Tomorrow’s going to be awkward Grin

mummyofcutetwo · 07/10/2018 23:01

Awkward!

nancy75 · 07/10/2018 23:01

Alex seems surprised, he must have known this was going to happen at some point?

wizzler · 07/10/2018 23:03

Love this show. Glad I have found you lot as I don't know many people irl watching it

mummyofcutetwo · 07/10/2018 23:03

If I was Alex I'd have been hoping I'd be meeting the others in private - introduced in public, but then a chance to chat properly of camera

mummyofcutetwo · 07/10/2018 23:05

@wizzler I don't know anyone IRL who watches it. I've even tried to recruit fellow followers but have been unsuccessful!

BertBox · 07/10/2018 23:05

Who are you lot voting for for the 25k?

I've picked Dan, as I think Sian will win the whole thing - I don't think even Freddie will give her a 1.

Petalflowers · 07/10/2018 23:06

I wonder if an alternative name for this series was Catfish?

Jasperoonicle · 07/10/2018 23:08

I am already bereft - what are we going to do in the evenings after tomorrow???

CheshireSplat · 07/10/2018 23:09

Anyone else having trouble on the app? I'm trying to vote but it's having trouble registering me. And then pinged a reminder through to vote.

I would vote for Sian. Was thinking about Alex/Kate as he's been really entertaining, but I reckon he'll do well in life and won't need the money.

itswinetime · 07/10/2018 23:11

I have voted I voted Alex/Kate because I'm sure Sian will win the 50k

Muglife · 07/10/2018 23:12

Just voted for Kate! I wanted Dan the other day ( ooh err 😂) but because he said tonight he expected to be second and was shocked I've gone with Kate! I might give my 2nd vote to him tomorrow though.

Looks like he might have realised why Sian and Freddie were top 2 ...finally! Ooooh tomorrow will be sooo good...but also soooo sad cos it's over 😢

I think Alex was thinking they would meet when it was all done and dusted, NOT before the actual final! His girlfriend looks lovely! It was weird seeing her, moving and talking, not just a still photo ha!

MyNewBearTotoro · 07/10/2018 23:13

I picked Sian. I think the other players will be a lot more tactical for the final ratings, they’ll see Sian as competition and vote her low and unfortunately for her I don’t think Freddie will vote her high this time as it won’t benefit him if she’s not going to be an influencer. I think Freddie will go 1* across the board.

Dan feels like everyone was snakey in their ratings of him last time so i think he’ll vote everybody low too and then I think Dan will win it as Kate will vote 5 for him, even if Sian and Freddie vote low I think he will be the only player to get 5s.

My prediction is:
Dan 1st
Freddie 2nd
Sian 3rd
Kate 4th

Muglife · 07/10/2018 23:14

Have you voted before? If your iPhone you have to do something, can't remember what though! I'm android. But it says what to do in the FAQ on the app

alphajuliet123 · 07/10/2018 23:16

Why is Sian so popular? I've watched it on and off and I don't think she's as strong a character as the other 3.

I'd like Kate/Alex to win, also Dan but he's a bit dopey. Freddie is entertaining but I don't think I'd like him at all in real life.

MyNewBearTotoro · 07/10/2018 23:19

I like Sian because her and Dan are the only two who are being honest and genuine, but whereas Dan comes across as really arrogant Sian just seems really down to earth. I also like the fact she hasn’t been perfect and has gotten involved in some drama etc but has always recognised it afterwards and apologised and done the better thing. She has integrity and I really respect that in her.

CheshireSplat · 07/10/2018 23:24

Uninstalled and reinstalled the app and I've voted for Sian.

Just watched Harry's reaction to seeing Alex. Very funny.

I was wondering at the start of this house how people who were straightforward would come out of it. It's really nice to see that Sian and Dan are usually at the top as they appear to be genuinely nice.

DSHathawayGivesMeFannyGallops · 07/10/2018 23:36

Kalex got my people's choice vote. I suspect Sian will win, which is fair but I'm not overly keen on her as person! I do think someone honest should win but Alex has also been the gentlest catfish known to man!
Basically anyone but Freddie!

Jasperoonicle · 07/10/2018 23:37

Is it really only on for an hour tomorrow night?? I was hoping for a 2 hour show but I cant see anything online.

GhoulWithADragonTattoo · 07/10/2018 23:38

I loved Harry’s reaction to seeing Kate on the app! Hilarious! Grin

I’ve voted for Dan. I thought he’s been great all the way through. And he’s going to be devastated when finds out about Kate.

FurryBuzzer · 07/10/2018 23:39

Yes I thought Harry's reaction to K-Alex was funny too. He thought something was up but not that. I wonder what he thought it was?
Cracked up at Sian joking that Freddy might be gay! He was so freaked out 🤣

I like the way you can vote once tonight and once tomorrow, presumably in case you view changes. I've voted K/Alex tonight but I'm planning on voting Dan tomorrow (unless he does something awful!) as they're my top tw. I think it would have been dull without K/Alex's cat fishing.

I hope they all get to meet Fiji too!

I think Dan will change the way he votes now, could be interesting. They get their average score so they could make some educated guesses about how it might break down with individual votes.

I assumed before I saw a vote they would have to give someone 5 stars, someone 4, someone 3 etc. Is there anything to stop them voting everyone 1 star?

FurryBuzzer · 07/10/2018 23:42

Also, because I'm basically a terrible person, I kind of want them to bring Alex out, get him reunited with his girlfriend and then bring out Dan and introduce him to the pair of them so he thinks Kate is real...

I don't really, because I like Dan and that would be really mean but the idea tickled me!

Muglife · 07/10/2018 23:46

I've changed my mind about voting Dan tomorrow now. I don't want to split the vote, it renders it potentially pointless doesn't it. I'll stick with Kate. Can't risk Freddie winning or Sian adding to her 50k win lol!

itswinetime · 07/10/2018 23:47

The ratings haven't been fully explained but I think there is some kind of rule like only 2 one stars or something otherwise don't understand why you wouldn't rate everyone a 1.

I was going to give dan a vote but he didn't come across that well tonight I think 🤔

itswinetime · 07/10/2018 23:47

Yeah I think it's 2 votes to Kate for me
