Sarah and Jonny are one of the pairs taking part in the programme, which sees couples explore the idea of an open relationship, and admitted in a video on TikTok that they feel somewhat embarrassed knowing that other parents will have watched the episode. 7 Sarah and Jonny are one of the couples taking part in Channel 4 TV show Open House Credit: TikTok/sarahjonny5 7 The programme sees them explore the idea of an open relationship, which led to some "dodgy looks" on the school run Credit: TikTok/sarahjonny5 7 In the last episode of Open House, the pair discussed their hopes of keeping the "spice" alive in their relationship Credit: channel 4 7 The pair already share their sex-ploits on their Instagram page - and have no qualms stripping off either Credit: instagram/sarahjonny_ "Well that was slightly awkward school run, wasn't it love?" Sarah asked her other half. To which Jonny, who was driving at the time, replied: "Well they're getting a bit more awkward aren't they? "A few more dodgy looks!" "I just drive and hide in the car and Johnny goes and takes the kids," Sarah added on their way back home. But the pair said that next week's response to the Channel 4 programme is likely to be even more noticeable. "Yeah, next week's going to be more interesting!" Sarah acknowledged with a giggle. In the last episode of Open House, Sarah and Jonny admitted they've been trying to open up their relationship for the past two years, but "keep bottling out at the last minute". "Will they be able to overcome their nerves and how will Jonny feel if he needs to share Sarah with another man?" a description of the episode in an online TV guide reads. As for what's happening in the next installment, the synopsis continued: "With a second night ahead, it remains to be seen whether they can yet partake in sex with their partners and other people". "Do you reckon they've seen us somewhere before?" Sarah and Jonny captioned the video while sharing it on TikTok. Taking lovers has improved our relationship but threesome on TV left me in tears - I couldn't warn my six kids And, predictably, the comments section was immediately filled with those debating whether or not the couple had anything to feel awkward about. "What do you expect?" one sighed, in a comment that's had 92 likes. "I found it awkward enough doing the school run after I'd been on Tipping Point, let alone this," another hilariously wrote. "Love your confidence and haven't seen the show, but please monitor how other kids will treat your kids," a third posted. "Aww hi you two!! It'll be more interesting after next week's episode!" someone else agreed. While another urged the couple to "embrace it". What is an open relationship? An open relationship means having more than one sexual partner at the same time. Both parties in the relationship agree to be non-exclusive and one or both parties engages in sexual activities outside the relationship. If one or both parties engage in sexual relationships without an agreement, this would be classed as cheating. Other names for an open relationship are polyamory and consensual non-monogamy. "Nothing to be embarrassed about!" they added. "They'll be asking you questions soon!" "You're here for a good time not a long time, they're probably jealous!" another wrote. "I'd be asking you all the questions!" "They're watching it though?" someone else pointed out. "Why else would they be watching if they weren't interested?" 7 They both admitted they were feeling "nervous" and "excited" as they were driven to the location Credit: channel 4 7 The couples stay at this luxury retreat as they explore the concept of polygamy Credit: channel 4

Our Yorkshire Farm's Amanda Owen overwhelmed by fan support after 'announcement'
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Channel 4's 'Our Farm Next Door' sensation Amanda Owen has been inundated with fan love after opening up about the show's production on her farm. The reality hit gives viewers an intimate glimpse into the lives of Amanda, her husband Clive, and their nine children as they tackle the immense project of renovating a beautiful but dilapidated farmhouse in the stunning Yorkshire Dales. Amanda recently took to social media to express her gratitude and showcase some heartfelt off-camera moments, paying homage to the people working tirelessly behind the scenes. In her heartfelt message, she expressed, "Whilst on the theme of people behind the scenes involved in the renovation project, it's important to acknowledge the talented folk who create the TV series Our Farm Next Door." Detailing the ethos behind the series, she mentioned, "Reality appears to be used very loosely in many instances, but we wanted a non-scripted, no scene set up, accurate portrayal of the realities of farming, families, friends complete with the flare ups, feuds and **** ups! *click bait provided*.", reports Gloucestershire Live. Voicing her appreciation for the unique collaboration, Amanda said, "To be given this opportunity by @channel4 and @wiseowlfilms and to find ourselves working with a dedicated, devoted and it has to be said, fearless team and crew has been brilliant." She praised the resilience of the crew saying, "Nothing fazes them, be it snow drifts, incessant rain, ten people all talking at the same time, swear words, incoherent mumblings, and constant distractions, they have taken it all in their stride and somehow managed to make sense of it all without going completely mad." Amanda expressed her appreciation in her message, stating: "They ignored all warnings of what not to work with, children and animals and have made what I reckon to be an aesthetically pleasing, gentle series that represents us, quietly explores the rich heritage of the area and what shaped our countryside. "All whilst championing the often overlooked craftsmen and farmers who retain the knowledge, skills and understanding that was there long before our generation rebranded it and call it our own. Sustainable, regenerative, self-sufficient, simple living, foods, comforts and a strong work ethic. (Image: (Image: Channel 4)) (Image: Renegade Pictures) "I know that there were many less pleasant aspects and terrible hardships endured, but we are fortunate that we can pick which elements of the past we take away and where we can make improvements. There's one overriding element that jumps out from the diary and that is that some aspects of life never change and it's these human, relatable diary entries that resonate with me the most," according to a report by the Express. "Thank you's go out to Paul, Jayne, Mark, Rebecca, and Lindsay, and all at @wiseowlfilms @channel4 and ultimately @jocantello1 who has never wavered or wobbled when I most certainly have. Don't worry, this is not an Oscar acceptance, so I'm not going to thank the farm's namesake, Anthony Clarkson." Amanda's latest post sparked an outpouring of support from fans, who flooded the comments section with words of encouragement and praise. One eager fan exclaimed: "Absolutely loving seeing you all back on our screens," while another gushed about the show: "Well said! It's a brilliant show, love watching you all. ". One captivated follower cooed, "You have a great way with words, Amanda. I'm absolutely loving this series. I often feel jealous of the wonderful places you live and work in. There is so much history, and you are adding to it with the loving way you are bringing that cottage back to life." Another fan expressed admiration for the show's visual and educational elements: "Just lovely seeing the changes taking place in Anty Johns. The history element is also fascinating."
