Your match.

He no longer wanted
to be a part of the experiment.

VOICEOVER: Previously
Michael's devastating news...

I feel like somebody just ripped
my heart out of my chest.

Turned to hope.

We are looking at new matches
for you

because we want to find you
the fairy tale.

Meanwhile...

Just hoping she's not
going to think he's a boxer

and he's heartless and he doesn't
have the ability to love.

Kickboxer Jaden overcame
his own self doubt.

Were you this nervous bro?

To give Eden her fairy tale
wedding day.

It was perfect.
It was ten out of ten.

Before...

Quirky bride, Natalie.

All right, we're going.

Was besotted with her new groom.

I just want to wrap my arms
around him all the time.

But Colin's lack of
relationship experience.

Could you repeat that?

Saw him put on the brakes before
they even left for their honeymoon.

I know that it's going to take time
for me.

Slow burn.
Yeah. A real slow burn.

I'm feeling so upset.

Tonight,
the honeymoons are in full swing.

We just got along so well.

Feels like I've known him
forever.

As romantic sparks...

The honeymoon life suits us.

Start to form.

Could I give you
a good night kiss?

Oh.

That's so sweet.

But the arrival of
the honeymoon box.

Ah, this is my worst nightmare.

We'll expose some uncomfortable.

Do you feel any
sexual chemistry with me?

And hard truths?

I didn't even want to sleep
with you.

And....

All I've ever wanted is to get
married and start a family.

But I've had to cancel
one wedding before.

That was the hardest thing
to go through.

A brave bride's,
second chance at love.

Hi.

Wow.

But will her
overprotective cousin...

Why are you here?
I have concerns.

Derail the entire wedding.

I don't believe him.

From the seas of
the South Pacific.

To the white sands of
the Whitsundays.

Our first six couples are embarking
on the next phase of the experiment

the honeymoons,

and some newlyweds are taking the
opportunity to build more intimacy.

Ah!
Oh yes yes oh.

Yes yes, yes.

Come on.
Ah!

There's no aphrodisiac
like an oyster.

Do you mind if I
just keep shucking?

In Vanuatu...

Help me out.

Tori is gaining a newfound
appreciation for her husband, Jack.

A hard one. Yeah.

Whoa!

Sorry about that.

Stop it!

Jesus Christ, Jack is sexy.

Hurry up and wrap yourself up.

Jesus.

Honestly.
I'll take it.

Yeah. I'm looking forward
to the rest of the honeymoon.

Absolutely.

Honeymoon day two.

Honeymoon day two.

Morning.

And welcome to you.

We are broadcasting live
from the Whitsundays.

That's when you do
a little look around.

Oh, yeah, we can do that.

Watching over the Whitsundays.

I'd say I'm pretty damn good.

Basically, I got this 47
out of ten.

Our couples are growing more
comfortable with one another.

Beautiful spot.
All to ourselves.

Yeah, I feel like Tim and I
had a really rocky start,

but we've just gone from completely
one end to the other,

and I'm hopeful.

And in Western Australia,
Natalie and Collins

are finding new ways
to entertain themselves.

No, I'm going to.
I'm going to do the run up.

You know, the run up.
The run up?

Yee!

You gotta do a run up.

Yeah.

Day one of the honeymoon.

It's...

Don't you ever do that.

I haven't, no,
I've never done the run up.

I think today I found
a whole new level of,

uh, the dorky, nerdy, quirky
side of Nat.

And at times I'm like, oh.

Yeah.

Welcome to the honeymoon.

In South Australia,

Kassandra and Tristan
are settling in for brunch.

- Oh, cheers to another beautiful
day on our honeymoon.

Let's be honest.

I do not see this coming.
No, not at all.

Hello.

You're beautiful.

For Tristan, the connection
was instant on their wedding day.

She's so pretty.

I really like her.
I like her a lot.

I'm a hopeless romantic,

so get ready to be treated
like the queen you deserve to be.

He is bold, courageous, funny
and I already adore him.

And the couple have grown closer
during their honeymoon.

The honeymoon life suits us.

The honeymoon life does suit us.

Things are going really great.
Really good.

Definitely husband material.

OK, that's a good start.
That's a good start.

That's a very, very, very, very
much wives material.

Yeah, I'm...

I'm very happy here.

The honeymoon glow is real.

Tristan is fantastic.

Um, I'm in my zone.

Just bliss.
Just bliss.

Everything.

Everything is just bliss.

You literally can't
get much better than this.

I do want to ask one question,
but I'm, like, really nervous

about asking it.

Oh my goodness.
I don't want to ask it.

Oh come on.
I don't want to ask.

You can ask me anything.

No, no, I can ask.
I'll talk about it later.

Let me think about it.
I don't want to ask it.

I mean, obviously we're married
and physical contact is a thing

that kind of needs to happen.

And obviously being the dude
I need to kind of.

And I hate that.

Like, I like I was really hoping
at some point

she was just going to make
the move.

But like, obviously we've got
to progress either way,

move forward.

But I also don't want to put
too much pressure on it.

When you're ready, I'll answer
any question you have for me.

Nah, 'cause I get so nervous,
even if I feel like... (TRAILS OFF)

Ah.

I was maybe wondering after dinner

if I could give you
a good night kiss.

Oh, my God, just freaks me out
asking that.

Oh, why would you ask that?

I don't know, she's like a very,
very stressful.

