Here's all you need to know about the series...



When is Three Wives, One Husband on TV?

The first episode of the series aired on March 23, and it finishes on Channel 4 tonight at 9.00pm with the fifth episode.

It will then be repeated on +1 services before making its way to their online demand service, 4OD.

What is Three Wives, One Husband about?

Three Wives, One Husband is a new documentary series filmed in a polygamous community of Fundamentalist Mormons.

The community lives in Rockland Ranch, which is situated deep in the Utah Desert, and will follow how they live their lives day-to-day.

Filming the documentary took a year, and executive producer Will Anderson and series producer Vicky Mitchell had to develop a close bond for an all access pass to lives inside the community.

They said: "All of the families were actually amazingly candid. The Morrisons in particular. I think it takes a lot of guts to open up the challenges in your personal life to the scrutiny of the outside world. It wasn't always easy for them and it's to their immense credit that they had the courage to do it.

"In terms of the rig cameras, there were certain parts of the houses that were off limits, like the bedrooms, the bathrooms. So while they were happy to talk about their intimate lives, obviously they wanted that to remain off camera."

What is Mormonism and what are their beliefs?

A Mormon is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which was founded in 19th century America and has around 16 million followers around the world.

The Book of Mormon is a sacred text of the movement, which Mormons used alongside the Bible for teaching.

Mormonism is centred on strong traditional family life and values and “sins” such as gambling, smoking, drinking alcohol, drugs, tea, coffee, homosexuality, pornography and sex outside of marriage are forbidden.

Polygamy, or having more than one marital partner, was taught by the leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for more than half of the 19th century.

The tradition was stopped, however, over a century ago and mainstream churches even excommunicate anyone who practices it.

That being said, there are fundamentalist offshoots of the Mormon Church which still continue to practise polygamy - the Rockland Ranch being one of them.
