00:00How are you feeling?
00:05Anxious. It's just the unknown, isn't it?
00:08Yes.
00:10En route to the unique retreat today are married couple Jamie and Charmaine from Essex.
00:16I do put you in some situations, don't I?
00:21Jamie is very laid back. That's like the first thing that comes to mind when I think of Jamie.
00:27I would describe myself as quiet, private.
00:31In the past I've spoke for you a lot haven't I?
00:34Yeah.
00:35I'm very chaotic.
00:37The couple have been together for eight years and have three children.
00:42Two from Charmaine's previous relationship and one together.
00:46Our lives are very mundane.
00:48Just a normal family, just trying to get by.
00:51Very unsuspecting to do something like this.
00:54Charmaine believes that opening up their relationship will make up for lost time.
01:01When I was 18 I was raising children so I never had that sort of rebellious teenage stage.
01:09You know, drinking, partying and neither of us have been with like lots of previous sexual partners even now.
01:18Me and Jamie we don't go out socialising loads.
01:21So the social aspect of opening up is just as appealing for us as like the sexual aspect.
01:27No going back now.
01:30If you're secure in your relationship that opening up can be a great thing.
01:36It has an element of honesty about what it is you desire.
01:39I just feel like we're not meant to be with one person our whole lives.
01:42I feel like why would we limit ourselves to one person if we can experience all of these different things together.
01:49How are you feeling?
01:51I'm nervous to meet new people but I think it will be a good thing for us.
01:57It's got to go with it.
01:59I am a little bit worried that this experience might cause a lot of conflict if it was to go wrong.
02:06You know, it's not just us to think about, it's all of the children.
02:11You're not riding on this then?
02:12Yeah, there is a lot.
02:14There's a lot at stake.
02:16It's not something we've taken lightly.
02:18I feel like we're walking into a lion's den to be honest.
02:22I'm anxious of the unknown and the fact that if we do end up opening up,
02:27I don't know how I'm going to feel in that moment.
02:30Sort of doing this is very out of character for me.
02:35This is it.
02:36What are we doing?
02:41Oh my God, they're so cute.
02:43Welcome!
02:44Hiya!
02:47I know couples coming to the retreat are going to be extremely nervous.
02:50What are we getting ourselves into?
02:52Are you okay?
02:53My advice is to rip that bandaid off and just do it.
02:57Hello guys!
02:58Hi, I'm Jen.
02:59How you doing?
03:00Welcome to the house.
03:01Can't wait to get to know them.
03:02Yeah, I think there's definitely an initial sexual attraction there for us.
03:06Yeah, for sure.
03:07Hello, gorgeous.
03:08Welcome.
03:09So, we're looking forward to seeing where we can take things.
03:12Lily.
03:13I'm Charmaine.
03:14Charmaine, nice to meet you.
03:15Charmaine and Jamie are super hot.
03:17They seem really friendly and nice.
03:18Excited to be here.
03:19A bit nervous.
03:20Yeah, we're nervous.
03:21We're definitely nervous but we are excited.
03:23Everyone here is super lovely.
03:25Jamie did seem a little bit apprehensive.
03:27Maybe a little bit of nerves there.
03:29What do you think?
03:30Yeah.
03:31He's a bit of you, isn't he?
03:32Yeah, they're both really good.
03:33Everyone's like, oh.
03:35Book the order room for tonight, please.
03:38I don't think we expected to be greeted by so many people but I think it was very daunting
03:43sort of walking into that situation because it's the unknown and everybody's so confident.
03:47God.
03:48I love you.
03:49I love you too.
03:50Are you okay?
03:51Sure.
03:52I can feel you.
03:53I can feel you.
03:54On hand to help Charmaine and Jamie navigate opening up their relationship is non-monogamy coach Effie Blue.
04:14Hello.
04:15Welcome.
04:16Welcome.
04:17I'm Effie.
04:18Nice to meet you.
04:19You too.
04:20Come in, come in.
04:21Take a seat on the couch, make yourselves comfortable.
04:30What brings you here today?
04:32I think opening up has been something that we've spoken about for about five years maybe now.
04:38Four or five years at least.
04:40So is variety something that kind of excites you?
04:45Neither of us have had much, like many sexual partners in the past.
04:49I've only slept with three people.
04:52Okay.
04:53Whose idea was opening up?
04:55It was mine.
04:56Okay.
04:57It was mine.
04:58I'm just the bad influence.
04:59Okay.
05:00How did you throw it on?
05:01I think that I said, like, I'd like to see him with another woman.
05:04Okay.
05:05Um, at first I was a bit like, okay, I wasn't expecting this.
