00:00Complete mystery, the whole thing. This is it. We don't know what to expect.

00:03These curious couples are about to find out.

00:06Oh, that is gorgeous.

00:08They're traveling to a unique retreat.

00:10Hello, you all right?

00:12Where, with the help of a specialist relationship therapist...

00:16Life is short. Why limit sex to just one person?

00:21And a group of single, available, and sexually liberated residents...

00:26It's just natural to have sex with multiple people.

00:31They're about to discover if their sexual fantasies...

00:35Oh, jeez!

00:37...can become a reality.

00:39It'd be like the idea of group sex.

00:42We were just wondering if you'd like to spend the night with us.

00:44And whether or not they'll be able to break one of society's greatest taboos...

00:49I should have been thinking about the man that I love and how he was feeling.

00:54...and have sex with other people.

00:57Oh, my God!

01:00Wow, I was not expecting that.

01:03This is the most up my comfort zone I've ever been.

01:07Open House, the great sex experiment.

01:13Already staying at the retreat are married couple John and Danielle from Bolton.

01:18Ready for this?

01:19No.

01:20Yes.

01:21Love you so much.

01:22They were sent on separate socials by Dr. Laurie...

01:26Oh, thank you.

01:27Cheers for that.

01:27Gone out on that guy separately for like 17 years.

01:30You're not shitting your pants?

01:31Yes.

01:31...to test their ability to be intimate with other people.

01:35Okay, I am.

01:40How you feeling?

01:42Nervous.

01:43New arrivals on route to the retreat today are married couple Jess and Mike from Essex.

01:49We met at the gym.

01:51I was Mike's stalker.

01:54From the get-go, like from our spin classes.

01:56We'd just be grinning like Keshe and Katz each other.

01:58Our eyes would be locked at each other and the smile would just be like endless.

02:02The couple have been together for almost 10 years and were married in 2018.

02:07I pretty much forced my cousin Maria.

02:11Yeah.

02:11Every time someone got engaged I was like, they've not been together as long as us.

02:15Like, why are you not putting a ring on?

02:18Jess and Mike have two kids and a happy home life.

02:23So who wears the trousers?

02:24Me.

02:25I wear the trousers.

02:27Jess doesn't wear the trousers.

02:30It's a shared role.

02:31And their love life still hasn't lost its spark.

02:36We pretty much have sex, I'd say, five days a week.

02:40Every week.

02:41There's not really anything that we haven't tried yet.

02:44Apart from your bum.

02:47Yeah, there's a reason why we're not trying that.

02:49It can stay an exit.

02:53After nearly a decade of monogamy, this married couple is looking to open up their relationship.

02:59Starting with a threesome.

03:02We're open to opening up sexually.

03:05I think the best case scenario is that we come out of this happy.

03:08Yeah.

03:09Hey, guys.

03:10Hey.

03:10Nice to meet you.

03:11Nice to meet you, Sue.

03:14I think I just feel nervous.

03:16You all right?

03:17How's it going, guys?

03:18You all right?

03:18Everything's so new.

03:20We've never done anything like this.

03:21Excited for it, to be honest.

03:23Hey.

03:24Hi, guys.

03:25Hi, guys.

03:26Ready to help the couple see if opening up their relationship is right for them is sex

03:32and intimacy expert, Dr. Laurie.

03:36Consensual non-monogamy, including having sex with other people, with your partner's permission,

03:41can be incredible.

03:42But opening up your relationship can be fraught with challenges, especially if you have kids

03:48that can feel really risky.

03:49So it's my job to help couples figure out if opening up their relationships is right

03:55for them.

03:57Jess and Mike step into the drawing room and take a seat.

04:02Hey, how are you doing?

04:03You all right?

04:03I'm good, thanks.

04:04So what brings you here?

04:07What is it that you're hoping to accomplish?

04:10So I've always been interested in a threesome.

04:12So bringing a woman in.

04:14We've always had that fantasy.

04:16So, yeah, it's just taking that next step to see how we feel.

04:20Are you bisexual?

04:21I'd say, like, I'm bi-curious.

04:23Okay.

04:23I'd say I was straight.

04:25What do you guys do for work?

04:27Webcaming.

04:27We had a really bad work-life balance.

04:31I was running an events company and Jess was doing makeup.

04:35So we'd pass like chips in the night.

04:36And then we started talking about webcaming.

04:40Our popularity grew so much that the money we were earning was way better than we were

04:46earning as doing these businesses.

04:47When we have sex on camera.

04:49We have only ever worked with each other.

04:51We only ever sleep with each other.

04:52And this is something that we want to explore just within our relationship.

04:56It's not about work.

04:58What are your biggest fears?

05:00I think my biggest fear is ruining what we have.

05:03You know, we've been together nine years.

05:04We've been married for four years.

05:05We've got kids.

05:06Like, we've got a life.

05:08Yes.

05:08And to lose that would be my worst nightmare.

05:12Losing trust happens when you've gone behind somebody's back and you've lied.

05:15Yeah.

05:16So I could easily see if you went off with somebody where she didn't consent, that could be a big deal.

05:23Right?

05:24Because there's a trust loss there.

05:25So today, you're going to have a social together.

05:28There will be time to get to know people.

05:31If getting one-on-one time together goes well, you can take them and invite them back to your room and just go as far as you want to go.

