Thanks GA! About to watch it now...

AEF...so they are not legally married on the show in Australia? What's the point?

Thanks GA!

Don't know why but just seeing the experts on this show, seems to me te producers are now really trying to make the experts seem like... well, experts.

Anyway, so far seems to be a good show. The previews definitely show some drama, though will it be real drama or just played out in front of TV is yet to be determined.

Not actually being married I think takes some of the pressure off, couples can play without the fear of having to be divorced, and that might actually help them be more real and selfless, we'll see of course.

I really liked this episode, made me laugh out loud a few times. Surely not being married has to mean not as much skin in the game so less emotion, fights and easier to walk away.
