RDF Television has been commissioned to make the one-off special for Channel 4.

The show will see couples swap households for one week, as they live with families from an opposing side of the Brexit debate.

Wife Swap was first shown on Channel 4 in 2003 and since then has spanned the globe with various takes on the UK format.

Daniel Fromm, Executive Producer of RDF said: “With the Brexit debate dominated by politicians and journalists it will be fascinating to hear the voices of two ordinary families grappling with the issue.”

Emily Jones who has commissioned this special added:"The world has changed and recent events have brought political issues into the heart of every household. What better time to bring back this much loved format to explore Brexit and hear firsthand the conversations happening in every home”.
