The couple have been together for 22 years and married last year in California before the State's laws were changed to block same-sex marriages.

"What we want is to display the normality and the joy of having a happy union," Takei says.

To win the show, contestants must answer various fun questions about their partner, to prove how much they really know about their 'newlywedded' spouse.
