely think he's my type and I definitely fancy him.
25:40Okay.
25:40Shake it off.
25:41Hello, mystery man.
25:44This is a bit unconventional, isn't it?
25:48Um, but I've never been one to lead a conventional lifestyle.
25:51Let me give you a bit of an introduction to me.
25:55I'm easygoing, so if I'm ever in a mood, just give me a glass of wine and a cuddle, and I'll soon have a smile on my face.
26:02I don't care about material things.
26:04However, I will ask you to explore as much of the world as possible with me, and join me in being as adventurous and spontaneous as we can be.
26:11I've shown up today with an open mind and an open heart, ready to take a chance on this experiment and on you.
26:19And I can't wait to start this new chapter together.
26:21I can't wait to start this new chapter.
26:27We may have just met, but I really believe this is the beginning of something amazing.
26:45I'm choosing to trust this process, to trust the experts, and most of all, to trust you.
26:52I promise to go into this marriage with an open heart and an open mind.
26:55I'll put in the work to really get to know you, your dreams, your fears, and what makes you, you.
27:05So here's to us starting this adventure together.
27:08My friends call me Hot Dog, and I hope you can be the catch-up to my mustard.
27:12The perfect pair for this journey, and I can't wait to see where it takes us.
27:16Oh, I love that.
27:22Isn't that exciting?
27:25If you're happy to do so, I invite you to share your first kiss.
27:31It's very obvious why I'd be matched with Leo.
27:33Pretty much every box that you could take from a first impression has probably been ticked.
27:37The experts have definitely done their job.
27:39April has exceeded my expectations.
27:41The minute we locked eyes, I felt the vibe.
27:43To be honest, she's just a bit of me.
27:49How long will the chips take?
27:51We can put them in, I guess.
27:52I would say stick the chips in at the minute.
27:53What happens next?
27:54Do I put water in with this?
27:55Yeah.
27:56Boil water.
27:57Yeah.
27:58Boil water.
27:59You'll need some lots of water.
28:00Yeah.
28:01But I can boil it on here, right?
28:02Or do you want me to pre-boil the water?
28:03I would pre-boil.
28:04OK.
28:05It was up to you if you do how you want to do, I'm not going to tell you what to do.
28:11How long will the chips take? We can put them in, I guess.
28:14I would say stick the chips in at the minute.
28:16What happens next? Do I put water in with this?
28:18Yeah, boil water. You'll need some bottles of water, yeah.
28:21But I can boil it on here, right?
28:23Or do you want me to pre-boil the water?
28:25I would pre-boil.
28:27OK. We can do that.
28:28But it's up to you if you want to...
28:30You do how you want to do. I'm not going to tell you what to do.
28:32Back at the apartments, Sarah and Dean are anticipating
28:35the arrival of Dean's friend James and Sarah's friend Caitlin.
28:39Are you excited to see Caitlin?
28:41Can't wait! I'm so excited.
28:43Yeah, I'm excited.
28:47Look at you, nailing it.
28:49Ooh!
28:51Ooh!
28:59It seemed at the wedding, Sarah was a little bit reserved about Dean.
29:03So I'm hoping that they're getting on really well,
29:05even without the initial attraction
29:07and enjoying each other's company and the experiment.
29:11I'm proper shaking me! This is mental!
29:13It's so exciting! I've been so excited to see you!
29:16So, how are you guys doing?
29:19It's been a... I think it's...
29:20Odd.
29:21It's been a tough couple of weeks.
29:27It's very good that you're here for you.
29:28I think it's been really hard on Sarah, like, really tough.
29:30Yeah, it breathes off.
29:31Yeah, yeah.
29:32Needing a familiar face from home.
29:35OK.
29:39Oh!
29:40I'd better get the tour.
29:43Hey!
29:44Hello!
29:45How are you, man?
29:46How are you?
29:47Looking forward to seeing Dean and Sarah today.
29:49I'm excited to see where they're at.
29:50I've known Dean for 25-plus years,
29:52so if he needs to be told the hard truths, I can do that.
