Key Facts

• Ofcom is investigating a complaint of unjust or unfair treatment from a cast member of "Married at First Sight UK", which was lodged by an individual who participated in the show.
• The investigation follows a BBC Panorama investigation in May that revealed rape allegations from two female cast members, which the men involved deny, and raised serious concerns that welfare procedures on the show have failed contributors, leaving them at risk of harm.
• Channel 4 has commissioned a review into contributor welfare on the show, which is due to be finished later this summer, but will only publish a summary of findings, rather than the full report.
• A cast member from the show was arrested on suspicion of rape following the Panorama programme, and the individual is not being named, nor is the alleged victim, as anyone who makes an allegation of rape is entitled to anonymity by law.
• Ofcom had previously considered a complaint from another cast member about their treatment on the show, but dismissed it as it found the broadcaster had no case to answer.