05:10Um, and the more I thought about it, I sort of thought, perhaps if we are going to open up, the safest route would be to do it together.
05:18Okay.
05:19With another couple.
05:20Okay.
05:21What do you think is going to be the biggest hurdle for you?
05:24I think for me, maybe the fear of rejection a little bit.
05:30I have quite a few insecurities.
05:33I've had my children very young, so obviously, you know, my body has changed a lot.
05:38So, like, the idea of approaching people and being rejected, that makes me nervous.
05:44Everybody is afraid of being rejected, especially in the non-monogamy world.
05:49And more often than not, no one's really rejecting the person.
05:53It's just about what they want and what they're looking for doesn't align with what you're looking for.
05:59Does that make sense?
06:00Yeah, that makes sense.
06:02For you, Jamie?
06:03What do you think is going to be the biggest hurdle for you?
06:05I feel like the social aspect of it will be the biggest barrier.
06:09I feel like I can, you can probably see it now, I talk over Jamie a lot.
06:13I feel like I lead the conversations.
06:15Do you feel that?
06:16Do you have awareness of that?
06:18Yes, sometimes I'm grateful for it as well though.
06:21Mm-hmm.
06:22Sometimes I think it takes the pressure off.
06:24Mm-hmm.
06:26I can sort of hide behind her, I guess.
06:29Yeah, yeah, for sure, yeah.
06:30Do you feel seen?
06:33I try and hide.
06:34I try to be unseen.
06:35Tell me why you want to be unseen.
06:36Erm, I'm guessing, erm, it feels, erm, safer.
06:45Yeah.
06:47OK.
06:55I, erm, I spend a lot of time questioning what people's intentions actually are.
07:00Can you imagine that makes connecting really hard?
07:03It can do, yeah.
07:04Yeah.
07:05Why do you want to take this, like, massive leap into non-monogamy, which is going to challenge
07:15all these things that you're struggling with?
07:17We go backwards and forwards, don't we?
07:19Like, is it something we really, really want?
07:21Sure.
07:22It's a big decision.
07:23Or is it something that is just a fantasy?
07:26Mm-hmm.
07:27Tonight, there's going to be a social.
07:29Because we like to party around here.
07:32I want to challenge you, because this is what this is about.
07:35When you meet somebody, when you're in a social circle, the whisper in the back of your head is saying,
07:39this person has the potential to hurt me.
07:41Can we change that whisper to, I want to get to know this person?
07:45What are they passionate about?
07:47Does that make sense?
07:49I feel like that's given me a lot to work with.
07:52Right.
07:53And then, hopefully, you would have connected with a couple that might join you this evening.
08:01No pressure.
08:02Okay.
08:04Thank you for sharing.
08:11Oh, wow.
08:13Oh, my goodness.
08:14Oh, my goodness.
08:16Yes, I pray.
08:17Jamie has deep shyness and mistrust.
08:20And I am worried that that might get in the way of him making the connections.
08:24I'm hoping that he won't shut down.
08:26I thought you snowed on a lot more.
08:28You know me.
08:30I don't get emotional in front of people.
08:32Apart from you, who gets the absolute brunt of it.
08:37I do feel that because I was the one that sort of instigated the conversation about opening up with Jamie,
08:44I feel like I'm the more eager of the two.
08:47And I think I'm a little bit worried that Jamie's sort of confidence or insecurities, if you will,
08:56will sort of hold me back.
09:00I think the biggest hurdle for us will be...
09:02Me trusting people.
09:04Try not to analyse into how you're feeling too much.
09:09Obviously, I'm going to try and do that.
09:10Yeah.
09:11But this is a lifelong habit.
09:13I don't think it's going to come that easily.
09:14No.
09:15I don't think anything worth having comes easy.
09:22Previously on Open House...
09:24It's two guys!
09:25Woo!
09:26Back in the lip!
09:28I have identified as gay since I came out when I was 18.
09:33Today, I don't know.
09:37I'm interested in being with a woman sexually.
09:40The worst case scenario would be reacting in a way which I'm not expecting.
09:44You've not explored a female body.
09:47Hmm.
09:48Do you know what you're doing?
09:49I do not know what I'm doing.
09:51No, no, no.
09:52We don't know what we're doing.
09:53Maybe go and have a chat with Naomi and Jen.
09:57Yeah.
09:58Let's fucking do it.
09:59Let's fucking do it.
10:04This is definitely a very big moment in our relationship because this is a doorway towards something which could be like a huge change for us.
10:20Engaged couple Chris and Simon are at the retreat to discover if they have any attraction to women.
10:27You guys are so fun.
10:29To help find the answers, they have invited residents Jen and Naomi to the hot tub.
