What was suspicious was that when she was stopped for questioning, the guy just tried to walk by, leaving her, although he said they were traveling together. You don't leave someone you're traveling with when they're being questioned.
And the rucksack that happened to have the drugs was hidden under the exam table hoping they would overlook it during the search. Lol. They’re guilty AF. Lol😂
I love how the strongest language the man can come up with to curse the customs officer is, 'You're cheeky.' Good thing he didn't escalate to, 'you are being very naughty.'

They are super cute. What I don't get is why that guy risked so much for bringing in such a tiny amount of cocaine? Like, okay, I don't know anything about cocaine, but it seems to me that that was just for personal use, he wasn't selling it or anything. So why take the risk?? Not that I'm saying it's okay to use it. It's not. But, like, I get why smugglers and dealers risk getting caught, it's cause they're gonna make a bunch of money. But that guy, he wasn't gonna make money, seems like it was just a bit for his personal use, so.... ....so why take that risk? He had everything to lose, and nothing to gain.
If someone takes your personal belongings from you in an airport, only to return them, you go straight to the nearest police or security officer and report it! You don't just think "that was odd, and my bag feels heavier - probably nothing".

Since young, my parents have always made sure to remind us not to travel with bags or carry-ons that are open or easy to open. I remember them insisting never ever get careless and always pay attention to our surroundings or people coming close to us.
It's a good tactic to plant it on people. Then follow them when they get off the plane. Demand the goods, "or else". Most will give it up. After that, police don't have anything to go by.

