Is anyone watching this on ITVBe?

I want to watch this but I’m away at the moment. Thought I’d give it a try on catch up....what do you think of it so far?

katiegoestoaldi · 14/08/2018 22:19

I've watched the first episode which is all that's on itv catchup at the moment. It looks like it's going to be really good! The contestants aren't as aware as the most recent ones on LI UK, it reminds me a lot of the first two seasons. There's a male model on it who is soooo aware of how gorgeous he is and talks with a slow drawl, reminds me a lot of Eyal

I don't think he's nearly as hot has he thinks he is though katiegoestoaldi - he's got a huge mouth and chin. I couldn't believe it when he was saying how "Being this good looking can be a curse" etc...
I think it could be quite a good series... Will be interesting when John James (from Big Brother a few years ago) arrives.

Glad someone else is watching it!!!! Male model is awful he looks like he's straight out of Zoolander- Eyal was way better.

Tayla is so stunning isn't she? No attractive guys though.
Millie's backstory with the rugby star is hilarious.
Erin seems totally unhinged.

The whole thing looks v promising but am watching 1 day late. I can't be bothered to stay up till after midnight for this!

Yamayo · 15/08/2018 18:05

By the way is it just me or does Sophie Monk (the presenter) have an awful voice? I'd never heard her speak and can't quite believe she's getting jobs as a TV presenter.

DecoratingNovice · 15/08/2018 18:13

I watched a lot of this via YouTube over the summer. They posted loads of content so even though each clip was only a few minutes (at most) you got a real insight into the show.

It's loads more entertaining than this year's UK version! And yes, Erin is unhinged but brilliant entertainment.

I think I will settle in for the full episodes Grin Gin

wontonsoup · 15/08/2018 19:45

So much better than the uk version. Really like Erin as she's hilarious.
The model guy is so average! He's got a weird underbite thing going on. I don't see the attraction with Grant either, he's really fug imo.

Yamayo · 15/08/2018 23:07

Feel bad that I laughed watching Male Model cry.

MadameFoner · 16/08/2018 00:14

Loving this already....I think Erins hilarious! I defo wouldn't cross her!

Yamayo · 16/08/2018 23:09

OMG is Grant going to get away with this????

desperatehousewife21 · 17/08/2018 08:32

I’ve got them recorded am just now watching the first episode they are just in the process of coupling up.

Erin thinks she’s the dogs bollocks.

tuckingfypo · 17/08/2018 08:40

I'm on episode 2.

Disappointed in the guys initially (lookswise) but the more I look at Josh the more I like him, he reminds me of Ben McKenzie (Gotham, The OC)

I also think Grant is growing on me, he reminds me of a more buffed up Joseph Gordon Levitt, I think it's the eyes.

I think Millie is beautiful, but she knows it.

Male model guy is a bit creepy, he thinks a lot of himself and was visibly shocked when no one stepped forward for him. Just like Daniel in Love Island Uk season 2, they both have something very slimey about them

Hippywannabe · 17/08/2018 08:59

I love the Australian version, I have seen a few episodes but I won't give spoilers! I don't ecen remember a Daniel in Live Island 2!

Mummylin · 17/08/2018 11:42

I am watching it and think it's going to be really lively with lots of arguments etc. Can't stand all the bloody crying though after just a couple of days. Haven't got used to all their names yet, but I like the blonde who had her hair in pigtails. She dosent seem to worry about anything. Don't think the men are that special.

Yamayo · 17/08/2018 18:39

Elias has officially come up with peak Love Island intro. Brilliant.

Elliss2018 · 18/08/2018 21:40

Just watched the first episode. Don't like Millie at all Confused

Looks like it will be entertaining!

SmellMyBeads · 19/08/2018 06:27

Edited by MNHQ - This post contains spoilers

The start was good and then it got a bit boring. The face on Erin when Grant and Tayla won was excellent Grin

FullMetalRabbit · 19/08/2018 23:17

Has this already finished in Australia? Don’t want to google anything as I don’t want any spoilers.

Looking forward to recoupling tomorrow night. The male model’s personality is non-existent!

Yamayo · 21/08/2018 09:00

CANNOT believe Tayla picked Grant. Not only is he totally unattractive he's also a passive agressive 2 timing liar!

Peachpebbles · 21/08/2018 10:00

Grant's behaviour to Cassidy has been awful. I'm loving Eden & Erin. Not sure about John James bribing Kim to be coupled up.

Yamayo · 21/08/2018 11:28

Also puzzled by Cassidy claiming Elias had supported her through the Grant debacle. They've not been shown to have had one single conversation...Hmm

Giant's been awful to Cassidy to her face but also to Tayla behind her back. The way he's described her as desperate to both Cassidy and Eden has been awful. She would not be impressed if she knew.

There's no way they can last.

HurricaneHalle · 21/08/2018 22:36

I'm watching on Catch Up and had a bit of a marathon session on Eps 1-4 whilst leaving my children to fend for themselves or as I call it creating independence.

It looks like it will be explosive. I'm watching Ep6 now.

None of the men grab me. Justin's photos were amazing but in real life he is huge disappointment. Obvs I'm no oil painting myself but still....

HurricaneHalle · 21/08/2018 23:05

Well aren't Grant and Tayla pure snakes! I really like Cassidy. She deserves better.

Sophie's face at the re coupling was a picture! Much prefer her to Flack.

tuckingfypo · 22/08/2018 09:36

Grant is a gaslighting little fucker. I didn't think there would ever be a LI couple I hated more than Wes and Megan but I really hate Grant and Tyla.

Also found out who won and all I thought was the Australian public must have been drunk when voting these 2 to win Confused

Peachpebbles · 22/08/2018 20:07

I think Erin is coming across really well; funny, aware of her vulnerability yet confident with it and loyal (babe). But what have I missed- why does she dislike Millie so much??