05:39Sounds good.

05:40Yeah.

05:40Okay, so have a wonderful time.

05:43Thank you very much.

05:44My pleasure.

05:47Even for a couple like Jess and Mike who are sexually really compatible and well-versed and whose communication around sex is excellent, the move from monogamy to non-monogamy is quite challenging.

06:02They're going to need to learn how to deal with their emotions in a different way.

06:06So what are you, like, thinking now about tonight?

06:12Don't know really.

06:12Just I think I was thinking it's the worst thing to do.

06:15Yeah.

06:16Dr. Laurie definitely makes me feel a lot more comfortable in the experience.

06:20I would say the stakes are pretty high.

06:25It's weird that we're like, this is our relationship.

06:28Yeah, so weird.

06:29This experiment could really change the dynamic of our relationship and make it a lot more stronger.

06:36But then worst case scenario for me would be that he didn't find me attractive anymore and he wanted to pursue something with someone else.

06:43It could happen.

06:45Jess runs her fingers through her sleek brown hair.

06:48Initial thoughts?

06:54Um, I reckon I want a girl.

06:56A girl?

06:56Yeah.

06:57Yeah.

06:57I don't think he's, uh...

06:59He's a shower?

06:59He's going to share that.

07:00No, I wouldn't share it, to be fair.

07:02She's stunning.

07:03Yeah, she's got good titties, too.

07:05It's the first thing you noticed.

07:06Yeah, her boobs were just, like, oinks and nice.

07:08I was like, girl, bring it in.

07:09I was looking at her smile first.

07:12Mike's helping Jess with her dress.

07:15Is that it?

07:16Yeah.

07:18Oh, no, look.

07:20Can't wear that, can I?

07:22Upstairs, Jess and Mike are minutes away from their social, where they hope to meet someone to invite back for their first ever threesome.

07:31I think the more I think about it, the more nervous it makes me.

07:34This is a completely new experience for both of us.

07:39This one.

07:40Yeah, I like that.

07:42It's exciting.

07:43The only word I have for it is exciting.

07:45They leave their room and are soon walking towards the bustling pool area.

07:50The social is hosted by open relationship veteran, Jess.

07:57Oh, my God, you both look amazing.

07:59Thank you very much.

08:00Best thing about being in an open relationship is the freedom.

08:04The freedom to be yourself, to experience the different relationships that happen without any worry that I'm going to cause pain to the people that I love.

08:13The party is jam-packed with the retreat's sexually liberated residents.

08:18Follow me.

08:19Marriage and monogamy and everything is just like a bunch of social norms.

08:23So all the rest of the animals in the world, they don't stick to one partner for life.

08:26So they just, they shag all around them.

08:27So I think, yeah, I don't think humans should be any different.

08:29I'm a woman that knows what she wants, and I've been very, very interested in having a relationship with a couple who have an open relationship.

08:39How are you doing right now?

08:40How are you?

08:41How are you doing?

08:41You all right?

08:42Good.

08:42How are you?

08:43Yeah, good, thanks.

08:43So your eyes are amazing.

08:45I don't know why you didn't see them before.

08:46I was like, stop like, don't look at her.

08:49We went upstairs.

08:49I was like, I couldn't stop looking at her boobs.

08:52Oh, when I was wearing the lemons.

08:53Yeah, because you had like the smiley face things over it.

08:55I was like, when life gives you lemons.

08:58Literally.

08:58And then I was like, oh, I want to look like a disco ball now.

09:02If you were to have a threesome with a girl, would you be comfortable with you sleeping with them?

09:08I feel like I could sit and watch.

09:10Yeah?

09:10Yeah.

09:10Oh, really?

09:11So you would be okay with him having intercourse with another woman and you sitting there just having some strawberries?

09:18Strawberries?

09:18I mean, she's got to have something.

09:21Strawberries and champagne, like literally, would you?

09:23I feel like I get, yeah.

09:24Wow, that's a good one.

09:25Cheers to you, girl.

09:27That's nice.

09:28Oh, well, how are we going?

09:29Yeah, I think the thing is...

09:31Bisexual Precious from London is keen to get to know what turns the couple on in the bedroom.

09:37I mean, would it ever get you to climax in any way?

09:40What?

09:40If you were like really like, you know, turned on.

09:43Why three women touching you?

09:46Would it like a blindfold would be good?

09:48Maybe some toys?

09:49Oh, definitely.

09:50Oh, yeah.

09:51All of that stuff goes a long way, doesn't it?

09:52It makes it better.

09:53Oh, Precious definitely catches my eye.

09:57I do like confidence and she oozes it.

10:00Precious caught my eye.

10:01We did pick up a vibe with Precious.

10:03Hi, guys.

10:05Hi.

10:06The residents have organised an erotic game.

10:10OK, so now, Jess, you have to like who you want to kiss.

10:13Yeah.

10:13It's always been just me and Jess.

10:19It's never been with anybody else.

10:21Because it's something new to us, it's just nerve-wracking.

10:26Jess pops an ice cube into her mouth and then she turns to Precious.

10:32She slips the ice cube into Precious's mouth and then Mike watches as they passionately kiss.

10:39Definitely feel attracted to Precious.

10:41A soft touch of a woman is completely different to kissing a man.