Yes, it's very different going through customs and immigration in the US vs the UK, and the east coast of the USA is the worst - especially New York and New Jersey. The officers there are generally extremely rude and impatient and try to intimidate people, and not just ones they suspect might be carrying drugs, even in the way they direct everybody on which lines to join.
@@timhick6 No man, I've traveled all over the world and in terms of how they treat you USA customs and immigration officers are the worst I've come across.
The woman was like, "I didn't do anything" Yeah! She's correct! Her husband did though and he kept trying to walk around her, each time they were stopped. Unfortunately, you are "guilty" by association.
Dude they said clear as day she is a former heroin addict, the way she was moving plus declared she needed her "medication" after the found the coke aka her "medication" 🤣
Lol! You've got to hand it to these Brits, they're so polite! "I'm arresting you for importation of cocaine please come with me" in the US it's a different story..."GET ON THE FLOOR! WOMP!" 🤣
I saw a video where a cop shot a undercover cop when said cop saw the undercover cops gun, he Screamed “ Gun!! “ and shot the undercover cop even tho the undercover cop was handcuffed in the back of a car, fortunately the undercover guy survived, and he sued the city for getting shot, he won the lawsuit, just American cop things
Serious lawyer question. When UK law enforcement keeps saying, "It may harm your defense if you don't answer my questions...", does that mean that guilt can be inferred from silence in the UK?
probably more lenient, an incentive for you if you cooperate, saves tax dollars to get you sorted and out of the court system then into prison or out of their hair. Considering this is a purely socialist system that's paid with tax dollars, these small time saving implements probably matter more than in a business driven environment like in the USA, where you can just pass on the buck down the line in the name of business.
Even in the U.S. an accused defendant who waits for months or years before bringing forth an alibi or "innocent explanation" that he knew about and could very easily have presented to investigators much earlier will have made the last-minute story seem a bit like a desperate lie to a reasonable judge or jury, thus harming the defendant's defense. The UK explains this in their version of our Miranda warning.
@@johnstuartsmith Sure. Got no problem with that. But what of the defendant that actually invokes right to remain silent (i.e., silent till the end)? A defendant that invokes his right to silence and then changes his mind is one thing, a defendant who actually listens to his lawyer and actually understands the right to remain silent is another.
@@TeamOT as example, if asked “Is this your bag?” and you decide to remain silent, you pretty much lose any credibility in later claiming it was not. Remaining silent does not make sense when exculpatory information could be given then and there.
It's ridiculous for them to even comment on people seeming nervous and agitated, most people will feel nervous or agitated when stopped for additional screening by authorities. No matter how pleasant or casual the officer tries to make the interaction you know they didn't stop you because they're trying to make new friends!
Happened to a Swedish journalist a couple of years ago (i.e. drugs placed in his checked-in suitcase). He was released after one day in jail. The airlined offered 20 GBP in compensation. After he called them and told them that he was a journalist and was going to write about this experience, he was all of a sudden offered 2000 GBP.
These pr ogrammes are deeply satisfying and reassuring on many levels . The damage and destruction of lives on so many levels by these substances is appalling
If the governments in every country’s in the world would not play an important roll in those drugs...we can win the war on drugs. Easy like Portugal did it...simple. We can’t talk about freedom or free people until it is a 1000 or more things you can get arrested for! Our - Governments only job is to invent more laws to rob the people!
Me at the airport noticing a customers officer and having a quick question: "Hey do you have the time"? Customs officer: "The time is 12:11AM, and I am arresting you on suspicion o--oops... sorry, force of habit!"
I don’t think it’s greed as much as it’s desperation! Everyone knows it’s against the law yet they still try knowing they may end up in prison! And sometimes cartels will find out everything about you and your family and threaten their death if you don’t smuggle for them! Idk about the UK but it happens a lot here in the states!
Sort of agree. Wouldn’t ruin someone’s life over a first smuggling, but the amount of crime, broken families, extra hospital bills, jail from theft to support habits, etc. from drugs is huge - it is not a “victimless” crime. The smugglers don’t care if the drugs they carry cost others their lives.
To the OP: Well, not entirely true. His 'life' in Thailand is, more than likely, over. Not sure how he is going to answer the local immigration and customs questionnaire where it asks if you've ever been arrested. Of course the follow-up to a 'yes' response is, on what charge? Unlike the UK, in Thailand, the possession of any quantity (no matter how small) of a Category II drug (which includes cocaine) will earn the offender a 5 million baht fine (over GBP100k) and anywhere from 1 year to life in the Bangkok Hilton. If the smuggler is permitted back into The Kingdom he will be a 'person of interest' and will be under surveillance by the RTP (Royal Thai Police).
@@maifantasia3650 do they ask upon entry? Do u need an ACRO for Thailand. Or as he has clearly been residing in Thailand for a while may he just not get his police clearance from the Thai police where he will have no record. I hope for the latter. Also. Thankfully blanked his face for the latter too.
@@112chapters3 - it is a condition of entry, for most countries, to declare any arrests and the reason, even if the person was acquitted. Providing false information can result in (one, or all) fines, gaol, deportation and blacklisting.
These customs officers are out of control. Everyone KNOWS that huge packages of drugs do occasionally jump into people’s bags. Unbeknownst to the traveler.
I have a good friend who travels all over. She always short cuts lengthy exams by requesting the body scan and treats the customs officials with kindness and humor. The result is a fast process time and a fun experience. "Look ! You can see the penny I swallowed at two years of age!" Attitude is everything!
If you pack your backpack and it ways 300 grams and somene at the airport in st Lucia takes your belonings and when you get it back that backpack suddenly weighs 3,5 kilograms,you should be able to notice the difference in weight...So he plays a dumb smugler
1. 'Did you pack the bags yourselves?' Always followed immediately by: 2.'So you're aware of the contents of the bags?' As though the two propositions are naturally, automatically equivalent. They're not, and they know they're not, and this is a trap. Packing your bags, and being aware of what's in them hours later, after they've been out of your possession for hours and handled by complete strangers, are not the same things at all. If you automatically and carelessly answer 'yes' to the second question, and then they find bad things in your bags, you have already compromised your position by acknowledging, 'for the record', that 'you knew it was there'. This is exactly the game they're playing, and exactly why. But heaven help you if you start to equivocate on the second question (as you should); get ready to be 'taught a lesson!' It's not any accident that they pair these questions so directly, so smoothly, always (even implying that they're equivalent propositions by linking them together with '...so...'), and I don't know why they're even allowed to do it. They shouldn't be. It's sheer entrapment.
Fortunately this was before fent hit the scene majorly as it is today, this was roughly filmed in 2008-2010 roughly. So before any acknowledgment was made

