Married At First Sight UK is back!
In the brand new series - coming very soon on E4 - nine grooms and seven brides will be paired up by relationship experts, only meeting for the first time when they walk down the aisle to tie the knot.
This time the show is adopting the supersized Australian version of the format, which will see the newly-formed couples go on luxurious honeymoons before all of them move in together in a block of apartments to see how their relationships develop.
Scroll on to meet the participants!
