Married at First Sight a labour of love

Sharon and Michelle were tall girls which caused a bit of consternation at the altar when Sharon was allotted tall Nick and Michelle had to declare her vows to short Jesse.

Well that's me dragged out, bored rigid, and fed up to the back molars.

Reality tele Tuesday night, Married at First Sight Australia, TV2 was beyond dire.

But I feel like the opportunity presented itself because there are many viewers out there in sofa-land (or sprawled in bed-land) who crave a possible love match, a Barbara Cartland, Mills and Boon type girl might get boy or boy might impress girl thing.

This week was a hot doozy as they shouted this episode from the rooftops because it was a double wedding with the nuptials lining up identical blonde twins - tall, ravishing, 31, single from Perth.

Over to their match-up husbands-to-be.

The selection panel flicked through possible pics of men on their mega screen and recited their profiles with gusto.

They said it was a "hard science" matching the couples.

What hard science? All I could make out was most of the profiled contestants had been dumped, cheated on or were the cheater and the dumper and these were the important facts in making the panel's choice.

This episode even began with a chap lying listlessly in a Sydney hotel room because his new wife he'd married just last week had fled 10 minutes after the ceremony.

How mortifying being on tele, ditched in front of millions of viewers and having to maintain a brave face at all costs.

Speaking of costs.

I'm assuming these searching-for-love contestants were in it for the money, a shot at some tele fame and not forgetting the all expenses paid posh frocks, suits, wedding, honeymoon on a tropic isle. Otherwise, why would you enter?

Did they really believe that because they were still single, their judgement was skewed so why not invest their faith in the experts for a match made in heaven?

But to crow on about identical twins: how fabulous were they? They even wore identical fluffy frocks, chandelier earrings and had their golden tresses styled in identical ripples.

But horrors of horrors, the lovely Sharon and Michelle were tall girls which caused a bit of consternation at the altar when Sharon was allotted tall Nick and Michelle had to declare her vows to short Jesse...darn that wasn't a good start.

Michelle was miffed and from the first "you may kiss the bride" peck said she wasn't "sexually" turned on.

The couples had a huge reception and left on their honeymoons.

There was more the following night but I couldn't tune in again...I just didn't feel the love.