10:34I just didn't stop laughing with you.
10:38We just had such a fun interaction.
10:40It was really funny.
10:41Yeah, that's nice.
10:42Sorry, I was just playing with your feet.
10:44Sorry about that.
10:45That's okay.
10:46Is that okay?
10:47That is actually very okay.
10:48I'm actually very into that.
10:50My biggest turn on is someone playing with my feet or sucking my toes.
10:52No way.
10:53Go on.
10:54Nick it.
10:55Come on, is it a bit too...
10:56No.
10:57They're there when you want them.
11:00Oh my goodness.
11:01We're only two minutes in and we've got the foot set.
11:03Yeah.
11:04Okay.
11:05I think I'd been in the hot tub for approximately 30 seconds before Simon sucked my toe.
11:13I love that though.
11:14I think that's amazing.
11:15Love a foot mile.
11:17I am very attracted to both of you girls and I would be definitely up for at least having a kiss.
11:25I'm down for that.
11:27So yeah.
11:28So would you like a kiss?
11:29I love this much.
11:30I love this much.
11:40Seeing Simon kiss a woman in front of me was jaw dropping.
11:45He really went in for it.
11:46Simon matched my kissing like straight away and that's rare.
11:47Like if someone can do that.
11:48It would be cute.
11:49I don't want you to be myself.
11:50Go on.
11:52That was a great kiss.
12:04I enjoyed that.
12:07that was a great kiss I enjoyed that are you ready for a kiss
12:23um I don't know I think I might be more attracted to Naomi okay um no problem
12:38come on I'm sorry I'm gonna just watch
12:45seeing Chris kiss Naomi was very hot I absolutely loved it
12:56oh yeah I don't know what you said I was just asking if he's nice nice nice I thought he said
13:09that's something now and I was like what how are you feeling it's way past my bedtime
13:21right um I think probably gonna call it a night
13:29um just take your time to like go through because this is a huge thing for you guys to do
13:36I thought Simon seemed really keen and playful but I think maybe there was a difference of where
13:43they wanted it to go I feel like ending the night where we did was probably the right call
13:50because I wanted to progress but the fact that Chris rejected Jen did make me feel as though
14:01the night itself wasn't gonna probably progress any further
14:04are you okay yeah good I'm going to the detail tomorrow I don't want to talk to you about it
14:13how did you sleep I woke up a few times I think engaged couple Chris and Simon have woken up to their second day at the retreat
14:40I think maybe Chris was a little more reserved he was a bit more nervous yeah I think if Simon was on his own with us he would have taken it further last night yeah no I completely agree yeah how do you think they feel today hopefully they're both on the same page because it'd be really awkward if they weren't
15:08yeah
15:11ready for a round of golf
15:15ready for a hole or two
15:17why can't it be that funny in front of girls
15:21terrible you are funny
15:22I'm not
15:23you were making a lot of loads last night
15:24I'm feeling mixed emotions about last night Chris didn't feel comfortable kissing Jen that was a bit like okay how are we gonna navigate this then moving forward how are we feeling
15:33a bit deflated yeah what happened last night with the girls was really fun really exciting really enjoyed it but while I've been saying that there are like no expectations I probably did have expectations
15:51to be honest it it felt like even though it was just a kiss like that still felt rushed for me yeah like I am a real slow burner
16:00given that we had like the social mixer and then we have the hots of experience and you still feel like that was rushed yeah yeah I don't take pushing that any further I think would have been a mistake
16:13I'm conscious that we're both here to do things together but maybe would need to go about a slightly different ways
16:22right
16:23I guess that's part of the whole thing with exploring non monogamy is you do always in the back of your mind think about your partner
16:31but I think it's really important to understand my sexuality better because it's an integral part of who I am
16:37I'm feeling a little bit disappointed I think okay that's probably how I'd put it okay do you tell so yeah last night things got quite playful
17:01with Jen Naomi and I started kissing okay which was really good fun really enjoyed it
17:10I was like ready to go oh yeah like this is let's take this further to the next step
17:15mm-hmm what was it like for you Chris so I only had a kiss with Naomi okay I was expecting there to be like a like a spark
17:22or something like that and I didn't particularly feel that okay what do you think got in the way for you
17:30I don't think I've ever met anyone and on the same night kiss them okay tell me about the disappointment and the deflation
17:39the hope was that I was going to come into this and leave feeling as though I did have that spark and arousal towards women
17:48and I feel like the experience that I had last night didn't prove that okay okay I understand that
17:53yeah um do you think Chris being there had any impact on your experience at all I think I have found
17:59myself a bit worried about you not worried about you really I have had a bit of like in the back of my head
