When is the final of MAFS UK? E4 confirm changes after the wrong episode was shown.
Married at First Sight UK has been at the centre of some very unfortunate technical issues this week.
And fans of the show were left baffled last night when an old episode aired.
While we were supposed to see the contestants make some big decisions about their relationships at the final commitment ceremony, Wednesday night’s penultimate instalment was shown instead.

The series is not usually shown on a Friday, but Channel 4 bosses have managed to move around their schedules.
A spokesperson confirmed: "Following the incident at the weekend, ongoing technical issues have meant that Thursday night's episode of Married at First Sight UK was a repeat from Wednesday, September 29.
"We apologise to the fans of the show and have worked hard to get the episode to you this evening at 9pm. We hope that when you finally watch it you can find out whether Amy & Josh, Tayah & Adam and Morag & Luke renew their vows."
