LOVE ISLAND 19😎🌸🔥you savage

[andri157]

Incase the current one gets filled🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Oh and I think they really need to have a think about who they put it next year. They need people with a bit of personality but most importantly who are normal people are not Instagram famous or have famous siblings.

Unless amber picks ovie first I think Francesca will.

I like ovie. He's the least try hard in there.

Curtis is a ballroom dancer, surely if he were gay - he’d be gay?!

@Protein Well to me it's more rude not stopping and checking how a person's name is actually written. Like some people calling Yewande Yolande etc. If one's not dyslexic that is, take the time to show some respect and spell names correctly.

Do the newbies pick first?

If so, I think Francesca will pick Ovie as she said last night that Curtis obviously likes Maura better.

Belle will pick Anton
MM - Tommy
Anna - Jordan
Maura - Curtis
Joanna - Michael

Amber could really put a spanner in the works if she gets to choose before Joanna and picks Michael, but I don't think she will. If Ovie has already been chosen she's left with Marlon or Chris so I reckon she'd pick Chris.

Does anyone know how they decide the order in which the Islanders choose?

Both newbies are utterly boring. I want half the people in the villa out and replaced with the US cast.

Well to me it's more rude not stopping and checking how a person's name is actually written.

Yes because he will be devastated to find out some people on mumsnet have miserly his name.

You think Arabella is devastated too? Since tons of people call her other names?

On a lighter note, Marvin is really trying with Amber. Checking on her the next morning.

He needs to let it go. I know she is his only chance to stay in the villa but it's not going to happen. I dont get how Maura was interested in him at all.

Calling Arabella other names was done exacly to be rude to her

Do you guys think there is any chance of anyone so attractive as to turn heads to enter the villa at this stage of the game? I want someone great to come in, someone who EVERYONE will fancy!

I never know what to make of the heart monitor task. I can't help but think how excruciatingly bad I would be at it and how humiliating it is.

Saying that, I laughed out loud at Chris' forward roll and then revealing his white pants and tan marks and Curtis' costume and camp dancing.

Is it just me who is starting to get really bored of these people posting continuously about how it's dull, boring, tedious. It's stopping discussion. If you don't like the program, and find it dull boring or tedious, then stop watching it and constantly posting about how dull you find it.

How likely would it be that the reason Maura actually wants to couple up with Curtis is because she's not expected to sleep with him. I really think the producers asked her to be over the top sexual and she actually doesn't want to jump anyone.

I've rewatched last night episode with the dancing bit (yes, I waned to see it again...! ) and I've changed my mind; I think Chris and Curtis are my favourites because they didn't take it too seriously and had a laugh.

Yes I know Curtis bust out some proper shapes but I kind of love how he isn't afraid to not go down the typical 'manly' route. And I agree there is something undeniably attractive about a man that can really dance; probably because you know with that hip action he'll be good in other areas too...!

Chris knocked it out the park with the funny moves and making the girls laugh; to have the confidence to do that is quite attractive!

And Anton looked good; never appreciated what a nice back he had until now!

And Ambers face when Curtis started dancing is probably my highlight of the season so far

It seems strange what you are allowed to criticise on these threads...

• Can't criticise someone's spelling (not that I worry about it)
• Can't criticise the show and say it's dull

• Can criticise any aspect of a contestant's personality or looks, using whatever language you fancy!

I think Curtis is quite attractive, I actually think there is always something manly about a man who can dance. He also has a nice body without it being OTT, I don't find the extremely muscly men particularly attractive, in fact they are less manly IMO.

He is definitely more attractive since dumping Amy, she stifled him I felt, she was too full on and I think he felt totally trapped with it all, it wasn't ideal that he went along with it but I can totally understand how it happened. I know when I was younger this definitely happened to me. It's almost that she subconsciously convinced him they were in this amazing relationship. Obviously it is still his responsibility not to lead her on but I am just saying I do get it.

I genuinely think Maura likes him, apparently Lucie said in a interview after she left that Maura said she fancied him straight away but didn't want anyone to know because of Amy, Lucie therefore kept quiet.

I agree there is something undeniably attractive about a man that can really dance; probably because you know with that hip action he'll be good in other areas too...!

I was coming back on to pretty much say this. Maybe I was focusing too much on the hips but I certainly liked what I saw

Wouldn't the most amazing transformation be if Marvin suddenly metamorphoses into a confident hunk and lifts Amber up and sweeps her off his feet.

Just saying! Marking my told you so spot incase of a miracle

I'm just gonna say it (again), Curtis gives me flutters (mind you, so did Maura last night!)

Simple as, it gets my back up. I've had it done to me and I don't like it. Note I did not state this opinion aggressively, and the poster was free to their opinion also. However, I may also be more sensitive as the fucking 19 threads with nearly every cunting page speculating on Curtis's sexuality is tedious as imo.

Is that ok? Or am I going to get challenged with another "so what"?

It's a show based on sexual attraction so of course contestants sexuality is going to be discussed. Plenty of people saying they think he is gay, plenty saying he is not, no one falling out with each other over it as no one except him really knows whether he is or not. Maura's sexuality has been discussed as has the chemistry between other contestants.

Not sure what you think we should be discussing as in fairness it's not a particularly high brow show where they have intellectual discourses for us to agree or disagree with. It is really like hunger games for the fame hungry and beautiful.

If a show is made on the basis of looks and sex then these are obviously the things that are going to be discussed on a thread.

I agree that spelling is not something that should be picked on as it doesn't really matter and who cares if you get one of the contestants names wrong.

Also the one express thing that a gay man is not going to like is fanny. He may like a girls eyes, or personality, he may be attracted to her as a person, he may be good friends with her and like sleeping beside her but he is going going to find it difficult to keep up the front when it comes to interaction with the fanny. With someone like Maura he would be confronted with it much quicker than someone like Amy.

Molly and Tommy in the hideaway tonight! And cue the cheesy scenes featuring her teddy..

The armchair psychologist in me thinks it's interesting that Maura goes after unavailable men, not the ones she could have.

I actually really enjoyed Curtis King Julian’s dance I love someone who can laugh at themselves

I didnt think that he was laughing at himself. I think he was loving dancing properly.

And wearing glitter.

I like his looks, but his mannerisms and turn of phrase sometimes creep me out.

hunger games for the fame hungry and beautiful true!

But, that doesn't mean that people need to get abusive about contestant's personality, or looks, or behaviour. I'm not sure why grown ups would want to?

There's been some fun and frivolous chats, some interesting & insightful ones, and then some out-and-out nasty stuff. You can chat about the show without being like that!

In terms of discussing sexuality - historically, 'outing' has had a massive impact on gay people. I just don't think that, mental illness, neurological conditions etc should be idle entertainment.

Also the one express thing that a gay man is not going to like is fanny.

There is an interview with The Sun with Amy she says she lost 6lbs and couldn't eat as she was so heart broken - apparently producers had to stand over her to make her finish her meals or they wouldn't let her do any challenges.
She also said Maura used to take the piss out of Curtis behind his back
