This programme contains strong language

Leisha told me she loved me. Previously.... Did you say it back? No, I didn't.

Time apart from their spouses... We don't know what forever looks like, so I can't just up and leave.

..exposed fears for the future.

For me, it shouldn't be this hard.

But it was the return of familiar faces...

She's back. Oh!

..that brought new betrayals.

He's a lying toad.

Julia-Ruth misses me.

Show the receipts, then.

Now it looks like you're BLEEP lying.

Do you know?

What's happened? Go on.

Have you slept with Joe?

Yep. And now you're after Stephen as well?

Are you all right? I'm giving both of you an apology.

Your behaviour - disgusting.

It's done.

There's no defending you.

Tonight....

Yeah! Final dinner party, guys!

..the couples come together one last time.

Wow.

But it's Leigh's actions...

If I'd kissed Leisha, you would have lost your head.

That's double standards.

..that sends her marriage into meltdown.

If this were to happen with you, it would be very different.

With you, it's not. Why would you kiss her back?

That's what I'm not getting.

She's arguing at me like a BLEEP lawyer.

Conversation's done. Attention-seeking bitch.

And as the experiment nears its climax...

I'm worried that I'm not going to be enough for you.

..shocking confessions threaten to tear it all apart.

Do you think your feelings will change

when we leave the experiment? Erm...

I'm worried we might lose that passion

and everything that we do have.

No reassurance whatsoever. Devastating answer.

..while hard truths...

Do you think I've been respectful in this marriage?

No.

..throw Leah's behaviour into the spotlight.

Leah, in Leigh's defence, you're a flirty person.

Come on, Bailey. She goes, "Oh, I'd sleep with her, I'd shag her,

"I'd turn her." If I said I would shag Leigh,

you wouldn't be happy.

Do I feel disrespected in those moments? Yes, I do.

BLEEP me. I'm done arguing. I'm done trying to defend myself.

It's ridiculous.

Morning. Morning, babe. You OK? Yeah, good.

It's morning at the apartments.

I feel like I've got a bit of FOMO.

What, from last night? Yeah.

The girls' day sounds juicy.

I don't think you want to be there, to be honest.

And some of the couples are reflecting

on the events of yesterday.

How was your boys' day out?

Boys day out was good.

I had a lovely day, to be honest.

OK! I guess there is more to tell.

So, basically, what happened is, Julia-Ruth slides into Joe's DMs.

He's like, "Oh, I'm going to Lanzarote for ten days."

And she's like, "Oh, maybe I should come."

So out she flies for 48 hours,

only 48 hours,

BLEEP Joe in Lanzarote and then completely airs her out.

Just ignores her.

So then she asks Stephen on a date cos she's like,

"Well, husband number three's a charm." So...

We asked to see his phone and he denied it.

I'm actually shooketh that Stephen would lie. Mm.

He's not known for his lies. I know. Mm-mm.

THEY LAUGH

Going into the last dinner party today is a wild thought.

Madness, yeah. It feels like we've blinked and it's happened.

I know. It's like that. Yeah.

So many little things we've done together

that has all just gone like that.

And we're about to walk in on the final day,

and then, the next day, we're out of here. Mm. Into the real world.

Yeah. The big, bad world. Are you ready?

Mad. No, I'm not ready for it to end. I'm not...

I'm not ready to leave here and to not have this

as our little home and our life together.

And I'm... Yeah, I'm not ready for it to end, honestly.

I'm panicking about what is next.

Bailey and I have some really big decisions to make

when it comes to the distance and where we'll live.

I think it's scary, and I'm sort of burying my head

in the sand that these next few days without him aren't coming.

But it's something that eventually we're going to have to face.

There's so much for me to think about.

I feel a bit deflated this morning.

Last night I got told by Leisha,

"Oh, by the way, I kissed your wife."

I think you love me, Leigh. I do.

Do you? Yeah.

Do you actual? Yeah.

Oh, come here.

Do you want to kiss me? Is that what you're trying to do?

That's what I was trying to do but... Do you want to go again?

You see? Yeah.

That's why I'm actually really pissed off with her.

Leigh's had a thing with Leisha and I

saying that she's flirted with me, I've flirted with her.

The piss-take is, she made such a hoo-ha about this with me.

Fuck me, I wasn't kissing her on the lips, though.

Ah! Hello.

We met a new couple today. Where?

When Leisha joined the experiment...

She's brunette. Blue eyes. Yeah.

Oh, of course you would BLEEP notice.

They're hot.

..Leigh took issue with Leah's comments about her.

"Leah, you'll be coupled with Leisha."

During Partner Swap Week...

No flirting.

Really? Just be respectful.

..Leigh made her boundaries clear.

How do you know that you haven't gone out and flirted

when you don't remember the majority of the day or the night?

I've been branded a flirt throughout this whole process.

Do you feel like you can trust Leah now?

I think I'd be lying if I said 100%.

The fact is, if I had have kissed her, she would have gone mad.