I was gonna ask you yesterday,
but I wasn't able to do it.

That's so sweet.
And I was just, like,

nah I'll wait for dinner time
because I can ask her

But look, that's the question
I want to ask you.

So it's up to you.

Obviously.
Now I'm...

Now that you ask me.
Now I'm gonna leave.

You've put me
in the vulnerable zone.

Oh.
That's so sweet.

Don't hide.
That's really sweet.

No, no, no, no.
It was very sweet.

It was very sweet of him.

And it took him a lot
to get that off his mind

and chest and, um.
It was very sweet.

I think that'll be nice.

OK.

He's just a gentleman, and I'm
glad to have him as my husband.

In Vanuatu.

The experiment's two dominant alpha
personalities, Tory and Jack.

Happy husband, happy life.

Are beginning to explore
their relationship dynamic

on their honeymoon.

I've never been so aligned
with someone in my life,

and there's a spark
and that's great.

And I'm sure he's the same.

Like, do you ask yourself,
where was I going wrong?

Like.

Well, you've never dated me.

I'm feeling like you're
the the special one.

Maybe.

On their wedding day.

I'm a bit of a control freak.
OK.

Jack was confident he could
take charge in the relationship.

I definitely reckon I'll sort her
out and we'll have a good time.

And Tori's attraction to Jack

proved too strong to resist.

The hair.
Body glistening in the sun.

Move it.
Go!

There's definitely, like,
a sexual energy there.

But unbeknownst to Tory,
Jack's sexual feelings for her

weren't exactly reciprocated.

We're not sexually connected
at all.

We're on the same page.

I mean, we obviously don't know
how the other couples are going,

but I'm feeling
a little bit like...

Superior.

I really do think that we are

a step ahead.

Hello.

But Tory's confidence
in their relationship

is about to be tested.

What is this?

With the arrival of
the honeymoon box.

Damn.

Did you get me a gift?

The honeymoon box
is an important part of

the Married
at First Sight experiment.

I kind of wish it was a gift.

It contains a set of direct
and targeted questions,

with its purpose to speed up
our newlyweds

getting to know each other
on a deeper level.

Good luck.

OK.
Shall I start?

Fire away.

What are your deal breakers
and why?

Someone that doesn't take care
of themselves.

Someone that's not true
to themselves.

Someone that's not driven,

and ultimately someone
that respects me.

Also, I demand respect
in a relationship.

It makes me feel
like a the man I am.

I don't think we'll have
an issue in that area whatsoever.

Mhm.
Alrighty.

Tori.

Are you attracted to me?

Am I your type?

I'm attracted to you.
Absolutely.

No question.

Are you my type?

Yeah, you are pretty much
cookie cutter.

What I asked for.

Values.

Looks.

Personality.

Everything.

Honestly,
I couldn't ask for anything more.

Like you absolutely fit
the mold to a T.

Yeah.

Mhm, yeah.

They've done great.

They've done great.

I absolutely feel that.

Yeah right.
OK.

Mhm.

Shoot me.

Do you feel any sexual chemistry
with me?

You answered that question.
A mac, a mac.

What's that word?
Immaculately.

Immaculately.

It was amazing
the way you worded that.

Um.

I've definitely had, like,
big ass sexual sparks instantly.

Um, I think given the way we met
and the mixed bag

of emotions that were running
through my body, um,

and my head the day I met you,
I wasn't like, going,

God damn,
I want to get this girl in bed.

(GENTLE MUSIC PLAYS)

Um, I think given the way we met

and the mixed bag of emotions

that were running through my body
and my head the day I met you,

I wasn't like going, God damn,
I want to get this girl in bed.

I am a sexually driven guy.

I've got to be connected to my
partner and that takes time for me.

I nearly can pinpoint
how long it takes.

OK.

I've said to the experts,
when I first lay eyes on my bride,

I want to get a feeling
and a connection.

Instantly.

I can tell within 10s
if I want to be physical

with this girl one night or three
months, or put a ring on it.

I'm hoping this experiment
is fast paced as it is,

it'll grow quicker than you know
what the average time is for me?

Sex is a funny topic.

Yeah, so it does happen in life.

Like, I have had, um,

moments where I do have that
sexual spark instantly.

I don't think
we had it straight away.

Yeah, I think it was him trying to
keep his cards close to his chest,

which is fine.

So it's not the first thing
on my mind.

I didn't even want to sleep
with you the first night.

Second night.
It was not on my mind.

I'm a fierce lover
and I'm a very passionate lover.

You know, the stronger connection
I can find with my partner,

aka, you, the more sexually
attracted I will be.

Therefore, that's when you know.

Yeah, we'll be getting it on.

Perfect.

Right.
Well, that concludes that.

She hasn't challenged me yet,
which I thought she would,

especially the day I met her
and listening to her vows.

I thought she would challenge me.

I don't know if she's a bit
more submissive

than she leads out to be,

or she might like me,
might like me a lot.

And she's trying to please me,
which is kind of sweet as well.

I hope it's the latter.

If I'm not sleeping with you
in six weeks time,

something's wrong.
I'll tell you that right now.

With Jack setting a clear
six week deadline for

when sex should transpire
in his marriage.

For Natalie and Collins,
there are no such concerns.

Thanks to a sturdy pillow wall
erected to prevent any potential

romantic misunderstandings.

Oh.

He's going to be
the pillow wall guardian.

OK.

All right, no worries.

