The sets of parents, who will also be setting challenges for the pair, will meet each other before revealing their presence to their unaware children.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are so excited to bring this new dating show with a sunshine twist to E4,\u201d said Phil Harris, the creative director for Thames. \u201cWe decided to take the moment you meet your in-laws and explode it E4 style to create a truly funny, cringey and memorable show. We are going to see the Instagram generation completely unfiltered in front of the people they want to impress the most.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Martin Oxley, executive producer for Motion Content Group, added: \u201cFor some, meeting the in-laws is the most stressful part of getting serious in love. The amazing team at Thames have found a unique way for families to interrogate the love in their off-spring\u2019s lives, and the results of the hilarious secret tests will have viewers hiding behind their cushions and thanking their lucky stars it\u2019s not them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Vivienne Molokwu, commissioning editor of formats and features at Channel 4, commented: \u201cThe series takes a humorous look at a relationship milestone almost everyone can relate to\u2014meeting the parents\u2014but multiplies the awkwardness of that often dreaded moment by 100 percent.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unsuspecting couples\u2019 relationships will be put to the test in E4\u2019s new factual-entertainment series BAEwatch (w\/t), co-produced by Thames and Motion Content Group.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":8919,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[862,1830,1328],"class_list":["post-8918","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-e4","tag-motion-content-group","tag-thames"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