It's double standards.

Usually, I just like to try and squash it and sort it out.

But there's a lot of things I need to think about.

It's a lot to process.

I'm feeling very sad this morning.

Me and Rhys are obviously very aware that we're not the strongest couple.

Morning!

My feelings are stronger than his, which obviously scares me

because I want us to be on the same page when we leave here.

Did you have fun yesterday?

Yeah. Yesterday was such a good day.

Was it? Yeah. Nice.

How was yours? It was good.

Obviously, I missed you.

I always miss you.

So what was the chat you were having?

I was having a conversation about our bicker

going into the theme park on our final day.

You were acting horrible towards me. What are you talking about?

It's you, cos you're in a fucking mood.

If there's going to be an atmosphere all day, I'm just going to go.

I hate it. I fucking hate it.

You're the one who caused it at the beginning.

I'm just... No, I'm just worried that when we leave here,

like, is that it for us?

I don't know if I'm the one for Leisha.

If she's saying she needs more than what I'm giving her,

am I enough?

Listen, like, there's things that do make me think,

"Do I want that for the rest of my life?"

Just keep pushing him away.

Don't really know what to do.

I told them that's one thing I can't really stand - drama.

Mm-hm. No, you say sometimes I'm causing drama.

I'm really, really not. I don't like drama.

I'm just...

..struggling to articulate my feelings at the time.

I mean, we don't express it in a way that's good

because then it makes you shut down.

But what I really want to say is, "You're hurting my feelings."

And I want you to be like, "I hear you.

"Let's try and get a resolution on how to solve that."

Yeah.

You know? This is where I think we do go wrong.

See, where I do maybe do something to hurt your feelings...

Instead of you coming over

and having a conversation with me about it... Yeah.

You act in a different way... I go, like, I flip, don't I?

And I'm just like, "No worries. I ain't dealing with that."

It's safe to say, throughout this experiment,

mine and Leisha's relationship,

it literally, I think most of it does boil down to communication.

We have had a few ups and downs.

I do worry about the future with me and Leisha.

We've got tons in common,

but the things that I don't really like about Leisha

is the unnecessary arguments.

And they haven't really come to a stop.

So, going into the final dinner party today,

I am a bit concerned. If the arguments was to continue,

I probably couldn't see myself together with Leisha.

I'm feeling really vulnerable at the minute.

I know exactly where my heart lies.

But I am really scared of rejection.

It is weird saying to another person that you love them

and not getting it back.

But I just hope he reassures me that he does see

potentially falling in love with me.

It's just not right now.

Well, we've arrived at the final dinner party of the experiment.

What a journey it's been!

The highs, the lows, the drama,

all culminating in five couples remaining.

This is the last time that our couples will all be together

before they make the decision whether or not to renew their vows.

So I am so excited. Yeah.

Look at us being first of the last. Hey!

Hello, my little man.

Davide and Keye.

Last time we saw these two, they had a bit of an issue at home stay.

But it appears as if they've been able to overcome that.

Mm.

Do you know what this reminds me of?

What? Our first dinner party.

I was sat here and you were sat there.

Holding hands. Holding hands.

And I've never been happier.

I never thought that, yeah, I would meet anyone like you

and fall in love.

Given it's the last dinner party, it's understandable

that our couples are going to be quite sentimental.

And this is that opportunity to really look back

across the experiment and to remember the highs

and some of the lows.

And not every couple has made it to this stage. Mm!

So it's real success for them, isn't it,

that they've got here.

Are you going to talk to Leigh

about Leigh kissing Leisha on the girls' day?

Ooh! Wow.

Leigh kissing Leisha.

That doesn't make sense.

Well, we definitely need to find out a little bit more

about what's gone on there, cos that doesn't sound right at all.

No. Certainly not.

I don't think it was a full-on kiss.

I think it was just a peck. It's not a big deal,

but I understand how Leah was feeling,

because if it was the opposite case,

she would have made a massive thing about it. Yeah.

So I do understand that...

It can't be one rule for one and one for the other.

Yeah.

Why did Leigh do this? Mm.

She's the one who's always talked about boundaries. Right.

So why cross one? Right. Makes no sense. No.

Hi! Hello.

Hello. We're matching!

The happy couple, Rebecca and Bailey.

The last time we saw Bailey and Rebecca,

the big issue of distance in their relationship was coming up.

So what I'll be really interested to see tonight

is whether they've progressed that conversation

and are starting to actually make some decisions

about how they're going to navigate this.

Cheer, guys. The last evening.

Cheers!

Yeah. It feels like it's gone in the blink of an eye.

Yeah. Exactly that. Weird, isn't it?

Then it feels like I've known you a year or two.

Yeah. It's weird. How long do you feel like

you've known each other for?

A lifetime. Oh!

Ah...

Hey! Hi! Look at you two.

And here are the ladies in question.

They've walked in together like a unified couple.

Mwah, mwah.