18:06like is he okay are you doing okay so is there anything that we need to talk about here I just like having
18:17Simon around what sometimes happens is when the other person's been there for a while and you kind
18:22of both lean on each other we lose sight of our individual confidence and inner strength so make sense
18:29absolutely okay beautiful I think I have a plan how to explore so would you be willing to have two
18:38two separate experiences today yes okay we can certainly give it a try give it a try yeah I am
18:48feeling nervous about having to go into another social situation you'll be fine there were definitely
18:53points last night where I think it goes looking for Chris so while I love you it will be quite nice to
19:00maybe not have Chris around tonight go forth and have fun because I really don't feel like I can
19:10progress in my sexual relationships as long as I am still unsure in exactly what it is that I am
19:18attracted to let's split this up
19:22I am not sure whether to wear these together or these together
19:33those look very compatible
19:35does this look sexy though
19:37listen I don't know if speedos are very sexy
19:41right
19:42Chris and Simon are getting ready for their separate socials
19:46there's always a risk that exploring non-monogamy might jeopardize our relationship
19:50but I think it's important to know exactly who I am as a person
19:56so that's why I'm here and that's why I'm doing is because I feel like this is
20:00important for me to get more clarity on the question marks that I have in my head
20:05I think that's going to be fine
20:07good
20:13Simon will be attending an all girls pool party with residents Jen, Georgie, Holly and Gracie
20:19In the bedroom I'm pretty much love anything like I'm happy to explore anything like I'm always like a
20:26don't knock it to you try it type person
20:29Scream if you want to go to an orgy
20:31I love exploring I love trying new tricks
20:36a gay couple is that every woman's dream that I'm not gonna lie
20:40yeah
20:41oh lord
20:44but up in the bedroom Simon is starting to have some doubts
20:50I just feel pressure
20:52to take it to the bedroom and do something
20:55there's no there's no need to do that
20:58I'm anxious because I feel like I'm in the perfect scenario to explore
21:05oh fucking hell
21:07come on
21:09and that's essentially why I'm here is to discover my sexuality
21:15so there is pressure with that obviously
21:17I don't know
21:18yeah
21:19yeah
21:20I think I'm definitely in my head at the minute
21:25oh they're coming over
21:27he's coming over
21:28hello
21:29hello
21:30oh my god

21:38hello
21:39oh
21:40oh you're cold hun
21:41nice to see you again
21:42thank you
21:43I think just being alone with women pushes me outside my comfort zone
21:47I just don't think I'd be able to relax and be me in that moment
21:53meanwhile Chris is waiting to be collected for his afternoon social
21:58an all girls pyjama party with residents Emily, Kirsty and Mandy
22:04I'm feeling dreadfully nervous
22:06because I don't know who's going to be there
22:08but I do know that Simon isn't going to be there
22:11like Simon is sort of like a comfort blanket
22:14Naomi, who he kissed last night in the hot tub, is picking him up
22:22hello

24:43I'm not loving this
24:44retreat newcomers
24:46Charmaine and Jamie
24:47are getting ready for tonight's
24:48under the sea themed social
24:50do you think that's okay like that?
24:52yeah it's fine
24:54Charmaine is hoping to meet a couple
24:56to open up their relationship with
24:58but Jamie will have to overcome his confidence issues
25:03how are you feeling?
25:05yeah I'm excited
25:07I'm a little bit apprehensive of
25:09the social part and how you're going to be
25:12how you're going to do
25:13right now for
25:14anxious
25:16you are pacing
25:19are you nervous?
25:20extremely
25:21I'm hoping that we go into this evening together
25:24and that Jamie will feel confident enough to sort of go off separately
25:28and I really hope that it brings him out of himself a little bit more
25:32I think it's gonna do both of us the world of good but I think especially it's gonna
25:36do you good
25:37I'm a bit worried because I feel like my self confidence can sort of hold Charmaine back
25:46it puts a bit of a burden on her in social situations
25:49you ready for this?
25:50you ready for this?
25:51love you
25:52love you
25:58down at the social the residents are already turning up the heat
26:03this whole experience is obviously completely new to us alien to us and I think it's a very vulnerable situation to put yourself in
26:17this is a big step I don't feel like your relationship is ever going to be the same once you've opened up potentially that could damage our marriage
26:28of course I have worries about how it might affect me in Charmaine because it's not something you can undo
26:37once it's done it's done
26:52how are you feeling are you okay?
26:53I'm like I've got butterflies I'm feeling a bit like giddy
26:56it's just excitement
26:58oh my goodness the green is gorgeous
27:01Simon and the girls have moved the party up to the bedroom in the hope that it may lead to Simon having his first sexual experience with a woman
27:10how do you feel when you're making the lighting a little bit more?
