Interesting how that started out as Romance Retreat, reportedly pitched by Davina McCall, but now seems to have evolved into My Mum, Your Dad - an ITV Studios Australia format that debuted in Australia last year.  It didn't do too well but has got a second series.

Feels like something that would be better weekly.

It was My Mum Your Dad all along. Davina pitched a similar sounding show, ITV told her they already had something like it in the works but offered her the presenting gig. The Romance Retreat was the cover name used to not give the twist away whilst filming (although how they plan on making that work if it gets a second series I don’t know).

I do agree it looks like a flop though and the trailers really aren’t selling it. There’s no drama in them at all, it really epitomises the trend of ITV massively sanitising its reality shows (for the worse).

Voiceover on the trailer describes it as a “two week event” and it’s 10 x 60 so does look like it’ll be Monday to Friday for a fortnight.