But last time we saw these two, Leigh was accusing Leah of flirting.

And now it's really interesting that the tables have turned.

Where are you going.

Talk with the girls. Oh.

He's going to talk to Leigh and Leah

about the kiss between Leisha and Leigh yesterday.

I don't even know what that was.

No, Leish did say to Leah,

"Oh, by the way, I kissed your wife today."

And Leah went, "Where? And she was like, "On the lips."

How are you guys? Good. How are you? Good.

Are you OK?

Have you checked with her about yesterday?

Who brought it up?

Leisha was like, "I kissed your wife."

And Leigh was like, "Where?" And she's like, "On the lips."

Did she make it sound like it was a thing?

I think it's the way that Leisha said it.

It was like, "Oh, I kissed your wife,

"but, like, it's not a big deal."

Sorry, I'm just bamboozled that it's even a thing.

I literally kiss you on the lips. I kiss Keye on the lips,

I kiss everyone. It's just something that I do.

It's... I'm confused.

If I kissed Leisha, you would have lost your head.

That's double standards.

If I would have come to you and said,

"Oh, I kissed Leisha on the lips..."

It's because you've told me before that Leisha's been

forthcoming with you in situations and flirted,

so I think that makes the situation slightly different.

I'm really surprised by Leigh's response here. Yes.

Because usually she's quite emotionally mature enough

to acknowledge, you know, boundaries in relationships.

But, on this occasion, it kind of feels like she's making excuses

for her behaviour as opposed to really taking accountability.

Have you ever been paranoid about me and Leisha?

No, because I trust you.

It's more the double standards thing.

I'll take it. If it's made you feel a type of way,

then I apologise.

I did not mean anything by it.

I never assumed that that would ever be a problem.

The whole Leisha and Leigh kissing, she's trying to spin her side.

It's like, "Yeah, but it's different

"because I've thought you and Leisha were flirty before."

Yeah, you've thought that.

So if you do think Leisha's flirty

when she's drunk, then why did you let her kiss you?

Why do you think that's OK? Answer that.

She's going to try and spin it now.

If I'd done that, she would lose her fucking head.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

She's not bothered because I've kissed somebody on the lips.

It's probably because it's Leisha. OK, it is...

Trying to say it's double standards.

And I don't understand how that's the same.

It is a double standard.

Throughout the experiment,

Leigh has set the moral high ground,

and she's been speaking to Leah very much from the

"well, I wouldn't do that." And now here she is

having stepped into similar behaviour.

She's crossed a boundary,

but she was angry when Leah crossed the same boundary.

Leah, do you mind coming here? Come on.

Why does it have to be made into a big thing?

It's not a big thing.

I didn't ask for that. Honestly. It's fine.

I know, but you made it a big thing by going for a little walk.

If I'd done that, you would have lost your head.

Yes. Because you think I fancied her.

Because you have told me that Leisha

has flirted with you behind closed doors.

OK, but even if you knew that... So if we're going to do this,

we'll do this and we'll get it all out on the table.

She's really not hearing Leah's perspective here, is she? No.

There is a situation between you

and Leisha that holds a lot more weight.

So if you've got this situation in your head, yeah,

if that's the case, and Leisha is flirty

when she's drunk, why would you kiss her?

I don't know why you're doing this

like I've made that up out of thin air.

But if you know that, why would you kiss her back, then?

If you know that and you're a lesbian.

That's what I'm not getting. All I'm trying

to explain in this conversation is that if this were to

happen with you, it would be very different.

But with you, it's not.

I feel like me and Leah could go around

in circles having this argument.

It's not going to get anywhere. I was

trying to make you understand how the situation is different.

No, but... If you don't understand that

and you don't see that, that's fine.

The double standards doesn't sit right with me,

because the situation between Leah and Leisha is very different.

This is typical Leigh.

She gets on a high horse arguing at me like a fucking lawyer.

Like...

This whole process, I've had to justify myself

because I think people are good-looking.

Just admit you have double standards.

Drop it and move on.

I actually don't know where I stand with this person.

ALL GREET EACH OTHER

How are yous?

Don't kiss me, Leisha!

LAUGHTER

Oh, wow. Oh, too soon.

What Leigh has done there is really dismiss Leah's feelings.

Have I caused any drama? Oh...

Attention-seeking bitch.

Leah. Calm down. It's a bit annoying though. Let's be honest.

We were just having, like a ki-... Yeah, it was like...

It was literally just like that.

Leigh has created a disrespect cake. Yes.

Right? And then she put disrespect icing on the cake.

Yeah. Ooh. Yeah.

Have I caused shit?

No. Are you sure? Just a little, tiny bit of shit.

Oh, for God's sake!

Can we just squish this?

What are you saying, bro? You good? Yeah, you all right?

Cor, you lot came in at the right time.

It's been a bit awkward.

Yeah, about the kiss thing. Yeah. Today, just now?

Yeah, I think so. Yeah.

