A second mused: ‘I’m watching this #wanderlust and it’s more than just shagging. Sex is more than just shagging, it’s complicated.’
A third stated simply: ‘I bet they will both end up with different partners at the end.’
Dozens of viewers claimed the idea was doomed from the start as couples can never have affairs without developing feelings. Pictured, examples of some of the reaction shared online
The first two episodes saw Joy embark on a sexual affair with a man named Marvin, including an explicit scene of mutual masturbation which made headlines as it featured the first female orgasm aired on the BBC.
However Marvin broke off the relationship after learning Joy only wanted a physical connection, deeming it to be ‘greedy’.
Last night Joy moved on with another lover named Marc, who was enthusiastic about her open marriage and desire for sex without a relationship.
Another scene saw the couple’s unlucky-in-love daughter Laura falling into bed with Jason, one of her mother’s patients whom she had bumped into on a night out

Moments later the father-of-three met his wife after her date with Marc and the husband and wife had sex in the family car.
However the first true cracks in the plan began to show when Alan drove to Claire’s house to confess he also had feelings.