27:14whatever you feel
27:16I have never had sex with a woman I don't know what I'm doing
27:23what's your buttons?
27:24I think I tend to feel most comfortable probably like laying back and letting stuff
27:31can I request for you to like lie down then?
27:33oh hello
27:39don't lie down then
27:41I even know how you feel it
27:43can I just be racking
27:44Right now, I'm feeling terrified because I don't know what I'm doing.
28:08I know that I want to have fun, and I know that I want it to be a positive experience.
28:14But I... I am anxious.
28:21Oh, fuck.
28:29Just want a little drink of water? Yeah, just a minute.
28:33But things aren't going quite as planned.
28:36What I'm going to think, I'm just going to say, like, I'm conscious that I'm not hard.
28:39I should be a bit of stage fright. Part of it's also, like, there's a lot going on.
28:48I'm just, like, processing, like, everything at once.
28:49I'm just like, this is something very new for me.
28:52When am I going to get my nails, sir?
29:00This is good nail polish. It's dry really quick.
29:02Just down the hall, Chris is fully immersed in his all-girl experience.
29:07Yeah, I think you're good.
29:08But his cautious approach is hindering things from progressing to the physical.
29:13Best case scenario would be to just, like, maybe have some fun in the bedroom.
29:18Are you going to get in your bubble bath?
29:19I'm going to have to pluck up the courage at some point.
29:21But, like, Simon's always been more sexually confident.
29:25When are my nails and my face mask? How about that? What do we do with that?
29:28Take it over. Oh, you look like a new man.
29:31Blimey. Right.
29:34Don't worry, we're going to be there to help you.
29:37Are you hanging up your clothes?
29:40No.
29:42It's a new shirt.
29:44Oh, how's that?
29:45I've seen stories.
29:47Whoa.
29:48Is it nice?
29:49Oh, it's lovely.
29:50This is a lovely temperature.
29:51It felt nice being in the bath with Naomi.
29:53It was more intimate, certainly, than the hot tub.
29:55So, we are going to have an early night.
30:01Chris is definitely very cute,
30:04but just wasn't really giving me the energy.
30:07I know he's nervous, obviously, that's a given.
30:10We'll miss you.
30:11So, me and the girls thought it would be a nice idea
30:15to leave Naomi and Chris.
30:18I mean, I think there's definitely some sort of spark between them.
30:22It was nice having the other girls here,
30:24but I think, like, it's...
30:26I felt like I was, like, constantly looking around the room,
30:29like, trying to make sure I'm, like, giving everyone equal attention.
30:32It's a lot to manage, yeah.
30:33I think Chris is a wonderful, wonderful man,
30:36and he's just someone that really intrigues me
30:38to get to know him a bit deeper.
30:40How are you finding this?
30:42Are you more relaxed now?
30:43You look very relaxed.
30:44I feel, I mean, having a lovely bath with a lovely lady.
30:48Naomi's a really interesting person,
30:50and she's very attractive as well.
30:53Yeah, I'd like to kiss Naomi.
30:55It's just nice, like, having just one person to focus on.
30:59That's it.
30:59Yeah.
30:59That's good.
31:03Oh, my God.
31:06Is there anything in particular in your life?
31:08Meanwhile, Simon and the girls' afternoon is progressing,
31:12despite his slight technical glitch.
31:14I think anything on my face would be great.
31:16Oh, my God.
31:17I think anything on my face.
31:18Having fun with a woman's vagina
31:23is very different to anything that I've experienced before.
31:27I don't exactly know what I'm doing,
31:30and that terrifies me.
31:33Oh, my God.
31:38I didn't really focus too much on...
31:41I was having issues with, like, getting an erection.
31:43Oh, fuck, yes.
31:45Oh, shit.
31:46I think I got a lot more pleasure
31:48out of making the other girls feel pleasure.
31:52Oh, my God.
31:53Fuck.
31:54I was actually very surprised
31:56that when Simon gave me oral,
31:59he was exceptional.
32:00Yes.
32:03He was exceptional.
32:04Yeah.
32:10Apparently, I can pleasure a woman.
32:12Jen gave me all of the signs
32:14that I definitely made her feel a certain kind of way.
32:17Fuck, I just came to hold in your tongue.
32:20That's impressive.
32:22Wow.
32:23I was having so much fun,
32:24and the connection was so good,
32:26so I hadn't thought about
32:28what Chris might be up to.
32:29You're so funny.
32:31Oh, my God.
32:34Grab this.
32:35Yeah.