I feel safer already.

In Port Stephens,
Lucinda and Timothy

are waking up to the first full day
of their honeymoon.

This is it, aye.
Yes.

This morning.

How are you feeling
about everything?

A little more relaxed, yeah.

Timothy's unease with Lucinda's
spiritual practices

was palpable
on their wedding day.

What I would like to invite you
to do, first of all,

is close your eyes.

This is different.
This is frankincense.

Rose petals.

When they were waving
that chicken wing,

I was waiting for something
to fall out of the sky

and just hit me.

And a thunderstorm...

I can feel rain.

Threw their nuptials
into chaos.

Do we have a wet weather plan?

Now shit gets real.

Everybody run for cover.

That better not be an omen.

But despite a tumultuous start
to their wedding,

the couple weathered the storm
together.

You put me at ease.

And as they begin
their honeymoon,

Lucinda is eager to further
broaden Timothy's horizons.

Oh my God.

With a life drawing session.

Tim.

We're going to draw each other,
are we?

There's no chance of
me getting my gear off

and somebody painting me.

I'm telling you right now.

So, Elise, in you come.

Oh, hello.

Wow.

Hi, Elise.

We get to draw you.

Fabulous.

Holy shit.

OK.

It was very confronting.

I just didn't know where
to look.

Good thing to do to Tim
is actually look at the body

and not your paper
and appreciate the body.

So you look at the lines,
the curves, how it moves.

I just.
It's just...

It's just not real often,
you know,

you just somebody just walks
in and says, draw me.

Yeah I do.

Just doesn't happen
at my place that often.

That often never.

Oh, God.

This is awesome.

But, Lucinda,
it was just natural for her.

And Elise, your gorgeous honey.

It's so beautiful.

She just complements
and, you know,

lots of hand movements.

I'm loving
all these awesome curves

from one voluptuous woman
to another.

So awesome.

She just makes everyone feel
very comfortable.

I was a quivering mess next
to her, but, you know,

the model was very comfortable.

That was so beautiful.
Thank you, honey.

Thank you very much.

Are you alright?

Um, it's not, you know,
obviously.

Um, I'm.

Yeah.

I appreciate your beautiful open
mind, but you gone with that?

I think it's great.

That was just fun.

At the end of the day,
we just really enjoy each other

and have such a laugh.

So that to me
is the best thing ever.

I'd like to draw Tim naked
at some point.

Coming up.

I've had to cancel one wedding
before.

That was the hardest thing
to go through.

A brand new couple.
Enter the experiment.

Hi.

Wow.

Oh.
But a protective cousin.

I just have a gut feeling
he might be here

to promote his business.

Threatens to derail this bride's
second chance at love.

Red flags.
Made me a little bit nervous.

Back in Sydney,
it's time to meet two new singles.

Who are about to enter
the experiment.

I'm Ellie, I'm 32, I'm from
Queensland and I'm a nurse.

All I've ever wanted in life

is just the average
Australian dream.

And I almost had that
with my ex-partner.

We were together for six years,
I was engaged.

About to get married,
just bought a house.

We had spoken about starting
a family.

Yeah, I had my whole life
mapped out

and then it all just crumbled.

He went out one night and didn't
come home until 10am

the next morning.
I tried phoning him.

Hadn't taken my call all night,

and I deep down knew that
something wasn't right.

And then when he came home the
next day, it was just like,

hey, I don't love you anymore.

It was a big shock.

And I was like,
do you want to work on it?

And he said, no,
and that was it.

It was gut wrenching.

Yeah, and really sad.

How close were you
to the wedding day?

Three or four months out?

Wow.

So everything
was pretty much planned.

We'd sent out invites
and I had paid for my dress,

had all my rings.

Yeah, so had to cancel
all of that.

And I had to do that by myself,
too.

And you try and make those calls
to everyone,

and everyone wants to know why.

And you're like.

But very quickly
after we'd broken up, um,

he was with someone else,
and then.

Yeah, she got pregnant.

Yeah.
It was just insane.

Like, I could not believe
that my life just changed

like that overnight.

I've definitely healed
from that past relationship.

I just thought, you know.
Well, start again.

I definitely want someone
that's, like, active,

adventurous
and willing to try new things.

Someone that loves travelling.

And I really like someone

that's got goals
and a plan for their life.

I do actually want children.

My baby sister is having a baby.

She's like four years younger
than me.

It just makes me realise that,
you know,

I do actually want that
for myself in the future.

And to meet someone
that's also looking for that,

that is the goal for me.

And what I hope that
I walk away with at the end

is someone that, you know,

I can share the rest of
my life with

and go on and have our happily
ever after.

So what would this life
look like?

Do you think this ideal person?
The white picket fence.

Maybe.
Is that what you see?

I want to have a family

and just the average
Australian dream

and to be able to travel together

and yeah, try new things
and new experiences.

My name is Ben.

I'm 39 years of age.

I'm from Newcastle,
New South Wales,

and I'm a tour leader.
In Venice, in Florence, Rome.

I've been traveling for such
a long time,

and I really wasn't ready to be
in that long-term relationship.

But I've shifted my priorities
where I put relationships at the top

because you never know what tomorrow
is going to bring.

Recently, I lost my best mate
to brain cancer.

That shook me.

You know, lose your best mate
when he's 36.

He had so much to live for.

Yeah, that was really hard.

I don't get asked about that a lot.