One thing we know about Reiss is he hates the drama. Yeah.

So hearing whispers of this kiss and the drama

that surrounds it is going to be pretty uncomfortable for him.

Yes.

You OK? Yeah. I'm just going to go and make sure

Reiss don't think I'm trying to fuck his wife.

Oh.

Are you annoyed?

To be honest, it is a little bit out of line,

a little bit, do you know what I'm saying? Fair enough.

Because, like, you are into girls at the end of the day, right?

And, like even though... Not Leisha. No.

Very far from my type.

If there's a boundary there between yous

as a couple that's been overstepped, I hear that.

Was it a good lock on the lips?

No, it was a peck.

If I went to say bye to Bec and pecked her on the lips,

would you care?

I would be less annoyed than if Leah did,

because Leah has flirted with Bec a little bit sometimes,

and I've been a bit like

"There's a line" and I've said it to Becs.

Do you know what I mean?

Be best friends. But the whole, like, sex jokes

and the whole "I'd turn her" and stuff is the line.

Well, now it's becoming apparent

that Bailey has taken issue with Leah's behaviour

at times and has perhaps felt

a little bit threatened, particularly in the knowledge,

I guess,

that Leah has quite openly said that Bec would be her type as well.

How do you feel about it all? Well, I have said to Leisha,

like, if the drama continues,

I won't put up with it

and I certainly won't stick around for it.

Well, of course, when we last saw Leisha and Reiss,

we had that uncomfortable conversation,

with her saying that she's at 100% and him only being at 80.

Reiss is essentially saying, "If you could just hold off on

"the drama for a while, then I might fall in love with you."

It kind of feels like he's testing Leisha.

You know, as soon as she makes a mistake,

then she's in the doghouse. Yeah.

My last relationship broke down because of drama.

Oh, really? You don't need it, do you?

Yeah. It's just my pet hate. Yeah.

Like, what's the point in it,

getting stressed out for, like, nothing? Yeah.

I do see a future with Leisha.

I don't know. I feel like we just need to get

on the same page a little bit.

It is frustrating,

because I have communicated that I don't like drama many times.

Now Leigh and Leisha shared a kiss and I'm still getting it.

All right? Yeah. I'm good. I just...

Just wanted to just catch Bailey's opinion, really,

you know, cos, like... Yeah.

It's not really on, is it?

At the end of the day, she is into girls, right?

She's my pal though.

She's my pal as well. I'm not kissing her,

you know, and she's not into boys, so I could say that to you.

This whole kiss scenario, to be honest,

is all being blown out of proportion.

It was just like a friendly kiss.

And it doesn't mean anything

In my eyes, I'm not into girls. They're my friends.

I'm just quite over-friendly and tactical.

But I would never do that with a man.

I feel like I sometimes can't ever do anything right.

I feel like I was a little bit anxious that obviously,

like, everything I do then is going to, like, push you away.

Do you know what I mean? And I'm just a wee bit sad about

that, cos I feel like I'm just being myself. Mm.

It's sad, isn't it, to hear Leisha saying,

"I feel like I can't be myself in this relationship."

You know, that's her essentially saying, "This does not feel like

"a safe space for me to open up and be real."

She's not trusting the relationship at this point.

I think the good sign, though,

is that Leisha is able to voice it with Reiss,

and it shows that there is like an emotionally

safe space for her to feel comfortable to do so.

Hey! Final dinner party, guys!

Our gorgeous happy couple. And, of course,

last time we saw Abi and John, they shared with us

that they have told each other that they love each other.

They are all-in. They are banking on this relationship

and talking about how they're going to take it to

the next level outside the experiment.

Hello! Oh, my gosh, you guys.

Wow, what an outfit.

Gorgeous. Stunning! Look at you.

How are yous two getting on?

You enjoyed the last couple of weeks?

Yeah, we've had a brilliant time, haven't we?

Had the best couple of weeks.

Yeah. He's already got a key to my apartment,

and I have a key to his as well,

so you can just let yourself in whenever. Wow.

Yeah. If you give your partner a key

to your apartment, that really shows signs of trust.

Absolutely. It's trust.

Do you feel comfortable to give Leisha a key at yours?

Mm. I don't know if we're at

that stage yet for me to give her a key. Right.

What do you think it would take you to get kind of there?

Just like a good run for a bit, yeah?

When we ain't really had that, like, good, solid run.

I feel like we kind of go like that and then back.

Do you know what I mean?

Like good, solid run. So how are you feeling

about her now?

Good. For now, don't speak too soon.

Don't jinx me.

Can you see a future with Leisha, though?

Let's say if the drama's not as... Yeah.

Like I was saying to the boys yesterday,

I was like, I have got close to, like,

feeling it, saying it, but then, like, well... Yeah.

This is positive, that Reiss could see

love between him and Leisha.

But then at the same time, the fact that he feels

like she keeps pushing him away is just unsettling,

because we are at the end of the experiment.

