New series is back, have to say not much we happened. But jp has serious anger issues and good on ollie for standing up to him. Binky will no doubt go back to him, she has appalling taste in men.

Glad proudlocks back and bouillon next week

Just catching up. OH MY GOD JP IS AWFUL! He is utterly awful. It makes me feel so uncomfortable to watch that level of emotional abuse. Thank goodness for Olly and (and I can't believe I'm saying this) Rosie

NickiFury · 26/10/2016 22:39

Can you imagine the misery of a marriage and children with the nit picking, accusatory, impossibly high standards and interrogative communication style of Gay P?😵

BusMum79 · 26/10/2016 23:24

Hideous. Not to mention the volume of laundry with all that profuse sweating and fake tan he has on

MiddleClassProblem · 26/10/2016 23:46

He is so stubborn in thinking he is right and his view of the world is right. Who needs that?

I do t like Frankie, particularly with how France ended but I will say this, she is less controlling than peeps in TOWIE. There you can't sleep with someone even months after you break up with someone and they are very much into "gender roles" and ways to behave.

YuckYuckEwwww · 26/10/2016 23:49

Christ imagine being post natal and having JP coming home to you telling you that you had to be "the best you you can be" every fucking day!

GloopyGhoul · 26/10/2016 23:56

Was Francis just doing his eyebrows in the cutlery???

sheldonesque · 27/10/2016 02:04

I felt sorry for Liv when Boule went casual on her in the restaurant. She looked crestfallen.

Agree she held her own with Toff, though I suspect her tears after that were more because of Boule. Not sure what he is playing at. A huge gesture like that for her birthday and then a do one speech over dinner? Not very nice.

I'm another one that has warmed hugely to Rosie.

I would like to formally retract the mean spirited nickname I gave her. Rosie. I'm sorry. You are not a henchwoman. Of any variety.

MiddleClassProblem · 27/10/2016 09:33

I like Rosie because she's one of the few that calls MF and VB out on their shit, although we have now seen Ollie do it too.

The Binky cheska thing didn't put me off Binky as cheska was annoying

YuckYuckEwwww · 27/10/2016 12:13

agree that Livs tears were probably really about Francis.

I think Francis really likes her though but his head is saying "relationships are not in the life plan at this stage" and I think he'll regret listening to his head on this one

Cheskas was annoying towards the end, but I him she was puttting up with a lot by then. Binky can be COLD and Cheska isn't the only friend she's dumped without any sign of sadness.

Revealall · 27/10/2016 16:55

My theory is that Boule likes Liv but due to his past crapness with women assumes she is out of his league. She is also younger so can waltz off easily with someone rise.
Reckon that's why he is happy to string Toff along a bit. He quite likes that she likes him.

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/10/2016 17:19

Mad binky

Horrible Francis dumping Olivia

chicken2015 · 27/10/2016 17:53

I love MIC , I am finding jp just very annoying to watch I have to mute when he talks! I've always loved binky but I have to say I'm finding her a little annoying, love ollie and rosie, not liking frankie, am bit worried I'm not liking more people than liking this series!

ALikelyStory · 30/10/2016 20:40

Gosh I've just watched the previewed episode and JP is worse than ever so so controlling, she can't even think now!!!

AntheaBelveden · 31/10/2016 09:37

My friend saw Lil Sammeh in London this weekend. Her description cracked me up.

"Hair is worse in the flesh and he's a strange orange colour. Wearing too tight, badly fitting skinny jeans. All in all he gives off the air of someone desperately trying to be cool but failing miserably".

Revealall · 31/10/2016 21:52

Bollocks. Don't believe this senario with JP. Reckon the producers want a another Archers storyline. No way would Binky fall for that shit. And the crew would definitely be stepping in to tell her he was a knob ...

BusMum79 · 31/10/2016 21:58

AWFUL awful awful JP. I thought my OH just tuned out when MiC is on but during the last ad break he astonished me by ranting about how hideously emotionally abusive JP is and it can't be real because there is no way she would stand for it.

BeachysSandyFlipFlops · 31/10/2016 22:00

Run, Binky, run ......

SiennaNealon · 31/10/2016 22:01

Banks needs to wake up and ditch him permanently. The way he was speaking to her was vile. Not much feels real, I'm hoping this is all pretend. I hope he gets ditched and leaves forever. What a twat.

chicken2015 · 31/10/2016 22:35

I've been wondering why jp would agree to be this awful, as surely he must know how he's coming across!

damnyoufoulwoman · 01/11/2016 08:39

JP is so vile, a nasty abusive bastard, his face infuriates me. Surely she must see what he is like.

I am guessing JP doesn't think he is doing anything wrong, which is why he is doing it on telly, the boys seem to back him up but then don't actually see him in full abusive twat mode.

If I were binks mum, I would be doing my best to get her away from that twat.

On a lighter note, Jesses hair is so so so awful, it looks like straw.

Emily (think her name is) has bunny boiler vibes about her, mittons smart to ditch.

YuckYuckEwwww · 01/11/2016 10:00

I don't think it's necessarily 100% fake:

Mitten was AWFUL to Binks, yes he has charm which is why women take it from him, but he's an awful boyfriend. He's like spence - great fun mate, charming and able to keep women hanging on, but terrible horrible boyfriend! And Binks took more shit from mitten than anyone else has and kept going back for more meanwhile dumping any friends who raised concerns

JP doesn't think he looks awful, he thinks he's painting Binks as awful - an out of control alcoholic who needs (his) help..

user1474221222 · 01/11/2016 17:13

I loved the review which pointed out the predictability of the Mytton/Emily stortyline. He'll pursue her until she sleeps with him and then will avoid her until the last episode where she'll finally angrily confront him at some posh party with masks on sticks....

Bluesue26 · 01/11/2016 17:26

Jess is completely in love with Mytton and always has been. She's doing that thing that she did with Jamie. The minute someone comes into the picture she starts pissing up their legs. The only difference is she didn't want to shag Jamie whereas she'd hump Mytton until it fell off.

chicken2015 · 01/11/2016 17:41

Haha blue

YuckYuckEwwww · 01/11/2016 18:22

There's so much classic inverting/gasslighting from JP at the end of that last episode that it's got to be real - unless the writers/producers of MIC have suddenly jumped up a league!

You can see that he's trying to paint her as the problem so he probably thinks he's coming across well

He freaked out when she wouldn't slag off ollie, then when someone else joined the conversation he said that she's getting herself worked up when there's no problem.
Keeps telling her what to do, then calls her a know-it-all
Gives her a look that makes her visibly shrivle-up when she disagrees with him then tells her that she needs to learn to speak her mind

I feel a bit conflicted now watching this as "entertainment" because I don't believe this is fake, if it is then JP is a very talented actor and the MIC produces are FANTASTIC writers, and I doubt that