10:44I feel like me and Jess have a good vibe.

10:47Whoa!

10:48There's so much chemistry there.

10:50You ready?

10:51Oh, OK.

10:51Yeah, yeah.

10:52Ready, man.

10:54Statement.

10:55Precious clutches the back of his neck as they kiss.

11:00Watch him Mike kiss another girl.

11:04My heart like raced a tiny bit.

11:06Like when it first happened, I thought, oh my god, like, this is real.

11:10Oh my god.

11:10We both enjoyed the kissing game and we both know we would want to take that further.

11:17Game over.

11:18Jess and Mike have decided to ask Precious back to their room.

11:22Precious, we was wondering whether you'd like to spend the night with us.

11:26Yeah.

11:27Of course.

11:28Come on, I would love it.

11:29We had such chemistry, but does it mean that they're naturally going to be open to having

11:34somebody else step into their relationship?

11:36And the fact that they've never had threesomes, that's a bit concerning.

11:39It feels exciting that we're about to dip our toe into consensual non-monogamy.

11:45We've spoke about it for so long and we're now literally at that doorstep.

11:49From what we've experienced so far, I'm thinking it's going to be good.

11:51At a luxury retreat nestled in the English countryside, a remarkable experiment is taking place.

12:07What would you say your weirdest slash naughtiest fantasy is?

12:12I'd be on a plane and I want the flight attendant to come and get me and go into the toilet.

12:16I'll tell you what though, go and have sex in a steam room.

12:18That will...

12:18Oh, I've had sex in a sauna.

12:20Yeah.

12:20Sexually curious men and women are here to challenge one of society's longest standing institutions, monogamy.

12:31The idea that the only appropriate way to have a relationship is a monogamous one is outdated.

12:38Monogamy works for some people in some relationships, but you can only know that that is the right choice for you

12:45if you're aware of all the other things that are out there, so you can make a clear, informed choice.

12:51You guys look amazing.

12:52Married parents John and Danielle are on separate socials to explore how they cope with their partner spending time with the opposite sex.

13:00Your inner wife came before...

13:02Generally, we like the idea of group sex.

13:06Although the couple wanted Dr. Laurie's help to open their relationship starting with an orgy,

13:12she became concerned over their past affairs.

13:16Well, I had to... I cheated like 10 years ago.

13:20I was very angry.

13:22I didn't fully recover until I had an affair more recently.

13:27It's so much harder to open a relationship up when there's been an affair.

13:32Because the trust is broken.

13:34Man, I never really went out on dates. It was always fun.

13:36Tonight, Dr. Laurie wants them each to pick a different resident from the retreat,

13:40but she's imposed a no-sex rule to help the couple establish guidelines for the evening ahead.

13:46We've got a nice sex swing on the door.

13:48How does the sex swing work?

13:50Hands up, legs up, like that.

13:51Sounds tight.

13:52Fully exposed, fully opened up.

13:54Interesting.

13:55I'm real.

13:56I've got to take you away for a second.

13:58Are you joking or not?

13:59I don't know why I've got to take you away.

14:01Danielle is getting closer to Louis from Blackburn.

14:05I don't know what it reads for me. I just like experiencing life. That's my thing right now.

14:08Yeah, that's exactly my motto. I'm just going to do every single thing I can before I die.

14:13It was really nice talking to Louis. I think it's quite nice to talk to people one-on-one,

14:16because in the group situation, it's a completely different dynamic,

14:19so having that little private conversation, which is nice to have and get to know people a little bit better.

14:24Danielle and Louis share a sensual kiss in private.

14:27Jess, from Belfast, has caught John's eye.

14:34Do you play poker?

14:35No, I actually don't know how to play poker, no.

14:36Do you not?

14:37Have you ever played strip poker?

14:39I've played strip poker.

14:40Yeah.

14:40I've played all kinds of poker.

14:42She's an absolutely stunning lady.

14:43The Irish accent just kind of came through and looked like she was my kind of girl.

14:48And as the party slows, John and Danielle have invited their new acquaintances for some one-on-one time.

14:55I'm looking forward to spending time with Danielle.

14:57She's a cool girl, I swear.

14:58She's a really nice girl.

14:59So, yeah, I'm looking forward to actually getting to know her a bit more,

15:01in a bit more detail as well.

15:03Ladies first.

15:07That is very nice.

15:10John's really friendly.

15:11He's a good-looking guy.

15:12And I think he's quite sure of himself as well.

15:14So, it's nice that he came in with confidence.

15:17And, yeah, he just really shines tonight, yeah.

15:20These dates are crucial to Dr. Laurie's plan.

15:24Oh, thank you very much.

15:25Nice.

15:26Whoa, whoa.

15:28Smashing the place up.

15:29To test if the couple can cope with the idea of their partner having pleasure with someone else.

15:36I'm really open.

15:37John's not jealous.

15:38I just keep, like, thinking, I hope it's okay.

15:40And I hope it's going well for him.

15:41I hope he's having a good time.

15:43There we go.

15:44We've arrived.

15:45I'll be worrying about Danielle and what she's doing and all the demons that will be in my head about that whole situation.

15:54I've got to have a little bit of faith in her.

15:57In their room, Jess is watching Mike peel off Precious' dress.

16:03I can't be a size 8 with deep breasts.

