Bride & Prejudice (also known as Bride & Prejudice: The Forbidden Weddings) is an Australian reality dating television show which premiered on the Seven Network on 30 January 2017. The series is an adaptation of an American program of the same name which debuted in 2016.[1] The program follows couples planning to wed, but whose family disapprove of their relationship.[2] A British version began broadcasting on Channel 4 on 5 June 2018.

Production

Seven put out a casting call in June 2016 seeking couples in diverse, multicultural or progressive relationships. At the network's upfronts in October 2016, the network announced a "controversial new show" which was still filming at the time, whose format was being kept under wraps because disclosing details and the title of the program could affect participants.[3][4] It was confirmed in December 2016 that the program was Bride & Prejudice.[5]

Broadcast

The series began airing at 9:00 pm on 30 January 2017.[6] Episode 5 aired out of timeslot on Wednesday, 22 February 2017 as a late replacement due to an episode of Murder Uncovered being pulled from its regular timeslot for legal reasons.[7]
