The streaming giant explained: "The UK and Ireland-based singles who want to be loved for who they are have signed up for a less-conventional approach to modern dating, and will choose someone to marry without ever meeting them.
"Over several weeks, the newly engaged couples will move in together, plan their wedding and find out if their physical connection matches their strong emotional bond developed in the Pods.
"When their wedding day arrives, will real-world realities and external factors push them apart, or will they marry the person they fell blindly in love with?
"Hosted by Matt and Emma Willis, this series will uncover whether looks,
race
or age do matter, or if love really is blind."

Today's top TV and streaming choices: The Galway Races, A Killer's Confession and Blood Father
Racing From Galway Monday-Thursday, RTÉ2, times vary; Friday, TG4, 4.45pm Ruby Walsh is joined by Fran Berry, Jane Mangan and Lisa O'Neill for the first four days of this year's Summer Festival. Then, on Friday, Seán Bán Breathnach takes over presenting duties. Fake or Fortune? BBC One, 9pm Fiona Bruce and Philip Mould's latest artistic investigation involves a pair of paintings whose owners hope are previously unknown works by Renoir. In 2016, a car carrying a Cork family on their way to see Santa collided with another carrying three young men on Military Road in Co Waterford. This documentary revisits one of the most devastating road collisions in Irish history. The Veil RTÉ2, 10.35pm The lines between truth and lies are becoming blurred as Steven Knight's espionage thriller continues. This time, Imogen manages to bring Adilah and her daughter back together in Paris, but is she getting any closer to uncovering the truth? Blood Father TG4, 10pm An ex-con gets a chance to prove his worth by protecting his estranged 17-year-old daughter from the drug dealers on her trail. Mel Gibson, Erin Moriarty and Diego Luna star. ADVERTISEMENT Shiny Happy People: The Teenage Holy War Prime Video, streaming now 'How do you know you're in a cult if it's your normal?' For most under the power of leader Ron Luce, believing you were meant to die a teen martyr for Christ was normal... It would appear there was so much for the Teen Mania Ministries escapees to unpack of their time at the church that Emmy-winning filmmakers Nicole Newnham and Cori Shepherd are back with a second season. They continue to focus on America's largest youth ministry, which attracted millions through wildly popular stadium shows known as 'Acquire the Fire'. Packed with Millennial-era energy and copious levels of cringe, the series captures massive crowds of teens swept up in fervent religious concerts, purity pledges, and missionary zeal — when all most of them needed was a decent regular rave to attend. Beneath the polished youth group image, it reveals rigid spiritual training, theatrical indoctrination, and emotional manipulation orchestrated by Luce. My Melody & Kuromi Netflix, streaming now Fellow Sanrio fans, rejoice! In this charming stop-motion series, celebrating their respective birthdays, (cooler) younger sister Kuromi hunts for My Melody's cake secret, triggering sweet chaos in Mariland. If you can't handle the kawaii burblings, consider watching on mute; it's worth it for the animation. A Normal Woman Netflix, streaming now A socialite's life unravels when a mysterious illness — and her family's disbelief (and latent misogyny) — push her to sabotage her perfect facade and uncover a darker, truer self. Happy Gilmore 2 Netflix, streaming now Yay, 1990s nostalgia! Can you believe it took only three decades for a sequel to this Adam Sandler vehicle? That's either an exceedingly good or a not-so-good sign. It was also released straight to Netflix. Take from that what you will. Hitmakers Netflix, streaming now Twelve top songwriters and producers come together at high-stakes music camps to create hits for stars like John Legend, Shaboozey, and Lisa of Blackpink — revealing the creative tension and breakthroughs behind the music-making process (for humans). This week's K-drama features the rising threat of illegal firearms and shootings; an unsettling shift in South Korea's typically gun-free landscape. The Facebook Honeytrap: Catching a Killer Prime Video, streaming now A woman grappling with chronic illness helps track down her aunt's murderer from 6,000 miles away. How? By using fake profiles, unseen messages, and sheer determination, all from her couch in the UK. For yet more true crime on Prime, there's A Killer's Confession (Christopher Halliwell's, to be precise), landing today.