16:07Jess and Mike have invited business owner Precious to join them for a threesome.

16:12I have to say, this is a fucking good evening.

16:15Oh, cheers.

16:17This is a fucking great.

16:20He's so exclusive to your face.

16:23The married couple have only slept with each other for the nine years they've been together.

16:28Mike says, I would really, really like to see you kiss.

16:34He then watches with a look of euphoria as Precious lowers herself onto Jess.

16:41Seeing Jess with another woman was really arousing for me.

16:45And it being my wife, who I love more than anything ever, was just a really good feeling.

16:55My first experience with a woman, I'm thinking, what is this? What am I doing?

16:59Yeah, it was really good.

17:01It was amazing.

17:03That's amazing.

17:04Jeez.

17:05I'm tapped out.

17:07I'm going to come up there first.

17:10Jess now lies on top of Precious.

17:12Now that the women have pleasured each other orally, Mike takes the lead with Precious.

17:23Wearing a curious smile, Jess gazes at Mike and Precious, intimately kissing right in front of her.

17:31I've never had a threesome before.

17:33It's always something I fantasised about.

17:36But seeing them passionately kissing made my heart drop a little bit.

17:42I had a slight worry that maybe that he would end up, yeah, like, shifting more, like, to her way.

17:53Precious strokes Jess's back while kissing Mike.

17:57Jess is watching them closely, her smile faltering.

18:02That little worry that he'd find her more attractive than me.

18:06Their tongues touch.

18:13Then Precious breaks away and glances at Jess.

18:16Mike's eyes are fixed on Precious as he says, I actually really enjoyed kissing you.

18:22You just don't know how you're going to feel in that moment until you're there in it.

18:27Back in their private yurts.

18:34I love sex and I want to have sex as much as I can before I'm fucking too old to fucking have as much sex as I want.

18:38I'm there.

18:40John and Danielle's separate dates are in full swing.

18:44Dr. Laurie said you can't have full sex.

18:46Sex are you saying I have sex with a girl, I have not sex with that girl because I've not got a date.

18:49Do you know what I mean?

18:50What point is sex with a girl?

18:52How do you, yeah, well I actually, I need someone to clarify this for me because if I start having sex with girls, how do you, like, how do you have your numbers up on that?

18:57If you have sex with a girl, do you give me a call?

18:58I am 100% I really want to, I'm going to have sex with lots of girls.

19:04As a trust exercise, Dr. Laurie has imposed a strict no sex rule.

19:10It's definitely a hard challenge that she set us tonight.

19:13Sex isn't on the cards, but then she said everything up to sex, so I don't actually know where my head's at with it all to be honest, sorry.

19:17I don't know.

19:25Dr. Laurie is keen for John to focus on his date and not his wife, which is easier said than done.

19:32So, we, unfortunately, it had an affair.

19:35Was that, like, a hard time for you guys, or how did that even happen?

19:39Was it the same time, or...?

19:40No, Danielle's was about ten years ago, about two months after we got married.

19:46Two months?

19:47Yeah.

19:47That's quick.

19:49To be honest with you, when we went back to the year, I was thinking about what they were up to and what they were doing.

19:54But I knew I'd have needed to try and get out of my head and not think about it.

19:59Because I think if I think about it, then it's all going to be a loss.

20:05After we decided to stay together, then I thought, I wish I didn't know.

20:09He's a really gentle soul, but he talked about the relationships a bit, and I could tell that he was kind of nervous or on edge about what she might be getting up to right now.

20:19With John's focus firmly on his wife, the pair decide to call it a night.

20:24Well, good night.

20:28Nice to spend some time with you.

20:31See you soon.

20:32We'll see you soon.

20:32Bye.

20:33Bye for now.

20:33Jess is a lovely girl.

20:38We've got a nice chat.

20:40But I think it's the same anticipation that I always have when I've not been with Danielle.

20:45But I hope I don't go back to the room on my own and don't see her again until tomorrow.

20:49John plants himself on the sofa in his room and sips champagne.

20:55On Danielle's date...

20:57I just wanted to kiss you because you kissed all the boys and I was like, no, I want to kiss you separate.

21:01I thought you were really holding on to that card like you didn't want to.

21:04Things are heating up.

21:06I'm really hoping John's OK, but I'm just hoping that when he gets back later that is OK and it's not all been a front and then break down afterwards.

21:18Have a kiss now.

21:19I'll do it.

21:20You'll do it?

21:21I'll kiss you.

21:22You have to come here, though.

21:23Would you bother me?

21:23I'll do it.

21:26She caresses his face and neck as they kiss, then breaks away in frustration.

21:33Ah!

21:33We are allowed to kiss.

21:34He's not allowed to take me on.

21:37Stop it.

21:38You stop it.

21:40So it's going to go one of two ways.

21:41It's 50-50 at this point, but I can't.

21:43I can't call it.

21:45Ah!

21:46I'm not going to be having words when they stop you in the morning, I'll tell you.

21:49I feel like John's definitely going to be expecting me to do stuff because, obviously, we both know that we both like sex and we both like other people.

21:57Ah!

21:57Sorry.

21:58You're not sorry.

21:59That's gross.

22:00You're not sorry.

22:01You're fucking loving it.

22:02That's gross.

