Love Island - part 4

New thread

Ellie is defo not into Alex, she avoided the question when Zara asked her and said he was sweet?!
Has anyone ever been in as long as Samira and not been "romantic"? It's just dragging on now and I don't think Sam will choose her.
I like Laura but she's annoying me with how like a little puppy she is, fawning over Wes and being all giggly etc, I think she'll look back on this and absolutely cringe.

[MiddleClassProblem]

Yeah, they defo have done newbie picking first in the past. They just order it depending on who wants to pick whom (is that the right way round? 😂) and which order might cause the most suspense or drama. So if Sam wants Georgia they’ll make sure he picks before Josh.

[MiddleClassProblem]

Camilla took a long time to find someone before Jonny came in (and was a twat).

[MiddleClassProblem]

Oh and did Lauren ever get with anyone in S2? I can’t remember. I really liked her.

[Bluntness100]

I agree if he picks Zara or Georgia he will just be voting himself off the island, they will stay in their real couples and just recouple up when they get the chance and leave him with no one. However he seems quite arrogant and full of himself, so who knows.

The only one who won't I think is Ellie.

[MiddleClassProblem]

Oh and old Adam only found Katie (briefly) at the end.

then pick them at the next recoupling? Or is that not how it works? You can’t force someone to be part of an actual couple, surely.

Of course they can fight against the recoupling and continue to spend time with the other person, but then it might come to a “which couple are least compatible” vote and they’d get themselves voted off anyway, so it’s in their interest to at least pretend they’re interested in getting to know them or are “torn” between the one they were with and their new partner. They’ll be sent on dates etc

sam doesnt like samira. thats very clear. when he was sat talking with zara and ellie i dont know if anyone else heard this but they asked him who he fancies now that he has spoken to everyone, and he said theres 5 now, zara, ellie, rosie and georgia, then he said "whose the 5th" and couldnt remember who the 5th girl was, it was ellie and zara who had to remind him it was samira.

and then pick them at the next recoupling? Or is that not how it works? You can’t force someone to be part of an actual couple, surely. Would seem pointless for him to do that?

Im not sure, but I watched a clip yesterday of Australian love island: some called Cassidy I think (who they were all accusing of game playing) picked someone called Grant who very obviously did not want to couple up with her. He seemed to be with someone else called Tayla and after the recoupling Grant and Tayla were holding hands and swearing at Cassidy. I have no idea what was going on, but it looked pretty awesome!

The only justification for choosing Georgia or Zara would be if he genuinely thought he could turn their heads. He might be arrogant enough to think that, but I don't think Zara is for turning.

He would just be voting himself off. So I think it's between Ellie if he gets in before Alex and Samira or Rosie if he doesn't.

Initially he didn't fancy Rosie at all but he did seem to have changed his mind after last night. I think she's too little of a challenge. And could he actually put up with her personality and slap? (I agree she's much prettier during the day without makeup and dreadful false eyelashes).

Where does one find Aus LI, I've got a 'friend' who wants to know? 👀

[reek]

Just caught up with everyone's posts and agreeing so much with what's already been said.

Confused as to why Sam put Samira in his top 4 but then pretty much ignored her when talking to Rosie. Agree that Samira is not at all flirty. She called him "son" when she came over to him and Rosie, "Alright son" or something along those lines. Bit too matey, especially when next to desperado Rosie. I don't think he's all that into Rosie but I'm not sure who else he will pick.

Definitely questioning Ellie's feelings towards Alex. It must be really off-putting to watch him being cheered and patted on the back every time they have a conversation. Although Alex is completely awkward as it is, the other boys aren't doing him any favours by talking to him like he's a 14yr old who's never spoken to a girl before.

I really want there to be a "Who said what?" type game and Laura can find out Wes was actually into Ellie and questioning when he could be happier with someone else. And only went back to Laura when Ellie said it wouldn't go any further than friends. I love the drama!

Ooh you’re mean! But I like it

[Frillyfarmer]

The last two recouplings where one person gets dumped, it has been a girl, that’s not fair!

Eyal is annoying me less than he has done previously, but perhaps because he’s being less confrontational and getting less air time.

Alex is just a fucking creep - he was so needy and whingy yesterday when Ellie was talking to Sam, I’d run a fucking mile.

Zara “I like a bad boy” is going to be eating her own words if she couples up with bad boy adam.

@Shambu

I have only been watching Australian LI clips on YouTube, there are loads, but I don't know how you would watch the whole thing?

[ScarletLouise]

Rosie with way less slap and toned down brows.. SO much prettier.

[SomeBritishLadNamedKarisque1]

Who gets voted out?

[Chipstick10]

In that case I don’t think Danni is playing the game either. She is coasting and it’s stsrting to piss me off.
There were a few shots of Rosie snoozing in last nights episode and she looked so so pretty without any make up on

[Bluntness100]

If the producers want to stabd a chance of keeping Rosie in, they will let alexs pick first, as he will pick Ellie.

Sam might just go for Rosie if Ellie not available. I suspect he quite likes Georgia though.

Tonight will be interesting....we will be able to tell how manipulated it is by the picking order.

[soupforbrains]

My guess for the order for picking at the recoupling is Jack, Eyal, then Wes, Then SAM (because the show will want to give him options so that it has the most potential for a shake up)
The I would guess Josh, then Alex and Adam last.

[Thirtyrock39]

I've seen a twitter rumour that Ellie has left as she was friends with Sophie

[soupforbrains]

Alternatively they might put Sam first.

The production team only usually put the steady couples first because they want to maximise drama and leaving the questionable pairings until later helps that. but giving Sam free-pick of the girls would add far more to the drama.

[Chipstick10]

Was so disappointed with Zara last night. She was like putty with Adam as I probably suspected but had a least small hopes that she would play a little bit harder to get than that

[Bluntness100]

Ah that would be a shame,p.

I think we are a couple of days behind though, so imagine she is still in for the picking..,,

[Pinook]

but then it might come to a “which couple are least compatible” vote

Good point, I hadn’t thought of that. In other series did they do the ‘which couple are least compatible’ vote more than once?
