Fake couple say "I do" despite protests

The ceremony was briefly interrupted when housemates were asked by the minister if anyone knew of any reason why the couple shouldn't marry.
"I think you all know how I feel," Alexandra said, getting to her feet. "I contest."
When asked why, she responded: "My objection is that I feel this a sham for a number of reasons. The relationship itself is not strong enough to marry on UK TV. I think it's a sham."
Alexandra's objections were dismissed, with the minister's voice telling her: "That is not a lawful impediment to the marriage."
The couple proceeded to say their vows, exchange rings and share a kiss before signing the registry to the applause of their fellow housemates.
Mario, who had earlier called off the wedding after a row, was referred to by real name Shaun Astbury throughout the ceremony.
