Curtis, you're not Jesus bruv

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻for next thread title

@JulyJuly19 how did you get that Danny was an arrogant prick from last nights episode given that he didn't speak lol

Anna is getting far too much airtime

I'm quite disturbed at the way Michael and Curtis have turned them both just fancying other women into being 'driven away' by their former partners, leading to unnecessary self-reflection by poor Amy and Amber.

This must happen all the time in real life and each time it happens these women must think it's all their fault and just get more neurotic with each dumping.

Is it just me or has the hideaway only been used once this whole series???
Obviously tom and Maura didn’t happen.
Amy & Curtis went in there early on.
Is this normal?
Send in michael & Amber 🤣

It's not just women that get dumped in real life.

I would say that most of the jumpers will blame the dumped in some way. And let's be fair, you only break up with someone because theres something about them you dont like. Most splits are nice and get shitty.

Being dumped in general, is shit.

I think Curtis is a dick. But I do think Amy does need to do some self reflection. For her own sake. She clearly gets far too invested too quickly, even when there are blatant signs that she shouldnt.

She should do some self reflection for her own good. I dont think that's why curtis dumped her, but I do think she is partly at fault for running away with herself.

“I'm quite disturbed at the way Michael and Curtis have turned them both just fancying other women into being 'driven away' by their former partners, leading to unnecessary self-reflection by poor Amy and Amber. ”

It was clearly both things at play. It is entirely understandable that people might not want to have Amy or Amber as partners given how they behave.

Yes, he seems like a nice bloke but there's something about him that reminds me of Grumio from Plebs (very funny show, if you haven't seen it, you should.

YES - I literally thought it was just me that thought this about Jordan!

Curtis' behaviour is all about the cameras and popularity, which is why none of it makes sense.

He was never that into Amy, but acted and played the game as he thought they were popular with the public (the Jack/Dani couple).

During the tweets ep, and when they revealed the top 3 couples, just before Casa Amor obviously shocked him and changed his game massively.

Unless there was drastic editing, he hardly knew Jourdan at all before asking her to couple up with him half an hour before the recoupling in Casa Amor. He'd obviously decided he was going to ditch Amy but bizarrely didn't seem to make any effort to win any girls in Casa Amor over.

So he's a game player that fucked it up. Not a nice person.

Anton Belle arse shaving is obvs about camera time as well.

It's too scripted and orchestrated this year.

To be fair I've seen this with women being the dumper too. There's never a nice way to do it. In this case, yes Michael got angry and Curtis was cowardly, but I don't think their sex has anything to do with it. And frankly, being told you don't meet someone's criteria because you are or aren't x, y and z is bound to lead to a level of introspection.

I can see why Amber would be wanting Michael back - their chat was full of warmth and genuine feelings. Even I started thinking maybe they should get back together. Then the date with Ovie, and even though they do just seem friends - Amber really came alive! She's done herself proud.

But Ovie is by far the loveliest person in there now - he was already undeniably beautiful, but now you can see he has an awesome personality too!

My synopsis

Curtis- Mummy's boy
Michael- abusive gaslighter
Joanna- love her figure - doesn't appear to have much personality.
Jourdan - smug AGREED.

Amy- scarily intense
Anton - a gobshite
Maura - love her AGREED - but fuck's sake - Curtis?????
Belle - forgettable
Danny- which one is Danny?
Amber - clever
Jordan - nice but meh AGREED
Ovie - top guy AGREED Also think he's very intelligent.
Anna - a thundering cunt
Lucie- like a ship lost at sea
George - anyone in there? AGREED!!!!!!
Tommy- a soppy git which he can carry off because.... boxer
Molly - nice girl
Who's the fella Maura is with? He's just not good looking at all!

I sincerely hope Maura chose Marvin as she realises how wonderful it is to hear her say "Maaaarrrrvin"

Hi first time poster but I’ve read all the threads.
Producers must have a new boy and girl coming in for Maura and Curtis.
If she didn’t pick him in a recoupling who would?!
So that must be the plan.
The girls have to be picking next. To have the Anna Ovie or Jordan storyline 😃

Maaaaarrrrvin anything is better than her shouting TAM every two minutes to be honest.

I don't get Anna, I find her quite dull (in fairness there's a lot of dull there this year, could they not make them do some more fun things/challenges?!) and plus I don't really hear a lot she says as I'm too busy wondering what she looked like before she got her lilo-lips....

If Ovie is a father - rumours or true? - wonder how many days a week/fortnight he parents his DC.

Amy and Marvin need to go on a date
Yes genius!
When’s the next recoupling?
Love Ovies personality and I could put up with his looks

Lol - Maura's accent is very similar to an Irish traveller accent. Not everyone in Longford speaks like that! Ok.. maybe they do.

I'm from the next county to Maura.

The accent I find hardest to understand is Amber's. Where is she from? She sounds like Cheryl Cole to my ear?

Who do you all think has the highest IQ in the villa?

Amber is from Newcastle

@Loopytiles wtf??? Why is that anyone's business

I think you'd have to possibly say Anna and Michael would be quite high just given their masters degrees etc but not everyone with a high IQ has gone on to further education. Can we ask the producers to do a test on them