Ultimately, what he's saying is, "Leisha,

"you're bringing the drama to the relationship,

"and that's too much for me."

But he isn't taking accountability for his part in this.

This is not the time to be unsure of your partner. Yeah.

Does she know that as well? I haven't actually told her that.

I think you should tell her.

If you communicate kind of, like, where you're at,

I think that would just reassure her.

Mm. Mm. Yeah, I will.

It probably does take just a little bit more trust in her.

And maybe just like a little bit more communication,

a little reassurance from you.

And I feel like you will get to where you need to get to.

She absolutely adores you, Reiss. Yeah.

No, that's very sweet to hear.

How are you feeling about everything?

Like... Yeah. I mean, I'm in love.

And I've told him that, and he never said it back.

I want you to get out of that head space.

Like, I feel like if you let him, he will 100% get there.

So you don't think every time I do something,

it seems to, like, push us away, and it's an excuse to pull away more...

No, but I do think... No, I don't think... I feel like I have said this to you before

and you didn't take my advice. What was that?

I know sometimes some of the things that you do would put me off.

OK. And I feel like he's a bit similar to me.

Like, you're a fucking nightmare sometimes.

Cos you are. Yeah. I think what's happening with you is

that when you are with somebody like Reiss,

who is probably bordering on, like,

secure to avoidant... Yeah.

That makes you madly anxious. So you're trying to push and push

and push, trying to get all these answers.

And he's just completely retracting. Well,

you both need to find some security in your relationship.

I think I just want him to desire me the way I desire him. Yeah.

I mean, it's a bit chicken and egg, isn't it,

with Leisha and Reiss?

I wonder if he was to give her more reassurance,

would he see less drama?

And if he saw less drama,

would he be inclined to give more reassurance?

LAUGHTER

Oh, that's so pretty!

Oh! Oh!

ALL GREET EACH OTHER

How exciting is this? The final dinner party.

To our final dinner party. Cheers, guys.

I was a bit sad this morning. I'm excited,

but, like, no doubt sad about, like,

us not waking up together every morning.

It's a bit mad, isn't it? You know, when everything's been

so certain over the last few weeks

and now it's going to be uncertain, innit?

I also feel like it's the end of a chapter. Mm.

What's been everyone's highlight?

Mine has to be the wedding day.

You know, to have so many fears before the wedding day,

thinking about like, oh, you know, like,

"Will I be paired with the right person?"

And then, like, turning around and seeing Abi.

All my worries, like, disappeared. When he turned round,

there's these bright blue eyes. And I think that was, yeah,

- definitely my favourite moment to date. - Aw.

Abi and John, you can

really see love radiating from them.

And also you can see how important this

has been for them to meet the love of their lives.

And they've met each other, which is fantastic. Yeah.

Our high - my high, I don't know about yours - but like the

last night on our honeymoon, it was on the rooftop of the hotel.

They, like, set out this lovely table for us.

A load of candles. It was actually, like, amazing.

That's been my highlight. What about yours, Leish?

Yeah, I'd probably say the honeymoon. I think,

like, our wedding was like so overwhelming, wasn't it?

It was like so much. And then I think, on the honeymoon,

we just kind of connected and realised that,

like, we got on so well - we just had like fun.

And then I think the low points...

I think it was like the final date.

We was going to the theme park and, like, it just didn't go to plan.

I thought as soon as we got there we were going to be like

two little kids, like running around causing mischief.

But it wasn't - like, we walked

in there and, like, it just wasn't a good day.

Do you feel the same? Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, it's crap, isn't it?

I think we both just wanted it to be, like, such a good day.

And, yeah, it's just never nice when you do argue like that.

And, like, was maybe trying to be quite vulnerable

and quite, like, open from the start.

But I think I soon realised that you weren't

really on the same page as me at that point.

I don't know, I don't know why that bothers you,

because not everyone does go at the same pace

and, like, it shouldn't affect you.

Can I chime in? Go on.

That - exactly what just happened there - is the issue.

What, what happened there? So she's telling you

that she felt, she feels a type of way about something.

I'm trying to reassure her there - I'm saying... Hang on a minute.

Let me finish. She's told you how she feels about something.

And instead of saying, I understand

that you feel that way, I'm sorry that it makes you feel like that,

you know, we will get to the same place eventually

and giving reassurance. You've said, I don't understand

why you feel like that. You SHOULDN'T feel like that.

I don't get why you feel like that. That ain't reassurance.

Do you know think...? That is minimising her feelings. Yeah. OK.

This is really great advice from Leigh.

It's a shame that she isn't able to take her own advice,

though, with relation to this situation about the kiss.

But at the same time, I think Leigh does have a point.

You know, it's very clear here that Reiss is shutting down Leisha.

He's not allowing her to talk

about how that felt for her, and he's being quite dismissive.

Yeah.

I'm just trying to reassure Leisha.

Like, you don't need to be worried. Like, it's OK. Yeah. And I get it.

