Wife Swap was, back in the early noughties, the ultimate guilty-pleasure television show… despite the fact it usually offered such a grim insight into people’s lives.

The concept was simple; two wives – always from dramatically different lifestyles – would agree to swap families for 10 days, with every move followed by a film crew. For the first half of this experiment, they would be forced to follow the guidelines set by their predecessor. For the second, they’d impose their own rules – and, naturally, chaos would reign supreme.

It always ended with the two families meeting to explain what they’d learned from the experience (read: the capacity for pure, vitriolic hatred), and vowing to appreciate the ‘Wife’ they’d lost for those 10 days.

Now, after eight long years, the bizarre reality show is coming back to our televisions – with a special one-off Brexit special.