32:35Your rabbit's going to go up the hole.
32:37Yes, yes, yes, yes.
32:39I love that.
32:40You're it.
32:41You've got it.
32:42I'm so proud of you.
32:44Yeah, it's a safe one.
32:45A handcuff knot.
32:46That's fantastic.
32:47That's your introduction to knots and bondage.
32:50I'm sure your old start needle will be very good.
32:52My relationship with Chris is definitely somewhere
32:56between romantic and friendship.
32:58Because we shared a kiss,
33:01I think naturally it had more of that romantic element to it.
33:05Despite not going there today,
33:07this has been wonderful.
33:08This has been so nice.
33:08I think I would have kissed Naomi,
33:10but I think what I've found is that
33:12I just do need a bit more time
33:13to do those sorts of things.
33:15I hope you have a lovely, lovely evening,
33:17and I'll see you at some point.
33:18Thank you so much.
33:19All right.
33:19Ta-ra.
33:21Like, I don't feel like I made
33:22much more significant progress
33:24in my own story.
33:28He's not here.
33:32He's not in the room.
33:33Once I came out to the room and found he wasn't there,
33:35I was thinking about where he may be.
33:38I feel jealous that he's probably doing something sexual
33:42and I would like to be there to see it.
33:52Charmaine and Jamie have just arrived at their first social
33:56in the hope that they will find a couple
33:58to join them in the bedroom.
34:00Hello.
34:01How are you doing?
34:03To kick-start their evening,
34:06they make a beeline for engaged couple
34:08Lily and Joe.
34:09How's it been, settling in?
34:11So, I imagine it's been quite intense.
34:12It's been intense.
34:14Yeah.
34:14It's very fun.
34:15Yeah, you both look great.
34:16Your dress as well is stunning.
34:18The velvet suit.
34:19I've got velvet trousers on.
34:21Oh, yeah.
34:22I'm a little bit overdressed.
34:23Oh, no.
34:25It was very clear that they were nervous.
34:28The nerves really shone through.
34:29And what do you do for work?
34:32I'm just at home with the kids and we've got three boys.
34:36Have you?
34:36Oh, really?
34:37Handful.
34:38So, what do you do for work, Jamie?
34:39I do scaffolding.
34:40I don't know if it's better to tell you.
34:41No way.
34:42I also scaffold.
34:44Oh, really?
34:44Scaffolding in Cambridgeshire, yeah.
34:46Oh, okay.
34:46Are you enjoying it?
34:47Yeah, I love it.
34:48Give it to our news, you'll hurt it.
34:50Yeah, that's what everyone says, but.
34:52We're both scaffolders, so we're both in the same industry.
34:54So, we definitely have some things in common, which is nice.
34:58It'd be good to spend some more time for them, I think.
35:00Yeah.
35:00We'd definitely see them again if they wanted to see us.
35:02Enjoy the rest of the evening.
35:03Do you feel ready to separate and speak to people, yeah?
35:14Yeah, I think so.
35:15Yeah, I think I'm more nervous than you now.
35:16Okay, love you.
35:20Yeah, I think I'm just going to jump in and allow myself to be surprised.
35:25Hiya.
35:26Good morning.
35:26I'm Jen.
35:27Hiya, I'm Char.
35:28Nice to meet you.
35:29Char?
35:29Char?
35:30Yeah, Charmaine.
35:30Char?
35:31Oh, okay, Char.
35:32How are you feeling?
35:34I'm nervous.
35:35I think, for both of us, that is a big thing to sort of separate from each other.
35:39I think we sort of lean on each other quite a lot for confidence.
35:42It's, yeah, going to be a bit of a challenge for us.
35:45Yeah.
35:45Hi.
35:47Come on, Jamie.
35:48How are you feeling, my darling?
35:49I'm good.
35:49We're not as scary as we look, I promise.
35:51I'm loving this velvet jacket, by the way.
35:53It's fabulous.
35:54Bit of an inspo pic thing.
35:56It's like, I'll order that.
35:57Yeah?
35:57Yeah.
35:58Jamie's nerves didn't necessarily put me off, to be honest.
36:01It's going to be a nerve-wracking situation for anybody to walk into, so I can completely
36:05understand that.
36:06Your partner looks absolutely beautiful tonight.
36:09I love the fact that you're matching in green.
36:11Yeah.
36:11It just, you look really good.
36:13Um...
36:14Monsieur, s'il vous plaît.
36:20I've definitely got a jealous streak to me, seeing Jamie flirting with somebody else.
36:26It's not something I've ever seen before.
36:29Personally, I think if it wasn't for Jen, I would be lost.
36:33In the social aspect.