29:55Welcome, man.
29:56Good to have you.
29:58Welcome to our humble abode.
29:59Yeah.
30:00I know. Cheers, everyone.
30:01Cheers!
30:02Our first dinner guest, didn't we?
30:03I know.
30:04Cheers to Sarah and Dean.
30:06James might give me a bit of a grilling
30:08when he knows a little bit more about what's going on
30:10the last couple of weeks.
30:11I hope it's not going to be awkward.
30:13But, yeah, we'll see.
30:16How are things?
30:17Yeah, they're good.
30:18They're good.
30:19They've been up and down.
30:20But, like, we're probably in the best place, I think,
30:21we've been in since it started.
30:22Yeah, definitely.
30:23Still married.
30:26It's not bad at all.
30:27But, no, we've been getting on fine, haven't we?
30:29Honeymoon, how was it?
30:30Where'd you go?
30:31What'd you do?
30:32We went to the Maldives.
30:33It was good.
30:34It was definitely fun.
30:35We learned a lot about each other, didn't we?
30:36Yeah.
30:37Tell me one interesting fact you learned about Dean.
30:41Interesting fact.
30:46Oh.
30:47Oh, my goodness.
30:48There's so many.
30:49Yeah, there are so many.
30:52What interesting fact.
31:01Maybe magic tricks, I feel.
31:03I thought you were going to say that.
31:04Yeah.
31:05You can do magic tricks.
31:06Yeah.
31:07Oh, I love a magic trick.
31:08Yeah.
31:11I am a bit shocked that Sarah couldn't think of anything interesting about Dean.
31:14One of the most charismatic people I know.
31:16Anything that she had learned about him would have been an interesting fact.
31:20How are you finding married life together?
31:25All right, innit?
31:27Like, we have had ups and downs.
31:28We've had, like, commitment ceremonies where it's been a bit harsh on Sarah.
31:32I got shouted at.
31:33Yeah, she got shouted at on the first one.
31:34Oh.
31:35All for being disrespectful.
31:37Oh.
31:38What?
31:39Were you disrespectful?
31:40Well...
31:41I had said to the girls that I'd got a bit of the ick.
31:49Because of the jokes.
31:51And the singing.
31:53I had said to Dean previously that I wasn't a massive fan of them.
31:58And I think on the honeymoon it was just very intense.
32:01It is a horrible word.
32:04It came as a shock.
32:06He could be getting made a bit of a fool and disrespected.
32:09That makes me worried.
32:11Fucking muggy.
32:12I had said to the girls that I'd got a bit of the ick.
32:31Because of the jokes and the singing.
32:34I had said to Dean previously that I wasn't a massive fan of them.
32:39And I think on the honeymoon it was just very intense.
32:43You don't want to focus on bad things too much, do you?
32:45No, definitely not.
32:46And there hasn't really been...
32:47I never do.
32:48That was the only thing.
32:49And then we did have another argument.
32:51But that was...
32:52Yeah, that was another thought.
32:54It was me again.
32:56I've been here.
33:01I have said a couple of things that I haven't meant.
33:03Like, I'm not meaning to hurt you.
33:05Right, shall I plate up the food?
33:06Yeah, it's on that note.
33:07Lovely.
33:08I just want James to see that I am a good person and I don't mean anything badly towards Dean.
33:21We all make mistakes and it's just how we move forward.
33:24So, what has been working between you guys?
33:26Like, you said that you've had ups, downs.
33:28What's the things that have worked?
33:31Yeah, I mean, we obviously get on very well, don't we?
33:34So, yeah, that's good, isn't it?
33:36Yeah, really good.
33:38The only thing we're really far behind is, like, the intimacy side.
33:41Because we've not really done...
33:42We've not even kissed yet, you know, do you know what I mean?
33:44We're getting, like, just a slower burn type thing.
33:50Do you see you step into the next level?
33:54I don't know, I think, yeah.
33:55I want you to do it because you want to do it, not because you feel like you need to do it.