Nearly 22 years ago I traveld on a flight from Zurich to Genoa (Italy) and was detained at the airport for a long while. I originally had a ticket to fly Zurich to Florence but had to change it to Genoa since I was done with work in Zurich a day earlier than expected. And on that particular day the Florence flight was sold out or cancelled. So I took a flight to Genoa and planned to take a train to Pisa and then to Florence. The officers in Genoa thought is was unusual for an Indian national to land in Genoa from Zurich. They first took nearly 1.5 hours to clear my immigration. I got very restless and a bit aggressive. Then they let me go but detained me at the customs and seached my luggage thoroughly. They found nothing and the office told me I can repack my stuff. Then the officer told his boss that he let me go but came back with him. The senior officer searched again and took out all my stuff and did a micro search. Finally he said I could go. But I asked him to repack my stuff. He was shocked. He said he wouldn't do it. I told him once I repacked but then they couldn't do it as many times as they wish. The officers were very surprised but the senior asked his junior to repack. After coming out of the airport I remained just outside the customs office for nearly half an hour making phone calls from an airport phone. The guys were looking at me from inside and talking something. The junior customs officer was repacking I asked him why I was being treated like this. He said the immigration thought it was strange that I took Genoa as port of entry instead of Rome or Florence or Milan.
If they just stopped with this dumb drug prohibition half of the customs and airport security work would simply cease to exist. We could invest the money in better help and prevention work for addicts.
Feel stricken and sick for addicts instead. Smugglers don't give a damn what happens to drug users and the more coke and heroin that gets through to the market, the cheaper the stuff becomes, so more people can buy dangerous drugs than before.
How does it matter anyway? I love how they invaded his privacy by going through his private DVDs for absolutely no reason. Chef or not, anyone can have drugs on them. They should just do their jobs and not act like the East German secret police, looking into how the guy lives his life which is none of their damn business.
Customs never sets people up... but when I had expensive bottles of whiskey stolen on three occasions.. I lost my faith in that. Fortunately, the second and third time were expensive bottles but filled with urine and other liquid saturated cheap booze.
Again, scratching my head on British law. Officer said, you two are arrested. No handcuff and they still get to touch their belongings by carrying their bags and following the officer. WTF?
I guess thats the type of stuff that happens when you don't have a populace prone to resisting and assaulting law enforcement? Or maybe since they are already in a controlled environment with cameras everywhere and additional officers nearby, there is less risk to them.
Well, 1,500 kilos of cocaine has a street value of about eighty million dollars straight up (almost 60 million pounds). That's just monetary value; the purpose of combating drugs like cocaine goes beyond the effects to the economy. People will die / be harmed / become addicted from use. Between that, and the eighty million a year, I'd say it's worth it. The cost to society from turning a blind eye to a ton-and-a-half of cocaine is too high. Not to mention that the ton-and-a-half would become many hundreds of tons, once the dealers knew that customs didn't care.
Few yrs ago leaving jamaica i was stoped in kingston out of my 5 family members,they said i fit the description which was pretty female dressed really well.I told them my mom check everything we dnt take things from anyone but my mom,sister,aunt i said those two little boys are 2 reason i would never be into smuggling drugs we could have died during childbirth .So nothing could make me never see them again no amount of money.
The grammar depends on the country. In the US, a couple is a single unit so claims is correct. The couple claims, they have been set up. This is a UK program and In the UK, the couple is considered as multiple people in a group. So “they” claim that they have been set up. Also correct

@@timhick6 No man, I've traveled all over the world and in terms of how they treat you USA customs and immigration officers are the worst I've come across.
The woman was like, "I didn't do anything" Yeah! She's correct! Her husband did though and he kept trying to walk around her, each time they were stopped. Unfortunately, you are "guilty" by association.

@@paulj.stavrou4332 😂
You saw the tracks on her arms? But a good lawyer can get her off if the husband takes the full. Just say its his and she didn't know.
Dude they said clear as day she is a former heroin addict, the way she was moving plus declared she needed her "medication" after the found the coke aka her "medication" 🤣
You can’t be for real, she has tweaker sores all over her arms. She 100% is getting paid to do it also.
Lol! You've got to hand it to these Brits, they're so polite! "I'm arresting you for importation of cocaine please come with me" in the US it's a different story..."GET ON THE FLOOR! WOMP!" 🤣
so true, welcome to England, police are very nice here and still treat you with respect and as a human being
You forgot guns drawn
"Oops shot ya by mistake ..."
I saw a video where a cop shot a undercover cop when said cop saw the undercover cops gun, he Screamed “ Gun!! “ and shot the undercover cop even tho the undercover cop was handcuffed in the back of a car, fortunately the undercover guy survived, and he sued the city for getting shot, he won the lawsuit, just American cop things