22:03So I feel like he's going to be expecting me to do stuff already, so I don't know.

22:06I feel like I don't want to let him down, but then I also don't want to, I don't know.

22:09Danielle's got Louis' back pressed up against the headboard as she lustfully kisses him.

22:16Good question.

22:20Open House.

22:21The Great Sex Experiment.

22:23Married couple John and Danielle went on separate romantic dates with people outside of their relationship for the first time in nearly 20 years.

22:42Dr. Laurie wanted to assess whether the couple were ready to be with other people, following their past affairs.

22:52John's still sitting alone in his room.

22:54My mind's awash at this morning's time with nerves, anticipation, stress, everything, really.

23:05I don't know if I'll be spending the night on my own.

23:09The doorknob turns and Danielle walks in and says, I was like, I'm heading home or I'd be there all night.

23:18She now asks, did you have a good night?

23:21How was it?

23:24She's already talked?

23:25Yeah.

23:27A little later, John asks, are you getting into bed?

23:30After Danielle does, she says to him, I'm really disappointed you had a shit time.

23:37Fucking so pissed off, I can't even tell you.

23:40Why?

23:42I'm not bothered about talking about it.

23:45I don't see what there is to talk about.

23:50It's probably causing yourself off from you.

23:52I'm not, I'm just trying to think about it.

23:54The whole thing.

23:58I'm just not feeling it.

24:01Danielle's now fast asleep while John's wide awake, staring up at the ceiling and looking lost in his thoughts.

24:07The next day, Mike wakes up with his arms around Jess and Precious.

24:15It's the morning after Mike watched his wife Jess have oral sex with another woman for the first time.

24:22Precious gets dressed and kisses Jess and Mike goodbye.

24:26See you in a bit, yeah?

24:30Yeah, see you in a bit.

24:31Take care, see you in a bit.

24:32Bye.

24:32But for Jess, the couple's first attempt at a threesome wasn't plain sailing.

24:41I can tell there's something on your mind.

24:48Yeah, I just have a lot of emotion trained.

24:51Do you?

24:51It's more me feeling like I'm not good enough.

24:57I want to be comfortable with this.

24:58Like, I want to battle for it.

25:00Like, I do want to, like, I enjoyed it.

25:01So I want to battle through my emotions.

25:04Say it however it comes to your head.

25:06Emotions are difficult to process, like, so that becomes hard to deal with.

25:18I thought that I'd enjoy it.

25:21Like, I woke up this morning and my belly's just all over the place.

25:25There was a moment when, like, they were kissing.

25:28Like, I don't think I've ever felt that rush of, like, fear, like, thinking, oh, actually, like, you know, you're tight enough inside.

25:34I feel really not good enough.

25:36I feel like you're more excited about her than me.

25:42I've been trying to compliment you and tell you that, you know, you are worth more than everything.

25:49I've seen, I saw you last night do her more than you've ever done it to me.

25:53More than I've ever done it to you?

25:56Yeah.

25:56We've been together nine years.

25:57You're telling me that I've...

25:58I don't need to be dug into when I'm not feeling emotionally completely stable at least in the present time.

26:04Do you think that it's going to make me feel better?

26:06You're shouting at me.

26:07No.

26:08No?

26:08No, exactly.

26:09But asking you...

26:10You don't understand, though.

26:12You don't try and understand.

26:14OK, but if you don't tell me, how can I try and understand?

26:16Later, Mike and Jess are dressed for the day, and Jess is holding the door open while Mike spritzes himself with aftershave.

26:26Ready to help the couple tackle any issues from the night before is Dr. Laurie.

26:32So how did last night go?

26:38I had a moment where he was kissing her, and it felt like it sort of prolonged, like, a little bit further than...

26:47And then I sort of was like, oh, OK.

26:48Like, maybe they're more into each other than me.

26:53OK.

26:54Was it a feeling of insecurity?

26:56I think fear.

26:57Fear.

26:58Yeah.

26:59Once it finished, I literally couldn't sleep.

27:02I literally was like, whoa, like, my adrenaline was, like, running, and then I started thinking, what if I go to sleep, and it carries on?

27:10And how likely do you really think that would be?

27:14I think it's more of a me-ish, like, more of a, that I'm probably, that I'm not good, like, that he fancied her more, like, that her, like...

27:21So I'm not good, I'm not good enough.

27:23He's going to realize I'm not good enough.

27:25Have you ever felt like that before?

27:30I think I'm going to cry.

27:31That's OK. It's allowed.

27:35Yeah, I think previous relationships.

27:38Ah, OK.

27:39And have you had a situation in previous relationships where they chose somebody else?

27:45Yeah.

27:45But I really don't want that to, like, hold me back.

27:51It doesn't have to.

27:53You'll have to allow yourself the emotion.

27:55Yeah.

27:57And recognize that what happened was you were triggered.

27:59And suddenly, you didn't trust anybody in the room.

28:03Yeah, it was hard.

28:04It was, yeah, just took my, sort of, breath away.

28:07And yet, you recognized that it was a response that didn't really belong in the room.

28:13Yeah, because I know that he's not that mad.

28:16I know that that's not the case.

28:19And just for that moment, it just, yeah, triggered him.

28:22It was a really volatile relationship.

28:23And I just wanted a good man.

