Reality TV show Seven Year Switch struck a chord with Australia audiences and now, it’s been revealed season two has had an incredible number of applications.
Counsellor on the show, Jo Lamble, told AAP that the production team have had more applications than they could ever have imagined.
Season one saw 500 couples apply but that number has now been trumped before applications for season two even closed!
Lamble said she believse it’s because the show has educational qualities as well as being therapeutic for those that have been in a troubled relationship.
“I get the impression from the number of people applying, and certainly from what I’ve found from all my clients, they all want to talk about it,” she says.
“I’ll say to my clients ‘let’s just talk about your stuff’ and they’ll say ‘let’s spend some time on this.’”
“They want to discuss and learn from it. People want to see these issues discussed and they relate to the issues.”