You know,
that was a tough journey.

Yeah.

Um, but gave me a great perspective
to reanalyse what's important.

I had to sort of hit
a big reset button.

OK.

And just look at all the pieces
of my puzzle.

You know what's important?

And part of
that was relationships.

That's at number one.

Yeah.

Ta da!
You ready for love?

Yes.

You know, like I've got good
people around me.

Mhm.
Got a good career.

Everything's great.

There's just that little piece
that's missing.

What makes a woman attractive.

A nice smile.
Yeah.

I'm hoping that she's
intelligent, trustworthy,

sort of a helper type
personality.

I find sort of is a good match,
and that's about it.

You think you want to have kids?

Yes.
Yeah.

You know, 2.3 kids, a house.

It's the Australian dream.

And I want that.

That's at number one.

This is an amazing dress.

It feels absolutely wild
to be wedding dress shopping again.

Beautiful.

Ta da!

Second time's a charm.
I can't believe we're doing this.

I know me either.

We. Is it?

Yeah you are.

I really hope this works.

Hopefully this is it.

But I do feel optimistic
going into this experiment.

And it would just be amazing
to meet my, like, perfect match.

Ellie, I think, is a person who
really deserves a second chance.

She really is ready at this
moment to form that connection,

to form that bond,
to fall in love.

And she's really looking ahead

into motherhood
and taking those steps.

They really are very much
aligned in terms of what they want

to get out of this relationship.

You know, so often
with this experiment,

we have people coming into
the process with really lofty goals

and high expectations,

sometimes unrelenting expectations.

But with Ben and Ellie.

Their expectations
are quite humble.

You know, they really just want
to find the one,

settle down
and create a beautiful home.

And I think that's quite
refreshing.

Ellie and Ben.

I think they stand a really,
really good chance.

Very hopeful about them.

With less than 24 hours
before her big day.

Hey.

Ellie is meeting up with her cousin
Jordan for a final pep talk.

Look, I got us a great table here.

Jordan and I are really close
because our mums

are actually identical twins.

Cheers to getting married.

Oh my goodness.

Jordan has a great BS radar.

He always says that how it is,
and he's definitely very vocal.

So I know that he is going to
just say it straight to me,

which is sometimes
what I need to hear.

This is crazy.

Absolutely.

It's crazy, Ellie.

But do you wonder why I would?

I would really hope
that you were matched with

somebody who would really care
about you.

Want to grow a family with you
who want to be there and support you

for a long time.
Yeah.

You know I want to have children
one day.

Like tick, tick.

Yeah.

You know, my little sister's
beating me to it.

Like.
Yeah true.

She is, isn't she?
Yeah, this could be it.

And then there could be
no more dating

and it could be
the best thing ever.

Ellie definitely sees
the best in people.

She always looks
to the positive side,

and I think it's good for
her to have someone like me

to bring her back down a little bit.

I get pretty excited and I kind
of just like, forget and,

you know, try and see the best
in someone.

But yeah, sometimes I wear
my rose coloured glasses.

I'll be there.

I'll be there.

Wine in hand.

Excuse me.

I'm definitely
a protective cousin.

We're family.
I care about you.

I'm protective of her
because she's had a history of

bad relationships in the past,

and I don't want to see
that again.

You can be pretty vocal.

Yeah, yeah.

After couple of drinks,

you certainly don't hold
anything back.

If I said anything to anybody,

it would be because I want
the best for you.

All right.
Yeah.

I can always see somebody for
directly who they are.

Yeah.

And I think it's going to be
good having me there.

I can always spot any kind of
bullshit from a mile away.

Today I finally get to walk down
the aisle.

And the best outcome would be
meeting my one true love

and starting a family.

That's all I've ever wanted
in life.

And I'm really optimistic
about this experiment.

I live around the world,
travelled a lot.

But I want love and I want
to settle down and start a family.

So to be here now makes sense.

I don't have a crystal ball,
but who knows?

I could live happily ever after.

Hi.

Oh, my gosh, look at you.

Oh my God.
You make me cry.

Hi.

I can't believe this is happening.

Just don't wreck the makeup.

I know we've made it.

I know.
A little bit.

Um, you know, different not knowing
who I'm gonna marry,

but it's something.

A little bit delayed, but.

Hey, here we are.

Today's going to be so amazing.

This is gonna.

This is the beginning of
your happily ever

after that you've always
deserved.

She deserves this happy,
happy day and happy ending.

And I just hope it's perfect
for her.

All right, well, I'm going
to see you at your wedding.

Walking down the aisle.
Amazing.

I'll meet you there.

(GENTLE MUSIC PLAYS)

Oh, wow.

Oh my gosh, this is amazing.

What a place to have a wedding.

It's gorgeous.

That's lovely.

It's all a bit surreal.

Beautiful day.

Oh, I am excited.

Yeah, I've lived a pretty
unconventional, wild lifestyle.

But now I want something more.

And I think I'm ready for it.

To be here in the experiment.

It's an outstanding opportunity
in every shape and form.

So I'm going to give it
everything.

Bring it on.

Look who's coming.

Ahh, they're coming?

Hi.
How are you?

Hi.
Howdy.

Hi.

Hi.

Hello.

How are you feeling?

Excited.

You're gonna love her.

I hope so.
I bet she's excited.

I can just imagine her.

Oh, yep.

It's happening.

I've been waiting for
this moment for a very long time.

