If you're anything like us, you'll be absolutely buzzing to sink your teeth into the upcoming season of Married at First Sight UK set to hit our screens just next month.
And it's clear we're already off to a bang with the Channel 4 dating show after rattling through a 'first look' clip which sees one couple far from hitting it off the altar.
Check it out:
The cringe-worthy clip sees groom Kieran, 28, pulling a pretty awkward prank on his future wife Kristina, 30, who clearly was not amused by the 'cheap' gimmick.

Clearly fancying himself a bit of a comedian, the mechanic decided to stick in a set of gross-looking false teeth while he waited for his dog walker bride to come down the aisle.
As Kristina smiled at her future husband, treasuring the once-in-a-lifetime moment, Kieran saw it fit to smile back - showing off a set of broken and rotting false teeth.
Needless to say, Kristina was horrified.
"These teeth. What the f**k?" the bride can then be heard exclaiming in a voiceover.

Giving a glimpse into the reasoning for his prank, Kieran tells viewers: "I think the teeth could make us look a little bit immature. I'm a little bit nervous to see how it goes.
"This could really end up bad. I just want to know if this girl's fun."
It's clear that fans were far from into the practical joke, with many even calling it an immediate 'ick' on social media.

However, since then, former MAFS UK stars have come forward to defend Kieran and even praise him for the prank under the teaser clip posted to the TV show's official Instagram.
Nikita Jasmine took to the comments writing: "My type of lad hahahaha deffo married wrong one."

Terrence Edwards quipped: "I thought @arthurporemba's 'I Love You' moment at the alter could never be topped but this is up there."
"This is gold," echoed Laura Jayne Vaughan.
Other fans rushed in with one Instagram user agreeing: "Omg yes this is hilarious cannot wait for next series!"
"I would have high fived him and thought 'that's my kinda man!'" gushed a second. "Haha, but I love to laugh so."

Another chirped: "Ahhhhh! Fantastic way to test someone’s intentions."
And a final Instagram user added: "Looking forward to this series!"