33:58Mm-hm.
33:59So, I don't think there is a set time.
34:00I think it will happen when it happens.
34:04It's hard not to feel pressure in this environment.
34:06The first week, when we then met all the other couples,
34:09we were comparing ourselves
34:11because they were all, like, a lot sort of further on, weren't they,
34:15in terms of, like, intimacy and...
34:16Yeah.
34:17Just at a different sort of stage, and I think I was a bit like,
34:20whoa, like, you know, we're not there yet.
34:22Don't put too much pressure on yourselves to, like, be at a certain stage.
34:26I think things will fall into place naturally if they're going to.
34:29That's what I say, I say it's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when.
34:31After seeing the pair of them today, I don't think it's as smooth sailing as they've made out.
34:39Disrespecting him behind his back is, like, double harsh.
34:42I just want my mate to be happy at the end of the day.
34:44I don't want him to come away looking a bit of a mug.
34:47Your mum's proper cute, like, isn't she? Yeah, she's awesome.
34:52She's a proper little sweetheart.
34:54I just want to see my mates now, though, as well, do you know what I mean?
34:57Well, at least my mate's coming. I know. Are you buzzing?
35:00Yeah, I can't wait, mate. I bet you can't, can you?
35:02Jo knows how much Sophia means to me.
35:05Hello! You OK? How are you?
35:07She knows me better than I know meself,
35:09and she will know straight away if I actually like him or not,
35:11so it has to go well.
35:14Oh, God!
35:22Oh, I've missed you so much.
35:25Go on, have a seat. Yeah, grab a seat.
35:29How are you getting on living together?
35:31Erm...
35:32We're actually all right, like, innit? Yeah.
35:34We're not, like, it's just chilled.
35:36What is it that you're enjoying about, Maeve?
35:39She's just a very, very nice person
35:41and she'd do anything for anyone.
35:43She's got an art of gold and I really see it.
35:46He did use the word love.
35:48Oh, did you?
35:50So did you.
35:51I do love you. I do.
35:57I'm not surprised to hear that Maeve's in love already.
36:00Maeve falls in love very quickly.
36:03Hopefully, they both mean it and that outside of this,
36:08that can continue.
36:09Have you discussed yet coming out?
36:12Not really.
36:13We've not actually thought about anything.
36:14We're just taking it a day at a time
36:16because when you rush shit, everything just gets messy.
36:19Yeah, and I feel like it's hard to, like, imagine what it'll be like
36:22outside of it. Yeah.
36:24But a massive thing is, Maeve has a son.
36:28Mm-hm.
36:29So would Joe come to Newcastle
36:31or is that not being discussed at all?
36:34You have Archie and you have to have him at school
36:36and you can't just sort of get up and move somewhere and, like,
36:40do you think that that could cause a problem for you?
36:46Possibly.
36:49I'd come to Newcastle, but we've just got a long way to go.
36:53It's such a long way.
36:54Yeah.
36:55We're just living in the moment, man, isn't it?
36:57Yeah.
36:58And then just see what's going.
36:59Yeah.
37:00I think Maeve and Joe not thinking about the future
37:03or talking about the future is to protect themselves,
37:07to stay inside the bubble.
37:09The reality is this isn't how real life's going to be.
37:13They do need to discuss it because it's going to happen.
37:16So I'm going to go and I'll leave you two to it.
37:20I'm so glad that me and Maeve have got some time...
37:24See you later, love.
37:25..to just really see how she feels away from Joe.
37:30Do you feel like there's any concerns about the marriage?
37:35Like, no, I haven't.
37:37But obviously we're going to have to talk about, like, the real world.
37:41Because right now we are in a bubble.
37:43Do you feel like everything's going too perfectly?
37:45Where's the bad?
37:46Where's the bad?
37:47Yeah, but then that's like me thinking, like,
37:48am I going to self-sabotage again?
37:50Right, OK.
37:51I'm trying to, like, go with it.
37:52Yeah.
37:53But at the same time I've still got that in the back of me head.