It's, um, very surreal
to be in a big white dress.

I've had to cancel one wedding
before.

That was the hardest thing
to go through.

So, so much is riding on this
for me.

All I've ever wanted in life

is to get married
and start a family.

And I really hope
that I meet someone amazing

that just wants the same things
that I do.

I hope that I walk down
that aisle.

He turns around with a big smile
on his face

and it's like we instantly click.

I'm hoping it is a forever type
of deal,

because the absolute goal
for me at the end of this

is to finally have
my happily ever after.

Oh my god.

She's so beautiful.

So beautiful.

Hi.

Wow.

Hello, everybody.

Hi.

Hi.

Oh my God.

I can't believe I'm doing this.

Hi, I'm Ellie.

Hey, Ellie.
Ben.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

As soon as I locked eyes
with him, I was like, perfect.

Oh, I'm nervous.
That I was so pleased.

Honestly, hands down,
the experts, like, did a great job.

You look like amazing.
Thank you.

That's...I was hoping for that.
Oh my God.

Holy shit.
She's beautiful.

We, like, hold hands or.

Yeah,
whatever you're comfortable with.

Let's just do it.
I need to hold on to something.

Do your children?
No.

OK.
Do you?

No. That's good.
Ticking a few boxes already?

Yeah.

What do you do?

I'm a nurse.
What do you do?

Well, I'm a tour guide.
OK.

Do you enjoy helping people?
Yeah.

We're off to a good start.
This is gonna work.

It's gonna work.
I love traveling, too.

Really? Wow.
Yeah, I do.

Yeah.
My... my type of personality.

Family and friends.

We are gathered here today

to witness the union of
Ellie and Ben.

Today they will pledge
their commitment to each other

in marriage.

Ellie and Ben will now share
their personal vows,

which they have written for
one another.

OK.
Bit of the old shake.

Ooh!

Hey, Ben.

I am so excited to be standing
here and crazily enough,

marrying you today.

I know this is a little
unconventional

and a pretty wild thing to do,

but I'm hoping the experts
have this right.

And that the decision to marry
a complete stranger

pays off as one of the best
decisions of my life.

I'm an eternal optimist,
and I value honesty

and respect and believe that every
relationship must have these

to have a solid foundation for
something to grow.

I've had my fair share of
heartbreaks and letdowns

in the past,

which is what brought me here
today.

I'm hoping this turns out
a little differently, though,

which is why I'm willing to jump
in the deep end with you

and commit myself
to this relationship.

So let's get married.

That was so good.

Like those words like that was
exactly what I was thinking.

Yeah.
My my type of personality.

Yeah.
Yeah.

Ben. Your vows.

Sure.

Ellie, I first want to thank you
for taking a huge risk

as we stand here together
as complete strangers,

placing our faith
into the experts.

Being a world traveller
and a tour guide for many years/

I've lived a life on the road
with itchy feet.

And as a result,
romance has taken a back seat.

But I've learned that love
is life's greatest experience.

And that's why I'm here
standing in front of you,

and I want to assure you that
I am here for genuine reasons.

The experiment and you
are now my priority.

I hope that no matter what
the outcome,

if we put our best foot forward
and take care for one another,

we can never lose.

I love that.
That's really sweet.

Thank you.
Yeah.

I loved his vows.

He just seemed so genuine.

And he's into traveling.

I love traveling, and he doesn't
have children just yet.

I was like, perfect.

Tick tick tick.
All the boxes.

It looks good hey.

Wow.
Yeah.

Oh, my God.

I feel like this could be it.

Perfect.

Hey.
Hey.

It is now my pleasure
to pronounce you husband and wife.

Oh my God.

I can't believe I got married.

Ladies and gentlemen.
Ben and Ellie.

Finally there is a ring
on that finger.

Feels a little strange.

Um, but yeah, I love it.

Yeah, yeah, it's going to take
a while to get used to saying

the word husband.

VOICEOVER: As the sun sets
on their wedding ceremony,

Ellie and Ben are connecting over
their shared love of travel.

Northern Territory, Melbourne,
Wagga Wagga.

Yeah.

I love that Ben is a tour guide.

Wow. Yeah. How cool.
Well travelled.

Yeah.
Yeah.

I think we're getting along
really well.

And from what I can gather,
you know,

through our little chats
together, he seems really great.

I'm so happy.

Yeah.
And beautiful.

Yeah.
Yeah.

She seems really happy.

Just perfect.

I've had a great first impression.

I would not be laughing
and smiling otherwise.

Ben seems like a nice guy,
but I'm really nervous for Ellie

because she always looks
to the positives in people,

which has had a history of
some terrible relationships.

And I don't want to see her
get hurt again.

So I'm here to interrogate him.

Thanks, man.

I hope that he has
the right intentions

to be a good, loving husband.

We'll see.

Oh, man.

What do you do for work, Ben?

So it's sort of like two things.

So I do some tour guiding
and doing like podcasts.

This is like a hobby.

Oh, you have a...
Cool, you have a podcast.

It's just all travel stuff.

How many subscribers
do you have?

Not, Not much, not much.

OK.

Hey, can I just ask you, though,
Ben.

Then why are you here?

Like.

Are you looking for
a relationship?

Like a good long-term relationship?

Yeah, they're trying to suss
you out and see if you're here

just to start an OnlyFans or...
Just kidding.

No one will pay to see this.

Yeah.

