LOVE ISLAND THREAD 5.

[HJWT]

Anyone!?

Did Tommy say he finds MM more attractive?

Maura actually has no bum.

I think for a 20 year old Maura is the kind of girl you would find really sexy on a night out/ONS but would be freaked out by 24/7.

Can you imagine if a man behaved like Maura...so sexually aggressive! We'd be horrified!

Totally agree about Maura, she's ruined it for herself there! If a guy pursued me like that I'd get my trainers on and RUN for the hills

I think the problem is MM and MH are polar opposites... MM is behaving like a petulant child, she stopped flirting with Tommy as soon as at MH arrived and began acting like a brat. MH started out flirty but is now acting like such a thirsty sex pest that it’s making her much less attractive.

I must be the only one who missed tonight but reading this thread has helped fill me in, thanks ladies

‘‘Twas a very good episode tonight. DH and I sit there cringing our arses off!

IMHO it is Maura and Tommy agent (they share same one) that told them both to go in and get together so they can earn double % for agent

It is purely ££££££££ that they are thinking about

Also am sure they knew each other beforehand

I can't stop cringing at Maura literally throwing herself at Tommy.

Just ewwwww.

And agree with pps, if a man was that forceful.... fuck, it would kick off.

I'm pleased he pied her off and he's definitely coming across much better as a result. I hope he picks Molly.

Amber and Michael are my favourite couple at the minute.

Honey Trap Higgins .

To be fair to Maura, she said she was going to shake things up and that's what she's trying to do. So many people say that and then you hardly notice they're there once they're in! She's playing the game and making a TV programme.

I like Lucie and felt sorry for her when the others (mostly Amy) accused her of not spending enough time with them. It looked like she was clearly enjoying having some alone time in the gym without the men around.

Curtis has really grown on me. He's good such a good head on his shoulders and is very kind. I'm not convinced about him and Amy as a couple though.

I think it's an act she is putting on the challenge with LI these days is standing out and she is definitely doing that!

I think it's an act. But I do think its rooted in a self esteem issue.

I think she believes the way to get any man is make it clear he doesnt have to work to get into her pants. Which, to be fair, probably works alot on Real Life.

But not so much if people are in in Love Island to raise their profile. Tommy is there to raise is celeb profile. I think he knows, long term that kissing Maura and going with her wont produce a long term relationship and make him look like a total dick.

@spellingtest
I think Curtis has been smuggled in as a psychiatric in disguise. He really is the voice of reason and always seems to pop up when needed.
... always seems to pop up when they need a professional .... ballroom dancer ! Thought I'd correct that for you !
I love Iain Sterling - wouldn't be able to watch it without him.

I'm so cynical. I can't remember what book I read (maybe Piers Morgan?) but it gave so many real life stories that most things in the press, X factor etc are set up.
So I'm thinking well done Tommy for not kissing Maura but is that a total set up? Has she been sent in to make him look good? To an agency she would be a low level earner whilst Tommy is big big money. Obv don't think MM is aware as she isn't playing it well though.
Whichever way it goes the agency will make money!

Was it 'The Insider' Summer? I've read that and I'm with you on the cynicism.

I like Curtis but this did make me laugh!

I love Maura's style, she reminds me of a cat toying with a mouse. It's all just a game to her and she'll play it until she's bored. I loved watching her, but agree she's gone too far. Instead of trying for a kiss she should have made a show of "getting to know" some of the other boys and letting Tommy have a bit of a chase.

I don't feel much sympathy for Mollie-M. She had her chance but was too busy stringing Tommy and Anton along (and mentioning Danny). It's fair enough to enjoy a bit of attention / love triangle but if you play it too long then they send someone else in.

I think what's unusual is that there aren't many unattached couples at the moment.

Danny and Yewande makes me feel uncomfortable. I think it's cos I can't see what Danny would see in her. Not that Yewande isn't attractive, but just the way she's coming across.
Danny reminds me of all the years viewers have been begging for someone to go in and just choose Samira or Laura or somesuch. It seemed like it'd be a good tactic but I'm not convinced, it's just awkward.

I agree,Danny and Yewande are so awkward.

He says "you have such a lovely smile" or whatever and she says "really"?

And then that's it!
I haven't watched any of the After Sun shows,maybe they spend more time together than you see on the main programme.

Maura's nose is so pinched it looks like Michael Jackson's!

Danny is so cringy.
I don’t know what it is but I really don’t like watching him.

Danny reminds me of a PT I used to know who was also from Hull. Funny how they have such similar characteristics as they are very different in looks.

I'm definitely team MM, not keen on Maura at all! She makes for good tv though.
Amy continues to be deeply irritating - I think Curtis will get fed up with her at some point!