37:55Yeah.
37:56I mean, obviously you've just met with, like, a brief, like, dinner.
38:00But, like, does Joe have the seal of approval?
38:04He definitely does.
38:05But I just hope it's not too good to be true.
38:08Do you know what I mean?
38:09Yeah.
38:10Me too.
38:12Maeve seems very happy with Joe.
38:15My concern is leaving the experiment.
38:18Joe said he'll move for Maeve, which is massive.
38:22I just hope he's been honest about what he wants for his future.
38:26I don't know.
38:27You've got to take a day at a time on, haven't you?
38:29You do.
38:30You do.
38:31I wouldn't say Sophia's worried is, but I've not thought about the future.
38:34And to be honest, I don't really think Joe has,
38:37so maybe we should actually talk about moving.
38:39You've got to take a day at a time on, haven't you?
38:40You do.
38:41You do.
38:43I wouldn't say Sophia's worried is, but I've not thought about the future.
38:46And to be honest, I don't really think Joe has,
38:49so maybe we should actually talk about moving forward,
38:51what's actually going to happen.
38:53And we're not going to be in a bubble forever.
38:56and forward what's actually going to happen and we're not going to be in a bubble forever

39:54that's generally what i wanted someone to do as well oh my god where did they pick you out of
39:58my own catalogue i think well the experts have definitely done us both proud i think
40:03right thank you very much this is mad what do you do for work um i own a like a food store business
40:09so we go to like festivals and weddings we sell crepes and we sell hot dogs do you sell hot dogs
40:13there's no way wait so you travel quite a bit then yeah i love traveling do you do you ski i do
40:19i've done three ski seasons no way i did a ski season you were ticking every single box
40:26sparks been flying we've just hit it off and the chemistry is just there
40:31and if you can just turn and make eye contact for me there that's that's yeah that's nice just do that
40:36for me again will you that's really nice thank you i don't want to kiss you again as well
40:42yeah same
40:43i'm so happy didn't even have to ask
40:53there's definitely an attraction there we had lots in common
41:00he's traveled he has like a job that i really wanted to have do you know i mean like i just
41:05there's there was so many things that's what i wanted
41:08obviously the initial attraction wasn't there um for me he is he is so lovely he really really is
41:23and he has really supported me he puts me first he is just so kind you know we've got communication
41:30we're having fun it's just that spark and that obviously just isn't there
41:37i want it to come like of course i do like i want to feel that
41:42do i just kiss him and see what happens or
41:46i don't like i just i don't know i don't know what to do i'm just like
41:52i do think sometimes you can like fall in love with someone's personality
41:57still only like three weeks in it's so early days you know
42:02you can't force that spark if it isn't there and it's not to say that it won't come though
42:08caitlyn has my back when it comes to the intimacy i am torn because i want to do what's
42:16right for us but i don't want to have to feel that i have to force it
42:19the first commitment ceremony i'm not gonna lie it was a bit of a disaster
42:24so it wasn't great um and then i'd made a comment to one of the producers and said that i'd like
42:33found him attractive
42:34dean was there but it triggered dean he didn't like it
42:41again it was me being disrespectful and
42:46yeah it wasn't good and so i'm just being very very mindful of what i'm saying
42:54but it's now to the point where i honestly don't feel like i can really be myself
42:58like i've been really struggling
43:05it's like i've been really struggling
43:33but you have to remember in all this like you are a good person
43:40what you're getting thrown into is a totally intense situation
43:44you react in certain ways
43:46i'm not this horrible person like i have been through quite a bit and i feel like
43:50people are now have this narrative of me and i'm like that isn't me
43:53try and like take a step back when you're in these situations and like remember who you are
43:59yeah you're right yeah
44:01it sounds like things are maybe being interpreted
44:06in a way that isn't actually true to who thera is as a person
44:09it's not good to see her upset she's got a really really kind and loving personality
44:15and i just want that to come out a bit more
44:20look at this i'm so excited to finally be here oh my god thank you thank you so much
44:45hi how are you oh you're sat your lovely bride on hello darling oh

45:10to us so excited oh you are ridiculously handsome i really like your face
