Back in September, Mediaweek spoke to host Natalie Gruzlewski about bringing the show to life.
She said: “The success comes from the casting process. The singles aren’t applying for the show so much as ‘swiping right’ for their Farmers on the casting website. They choose each other before going on the show.
