The return of the experiment to see whether science can help people fall in love, with experts Mel Schilling, Paul C Brunson and Charlene Douglas ready to help 16 hopeful singles find their perfect match. Before these strangers walk down the aisle, they get to celebrate their final night of freedom together at the ultimate stag and hen parties - where a surprise is in store.

Another four strangers take the ultimate gamble on love and tie the knot with a total stranger. While one bride gets more than she bargained for, an overprotective friend threatens to spoil the big day for a groom and his new husband.

The next phase of the experiment begins, as the first four couples embark on luxury honeymoons in the sun.

One groom's surprise announcement might leave him stranded by a runaway bride, and a twice-married single mum hopes to find love that will last.

Four more singles agree to marry a perfect stranger, but while one bride-to-be hopes to meet the woman of her dreams, another's high expectations could be a recipe for disaster.

The next group of newlyweds fly off to tropical climes, but while fun in the sun is on the cards for some, others find their first break away together far from blissful.

A brand-new chapter of the experiment begins for all of the couples, as they gather together for their first dinner party under the watchful eye of experts Mel, Paul and Charlene.

The couples have reached the first Commitment Ceremony, where they meet to discuss their marriages with the experts and also make a critical decision.

It's the Couple's Retreat and as old feuds are reignited, a connection forms between a bride and groom... who aren't married to each other!

The drama of the Couple's Retreat continues, as marriages hit the rocks and one bride's worst fears are realised as a bombshell is dropped at the dinner party.

It's the penultimate Commitment Ceremony and the experts assess the fallout from the Couple's Retreat. But a huge curveball arises, leaving the experts stumped.

It's the all-important homestays and one half of the couples get a glimpse of their future in the outside world, with some serious grillings from the in-laws.
