Married At First Sight Response 

Channel 4 has been warned by the culture secretary she is "not satisfied" with the broadcaster's response to the government following allegations of rape and sexual assault made by women who appeared on Married at First Sight UK. 

Last month, the show, known to many as MAFS UK, was plunged into crisis after BBC Panorama reported rape allegations from two female cast members - allegations the men involved have denied. 

Speaking in the House of Commons on Thursday, Lisa Nandy said she knew MPs would be "horrified and disgusted" by the claims, adding that she would be discussing the matter with Channel 4 "in the coming week". 

The broadcaster has pulled all episodes of MAFS UK from its streaming service, and has commissioned an external review of contributor welfare on the show. 

Channel 4 has said it only intends to publish "a summary of findings" from its review, rather than the full report.
