Newlyweds ITVBe

HelenSomerset, 25 February, 2015 at 22:08 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 41

Has anyone been watching this? Believe it is a series but only the first episode has been shown. I have seen the first 30 minutes and am not sure what to make of it. You can see where the cracks are going to be in the relationships before they even get married! Any thoughts from fellow newlyweds / old marrieds?

    Haha, might be watching that on catch up tomorrow! Thanks for the tip, bored stiff otherwise, say yes to the dress isn't as much fun now that I'm married! I'll report back if I find it

    Look out for a car crash moment where one bride sacks her three bridesmaids for not losing enough weight before the wedding!!

    Jesus, where did they find these people?! None of these people were ready to get married! Best line of the episode though was unless you're dying keep trying

    The 4 hours between getting in from work and going to bed mainly - then weekends. But I don't go out an awful lot - I'm not a hermit, but I don't have a hectic social life (about which I'm very glad).

    I've never seen this show though - I saw the trailers inbetween episodes of Dinner Date (which my H inexplicably likes) and decided it looks too awful to contemplate. I never really watch reality TV, but my H will get drawn into stuff like that so it's best to flip the channel before it even starts!

    They are charming, aren't they? I only watched it because I saw the trailer during Dinner Date too - unfortunately it didn't put me off! As a disclaimer, I only watch Dinner Date because the cat enjoys it. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

    I'm off sick too so I'll watch anything to keep me entertained. So long as it doesn't have food in it, not good with nausea I find.

    Why did no one on here mention glittering the lawn! I now feel that I've missed out...

    Aww, you still feeling queasy? Haha, yeah, if I'd had grass I'd totally have glittered it, who doesn't!

    Glittering the lawn! Hilarious!

    Although I did like the woman that was marrying the bloke called Alaska's white floral muff thing. Not seen that before. Good idea for a winter wedding.

    Muff sounds rude but you know what I mean..

    I'm weirdly attracted to this programme, I just can't believe how stupid these people are but it just makes me grin so much. If you think that marital problems are bringing you down, this programme is a must.

    I think my favourite couple is Blair and Jeff. The others drive me crazy. What is with the whole little woman thing? One who's supposed to stay at home and one who is supposed to let her husband make all the decisions? Bleurgh!

    Jeff and Blair are my favourite too. Weirdly despite Blair being massively over the top, in comparison to the others, they are the most normal! They also seem to care about each other's feelings which I am not sure some of the others do!

    Yep, this is exactly my thoughts on it too. I can't stand the couple where she's become a housewife, they really get my back up. Just seems wrong

    Kathryn & John get my back up, but I'm kind of ambivalent about the housewife thing. If OH and I are lucky enough to have a family, ideally we'd like for me to become a stay-at-home mum, so that in itself I don't think is too 1950s-in-a-bad-way. The ones I really can't get over are Alaska and whats-her-name. All that "You're the man of the house. I have no say". WTF?!

    Yeah, sorry, I should clarify that its not the housewife bit that bugs me (although she doesn't seem to want to) they're just weird! Been together less than a year, hadn't lived together, seem very forced, urgh. Yeah, the man of the house thing is ridiculous.

    The same with me. I need to start deleting and / or watching stuff before Mr Erin gets too angry about it!

    This sounds amazing but what's ITVb? Can you get that through Virgin?

    If that's really obvious don't laugh - I only use TV for One Born Every Minute lol!

    It's just on freeview so I assume you'd get it on Virgin too. Can anyone with Virgin confirm..?