I think it's the way you deliver it.

OK, what do I say to that?

You would just say, like, you're all right to feel that way.

Don't panic. I'll get there.

Like, there's loads of... Yeah, but that's like a girl's way of,

like, delivering a message.

Oh. That was... You take that one, Paul. Yeah. Yeah, right?

I was going to say, no,

that's the MATURE way of delivering a message. Yes. Yes. Exactly.

I think it's more just having a little bit more understanding

on like me as like a person and being like... Yeah. You know

I can be a little bit emotional and I just want

a little bit of kindness back.

Like just that little bit of, like... You can't say I'm not...

The way you're wording it now is a bit dodgy, if you ask me.

No, not like kindness like that - kindness towards my emotions.

Understanding that you may not understand how I'm feeling,

but just being like... Maybe a bit softer.

A bit softer towards me, type of thing, because, yeah.

How would you feel if someone says like,

"Well, you can't feel like that"? I didn't say you can't feel like that.

No, no, no, no. Is that how it comes across? This is an example. Oh, OK.

Like, Leish, does it, do you feel reassured when he says it?

No.

I do feel like I could give Leisha the reassurance she needs.

I'm giving her so much more than what I would normally give anyway,

but clearly she's not happy with that.

Leisha, do you think it's because obviously

you've told Reiss that you love him?

And so do you think it's because he's obviously not there yet

then there's that insecurity there and that kind of worry... Yeah.

..and that's where it's coming from? Yeah, of course, I think, obviously,

because I know I'm not getting what I'm giving back,

which neither he should because, if he's not there yet,

I don't want it unless he's there.

So like, it's not like I want anybody to be like untrue.

It's just obviously I think like...

..I've gave him everything.

What do you want from him? Like, what would you want him to say?

Do you know what I want? Like, say we're in a room, I want to know

that I am the only person that's on the top of your priority list.

And the majority of the time, I feel pretty much at the bottom.

But, yeah, I don't - I think that's untrue.

OK, he's done it again. She's talking about, this is how I feel,

and he says, no, that's untrue.

And I'm pretty sure that, going into vow renewals,

she's going to be feeling pretty uncertain.

Honestly, you must want me to, like, smother you.

You won't be satisfied until I'm literally, like,

picking you up, babying you, it seems like.

Oh, Reiss. It's getting disrespectful, isn't it?

And, of course, this isn't what Leisha is saying.

What she's saying is that she just wants him

to acknowledge how she's feeling.

She's not asking for smothering.

She's not going over the top in terms of what she needs from him.

She wants basic respect and acknowledgement. Yes.

I think it's just so scary because we're leaving

on very different terms. And I'm like,

is it strong enough for it to...?

Do you know, I know it is for me. Like, I'll make, I'll travel to the

end of whatever to, to be with you but... Aw. I believe it is.

I think I'm just so scared of being hurt.

Honesty box for you, John.

THEY EXCLAIM

This is the final honesty box,

and it gives our couples an opportunity

to get those last feelings out on the table.

"Good evening.

"It's important you go into your final vow renewals with

"the clearest possible understanding of the state of your marriage.

"So we urge you all to

"be unflinchingly honest in your responses.

"Love, Paul, Mel and Charlene."

John, what sort of woman did you hope would be waiting for you

at the end of the aisle,

and how do I compare?

Firstly, I wanted somebody who wasn't too scared to smile.

And I asked for somebody with curves and...

Yeah! THEY CHEER

Hey, hey, hey!

I don't think they've ever been applauded before.

Thanks, guys. Thank you. Oh!

But those are the things I asked the experts for.

And then you've done things throughout this experiment

that, like, I've not known that I've needed.

I've not known that... Do you know what?

I'm probably not as secure about my personality than I've needed,

you know. Yes, I did need somebody that was really supportive

and would really champion me like you do.

I didn't ask the experts for that,

but that's exactly what I got and exactly what I needed as well.

So I've got even more than I said to the experts. Aw.

Guys! That's really cute.

Abi, what do you see in our future?

I see, obviously, I came into this experiment to find someone for life.

And I have found that. Like, I genuinely mean that.

Like, you are my soulmate. And I see that, like, in you.

All the qualities that I've ever wanted in a man, like, you have.

And I feel just so privileged to...

Aw!

I just feel so privileged to have you in my life.

You are what I've been waiting for.

And I think the reason why I have had failed relationships

and they've been so unsuccessful

is because it's led me to this point, to meet you.

I've never been so certain about my future before,

because it's with you. Whatever the future brings,

like, we'll do it together.

We'll find where we want to live.

We'll have a family and have, like, an incredible future together,

and that's all I've ever wanted.

And I'm just so thankful for you and I absolutely adore you.

I love you. I love you, too.

CHEERING Guys!

Love you too.

It's so cute.

That was great. Now that had to be the best speech we've ever heard,

right? Beautiful. It was great. Beautiful.

You can see that it really came from her heart and she really meant it.

