Our nation of reality television show lovers is not quite done with Seven Year Switch.
Speaking to AAP, one of the show’s two counsellors, Jo Lamble said the show has been inundated with applicants for season two.
“They had more than 500 the first time, and you’d think after people had watched it they would say ‘’no I don’t want to do that’ and yet they’ve had far more.”
The show takes four pairs of long-term partners whose relationships are facing major challenges and swaps participants around, giving each person a new “partner” for two weeks.
During that time the original couples have limited access to one another and are encouraged to interact in relationship-like scenarios with their new, temporary partner.
