Married At First Sight UK's line-up has officially been announced - and it looks like we're in for an absolute corker of a series.
Running across 21 episodes, the show is set to offer up eight couples as they meet at the altar for the very first time.
And it has been given a serious re-vamp this year, to follow the hugely successful Australian format.

And now there's an explosive trailer.
Check it out below:
The couples will not only meet for the first time at the alter, but also share their experiences on their honeymoon, at regular mixers with the other couples, during commitment ceremonies and on a stay at a luxury accommodation complex.

MAFS Australia OG Melanie Schilling has also been roped in to offer her expertise this year, alongside Sex and Relationship Therapist, Charlene Douglas and series regular Paul C. Brunson (Celebs Go Dating).
So, shall we get to know this year's contestants? Here's some deets about the below (though we won't find out who they are paired with until the show airs...)
The grooms
Adam, 26, works as an electrician in Doncaster
Adam has never had time to find himself a girlfriend, seeing as he spends all his time either working or in the gym.

But now he's looking to carve out a slot in his schedule for the right person.
Adam says his ideal match is someone with nice eyes, who is naturally pretty. They must also be ambitious, spontaneous and positive.
Adam loves pushing himself, being challenged and trying new things, so wants to see his potential partner challenge him in a new way.

Ant has no issues int he confidence department. He knows he's good looking, and he says he needs a girl who can handle the attention that comes his way.

He’s on the show to learn how to develop and open up emotionally, after having learnt the hard way to not take life for granted.
Ultimately, Ant is a good egg looking for the right girl - you just have to crack his handsome outer shell first, if he does say so himself!

Having fought for his country for 15 years and lived as an expat for 15 years in Dubai, Franky wants to find his soulmate who’ll be happy to join him overseas when the experiment is over.