Um, I've chosen a life of
travel for such a long time.

It's.
Yeah.

I shot myself in the foot.
You know what I mean?

This man is getting groomed
over here, isn't he, Jess?

It's the way they get to know you
Benny.

I know.

It's the way they get to know you.

Oh.

Yes.

I can always see
the red flags in people.

And I'm getting bad juju vibes.

Hey, he's a bit slippery over
there.

I just have it in my mind
that Ben might be here for

the wrong reasons.

So, yeah.

He runs the podcast,
runs a business, a tour guide.

That tells me that he could
potentially be looking for fame.

VOICEOVER: Still to come.

I'm just going to be completely
frank with you.

Our newest groom gets a grilling.

I have concerns that you might
be here to promote your podcast

and not giving your all
to this relationship.

Yeah.

Connections grow
as the honeymoons continue.

Eden.
Will you marry me?

We just got along so well.

It feels
like I've known him forever.

Before the honeymoon box.

Got to be kidding me.

Exposes some difficult truths.

This is my worst nightmare.

Do you feel any sexual chemistry
with me?

Be honest.

Um.
It's not there.

(SUBTLE MUSIC PLAYING)

With their wedding reception
in full swing,

the newlywed nurse Ellie
and travel guide Ben

are relishing
in their successful pairing.

I thought, OK, here and here
and this has gone above.

Like, am I punching above
my weight here?

Oh my God,
how has this happened?

Whoa.

All the tours that I went on,

the, um, tour guides
were absolute whores.

Like they just went around
sleeping at all...

Like the tour guide?

Yeah.
Yes. No.

Thanks, Gracie.

VOICEOVER: Despite Ellie being happy
with her new husband.

I know.

The protective cousin Jordan
has concerns about Ben following

the admission that he has a podcast.

So far,
I think Ellie's pretty smitten,

but I just have a few, I guess,
doubts about Ben.

I just have a gut feeling
that he is here to promote himself.

(OVERLAPPING SPEECH)
Can we talk outside?

Yeah.
Is that OK?. Cool.

Let's head out.

I'm definitely protective of
Ellie.

She's my closest family
that I have,

and I only want the best for her.

So I'm going to have
a one on one conversation with him.

I want to know
exactly why he's here.

So how long have you been wanting
to do Married at First Sight?

Oh.
I don't know.

I got my interest
a few years ago.

A few years ago. OK.

So you've tried doing this a few
times, have you?

Yeah.
OK.

I nearly made it in 2021.

Mhm.

Like met all the hosts
and then say sorry

Um.

Have you tried to do
anything else like this before?

Ugh,
No you haven't?

Um.

People's contacted me.

OK, righto.

I'm just going to be completely
frank with you.

I have concerns
that you might be here

to promote your touring business,

promote your podcast.

And I just feel like hearing
those sorts of things

from you tonight.

I just feel like
that's potentially a possibility

for you and not giving your all
to this relationship.

No, I can see it makes sense.

Why you'd reach those conclusions.

And if that does happen out of it.

That's one sort of silver lining.

You know.

But if love happens out of it,
great.

OK.

So you're saying you're kind of
here for this and that?

Um, here for both reasons.

You want to promote yourself
and...

Umm...like.

So relationship one thing, but
I love taking exciting adventures

and risks, so I just did it
with no intention.

I would say why not?

But if you've been trying to do
it for a while.

That's my that's my
thought pattern here.

But it makes sense to me.
I like doing exciting things.

Yeah.

Yeah, I think so.

Yeah.

I'm not sure how to elaborate.

OK.
Righto.

I don't know.
You'll have to ask him that.

I'm not gonna lie,
my concerns are still there.

Yeah.

But I guess time will show that.

I feel like, yeah, I
really hope you look after her

and you do the right thing by her.

If I can say anything
based me on my actions.

OK.
Please base me on.

Well, I look forward
to seeing that.

Ben tried to reassure me
that he was here for love.

I don't believe him.

I want the best for Ellie,

and I think that potentially
at this stage,

I'm not convinced that he's
going to be the best for her.

Ah, yeah.
Yeah.

Are you guys going for a tour?

Ellie needs to be cautious of
who he is

and exactly what his intentions are.

(OMINOUS MUSIC)

Ben tried to reassure me
that he was here for love.

I don't believe him.

I want the best for Ellie,

and I think that potentially
at this stage,

I'm not convinced that
he's going to be the best for her.

Yeah.

And just hop out of here.

Are you guys going for a tour?

Ellie needs to be cautious of
who he is

and exactly what his intentions are.

You never know.
You know what I mean?

So I just figured, why not?

You know, why not give it a go.

What's your thought?

You know, nice.
Nice guy.

Yeah.

Oh.

I'm going to be honest with you.

When I spoke to him,
I felt like everything I asked him,

it was just like a vague.

He didn't really answer
the fact that.

Why is he here?
Do you know what I mean?

Just hearing that conversation
about, you know,

the podcast and the tour business.

I just have a gut feeling

like he might be here
to promote his business.

He wants to be a podcast owner.

He wants to be promoting himself
by getting married to you.

You're going to see that side of
him and it's like,

OK, like red flags.

You know, hearing
from my cousin that

Ben just is here
to promote himself.

Um, kind of was a bit of,
like, a shock.

And also it made me think
he might not be genuine.

Yeah.
Made me a little bit nervous.

So I'd imagine family
is an important thing.

Yes, definitely.