36:34I'm the mouth.
36:35I think Jamie says the exact same.
36:37Are you the mouth?
36:38Yeah.
36:38You can take that now.
36:39I'd just like to finish your sentences.
36:41What can I say?
36:42She's too impatient.
36:43I am impatient.
36:44I'll start saying something and she'll be like...
36:45I think I can put on a confident act, but deep down I'm quite nervous in a social situation.
36:57Right now I'm feeling quite apprehensive.
37:01I'm also very aware of how Jamie might be feeling.
37:05It's lovely to speak to you.
37:06I'm going to go and see how Jamie's doing.
37:10Speak to you soon.
37:11So we've been trying to open up for about five years now.
37:16Okay.
37:17It's probably my confidence has held us back.
37:19Yeah.
37:20You seem pretty confident.
37:21Yeah, I was going to say.
37:23I think I needed to hear that.
37:24You're holding your own?
37:25Yeah, you're doing fine.
37:27You okay?
37:27Hiya.
37:28Jamie, do you want to go for it?
37:35I want to step out.
37:36Sorry?
37:37I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed.
37:39It's like a little broke.
37:40It's a situation, yeah.
37:41I just feel overwhelmed.
37:51It's just a bit much for me, like, the whole situation.
37:55We're not obligated to anything.
37:56This is our journey.
37:58I'm just uncomfortable.
38:01Where do we go from here?
38:02I don't know.
38:05The decision's yours from now.
38:06I don't know if I'm going to be able to hold myself together now.
38:09I really don't want to do it.
38:12I just want to buy him.
38:12After having very different sexual experiences,
38:28Simon is waiting for Chris in the cocktail bar.
38:30I'm feeling a little bit apprehensive about telling Chris about what's happened
38:34because I didn't expect it to go this far
38:37and it's such a big step in our relationship
38:41opening up with women as well.
38:45Let's do it.
38:50There he is.
38:54As soon as he walked in, I was like, we've had very different days.
38:57You okay? You look so cute.
39:00Oh, it's really good to see you. Are you okay?
39:06Yeah, good.
39:09You've been gone for so long. You went before me.
39:11What have you been doing?
39:13So, go on.
39:15I went down to the red room.
39:18It was really hot.
39:19I was very much just enjoying myself.
39:23Jen was like,
39:25do you want to eat my pussy?
39:26Wow. Just right out there.
39:28It was getting you going?
39:29Well, so this is the thing is
39:31I don't know if it was because of like a bit of stage fright
39:35but I didn't get hard and I didn't come
39:38but like in the moment I was like, I loved that.
39:41Like you can feel you enjoy that up here.
39:43It doesn't matter how you feel down there.
39:44That.
39:45Yeah.
39:46The exploration is why I came here
39:47and like the sexual exploration I had today
39:49is exactly what I was looking for.
39:51I just don't care that I struggled with getting an erection.
39:57So, how are you feeling?
40:00I am jealous that I wasn't there to see it.
40:04The way I frame the jealous,
40:05like a part of me wants to have been there
40:07to like, to have seen it happen.
40:09It's like missing a big event.
40:11That's the only sort of jealousy I feel.
40:13Are you doing okay?
40:14Yeah.
40:15You've overcome some pretty big like steps today.
40:19Yeah.
40:19So nice to like hear you gushing about it and...
40:24Oh, that's disgusting.
40:28It would have been nice for me
40:29to be able to have my own sexual experience
40:31but I know that I'm not the type of person
40:33who would have been able to do what Simon did.
40:36So, how on earth are you?
40:40So, I've had a little pamper day.
40:42You had a little pamper day.
40:43So, they gave me a face mask.
40:46Your skin is glowing.
40:47I am. I'm radiant.
40:48You are.
40:49And then I hopped in the bath.
40:51Oh.
40:52And then Naomi jumped in the bath with me as well.
40:55And that was basically it.
40:56Nothing really progressed from there.
40:58I'm just obviously happy that like
41:01at the end of the day, still you and me.
41:03Yeah.
41:04Shall we go to the room?
41:05Come on, let's do it.
41:09I feel fantastic after telling Chris
41:11about my day
41:12because it just reaffirms everything
41:14that I already feel fantastic about
41:16in my relationship with Chris.
41:17Oh.
41:19Well, well.
41:20We have amazing communication.
41:23We're super honest with each other
41:24and that's the foundation of our relationship
41:26and it will always be that way.
41:27Do you think you feel like
41:28more sure in your mind
41:30about how you feel about women?
41:31I feel more sure.
41:33I feel absolutely sure
41:35that I can have sexual experiences with women
41:38and for it to be fun
41:40and pleasurable and enjoyable.