28:25Like, I knew when I came out of that relationship that I wanted to be with someone who treated

28:31me nice and I didn't want to go back.

28:34So how is that situation and that relationship different from this one?

28:40He was untrustworthy.

28:41We had no communication.

28:43I couldn't be myself.

28:46And so how is it with Mike?

28:47So make the contrast.

28:48We communicate.

28:51He's kind and loving and caring and just, yeah, everything that a man should be.

28:58Well, when she told me, like, the first thing I wanted to do was to reassure her that that

29:02wasn't the case and that she would always, always, always be number one.

29:06My priority is always going to be Jess and never anything less.

29:10You will diffuse this trigger.

29:11Yeah.

29:12It will at some point be so dead that it won't even cross your mind.

29:15And that's what I want.

29:16Yeah.

29:17So, tonight, I'm going to send you guys on another date.

29:22You can have a really romantic evening and do all the things that you want to do.

29:27How do you feel about that?

29:28Yeah, I feel good about that.

29:29It's not surprising that Jess freaked out during her first threesome, given her past painful

29:34history.

29:36She needs to feel important and valued by everyone in the next sexual experience.

29:40But now that she's identified the issue, it should be easier for her to have a really positive

29:47experience.

29:48I feel, like, excited for when it ever happens again.

29:56Yeah.

29:58I've been with Mike for nine years.

30:00We've always had so much trust.

30:02But my feelings are up in the air at the moment.

30:05The emotions are hard to handle.

30:09Jess staring into space while lying in bed, wearing a pensive expression.

30:18Elsewhere in the retreat, Danielle and John are lying in bed, staring into each other's eyes.

30:23Married couple John and Danielle were hoping to enrich their relationship by opening it

30:35up and having group sex.

30:38Do you know when you say you just need to be fucking angry for a bit?

30:42I've hardly been angry since last night.

30:44Dr Laurie separated the couple to test whether they were ready to be with other people following

30:50their past affairs.

30:53I'm trying my best to fucking take positives from it, and I just can't fucking see it.

30:59And I'm trying my best to persevere with something that I'm now regretting.

31:03I don't want to...

31:03It's not what I say.

31:04You're too angry at it and we can't talk, so it's just that there's an argument and I'm

31:07trying to...

31:07Let's not fucking talk then.

31:08Stop trying to calm me down, because you can't undo what's already been done.

31:15It's hard to put into words, really, how I've felt.

31:18I'm not really feeling the process.

31:19I think the concept is better than the reality.

31:27I'm quite an optimistic person, though.

31:29I can find positives in, like, anything, and I try and do it like that, whereas John

31:32is the opposite, and we'll see the negatives first.

31:34I have to try and bring it around.

31:35So I'm fucking, like, rock and a hard place.

31:38That's how I feel at this moment in time.

31:40Dr. Laurie is keen to help the couple work through the issues raised from last night's

31:49events.

31:52I was concerned that these two weren't yet ready to open up their relationship, and it's

31:57going to take some work to get to the bottom of why this is so difficult for them.

32:01Danielle and John step into the drawing room and take a seat on the sofa across from Laurie.

32:09Grab a seat.

32:11So, tell me what happened after you guys left here.

32:14So, we went to the socials, obviously, separately, which was out of my comfort zone, but I think

32:22it was all right in the end.

32:23We relaxed into it a little bit.

32:24Yeah, it was just loads of girls and different situations, I suppose.

32:29So, then what did you do afterwards?

32:31Went to the yurts with somebody each.

32:33Okay.

32:34We spent some time in there.

32:36Yeah, I enjoyed it.

32:37It was a really nice time.

32:38We were just talking and stuff like that.

32:39We had a few kisses, but nothing more than that.

32:41But it could have gone further with me, but because you'd already set the boundaries, it

32:44was quite easy, easier, I think.

32:46So, the boundary did its job, and it was very easy.

32:48Straight away, he already knew before we went there.

32:50He already knew you weren't going there.

32:51Yeah, exactly.

32:51Perfect.

32:52Did you guys have fun?

32:56I can't say I did, no.

32:58I didn't enjoy it.

32:59It was difficult.

33:00Yeah.

33:01Okay, so you've had a bad first aid experience now, but even when you go to something together,

33:08that can happen.

33:08Oh, yeah, of course.

33:09And then you have to decide how you deal with that.

33:11Like, do you say, well, if I don't click with anybody, we're going home?

33:16Yeah.

33:18Because it's never going to be exactly equal.

33:20That's not how life works.

33:22If you want to do this, you have to figure out how you deal with those feelings.

33:24Like, if she's having a good time, are you content to watch her have a good time?

33:28Yeah.

33:30You're looking at him like you don't believe him.

33:32He's angry at the situation, but the body language is like an atmosphere.

33:35And it's hard to deal with them.

33:42And that's what I'm concerned about.

33:44I see you're angry.

33:45You didn't have the experience you wanted to have, because that's definitely one of the

33:49big issues here.

33:50Right.

33:50I'm concerned that you still have trust issues, because it will drive you crazy.

33:56This whole situation is blowing my buttons, I suppose.

34:02From my perspective, for me, one thing you should take away is you're not ready to be dating

34:07in the real world.

34:12So until you actually sort out a way to process your anger and let it go, you can't bring in

34:21potential situations that are going to spark all that off.

