Anyone else watching this madness?!

When they interview the couples before a match is made, do they choose photos of people they fancy, so that the "scientists" can choose similar?

Because this one looks old enough to be his mum - not that she is, she just looks it.

ImperialBlether · 01/11/2016 21:55

I think the first couple tonight (blonde woman) have far more chance than this couple.

MitzyLeFrouf · 01/11/2016 21:56

So much awkwardness with these two

MitzyLeFrouf · 01/11/2016 21:57

Her dad is lovely though

Chippednailvarnishing · 01/11/2016 21:58

They're cringe inducing.

MitzyLeFrouf · 01/11/2016 22:00

I think she envisaged being matched with some hunky posh boy

ShyOyster · 01/11/2016 22:20

Oh dear. I forgot this was on tonight and just catching up now. Lucy and Steve (I think that's his name?) are just so cringe inducing. I find her very irritating, not sure why..

MrsSchadenfreude · 01/11/2016 22:37

I think Lucy was clearly delighted with Steve, but I don't think he was as enamoured of her. It all felt quite awkward, and there were a lot of WTF faces from the guests.

braceybracegirl · 01/11/2016 22:52

Watching on plus 1.
Steve and Lucie seem an odd match. Looks and personality wise.

thenightsky · 01/11/2016 22:57

Lucy looks a lot older than Steve.

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 01/11/2016 23:09

Oh dear, poor Steve seems so shy and nervous. I can't see this working. Adam and Sara...not sure. Looking forward to next week.

Rrross1ges · 01/11/2016 23:12

I loved how Lucy's friends reacted to the best man and then poor Steve.

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 01/11/2016 23:16

I thought Steve was ok looking. I think Lucy looks like a Victorian wench. She was maybe expecting a dark and brooding guy in jodhpurs. Grin

Moanranger · 01/11/2016 23:25

Amazed all 4 actually got married -thought for sure someone would bolt! Lucy & Steve I have my doubts about, although she comes across as warm. I think the women this time come across as friendly & open. The female of the couple that stayed together the longest from the first series was incredibly prickly, which I think is not a good trait.
I noticed in the trailers for next week Caroline says that DC look-alike was"the nicest, nicest guy.." and then the camera cuts away so I imagine that will be followed with "...but I don't fancy him" . But I could be wrong.

Naicehamshop · 01/11/2016 23:33

I thought Steve was ok, just very shy. Had a feeling that Lucy had rather unrealistic expectations...

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 01/11/2016 23:46

Steve was nice,but more confidence and he's be REALLY nice imo,he's just a but timid atm. No idea why he thinks he's not good looking,hes a great catch.

Bridget Jones? Yeah,alright loveHmm

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 01/11/2016 23:48

So many typos!

ManagersDilemma · 02/11/2016 00:33

Did anyone else think Sara's mum came across as really unpleasant? There were a couple of things she said about her daughter that I picked up on: "I thought she'd never get married - she's so particular" and "He seems to have a good sense of humour, which he'll need with my daughter". She said these with a totally straight face - possibly just a bone-dry sense of humour but it seemed serious. It was a bit sad to watch, especially with Sara having lost her dad at a young age.

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 02/11/2016 08:04

Yes I didn't like Sara's mum either. She seems the type you could never please and it only took a bit of smooth talking from Adam for her to suddenly think he was great and her daughter was luckyHmm

hollyisalovelyname · 02/11/2016 08:42

I thought Steve was nice. I can't see that lasting. Lucie appears quite confident. Her Mum looked lovely in her wedding outfit.. It must be hard for Lucie that her Mum has dementia at a young( ish) age.
I thought Sara's husband could have shaved for the occasion. Smile

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 02/11/2016 08:50

I thought he looked better before the wedding with his beard. I don't know what it is about Lucy, I think she seems a bit of a dreamer so married life might not live up to her ideals.

x2boys · 02/11/2016 10:45

i,m not sure about either couple last night , i though Clark and Melissa matched each other physically both, very attractive and there seemed to be a spark and i thought Adam and Caroline were very cute together but last night i was a bit meh about both of them neither couple seemed well suited

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 02/11/2016 11:27

They didn't tell us much about the matching process, which is really the interesting bit for me. They went into a lot of detail in the usa version, it was fascinating. Maybe they'll drip feed it throughout the series.

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 02/11/2016 11:32

I think Sara'sum had valid points,her child could be marrying anyone - a wife beater,cheater,lazy slob,who knows?! She was probably very worried and totally relieved when he seemed like a nice man. The man last year looked nice but within a week he was back on Tinder because he was in denial he was gay

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 02/11/2016 11:42

To be fair, if it was my DD I would be gutted and would probably turn up dressed in black and sobbing. Grin