Yeah.
Oh.

All right, everybody,

we have a speech
from our lovely groom, Ben.

Thank you.

Oh, boy.

Um, well, where to begin?

Um, yeah.

So I was actually having
conversations about this before,

and, you know,
I know what you're thinking.

You know.
What does Ben do?

Is he here for the right reasons?

Why is he still single?

Is he a nice guy?

So hopefully I can explain.

Uh, to answer some of
these questions.

I've never been married.

I've been traveling since
I've been 22.

I'm 39 now.

Uh, like the Ben that you see
right now before you

is ready to plant some roots.

So I've been asked many times,

why do you want the experiment.
So many times.

Why not.

Why not?
Why do you wanna do a podcast?

Why not?
I love excitement.

I love adventure,

and doing this experiment to me
makes perfect sense.

So in the biggest thank you
is to my wife

for taking that biggest leap of
faith and saying, why not to.

You get it.
So why not?

ALL: Why not?

Cheers.
Cheers.

Cheers.

And why not?

Why not?

I don't think that anything
that Ben said

has reassured me about
what I think about him.

I think he said something
about building a life,

but I was just like, you're 38,
mate.

Like you've had 38 years
to do this.

What are you doing here?

Are you doing here?

You're trying to promote
your podcast.

I think that's enough of me
being a (BLEEP).

Congratulations
to the bride and the groom.

Ellie and Ben.

And I'm looking forward
to getting to know you more, Ben.

And I'm looking forward to seeing
some good green flags in the future.

Just hearing from my cousin Jordan.

Looking forward to
the first dance.

I don't want to call it
a major red flag now.

I think it's like
a little amber flag.

Hey.

ALL: Whoo!

I just need to find out
more about him.

We are going to invite the bride
and the groom up

to cut the cake.

Yes.

Hey, it looks amazing.

Seems the experts
have actually delivered.

There we go.

She's stunningly beautiful.

She's intelligent.
She's kind.

Yay!

But Jordan suspected I might
not be here for genuine reasons.

Here we go.

I think it's a bit presumptuous
to to think that

he's known me for a day.

What do we do now?
I don't know.

Being interrogated.

You know, that's a mood killer.

It's just is.

VOICEOVER: In the New South Wales
Southern Highlands.

Our most recent newlyweds,
Ellie and Ben,

are arriving to begin
their honeymoon.

Oh my God.
it's already full.

Oh my God, this is amazing.

In the Whitsundays.

We exchanged rings again.

Yep.

Jayden is winding back the clock
on the experiment

with an interesting proposition
for new wife Eden.

Eden, will you marry me?

I've got to ask you first.
Yes.

Yes.

What do you think you're going
to say, no?

Of course.
I mean, maybe.

Thank you.

Yeah.
Just so good.

We just get along so well.

So it feels like
I've known him forever.

Thank you.

But, yeah, we haven't really
delved into, like,

past relationships
and things like that.

Um, you know,
I do want to open up to Jaden,

but takes me a while to get to
that point with someone new

because I definitely don't trust
people easily.

My last relationship,

we did break up
because he cheated on me.

It came out in the end that
he had cheated on me

with my lifelong best friend.

Life long friend.

That's like
an insanely deep betrayal.

I am so hesitant
to date someone else

and to be in that same position
again.

Watch your step.
You watch yours.

You trip over every time
we walk anyway.

I'm just falling for you.

I feel like the vibe between
the two of us is pretty unique

and rare that that happened
so quickly.

How nice is this?
Lovely.

So I'm hoping
that he can get me to trust him.

Um, but I do think I need to tell
him about my past situation.

So, for me going into any
new relationship,

whether it's a friendship
or it's a relationship.

I'm so sceptical
because my ex partner cheated

on me with my lifelong best friend.

Ah, shit.

It definitely has affected
how I approach new people.

Yeah.
That probably.

That's why I'm a little bit of
a slow burner, I'd say,

because I'm not very trusting
initially.

Do you think I haven't?

I've only known you for
a couple of days.

Do you think you there might be
some trust issues

or you might read into other things
down the line with me?

I think I would hope that you prove
yourself to be a loyal person.

Like reassurance.

Yeah.

I think actions
speak louder than words.

So it's just.

Yeah, the way that you show it,
I guess.

But, um...

You've got to protect
your feelings, I get that.

Yeah, that's what it is.

It's just like protecting
myself, I guess, a little bit.

Because you're everything that
I want, and you're...

Really?
Yeah.

Eden has definitely
been through a lot of heartbreak.

It might not be the most
pleasant thing to talk about,

but I'm happy she opened up
a bit more.

And you know,
I want her to know that

I'm definitely someone
that she can trust.

Yeah.
I love that. That's good.

It's almost like too good
to be true.

How well we've gotten along.

And I feel like we've hit it off
far quicker than

I've probably ever hit it off
with anyone.

I think that it was something
that we needed to talk out,

but Jayden made me feel comfortable
talking about my past situation.

Very good signs.

I'm hoping over time I'll get
that reassurance from him.

Cheers!
Cheers to dinner.

Fish and chips.
Look at that.

Took the words right out my mouth.

Oh my God,
we always say the same things.

Gosh, we've been spoiled
on this honeymoon.

This has been pretty amazing,
there's no question.

And it's so good to do it
with you.

After connecting over their
shared sense of humor

during a life drawing session.

That was a lot of fun.

