About This Program

Don’t Tell the Bride – Best of Bride is a television episode that pulls together some of the most memorable moments from the long‑running series. It’s packaged as a programme rather than a full series, and it fits squarely within the “episode” genre of the original show. The episode is fronted by actress Patsy Palmer, who guides viewers through a ranked list of the top twenty most surprising highlights. Palmer’s role is to introduce each entry and keep the countdown moving, giving the audience a clear sense of where each clip sits in the hierarchy of the series’ most unexpected moments. The focus of the countdown is the core premise of the series: a groom‑to‑be is given full control over his wedding planning, while his fiancée is kept completely out of the process. The highlights selected for this special showcase the most astonishing, funny, or dramatic instances where the groom’s decisions lead to outcomes that catch everyone off guard. By stitching together these standout scenes, the Best of Bride episode offers a compact look at the show’s most striking examples of a man taking the reins of his own nuptials. It serves as a quick, entertaining recap for both longtime fans and newcomers who want a taste of the series’ unique wedding‑planning twist.