This comment is spot on

Try throwing that many F bombs in an American airport today and you can smell what's on the floor and maybe never fly again.
And that is the problem with the USA right now
haha the first couple wasn't even trying to hide the block of cocaine
just throw it in the backpack "well that seems about right" xD
Lol. Proves the likelihood that both are addicts, with ZERO common sense.
Serious lawyer question. When UK law enforcement keeps saying, "It may harm your defense if you don't answer my questions...", does that mean that guilt can be inferred from silence in the UK?
probably more lenient, an incentive for you if you cooperate, saves tax dollars to get you sorted and out of the court system then into prison or out of their hair. Considering this is a purely socialist system that's paid with tax dollars, these small time saving implements probably matter more than in a business driven environment like in the USA, where you can just pass on the buck down the line in the name of business.
Even in the U.S. an accused defendant who waits for months or years before bringing forth an alibi or "innocent explanation" that he knew about and could very easily have presented to investigators much earlier will have made the last-minute story seem a bit like a desperate lie to a reasonable judge or jury, thus harming the defendant's defense. The UK explains this in their version of our Miranda warning.
@@johnstuartsmith Sure. Got no problem with that. But what of the defendant that actually invokes right to remain silent (i.e., silent till the end)? A defendant that invokes his right to silence and then changes his mind is one thing, a defendant who actually listens to his lawyer and actually understands the right to remain silent is another.
@@TeamOT as example, if asked “Is this your bag?” and you decide to remain silent, you pretty much lose any credibility in later claiming it was not. Remaining silent does not make sense when exculpatory information could be given then and there.
They can actually use your lack of willingness to consent to a search as "probable cause" to conduct a search without your consent in Britain.
She is covered in scabs not a good sign, then the boyfriend has all that in his bag. She is not as innocent as she claims
I was thinking the exact same thing. Those scabs make her look like a user plus she is fidgety.

@@debrakleid5752 they acknowledged to being a former heroine addict and are being denied medication and could well be going into withdrawal from that
How can you tell her face is blurred out?
Really? I thought the heroin addicted escort was innocent in all this.
Thanks for clearing that up.
Every smuggler will always say they are innocent at first ….😂😂😂
In prison they are innocent too 😂
So does every single cop, pedo, and embezzler...
Interesting that all these criminal types have fuzzy faces. Is it genetic?

