Yes I feel the same. The British version always seemed more serious to me because they were actually legally married whereas the aussie one isn’t a legal marriage. Perhaps I’m putting too much sentiment onto the sanctity of marriage though compared to these modern couples?
Although I never understood how they could get legally married without even knowing each other’s names...when I got married we had to have separate interviews with the registrar to confirm each other’s names, occupations, DOB’s etc to make sure it wasn’t a ‘greencard’/visa marriage or trafficking for example. Does anyone know how MAFS gets around this?

Was one of you a foreign citizen? I guess if both parties have British Passports and are marrying in the UK there's no question of immigration issues coming up so they don't have to worry about it. I've never heard of Registrars pre-interviewing people before so I don't think it's a universal practice.

They definitely used to have to go for interviews with the registrars before they got married in the previous series

I've got my money on Megan. I didn't buy the whole I've never had a relationship crap. I reckon she's a massive shagger who opens her legs more than a tube station ticket barrier.

Also spotted a trailer waiting for the train which had Bob running off and sobbing so reckon she'll definitely break his heart by banging one of the others.

I got married in 2016, we are both British and we had to have separate interviews at the registry office. We did the typical British thing beforehand of worrying so much about it and rehearsed it over and over even though we knew every damn thing about each other 😄
 
If this is anything like the Aussie version, then it's very, VERY producer-led and contrived.

The 'over-protective' brother role has gone to an odd choice. What's he going to do with man-child Big Bob? Slap him round the chops with a wet tissue? My gaydar was doing somersaults when Bro appeared.

As for the children and living abroad crap - nah, there's no way these questions wouldn't have been asked at the very start of the process, so either the 'match-makers' are deliberately pairing them up to cause friction and good telly, or the participants are lying.

Nikita - I can't believe she's not acting up. No-one can be naturally so vile can they?
Morag - what an absolute witch to her poor 'husband'.
James Bond - what a neanderthal hole.

And please, if I hear about one more dead dad, mum, granddad or dog my boot's going through the telly. This ain't the X Factor.

Despite all the above, I'll still watch it all, along with my husband! (Lucky me). :ROFLMAO:

I got married at a hotel and me and my husband had to have separate interviews before hand. I also had to see the Registrar right before the wedding ceremony. We are both U.K. citizens but we have both been married before so don’t know if that had anything to do with it?

It's a legal requirement that when you get married in the UK you have to give notice at the local registry office at least 29 days before the wedding, which means a short interview with the registrar, that you have to do separately. We are both British citizens from birth, had been living together at the same address for five years and were marrying in our home town - everyone you know who has got married in this country did an interview with the registrar, you can't get married otherwise.

I need to catch up with last nights episode but so far I am enjoying the total reality TV car crash that is turning out to be.

I’m a British citizen and had the notice interview and the pre-interview on the day. It’s definitely standard practice.

Years ago you didn't even have to give that long you could get a quick licence. Think it was a week's notice (this was late 90s)

I think you could be on to something. He says he likes a girl who’s a size 10+ and none of the other girls other than her and Amy are so that’s pretty likely I think. She’s also already been on her story getting defensive saying it’s only a half an hour episode so I could see her becoming the villain

Yep!! Did exactly the same thing this April for our Wedding in June! We were testing each other in the car and we were there for about 15mins in total 🤣

When we did ours, my husband went in first and wasn't certain of half the answers pertaining to the actual wedding - got the date wrong (only by a day), only knew the location of the church not the actual name etc. The (female) registrar told him that she prefers it if the brides go in first as the grooms are frequently hazy on the finer details of the weddings 😂. It's probably a good job they could see we'd been living together for 5 years a few miles away from where we were getting married!
 
Hello can I mark my place in the thread 😊
It’s my first time watching MAFSUK. I’m watching it on demand while feeding my 5 week old in the middle of the night.
franky definitely seems controlling.
I like Bob but i dint think they will last as Megan doesn’t seem as committed.
Nikita is just a cow.
The two men seem into each other if they can agree on where to live.
Anyways that’s my thoughts. 😊