And I think that's why we see the emotion there in John. Mm.

I love you. I love you, too.

How are you feeling about us taking our marriage into the real world?

There is parts of me that are worried

that...

..I'm not going to be enough for you.

That we will drift apart.

And you'll realise that I wasn't what you wanted.

I'm just worried that, in your world, I won't fit in

because I'm not enough.

In this relationship,

you know that you're enough. For your world,

I'm just afraid I'm not going to be enough. You ARE my world.

If you don't fit into my world, my world needs to change, not you.

I wonder how long this fear has been on Davide's mind.

You know, feeling not enough and concerns about the future.

But I'm hoping that Keye's words

were able to reassure him and put his mind at rest.

Bailey, please ask Rebecca,

"How do you truly feel about potentially leaving your life

"and family in Liverpool to become a wife in Brighton with me?"

How do I truly feel?

Torn. Confused. Worried.

I don't want to leave my family, friends and my life in Liverpool.

And I think the main worry for me is that, at my age now,

like, I want to have children in the future.

And if I left them,

I wouldn't experience that life

as like a mother and all of that with them.

How do you feel about potentially moving to Liverpool,

if you were flipping that around?

If it wasn't for Bluebelle, like, it wouldn't be a question.

Honestly, I would straight away,

probably straight after this, move up with Bec.

But also, I totally understand the situation

and I also wouldn't want to tear her away from my family.

But I want to be with her

and I want to be near her, so it's just so hard.

"Bailey, we are used to spending every moment together.

"Do you think your feelings will change

"when we leave the experiment due to the distance?"

Erm...

I... It's hard, isn't it, to answer?

Erm...

I feel like there's a bit of a worry that

when the intensity isn't there... Mmm.

..that something might change.

We might lose that intensity

and lose that passion and everything that we do have.

If I could bottle this relationship up right now, how it is,

this would be me forever.

I wouldn't change a thing.

And I'm worried that any of that bottle leaks out when we go home,

and it changes, that we might lose track

and lose grasp of something that IS perfect.

And that's probably my main worry.

Devastating answer. Yeah.

No reassurance whatsoever. Yeah.

That was not expected from Bailey.

I know. And the first time we've ever heard it!

Yes. We've never heard Bailey filled with doubt like this. I know.

I think also, leading into the vow renewal,

this is a bit of a curveball. And, you know, we're all shocked.

You can really clearly see that Rebecca is, too.

This is the first time I'm hearing about Bailey's concerns.

It's scary. And it's worrying that his feelings might change.

If our marriage didn't last,

I would be devastated.

BELLS TOLL

"Leisha, what aspects of my personality

"do you struggle with the most?"

Erm...

Probably your closed-off-ness?

Yeah.

You're not easy to read.

and I obviously then struggle with that,

but when I can't read you,

it goes in my head and I start spiralling... Mm-hm.

..rather than just like asking you. You are...

But I still feel like sometimes if I ask you,

you may not see it. Mm. Because you're quite closed.

Like when I'm like, "Oh, you all right?"

Then you kind of like go, "Yeah, why?"

Like, you say it like it's an attack thing.

Only if we've had a bit of a bicker, I'd be like... Yeah.

And then obviously, if we have a bit of an argument,

I will go a bit like shut-down kind of thing. Yeah.

And you'll go, "Are you right?"

And I'll be like, "Yeah, I'm fine."

But like, I'm not fine, obviously.

I just need them ten minutes, don't I, to just chill? But tell me.

Yeah, yeah. True.

Just be honest, in the moment.

Like, do you know what I mean? Yeah.

"Reiss, how likely do you think it is

"that we will still be together one year from now?"

Erm...

I just think it, obviously, there's a lot riding on

the next few months to see how we cope. Mm-hm.

And I feel like if we can get like on the same wave,

you know, like, if the arguments calm down... Yeah.

..all that kind of stuff,

then, yeah, I could see us together in a year's time.

What Reiss is essentially saying is,

"Leisha, as long as you don't bring any drama to me,

"then we might be together in a year." Mm. OK.

Yeah. Yeah.

A lot of the anxieties I get is just through fear.

Fear of like when we get out of here,

back into the real world and realistically, like,

we're not going to be with each other all the time

the way we are here.

So, like, will that connection drift apart?

I've came in here to find the love of my life,

and I definitely know I love you.

No response. No.

Leisha definitely has the right to feel that anxiety.

No response, no reassurance.

And unfortunately, they're not anywhere closer together today

than they were last week. Yeah.

I am scared, obviously, he's not trying to reassure me

to say like, "Don't worry,

"I'm not going anywhere and we'll make this work."

I'm just worried that we're going to lose that spark

and that we're just going to drift off.

It is emotionally draining.

Ah, God.

"Leigh, do you think I've been respectful in this marriage?"

SHE SCOFFS God.

Erm...

To my level of what I wanted coming in here...

..I don't think everything that you've done

has been 100% respectful, no.