It's ridiculous for them to even comment on people seeming nervous and agitated, most people will feel nervous or agitated when stopped for additional screening by authorities. No matter how pleasant or casual the officer tries to make the interaction you know they didn't stop you because they're trying to make new friends!
no they don't unless they are tarded
Lol
So?
BS lol if you ain’t guilty you ain’t gonna be nervous cuz you will have enough brain to understand that it’s their job
Love watching these, Great job👏
Happened to a Swedish journalist a couple of years ago (i.e. drugs placed in his checked-in suitcase). He was released after one day in jail. The airlined offered 20 GBP in compensation. After he called them and told them that he was a journalist and was going to write about this experience, he was all of a sudden offered 2000 GBP.
Seeing the wounds on her arms, the lady wasn’t a former heroine addict.
Was thinking the same thing.
@@DS-ky9dl Me too. Lots of fresh spots and scabs.
Maybe she picks. I do that too and have never touched any drugs.
@@tabby73 Or maybe, since she was traveling with a man who was carrying a large amount of cocaine, she's not a former addict but a current one.
@@hebneh quite possible
“Transferred to the custody suite”! 😂😂😂😂
“are they drugs?” 🤣
These pr ogrammes are deeply satisfying and reassuring on many levels . The damage and destruction of lives on so many levels by these substances is appalling
Yet the war on drugs cannot be won.
Nobody forces anyone to consume these substances
If the governments in every country’s in the world would not play an important roll in those drugs...we can win the war on drugs. Easy like Portugal did it...simple. We can’t talk about freedom or free people until it is a 1000 or more things you can get arrested for! Our - Governments only job is to invent more laws to rob the people!
I never want to hear a custom officer tell me the time
Me at the airport noticing a customers officer and having a quick question: "Hey do you have the time"?
Customs officer: "The time is 12:11AM, and I am arresting you on suspicion o--oops... sorry, force of habit!"
Its mind blowing that people still try to smuggle with all the checks happening...greed
Drug supply is as big as ever but almost all of it comes in via cargo. The fact that drug prices are low tells you all you need to know.
Because many pass through undetected. Few get caught
@@infiltr80r Low, coke is over £100 a gram these days!!!! lol
greed and desperation - junkies
I don’t think it’s greed as much as it’s desperation! Everyone knows it’s against the law yet they still try knowing they may end up in prison! And sometimes cartels will find out everything about you and your family and threaten their death if you don’t smuggle for them! Idk about the UK but it happens a lot here in the states!
You singled us out! Yes, well probably because a dog sniffed your bag on the belt behind the baggage hall.
Nice to hear guy with 2 grams got conditional. No point for ruining lives for petty crimes like that
I just got caught with 2grams..
You don't know how much he may have smuggled before.
Sort of agree. Wouldn’t ruin someone’s life over a first smuggling, but the amount of crime, broken families, extra hospital bills, jail from theft to support habits, etc. from drugs is huge - it is not a “victimless” crime. The smugglers don’t care if the drugs they carry cost others their lives.
To the OP: Well, not entirely true. His 'life' in Thailand is, more than likely, over. Not sure how he is going to answer the local immigration and customs questionnaire where it asks if you've ever been arrested. Of course the follow-up to a 'yes' response is, on what charge?
Unlike the UK, in Thailand, the possession of any quantity (no matter how small) of a Category II drug (which includes cocaine) will earn the offender a 5 million baht fine (over GBP100k) and anywhere from 1 year to life in the Bangkok Hilton. If the smuggler is permitted back into The Kingdom he will be a 'person of interest' and will be under surveillance by the RTP (Royal Thai Police).
@@maifantasia3650 do they ask upon entry? Do u need an ACRO for Thailand. Or as he has clearly been residing in Thailand for a while may he just not get his police clearance from the Thai police where he will have no record. I hope for the latter.
Also. Thankfully blanked his face for the latter too.
@@112chapters3 - it is a condition of entry, for most countries, to declare any arrests and the reason, even if the person was acquitted. Providing false information can result in (one, or all) fines, gaol, deportation and blacklisting.
These customs officers are out of control.
Everyone KNOWS that huge packages of drugs do occasionally jump into people’s bags. Unbeknownst to the traveler.
Well risking your freedom by smuggling is OK? And protecting your country is not OK?
@@carolsummers8734 You realize my comment is OBVIOUSLY sarcastic.. Right?
They are super nice when arresting people. Also how come I've never randomly found a large amount of drugs in my luggage?
Gotta give the guy credit, for his act. Plead ignorance, haha.😂
I have a good friend who travels all over. She always short cuts lengthy exams by requesting the body scan and treats the customs officials with kindness and humor. The result is a fast process time and a fun experience. "Look ! You can see the penny I swallowed at two years of age!" Attitude is everything!
If you pack your backpack and it ways 300 grams and somene at the airport in st Lucia takes your belonings and when you get it back that backpack suddenly weighs 3,5 kilograms,you should be able to notice the difference in weight...So he plays a dumb smugler

"Yes, we packed the bags ourselves!"......."WHAT?? 3 kilos of cocaine, you say? It's a good thing you found that, officer! It's very dangerous!"
And its deep in my bag? Umder all my belongings?? Gosh someone must have put it there 🤡🤡
Hhahaa, I know! It's the old 'the dog ate my homework' kind of excuse.
1. 'Did you pack the bags yourselves?'
Always followed immediately by:
2.'So you're aware of the contents of the bags?'
As though the two propositions are naturally, automatically equivalent.
They're not, and they know they're not, and this is a trap.
Packing your bags, and being aware of what's in them hours later, after they've been out of your possession for hours and handled by complete strangers, are not the same things at all.
If you automatically and carelessly answer 'yes' to the second question, and then they find bad things in your bags, you have already compromised your position by acknowledging, 'for the record', that 'you knew it was there'. This is exactly the game they're playing, and exactly why.
But heaven help you if you start to equivocate on the second question (as you should); get ready to be 'taught a lesson!'
It's not any accident that they pair these questions so directly, so smoothly, always (even implying that they're equivalent propositions by linking them together with '...so...'), and I don't know why they're even allowed to do it.
They shouldn't be. It's sheer entrapment.
This a manifesto, much?
Good comment. Have you personally been through such an experience? Not trying to be a smart a@$, just curious that's all.
If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime!

