After the show it was time for some games to demonstrate how good we were as couples. For each game a number was drawn out of a box and the respective couple was brought out on stage to undergo rigorous questioning about each other, or to perform some embarrassing physical act, the peak being actually kissing on stage in front of everyone else. That couple were dragged out on stage amid applause – all smiles until they discovered their fate. The man recovered quickly, and turning to his wife, planted a kiss on her lips and held it for a few seconds. She was not so comfortable though, and I vividly recall a woman with arms locked in rigor mortis, fingers splayed, and wearing an expression of horror. As soon it was over, she shuffled back to their table to the chorus of cheers from us, their judges.