34:23So how do you work on that?

34:26You have to do some work in therapy on the trauma that you experienced when she had her

34:31affair, because you still feel that, because it's really hard to totally heal that.

34:37I feel that I have, personally, and I think that we have, together, moved beyond that.

34:45I give you an easy way to know when something's resolved.

34:47You don't wish it never happened.

34:48You guys have done, I think, as much as you can here, in terms of opening up, because

35:00ultimately, you love each other.

35:03Yeah.

35:04Yeah.

35:05It's just going to take you longer than you thought it was.

35:08Oh, yeah.

35:08I've got every confidence in us.

35:10That's one thing that never wavers.

35:14It's good meeting you both.

35:16Cheers, Laurie.

35:18Thank you, Laurie.

35:18See you later.

35:20Danielle follows John out of the drawing room.

35:27They're a truly lovely couple, and they're strong, too.

35:31And they're very open and honest, which is absolutely key.

35:35I have no doubt they'll be able to open up their relationship and be really happy.

35:46Definitely need to let go of the best of hers.

35:48I thought we had.

35:50There's sensitive moments that come up, but generally, I have forgiven you, I don't understand

35:53it, and we have to move forward from it.

35:55Obviously, some things will still hurt.

35:56But that's not also to say that, as I say, I personally take the positives from the affairs

36:02and the problems that we've had.

36:04Yeah.

36:04Because we are closer now.

36:09My house!

36:12I feel like we can take a lot away from this experience.

36:16I still think opening up our relationship is the way forward for us, and I think it's something

36:21we will continue to work on outside of this experiment.

36:25Open house.

36:30The great sex experiment.

36:38Married couple, Jess and Mike, are getting ready for a romantic date.

36:43I love what you're wearing.

36:44I love your outfit.

36:45Thanks.

36:46I love your hair.

36:50Sorry.

36:53They're hoping tonight, Jess will conquer her fears and enjoy a successful threesome.

36:59Worst case scenario for me would be that day, I just freak out.

37:03Yeah, that I just, yeah, can't cope with the situation.

37:07I'm certainly hoping that things go further tonight than they did last night.

37:14But before we get to that point, we have to address Jess first.

37:20Hi, guys.

37:21Hey, how are you doing?

37:22You all right?

37:23Yeah, I'm good.

37:25They asked Precious on a second date, and she agreed.

37:30Yeah.

37:34How was you after last night?

37:36Um, yeah, it was really good.

37:39What, what came up then?

37:40Let's, let's just dive right in and get...

37:44So, Jess feel, Jess felt that I didn't maybe compliment her well,

37:49or she said she feels that she's not good enough.

37:52Oh, Jess.

37:53So that's not what I wanted her to feel like.

37:55In that situation.

37:56Yeah.

37:57Yeah, like when he's, like, obviously there's a lot of compliments flying,

37:59like, somewhere else.

38:00Mm.

38:01You think, oh, like, just give me, like, a couple, you know, like,

38:03just throw me some.

38:04Yeah, yeah, yeah.

38:05Yeah, yeah, yeah.

38:06Yeah.

38:07Just make me feel, like, still...

38:08Wanted.

38:09Wanted.

38:10Yeah.

38:11Aw.

38:12Maybe he just has to keep telling you.

38:14Yeah.

38:15Especially in circumstances like this.

38:16Yeah.

38:17In new circumstances.

38:18Yeah, exactly.

38:19As it's new for, like, new for you, like, it's new for me.

38:22Yeah.

38:23So it's like, I still need to know what I'm doing right.

38:25Yeah, you're still learning both of you.

38:26Learning what's good and what feels good.

38:29Should we head up?

38:30Wonderful.

38:31Yeah.

38:32Spending another night with Precious makes me feel nervous.

38:36Just because of my emotions, will they arise again?

38:40So romantic out here, isn't it?

38:41I know.

38:42It's so beautiful.

38:43Once you do start having intercourse, you go down that road,

38:46obviously those feelings develop, and that's when things can go wrong.

38:51Here we go.

38:53Ooh.

38:54Oh, lovely.

38:55Oh, you've got strawberries.

38:56Ooh, strawberries.

38:57And a bigger.

38:58Nice to come to them.

38:59My fears or concerns for this evening are that the problems manifest, and then it could

39:15potentially ruin what we have.

39:17I don't want Jess to feel uncomfortable.

39:19Mike strips off his clothes and joins Precious and Jess under the duvet.

39:27Last night, Jess, Mike and Precious limited themselves to oral sex.

39:33But not tonight.

39:37My confidence with her helped, like, the flow.

39:43And Mike was obviously thinking about me a lot as well.

39:46So, yeah, it just felt comfortable and right.

39:50Mike says to Jess, sit on my face.

39:55Changing positions, sharing the attention.

40:00It was really, really good.

40:02Mike grasps Jess's hips and bum while she's sitting on his face and kissing Precious,

40:07who's straddling Mike under the covers.

40:10We had full sex all three of us last night.

40:14It felt amazing.

40:18Mike asks Jess, do you want to sit on my cock?

40:21Precious answers, finish him off.

40:23Go on, girl.

40:24Woo!

40:25It was amazing going the whole way and not feeling, like, jealous or having them feelings that I felt the day before.

40:34Oh, fuck.