Nearly 22 years ago I traveld on a flight from Zurich to Genoa (Italy) and was detained at the airport for a long while.
I originally had a ticket to fly Zurich to Florence but had to change it to Genoa since I was done with work in Zurich a day earlier than expected.
And on that particular day the Florence flight was sold out or cancelled.
So I took a flight to Genoa and planned to take a train to Pisa and then to Florence.
The officers in Genoa thought is was unusual for an Indian national to land in Genoa from Zurich.
They first took nearly 1.5 hours to clear my immigration.
I got very restless and a bit aggressive.
Then they let me go but detained me at the customs and seached my luggage thoroughly.
They found nothing and the office told me I can repack my stuff. Then the officer told his boss that he let me go but came back with him.
The senior officer searched again and took out all my stuff and did a micro search. Finally he said I could go.
But I asked him to repack my stuff. He was shocked. He said he wouldn't do it.
I told him once I repacked but then they couldn't do it as many times as they wish.
The officers were very surprised but the senior asked his junior to repack.
After coming out of the airport I remained just outside the customs office for nearly half an hour making phone calls from an airport phone.
The guys were looking at me from inside and talking something.
The junior customs officer was repacking I asked him why I was being treated like this.
He said the immigration thought it was strange that I took Genoa as port of entry instead of Rome or Florence or Milan.
Illegals are a big problem in Europe
If they just stopped with this dumb drug prohibition half of the customs and airport security work would simply cease to exist. We could invest the money in better help and prevention work for addicts.
Hahaha when the guy admitted to hiding cocaine in his underwear and the agents like mmm yup okay 😂 TIME FOR ARREST IS…
Seriously Tobacco !!!! Give me a break that's just TAX COLLECTING
I am, also addicted to crime programs. I can't help but feel stricken and sick for the smugglers
Feel stricken and sick for addicts instead. Smugglers don't give a damn what happens to drug users and the more coke and heroin that gets through to the market, the cheaper the stuff becomes, so more people can buy dangerous drugs than before.
I feel angry.
A couple coming in from BDA were arrested into LGA airport. They got 6 years.
Walking into an airport with your G Star t shirt on is begging to be caught lol

At least the dog was having fun 😁👍🏻
That's one reason I enjoy watching these programs - happy, excited dogs at work.

“They seem nervous.” Anyone will seem nervous if sorted out by police, or a sniffer dog. Never understand why that statement is made.

How does it matter anyway? I love how they invaded his privacy by going through his private DVDs for absolutely no reason. Chef or not, anyone can have drugs on them. They should just do their jobs and not act like the East German secret police, looking into how the guy lives his life which is none of their damn business.
"offices are working out the SCALE of the crime".... *zooms in on scale* ... cheeky narrator I like it

Again, scratching my head on British law. Officer said, you two are arrested. No handcuff and they still get to touch their belongings by carrying their bags and following the officer. WTF?
I guess thats the type of stuff that happens when you don't have a populace prone to resisting and assaulting law enforcement? Or maybe since they are already in a controlled environment with cameras everywhere and additional officers nearby, there is less risk to them.
This is normal in most of Europe
He didn't even shoot either of them.....strange
Don’t have millions of firearms like the US, the threat is much less, I notice when they do cuff it’s in the front.

Did he say that only 1500 kilos are found per year? Thats it, dude it cost way more to employ all these people to just find 1500 kilos
haha... that's because it's a free trade...shame
Well, 1,500 kilos of cocaine has a street value of about eighty million dollars straight up (almost 60 million pounds). That's just monetary value; the purpose of combating drugs like cocaine goes beyond the effects to the economy. People will die / be harmed / become addicted from use. Between that, and the eighty million a year, I'd say it's worth it. The cost to society from turning a blind eye to a ton-and-a-half of cocaine is too high. Not to mention that the ton-and-a-half would become many hundreds of tons, once the dealers knew that customs didn't care.

"Couple CLAIMS They Have Been Setup By Customs"... basic grammar, people!
The grammar depends on the country. In the US, a couple is a single unit so claims is correct. The couple claims, they have been set up. This is a UK program and In the UK, the couple is considered as multiple people in a group. So “they” claim that they have been set up. Also correct
