Married at First Sight UK (MAFS) was not on last night, October 16, 2025, because E4 replaced the usual MAFS time slot with back-to-back episodes of Gogglebox instead. This marks a shift in the show's schedule from airing five nights a week to only four. Previously, MAFS aired Sunday to Thursday at 9 PM, but now it airs Sunday through Wednesday, leaving Thursday nights open for other programming like Gogglebox. These changes have been happening regularly for the current season, but E4 producers have not publicly explained the reason behind the schedule adjustment. The show is expected to continue with this four-episode-a-week format going forward.
