Channel 4 needs Edinburgh singletons willing to get 'Married at First Sight'

It is one of the most extreme reality TV shows out there and now Married at First Sight is looking to recruit some Edinburgh locals for its next series.

As many shows do, Married at First Sight originally proved a big hit overseas but has regularly attracted millions of viewers to its UK episodes on Channel 4, where it has aired since 2015.

In the show six singles marry complete strangers. Using 'scientific matchmaking methods', couples are matched by specialists, who have their say on who should be paired with who.

So yes, you'll need to be happy with meeting your brand new spouse just minutes before you say 'I do'.

Camera crews will then document your relationship – including your wedding day, honeymoon and the first few weeks of married life.

To receive one WhatsApp message a day with Edinburgh Live's headlines, as well as breaking news alerts, text NEWS to 07899067815. Then add the number to your contacts as 'Edinburgh Live'

However, based on the success rate of the marriages on the series so far, we wouldn't be feeling too optimistic about meeting the love of your life!

To apply, email with your name, age (you need to be over 18), and contact number to  marriedatfirstsight@cplproductions.co.uk
