Married at First Sight UK - Season 7

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.

The couples go on retreat and it is a chance for everyone to escape the routine of life in the apartments and embark on a weekend in the countryside together.

Two marriages appear to be on the rocks and one bride's worst fears are realised as a bombshell is dropped at the dinner party, which threatens to tear the group apart.

It is the penultimate Commitment Ceremony and an opportunity for the experts to assess the fallout from the Couples Retreat.

It is the all-important homestays and a chance for half of the couples to take their loved ones back home, and get a glimpse of the future of their marriages in the outside world.

Celebrations at the dinner party are cut short as the anonymous letters assignment brings to light some uncomfortable observations for the couples.

It's time for Thomas' and the bride's homestays, a part of the experiment that allows friends and family to meet up with the couples for the first time since their wedding day.

It's the turn of Whitney, Kasia and April to take their partners home to meet their loved ones, but Kwame's in for a shock when he comes face-to-face with Kasia's loyal sisters.

It is the last Commitment Ceremony of the experiment and the final opportunity for the couples to take feedback from the experts.