45:16he's a good face i mean there's definitely a spark i think definitely oh for sure yeah
45:28i don't have any worries currently i'm just excited i just want to get to know him more
45:34have a little flirt get here the nooks and crannies why not
45:39how long have you been single
45:41uh about five years now
45:43oh really yeah
45:45i was really worried you're gonna be like two months
45:47yeah
45:48i was off week actually
45:49yeah
45:51no my last relationship was
45:53it was toxic enough to put me off relationships for five years
45:56same
45:58really yeah i mean mine's two years but okay
46:01yeah i feel like right daisy that they've just written down what i wanted and then just
46:06told him to act
46:08yeah i'm feeling the same right now the feeling's mutual darling
46:13lee brought up about his past relationship he's quite reassuring with what he's been saying
46:18i prefer that he has been single for five years because it shows that he can be alone
46:22he's not just wanting to get into the next thing that comes his way
46:26which was really nice and comforting to hear
46:29it was just lovely
46:36good to finally get you one-on-one then after a group's around in so we can actually talk the truth
46:42it has been up and down it's not been like smooth sailing is by no means like
46:46she's very much had a vision in her head of what she's expecting and it was the complete opposite
46:50to me that attraction just just wasn't there you know there's there's hints to that because
46:55obviously she's talking about the intimacy and things like that like like as your friend from
47:00a outside point of view i don't know if there is like a genuine connection there
47:06take away the the bs the gemma in question does she find you attractive yes or no i don't think so
47:14do you think that that can change i think it can change yeah i think it's getting close i think
47:27it's leading there you know yeah argument's sake right if you're walking down the street
47:35would she hold your hand or would you hold hers oh yeah we hold hands yeah but who who initiates
47:39it hard initiate it yeah like you're the one that's initiating all of it yeah no that's a big thing
47:45i always do that and i don't know why i do that i feel like dean isn't getting what he's putting into
47:50this reciprocated by now i thought they would have at least kissed you know are you wasting your time here
47:57boy you said at the first commitment ceremony that there was a bit of an argument the first week was
48:06that she had gone round to the girls and said all these things about dina giving me the ick
48:10it's a strong word as well though yeah that must not be nice to hear it's just the thought that yeah
48:14you don't kind of want your wife saying stuff about you want her there being your cheerleader yeah yeah
48:18definitely not definitely not i don't want to ever be disrespected you know and you found it
48:22disrespectful yeah okay and she said this will never happen again i was like it can't ever happen
48:26again because that's it like that's a big thing to me yeah but then she should like made a comment
48:31like i like you're well fit to one of the production team oh you've just said oh if i get disrespected
48:40again after week one i'm not having it then she disrespected you a second time like you need to just
48:46act upon that going forward and she needs to not be allowed to say and get away with it
48:52i do feel like dean deserve better i didn't like hearing the ick comment you never want to see
49:00your mates get disrespected by anyone i am sort of worried for the boy it did help having james
49:07insight into what's been going on i am the one putting a lot of effort in i don't know if it is
49:12being reciprocated if you're not progressing then what are we doing you know am i wasting my time is
49:17there is there anything coming do i let go or do i stay and fight
49:31this is so large look at this
49:40how are you feeling i'm feeling great how are you feeling i am i'm feeling really good but i don't
49:45think it really could have gone better i don't mean you could have i'm honestly really stoked on
49:50meeting you meeting your family i definitely felt a spark yeah with you so what are you most looking
49:57forward to in this experiment i think genuinely just getting to know you and getting to know who
50:03you are and how how we'll work like currently i feel really hopeful and it's really nice good i
50:12didn't think i would think this way genuinely no honestly i've got into this experiment i thought
50:17there would at least be two or three hiccups yeah up to this point yeah oh yeah there hasn't really been
50:23any cheers to us husband and wife
50:41i'm so happy it couldn't have gone any better in my eyes me and april have got great chemistry
