Married at first sight Australia on E4

[Honeyroar]

Anyone watching? The Sydney couple are never going to last. She’s so annoying, surely just on it to get on tv??

Have their ever been a couple from these shows that have stayed married?

He takes a whiskey drink. He takes a vodka drink.

He takes a lager drink. He takes a cider drink.

He sings a song that reminds him of the good times . . .

Imagine working with someone and then they go on a show like this and prove themselves to be a total and dick. Would you say:
A) "I saw you on that show" and that's it.
B) tell them how they came across
C) say nothing at all

On an aside, if you want something more life affirming and full of TRUE LOVE I would recommend 'Say I Do' on Netflix.

Kurri I watched one episode of the Netflix show and cried all the way through. It's so emotional. I need to ration it. Unlike the Indian Matchmaker which is fascinating and entertaining in equal measure

Oh that looks really good!

@KurriKawari, now I will have to look!!!

Kurri and Anne - tank you both for your suggestions.

I've never watched this kind of programme, and am quite shocked (o an exaggeration!) at how thoroughly I have been drawn into the madness!

It's just so compelling!

DH can't understand why I watch shows like this but it's just so fascinating to see other people's relationships. I also love getting glimpses into how people live in other countries because dramas and films don't give you a clue what real houses and lives are like.

Just finishing 1st episode! It’s fab! Thank you!

StrawberryPancakes - err yes, that’s why I didn’t say where they are now.

One of my guilty pleasures used to be “Don’t Tell the Bride” until the production team started egging the guys on to arrange ever more ludicrous, idiotic set ups. It lost its appeal when the object of the exercise became upsetting the poor sap of a bride as much as possible.

Here he comes. "I can't remember that". It's the "I don't sweat" kind of excuse. Must be an Andrew thing.

"I don't know what I said. Had a lot to drink." He wasn't ratted when he was being spiteful about Cheryl.

"Boys are boys. We joke around"

Except you are a MAN, Abandrew - and you bitched! And it wasn't funny!

How foul was lovely Andrew's Mum? Didn't see that coming. He's such a gentle soul.

Probably why lively Andrew is so reticent.

I mean lovely.

Wow. Abandrew is the absolute worst.
Doll face freakoid Anthony is a close second.

Eugh...someone just wheel in a telly and play the room the whole nights events. Actually having to stop myself throwing something at the telly!

Andrew knows this whole thing was being filmed right? How long does he think he can keep denying everything...

....and Anthony!!! Someone needs to put that horrible creature back in his place.

Jeez I'm cross!!

The questions asking game was telling. Abandrew was so passive-aggressive to Cheryl. He is furious she doesn’t fancy him. He feels so entitled that he believes she deserves whatever he says about her. He feels no guilt. Awful, awful man.

That was such a disturbing episode. I felt for Cheryl and Sean. Why didn’t big Andrew and some of the others back him up? Could it even be that they’ve filmed it in a way that it looked much worse than it was? Surely you’d back Sean up if you agreed with him and you could see Sean getting “attacked”? I actually thought Jesse was going to say something, but it was half hearted and excusing Abandrew. The twins were desperate to find a way to smooth it under the carpet, but even they said he should apologise (and they’re not known for empathy!).

If I have to watch another episode of Abandrew and Cheryl going “I don’t know how we are going to move forward from this..” I’ll scream!! Just leave. It’s too uncomfortable to watch much more.

And Nadia, I’m coming to the conclusion, is just thick as fuck. Not pretending because she’s scared of Anthony, but actually a total and utter airhead.

Did anyone notice Cheryl's sunburn? I was surprised an Australian woman wouldn't be wearing factor 100 suncream😊

I hate all this ‘oh it was boys night’ crap. You spoke horribly about someone that you are meant to care about. And even if you don’t care about them, you are an adult and you speak nicely about people. Especially if you know that you’re being filmed! It is becoming the Andrew and Cheryl show which is tiresome.

My husband noticed the sunburn and also said it’s rare to see an Australian with sunburn!

It almost doesn’t matter what he said at the boys night, because he completely disrespected Cheryl (and Sean) at the dinner party and showcased his rude, horrible behaviour. Every single person there saw it for themselves, surely!

Abandrew and Anthony acted like the smug, bullying misogynists they are - so no surprises there. I was impressed with Sean and Simon, and at least Jesse admitted Abandrew had been bitching.
But I was disappointed with ArmyAndrew and Nadia. Maybe Nadia is suited to Anthony after all.
I really wish they'd show them all the clips from the boys' night but I doubt they will.

He is furious she doesn't fancy him

Absolutely.