I don't... I don't agree.

Oh.

I just think there's been certain times where, like,

you have made certain comments or you have done certain things

where I wouldn't have done.

Can you give examples, Leigh?

I think there was an uncomfortability around

the way Leah behaved towards Bec in the beginning.

Again, when Leisha came in

and then talking about the fact that you're her type and...

No, you asked me at the dinner table,

"Was she's more your type?" I said, "Yes."

You don't have to get outright...

It's literally, I'm just explaining... I know,

but I think you need the context as well, sometimes.

In Leigh's defence, you're a flirty person.

You are.

I've felt it sometimes. We've spoken about it.

Hang on. That's quite suggestive. Like saying,

"Oh, we've spoke about it." No, it's not.

And then you... And I said I didn't feel comfortable.

It's how Leah acts towards people

or comments that are made, or certain situations.

It's not a reciprocated situation with you.

I don't feel like I've ever...

No, you haven't. I didn't... I didn't say you have.

I know you two are close, Bec, and I've said... We are.

Like, best mates. I would never... Yeah, but...

Yeah, but sometimes your jokes have hit my nerves, sometimes.

And I've said it to you.

Well, she goes, "Oh, I'd sleep with her, I'd shag her, I'd turn her."

Leah never, ever makes jokes like that to me.

I'm not talking about privately, I'm talking about... Hang on.

..in front of us. That's what I'm saying,

because in a group setting,

she will be the person who will act jokey and go,

"Well, I'd shag ya." And that's disrespectful to me, though.

THEY TALK OVER EACH OTHER If I said, "I would shag Leigh..."

That's where the disrespect is. ..you wouldn't be happy.

But I don't say it like that - like, come on, Bailey.

Even joking, that's still...

That's the question! ..if we both feel it.

"Do I feel disrespected in those moments?" Yes, I do.

Bailey's felt it, I've felt it.

There's a limit between being friends

and like the sexual innuendos and the jokes.

OK.

For me, it bothers me when it's someone

that you've said, like, is your type.

I think that's where the disrespect is.

But just to clarify, I said,

"Dark hair - someone like her is more my type."

After the conversation... Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

No, but... But it's the s... The wording might be different,

but that's what I mean. Yeah, but...

That's the whole point of what I'm trying to say.

Leigh and Leah are probably in the worst place

they've ever been in. You know, being disrespectful to each other.

I think it's going to be really difficult for them

to move forward from this. Hmm.

Where does the land lie with it all? Do you know what I mean?

Like, for example, there was a conversation earlier at the mixer

about you two having a quick peck and that there was nothing IN that,

but that you felt like that was double standards.

Mmm.

So then is that OK that you two, in a platonic way, went and kissed?

Because if you did that, that would be against a boundary.

It's more also that the things that me and you have discussed

between us about Leisha and there being more flirtiness

when Leisha's had a drink.

Me and you both know there is more underneath that, Leah,

that makes it different.

But if you knew that about her, why would you kiss her, then?

I didn't kiss her. For one, she kissed me.

Fucking joking, mate.

But you allowed it to happen.

How is that OK?

When I couldn't even say, "You're a good-looking girl, like..."

It just doesn't add up.

She's allowed to kiss Leisha.

But I've been disrespectful?

Fuck me. It's ridiculous!

Had I never answered the question of -

"Are they more my type on the outside world?"

If I'd never answered that question,

you'd have never had a thing in your head of

"that would be a problem".

I just want to ask you,

did anything happen between you and Leisha in partner swap?

No.

Are you taking..? Are you joking?

I just... I've gotta - just had to ask the question.

This is just an absolute joke.

It's actually so disrespectful to me

and to Leah and to Reiss that this is even getting brought up.

And I don't know why this has even got into a thing,

cos it's so disrespectful.

I don't think it's anyone's place to say that's right or wrong.

I'm not 100% sure where my marriage is heading at this point

and what's going to happen at Final Vows.

All I've done throughout this whole process is justify myself.

But I'm done arguing.

I'm done trying to defend myself.

Final Vows are coming up, and I've definitely got

a lot to think about, especially after tonight.

Next time...

In her head, I fancy these people.

That is unfair on you.

..the experiment reaches its gripping climax...

I'm scared because it's something I want so badly.

I don't ever want to see your heart broken.

Do you think you're on the same page?

Mm-mm, I don't think so.

..as the first three couples face a life-changing decision...

There is feeling there.

But I actually don't know if Leigh will ever trust me.

If Reiss doesn't want to renew the vows,

my heart will be broken.

..whether to stay together...

Is love enough to make this work?

We've got a really deep connection.

But the good doesn't come without the bad.

..or end their marriages forever.

I've never wanted to hurt Leisha,

but I just need to be honest.

Leigh.

I always try to see the best in you.

But if I'm truly thinking about my future,

I need someone who trusts me without question.

You put pressure on me to move at a faster pace

than I was ready for, and I have questioned it all.

So, Leisha...
