Applications Are Open For Married At First Sight Season Six

Reality dating show Married at First Sight is looking for new contestants.

Seeing as 2020 has made pretty much put conventional dating on hold for the foreseeable, you might as well get involved.

The show is pretty self-explanatory - relationship experts sift through applications from individuals and try to match them as compatible pairs. However, the first time the new couples actually see each other is on their wedding day.

Channel 4

Producers for the Channel 4 show are currently casting for the sixth series of the UK version, and they're specifically looking for men to apply.

Three out of four of the couples who featured are actually still together, so it could mean you find the love of your life.

Alternatively, if it's a total train wreck, it makes absolutely great viewing for us, so either way, someone's a winner.

At the VERY worst, you have a stag do, an all-expenses-paid wedding and a luxury honeymoon - so even if there is the possibility you'll hate your new significant other, maybe it's worth it for the savings.

One excellent piece of TV gold came out of the Australian version of Married at First Sight earlier this year.

The bride decided her match wasn't for her - only to seemingly change her mind after finding out he was a millionaire.

In the episode, Stacey Hampton was matched with a friendly chap called Michael Goonan.

The only thing is, Stacey didn't seem particularly bowled over by the bloke she'd been set up with, and appeared to spend a large portion of the day ignoring him.

The 26-year-old law graduate said: "He's not ugly. I don't think he's ugly. But he's not what I normally go for."

She hadn't looked too happy when she met Michael at the altar for the first time, sighing and saying: "At least it's a nice day..."

After giving him the cold shoulder for most of the day, a disappointed looking Stacey quickly changed her tune when a guest at the wedding Googled him to find out he was actually a wealthy business owner.

"That shows me that they've got a lot of drive, if they're in business," she said. "Maybe I judged him too quickly!"

That's my girl.

The fact he was minted still wasn't enough to keep them together, with the pair splitting amid an alleged cheating scandal in October.