40:37Fuck, your nail is hot.

40:40Woo!

40:42Wowza.

40:43Wow.

40:44Oh, my God, Bucky's so good.

40:45Oh, my God, that was amazing.

40:47Fade.

40:48Woo!

40:50Can we high-five?

40:51Yeah.

40:52Because I feel like that was a team effort, to be fair, so...

40:58I haven't come like that in such a long time.

41:00Oh, I felt good.

41:02Lights reflect in a pool at night.

41:05Then fog shrouds the grounds around the retreat in the morning.

41:09The next morning, and Jess's fears are a long way behind her.

41:17I never thought I would meet people you really care about, you know?

41:20This is, like, the best...the best way.

41:22Outcoming.

41:23Yeah, definitely.

41:25It just sort of fits us.

41:27Like, yeah, you fit us.

41:29Yeah, definitely.

41:31Last night, well, it was really good.

41:33I thought it'd be just a sex thing for us, but it's become an emotional experience.

41:38And it's, yeah, it's lovely that we're coming out with something...

41:42I feel, like, special.

41:43Like, yeah, it's been a special time.

41:46All right, guys, I'm gonna go.

41:48It's not gonna be easy, but...

41:51We came here hoping to just sort of dip our toe into consensual non-monogamy.

41:56And we never thought it would materialise to what it has with Precious.

42:01So it's been a really nice journey for us.

42:04A really rewarding journey.

42:05Mm.

42:06It's been the best, honestly.

42:07Yeah.

42:08Thank you, Skipper.

42:10Mm.

42:12Sleeping with somebody else's husband right in front of their wife,

42:15it can be a bit daunting, but both enjoy each other.

42:18You know, they enjoy me, I enjoy them.

42:20So it could work out to something, something more.

42:23Take care, see you later.

42:24Bye, bye.

42:26A short while later, Mike and Jess step into the drawing room.

42:31Hey.

42:32Hey.

42:34Make yourselves comfy.

42:36So, last night, the three of you got together again.

42:40How'd that go?

42:41No complaints.

42:43I mean, you did.

42:45I'm sure the smile would say it all.

42:46Everybody's still grinning, right?

42:48Everybody's still grinning.

42:49So, how was it different?

42:51Me and Mike discussed how, obviously, with you, how it was going to change.

42:57So he was a lot more complimentive and a bit more towards me, wasn't it, as well?

43:01Yeah, and I made more effort to be more attentive to her needs

43:06and making sure that her needs were always being met.

43:09What was it like for you seeing him with her?

43:15I just didn't feel any...

43:16Nothing?

43:17No.

43:18I think because she was, like, on top of him and I was on his face.

43:23And then we were...

43:24Okay, so everybody was connected.

43:26Yeah.

43:27Yeah.

43:28I think that really helped.

43:29Nobody was being left out.

43:30Yeah.

43:31No jealousy at all.

43:32Isn't that amazing?

43:33Yeah.

43:34You've managed to move so much in 24 hours.

43:37Are you surprised at how far you've come?

43:40Yeah, really surprised.

43:41Especially with my emotions yesterday.

43:43Like, if it wasn't for being here, I could have run away.

43:47Okay.

43:48Yeah.

43:49Are you glad you didn't?

43:50Yeah.

43:51It's a bit weird confronting those feelings.

43:52Yeah.

43:53That's really well done.

43:54So I just need to ask you now, do you want to open up your relationship?

43:57Yeah, we...

43:58Yeah.

43:59We definitely want to open up that.

44:00Definitely.

44:01I want to wish you well.

44:04I hope the next phase is equally as exciting.

44:08I'm sure it will be.

44:10Thank you very much.

44:11Thank you so much.

44:12My pleasure.

44:13Absolutely my pleasure.

44:14Jess and Mike's outcome was absolutely brilliant.

44:23They really took on board what I said after the first night.

44:28So that their second night gave them all the connection as well as the wonderful sex that they were really seeking.

44:35I am so proud of them.

44:37They came so far in such a short period of time.

44:42Literally can't wait to cuddle the kids and just be a family.

44:46We had a takeaway night tonight.

44:47Yeah.

44:48I thought that we were strong anyway, but this has made us, like, ten times stronger than we ever thought that we could be.

44:53Yeah.

44:54You have literally, like, been amazing.

44:57You've been the best thing ever.

44:59I'm blown away.

45:01I literally love you so much.

45:03Makes us feel excited that we're now leaving the experiment and now able to sort of continue something on the outside.

45:11All I can feel at the moment is positive thoughts towards it and excitement, really.

45:16Yeah, same with me.

45:22Since leaving the retreat, Jess and Mike have opened up their relationship to different sexual partners, including Precious, who they recently met up with in London.

45:32John and Danielle have continued to explore opening up their relationship.

45:39They recently attended a sex party in London and had an amazing time.

45:46Next time, fresh arrivals Alex and Liddy get in a spin.

45:51Crazy.

45:52Yeah.

45:53I'm lost for it.

45:54I'm not going to lie.

45:55I didn't really expect all that to happen.

45:56This is the most up my comfort zone I've ever been.

45:59And newbies Liam and Stacey jump in at the deep end.

46:04Yeah.

46:05It felt normal.

46:06I enjoyed it.

46:07I enjoyed it a lot.
