Your favourite Married at First Sight UK and Australia villains and lovers might be making a return to your screens as it's been revealed that a spin-off show is coming to E4.

The spin-off, which is the first of it's kind, is simply called Second Married at First Sight and will feature a cast that's half British and half Australian. They will all be MAFS alums, meaning they've appeared on the show before but for whatever reason were not successful in love.

With the Brits being matched to Aussies and vice versa, the couples will have to navigate their cultural differences and revisit their first MAFS experiences before heading to Australia to meet friends and family on the other side of the world.

After tests and tribulations the couples will face the ultimate decision: who will consider uprooting their life for love?

Second Married at First Sight was announced at a Channel 4 showcase in London in Feburary. MAFS UK producer CPL Productions are behind the upcoming series.

Channel 4 entertainment boss Steve Handley said: "These eight well-loved MAFS singles didn’t find lasting love the first time, but they haven’t given up – and neither have we.

"Everyone deserves a second chance at love and this time they’re saying ‘I do’ to a stranger on the other side of the world, risking absolutely everything for another shot at getting it right. I think it will be our greatest love story yet."
