| Summary |
Jane Caro is opening closet doors and diving under the sheets to discover the secrets of a long-lasting relationship. In this Compass series, guest presenter Jane Caro explores the secret to successful long-term relationships. In For Better For Worse, five couples lay bare their joys, challenges and heartaches; what makes a relationship work, what keeps people together, and what have they learned along the way? From tender beginnings these partnerships have withstood the test of time. Interviewed by Jane Caro, each couple shares the nitty-gritty of their relationship: how they met, their first impressions, dealing with the in-laws, navigating the tough times of illness and infidelity, and the chaos of having children, right through to the unglamorous division of domestic labour. Jane asks the big life questions: can sex survive longevity, and how will they cope when their partner dies first? This week we take a look at the time in a relationship when two individuals leave their family of origin and combine to make a new family, each brings a piece of their past with them, some bring more baggage than others. Our couples reflect on how they negotiated this tricky transition. PRODUCTION DETAILS: For Better or Worse is an ABC TV/Compass production. Presenter: Jane Caro, Producer: Kim Akhurst, Series Producer: Jessica Douglas-Henry, Commissioning Editor: Andrea Ulbrick |
