Made in Chelsea back next week!

[Scarletohello]

Weirdly I only got into this last season. Watched one episode and got hooked! Fortunately E4 have been showing the earlier episodes so I'm catching up. I thought I'd hate it but it's so compelling. All they do is shag each other, cheat on each other, break up and gossip about each other. It's a fantastic soap opera and all the girls have amazing swishy hair!

Excited about the new series, anyone else?

Alex is such a sleaze, fancy just remembering all those other girls he shagged behind her back. Binky's love for him is evident though, that's why he's confessing now, he knows she'll go back with him.

I hope Lucy is paying her intern, it looks like work for nothing!

Sam is always a very strange colour, a kind of dull yellowy gray. His sister is always orange. They are very odd siblings and their interactions painful.

What a mess, Alex is grim.

Sam does look one step away from being sick. Pasty.

Agree on intern, it appears that Riley is doing all the work.

I think Sam is grey looking because the others are so golden fake tanned! The other girl at the end last night that wasn't one of the main cast also looked ashen probably for the same reason. James read sleep balm all round

I'm definitely team Lucy, Binky needs to get a grip and tell Alex to do one! What has she got such low self esteem and confidence to take it? Alex's hair is getting thicker and bigger by the minute too!

Sam does look a bit pasty, like he needs some fresh air, vegetables and bracing walks.

Or perhaps a blood transfusion vjg!

To quote Mean Girls - That's why his hair is so big, it's full of secrets.

I loved Mamma Binky calling Alex a gimp! He really is. Binky needs to locate her self esteem and show that idiot the door. I also wish she'd ditch the fake hair and fake tan. They aren't doing her any favours.

Glad to see hostilities resuming between Lucy and Weez, it's all been far too cordial this season.

Missed Spenny and Biscuits.

This relationship will change Binky from a lovely, trusting girl to a bitter, suspicious woman. I can't bring myself to hate really Alex though because I think there's a lot of societal pressure for people to be in relationships they're just not ready for and they end up cheating. He's not really getting away with it the way Spenny does for some reason, not throwing enough Prada handbags around perhaps?

Poor Lucy getting it in the neck just for being a loyal friend. I love you Lucy, I will be your friend because I value the truth.

Sam is much more watchable with a bit of angst. He was just such a tit before.

I hope Stephanie stays, I love her.

Mark Francis good value as always.

Glad to see Spenny and Jamie are back next week. Why has Spenny gone back to first series Hair Do though? he looked hot when it was all short and artfully messy.

Louise and Rosie - meh! I wouldn't miss them if they were written out.

Oh I forgot Stevie, WTF was that horrific jacket he was wearing. He's still funny but maybe is being a bit of a knob because of his breakup.

Edo was quite promising I thought.

When the hell is Fran going to get a decent story line? She'll be out next series I think.

Stivvy is getting a teeny bit cocky.

Alex always looks as though he's about to burst out laughing when he's giving one of his couldn't give a fuck style apologies to Binks.

He's totally only staying with her because she's more popular than him and everyone will hate him if they properly break up.

And this is why Spenny's girlfriends always forgive him too because he's more popular richer and well established than them and people would prefer to be friends with him.

I don't like the DF but have the app and I have to laugh at Jim Shelleys MIC blog. He has TT spot on

Stevie looks just like an ex boyfriend, it's unnerving!

I sat next to Edo on the tube this morning

Was thinking about Alex and red flags and remember the first time he invited Binky to his place for dinner. He had also invited Fran but sent her a text with some lie about how he had to cancel. He then told Binky what he had done so he could get her alone. I guess she was flattered but to me it showed he lacked integrity and would lie when it was expedient....

There's a saying I once heard, ' the way
You do anything is the way you do everything', and to me he showed his true colours by that one action...

The red flag with Alex was that he cheated repeatedly on Phoebe. Phoebe was mental, but that's not the point... I knew he was going to cheat on Binky... and he certainly doesn't love her.

What did Sam and Louise's parents do to raise such strange children?
Sam went out with Riley for a month. It's quite ridiculous. Lucy is so right that Louise is delighted someone is making decisions that make hers look less demented. She's the last person to take relationship advice from.

I want to see the 'Mark Francis Show' - I could watch it for hours.

Ahem

I said

I sat next to Edo on the tube this morning.

Alex is a whiny coward.

Sorry, which one is Edo..? Is he the new young dark haired one..?

Twinkle, yes you're right about red flags ( only just catching up with the previous episodes!) but I remember having a bad feeling about Alex when he did that thing about lying to Fran so he could get Binky alone and was a bit horrified that she seemed flattered and didn't pull him up on it.

It was Edo's party that the poshos gatecrashed. He is kind of blonde

Maybe Phoebe became very untrusting and bitchy towards people after having been repeatedly cheated on and lied to by Alex? He's currently doing his best to mess with Binky's head.

When did they gate crash a party? I'm having a blank.

Ha ha I must have been really drunk and forgotten it, like Mytton

I'm assuming the Fran/Binky dinner thing was engineered by the producers rather than being Alex's idea.

I'm a teeny bit excited by that Thunderbumsmum even if everyone else isn't.
