@SpanishFly they're doing stuff on the app & will be doing the last few shows.

DSHathawayGivesMeFannyGallops · 01/10/2018 14:13

I also think C4 will do what it takes to keep Kate in. Bit fortuitous that Hannah was knocked out otherwise - I think they did that to stop it all kicking off and to save Kalex. I'm sure there must be a public vote at some point this week that might up end everything. I really hope Freddie gets to see what people have said about him!!!

BlueKarou · 01/10/2018 14:18

@Cherrypi I wondered whether they were given guidelines on rating, or at least reminded that there might be public involvement towards the end so their reasons for low ratings had to be semi-genuine.

Although I think there was a little bit of tactical voting last time; I think someone lowered Sian's rating to try to keep her from being the top.

BertBox · 01/10/2018 16:11

How hilarious would it be if they bought in the real Kate, and she pretended to be Alex! 😁

DSHathawayGivesMeFannyGallops · 01/10/2018 16:14

Especially if Dan started making knock knock jokes at "Alex"Grin

Muglife · 01/10/2018 16:15

Oh wow 2 new players tonight!

Catmatrat · 01/10/2018 18:30

How long is it on for?

itswinetime · 01/10/2018 18:31

2 new I wasn't expect that! And from the statuses I'm thinking Ryan definitely went and he went to see Freddie

Leo90 · 01/10/2018 22:11

I'm loving Freddie meeting Ryan it's awesome.

MyNewBearTotoro · 01/10/2018 22:12

I love that Freddie is just the same person face-to-face with a player as he is over the screen. Not sure I’d be keen on him in real life but he’s great entertainment!

foxycleopauper · 01/10/2018 22:13

Glad Freddie was up front with him there. As much as Freddie does my head in!

Leo90 · 01/10/2018 22:16

I don't like Freddie but it would be no where near as interesting without him.

foxycleopauper · 01/10/2018 22:22

Totally agree @Leo90

itswinetime · 01/10/2018 23:08

Loved Ryan and Freddie meeting! I actually liked him better like that still ott but I agree wouldn't be much of a show without him!

Muglife · 01/10/2018 23:25

I like both the newbies, maybe Harry can put a stop to Sian's ( misplaced) loyalty to Freddie! He has been entertaining, but wow he was rude to Ryan! Upfront and honest though, I guess I'll allow him that! Don't mind him reaching the final,, but really don't want him to win. He's playing the game mind you, and doing it well!

Leo90 · 01/10/2018 23:26

Do you think he would actually throw Sian under the bus?

itswinetime · 01/10/2018 23:32

No I don't want Freddie to win! And yes I think Freddie would throw anyone under the bus

Leo90 · 01/10/2018 23:34

@itswinetime I think you're right but at the same time I want Freddie's one redeeming feature to be that in the end he stays loyal to Sian. Doubt it though.

I also can't believe how invested I've gotten.

nancy75 · 01/10/2018 23:50

Freddie would throw his own family under a bus to win this show!!

DSHathawayGivesMeFannyGallops · 02/10/2018 00:03

Freddie has already admitted that he just wants to keep Sian onside now, she's not forgiven for sticking up for Kate! So under the bus she goes.

Middersweekly · 02/10/2018 09:26

AIBU to feel sorry for Sian after Scotty confessed his real age. She was really creeped out by it and I have to agree it’s a bit off for a 36yr old man to be chatting up a 20yr old girl. He’s clearly on the look out for young and naive girls as no woman his own age would touch his immature ass with a barge pole!

Muglife · 02/10/2018 09:48

Its annoying me that it's being treated as a love/dating show by some. It's not about coupling up with someone, it's popularity. Getting coupled up is not the end goal for this. Scotty needs to remember that! He had slim pickings really for that date to be fair, but he really shouldn't have then used it to sleeze on her. Same with Mairead and Dan! Kate is doing it right, friend zoning everyone. Although in doing that they all ( except Dan 😁) think she's a bit dull.

To shake things up they could do a video chat option, would be amusing watching Kate,Mairead,and Freddie try to avoid it! Might make the others rethink who deserves the top stars!

DSHathawayGivesMeFannyGallops · 02/10/2018 11:52

I do feel a bit sorry for Sian, that's a big age gap that she's been lied to about. She's only 20. I hope he sees how disgustingly predatory he is- he has to go younger as any woman over about 26 likely wouldn't touch him, he's so sleazy.

Interested to see that we still have 4 of the originals- ok Genelle left, but it's still a 50/50 split, esp as Sian & Freddie and Kate & Dan are like opposing power couples trying to get newbies onside!

Goandplay · 02/10/2018 14:14

I love this show. I am going to miss it so much.

Where do they keep the newbies until they go in? Assuming in a similar set up, no tv, outside world access.

No one seems to get cabin fever from being alone?

Middersweekly · 02/10/2018 15:40

Exactly what I thought @ DSHathaway, he’s definitely predatory! It’s made me go right off him the dirty old goat!
I actually really like Dan and think he’s a strong contender to win, even though he’s the biggest catfish mug going lol!