41:42Excellent.
41:43I feel absolutely great.
41:45Yeah.
41:45Yeah.
41:48I would love to come.
41:53Fucking come.
41:53Fucking come.
41:54Oh.
41:55I just don't want to do it.
42:08Charmaine may have been the one
42:10who wanted to open up
42:11but now she's struggling
42:13leaving husband Jamie
42:14unsure of what to do next.
42:17What are you going to do?
42:18Well, I don't want to do it.
42:20But you're not comfortable with.
42:22I just felt awkward
42:23looking back in now.
42:24It's fine.
42:27I'll support any decision in your mind.
42:30I think that was a lot harder
42:31than I sort of anticipated.
42:39Yeah, I think I just got a little bit overwhelmed.
42:41I noticed that Char and Jamie
42:43had gone outside
42:44and they were gone for quite a while
42:46so I popped out to check out they were.
42:48I'm going to cry again.
42:49Don't cry, don't cry.
42:50Sorry.
42:51Deep breaths.
42:51You're doing great.
42:52You're doing great.
42:53Everyone thinks you're amazing.
42:54Deep breaths.
42:56Oh, it's just overwhelming.
43:00You OK now?
43:01Yeah.
43:02We would love to chat to you though
43:04so if you feel like you can come back in
43:05just remember why you came here
43:07and what you wanted to achieve out of tonight.
43:09I think we will come back in.
43:10I just need to get myself together.
43:12Yeah?
43:13Jen came out
43:14and sort of had a word with us
43:15and reassured us
43:16and yeah, I think that was a big help for me
43:19to sort of snap out of it a little bit
43:21and get out of my head.
43:23Should we go with him?
43:23Yeah.
43:24Come on then.
43:25Come with me.
43:27Oh my God, it's so warm in here now.
43:28So warm.
43:29Lovely.
43:30This is Jen's don't tell.
43:32This is Jamie.
43:33Hi, doing me.
43:33Nice to meet you.
43:33This is my partner, Mark.
43:34Yeah.
43:35Well, thank you for putting us at ease a little bit.
43:38Oh God, I'm glad you feel a little more at ease now.
43:41I think at one point I was ready to do a run at you.
43:43Yeah.
43:43But I feel like you're here for a reason.
43:45You're here for a reason.
43:46I would have been disappointed
43:47if we had actually full of time.
43:48You'd regret it for sure.
43:51I don't know if there is any vibes from them
43:54because I'm not feeling it.
43:56I'm not feeling them being flirty with me
43:58but I think they're gorgeous.
43:59And you're both hot as fuck as well.
44:01Like, you have nothing to be, like, conscious about.
44:04Own it.
44:06What do you like to talk about them?
44:08Is there anything you're really passionate about?
44:10It's like they're about books.
44:11That's how boring we can be.
44:12Oh, I love that you both read.
44:14That's what I'm a married couple.
44:16Are you not like me, though?
44:18When I'm reading, like, a spicy book,
44:19I text him and I'm like,
44:20listen, you're going to have to get home because...
44:23I am suffering it.
44:24Yeah, I'm like, you need to reenact the scene right now.
44:26Yes!
44:27Oh my God, that is super hard.
44:29I think the vibe we got of them was very chilled out and relaxed
44:33and I think that's what we need this evening.
44:36Yeah, hopefully we've read that right.
44:38We really appreciate your fitness days
44:39and I was wondering if you'd like to spend a bit more time in the hot tub.
44:42No pressure whatsoever.
44:45Would you like to spend some time in the hot tub?
44:47I definitely would, yeah, would you?
44:48I would like to spend some time in the hot tub.
44:50We both definitely fancy Jamie and Charmaine, yeah.
44:53I don't think they realise they're a hot couple.
44:56Let's go get in the hot tub and get these bloody heels off, shall we?
44:58Let's go.
45:01I think Jamie and Charmaine might be
45:05potentially the most nervous couple
45:08we've connected with in this way.
45:10I want them to have a really good experience,
45:12but I wish they weren't so nervous.
45:14Next time on Open House...
45:29My main concern is,
45:30is it something that should have stayed a fantasy?
45:33What are you feeling this evening, then?
45:34Do we want to...
45:36How are your feelings?
45:38What, tonight?
45:39Yeah.
45:39You're the boss.

45:42I don't feel like your relationship

45:52I'm interested.
45:53I'm definitely interested.
45:54Yeah, I'm interested, yeah.
45:55See you soon.
45:56If it goes wrong,
45:57it might put us off forever.
45:59Yeah, it's just a bit scary what might happen.
46:00I'm interested in talk...