Newlyweds Lucinda and Timothy

are finishing up
an intimate lunch.

That was such a treat.

Smashed it.
Well done.

And while their honeymoon is off
to a light-hearted start,

the couple will now need
to foster openness

and honesty with the arrival of
the honeymoon box.

This has arrived from the experts.

Here guys.

Ah, thank you!

You've got to be kidding me.

Ah.
Let's have a look.

This is exciting.

I don't enjoy talking about
feelings and emotions.

I find it incredibly tough.

So this is my worst nightmare.

Yeah.

Like every red blooded man
over 45,

we're taught to put our emotions
and squash them down.

I'm the opposite.
Right.

Let's do this.
OK.

Is that OK?
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Just checking in.
I'm the Tin man.

No heart.

We're gonna get that heart and
pop it back in where it belongs.

How sexually adventurous
are you?

I'm very immersed in sort of
sexual exploration, I suppose.

I mean, I, I host tantric sexual
festivals, you know,

I've been I've been emceeing tantric
workshops for years and years.

I would be adventurous,
according to most.

Right.
Yeah.

And you,
how sexually adventurous are you?

Um.

Yeah, I'm not that bad.

Are you a bit of a jackhammer?

Just, dut, dut, dut, dut, dut,
dut, dut.

I get the job done.
I mean, explain your...

I'm not that.

I just.
I dunno how to answer this.

Like, you know,
if you get ice cream,

what sort of ice cream do you eat?

Probably not vanilla.

More peppermint choc chip.

See.

Or something a bit boutique.

I don't know.

I eat vanilla every time.
OK.

I ordered
a vanilla milkshake today.

Yeah.

Let's pick the next one.

Do you feel
any sexual chemistry with me?

Yes.

A couple of times I've, like,

had some activation here with
a lovely kiss that we've had.

Like, I can feel it.

I can feel that I would,
you know,

when the time's right
and you feel comfortable.

I'd love to be more intimate
with you.

Yeah, I feel an energy there.

OK.

And I, you know,
you scrumptious.

You're yummy.

I want to be close.

Right.

Do you feel any sexual chemistry
with me?

Be honest.

Um.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

Do you feel any sexual chemistry
with me?

Be honest.

Um.

It's a...

Go on, say it.

Get it out.

It's got a grove for me.

It's... it's not a...
it's not an instantaneous thing.

So you don't have
any sexual attraction.

It's not that I don't or it's.

It's just.

It's not there.

Yet.

OK.

He was very direct and honest
and I respect that.

Although my heart did go in real
like, I was a little bit deflated.

I genuinely feel like shit
because I know what it's like.

Rejection to the face just sucks.

And I just felt that I,
I hurt somebody.

It's bullshit.

So no sexual chemistry
with me yet?

I do understand your answer.
OK.

Yeah, I get it.

It's still early days,
and I'm a patient woman.

You know, I mean, I'm absolutely
happy for to give it time.

You know, there's no question.

You've got a good heart
and a good soul.

If there's any shortcomings,
it's mine.

Lucinda is an amazing person,

and I don't take it lightly that
it's an incredible opportunity

to be in this experiment with her.

But I feel shit for her
that she got paired up with me.

Yeah.

I don't.

I don't think I'm good enough.

I think she can do better.

Let's pick the next one.

Thanks for sharing.

I feel like Tim's
a little bit of a rubber band.

It's like there's a bit of
a crack and then a pull back

and a crack and a pull back,

and, you know,
it's going to require a bit of

patience for me.
But I'm here.

I'm a patient woman,
and I do think he's worth it.

So I'll just keep gently prising
through the shell.

Why did you apply for
this experiment?

I am ready for a husband
and sharing my magnificent life.

So yeah, I feel that's.
I feel that's my deep truth.

And for you.

Why did I apply?

There was a specific moment in time.

Six weeks ago, dad died and I was in
that room or at the airport,

especially at the airport
when I was just sitting there.

And I wanted to be able to
phone somebody and.

I didn't and couldn't
and I just went, I am alone.

That's it?
No.

(SAD MUSIC PLAYS)

Like, right now I want to cry,
you know, for you.

Like, I just feel, you know,
that makes me.

I see your little tender bits
and your vulnerable bits,

and they are welcome here.

And yeah, I see you.

I've got lots of compassion
for Tim.

There's been lots of loss
and trauma that he buries.

That's a lot for anybody
to hold in actually.

What?
I don't want your loss?

What's that?

Your loss.

What about it?
It's full on.

That's not.

It's only if you think about it.

It's like feelings.

I feel like
he is a hard egg to crack.

You right?
Yeah.

Yes, at this point,
he's not sexually attracted to me.

But, you know,
I'm not giving up.

I just need to keep showing up

and, and loving him for where he is.

I hold the lantern of hope.

Next time.

Shit.

Holy shit.
Where am I meant to hold on to?

I'm ready for a drink.

What time is it?

The experiments...

He can't be a vegan.

That's not the life of me.

I gotta get all the vegans
hating me now.

Most unforgettable bride.

In the most chaotic wedding...

Of the year.

Oh, this is nice.

Where everything
that could go wrong does.

Should we get out and push?

Plus.

Richard proves
that age is no barrier.

A woman who grabs life by
the balls like I do.

That's what I want.

When it comes to true love.

She's absolutely beautiful.

This is a pretty crazy first date.

In the most heart warming ceremony

of the year.
