LOVE ISLAND THREAD 20 - which equivalates to 38 threads on the outside ❤️🏖

Have at it!

Right so if I fancy someone they are obligated not to be in any way physical with anyone while I’m there or I get to have a go at them?

I think it would have been different if she’d said ‘so the massage - seems like you kind of like Maura, is that the case?’ as a fair enough point but not DO NOT GIVE MASSAGES YOU’RE MY WIFE NOW. She’s the one who chose someone already in the beginnings of a thing.

But I’m assuming this was all prompted by the producers anyway.

How old is Francesca?

Curtis saying he eqnrs to get to know them both is just a load of shit

He's knows.maura for what..5 or 6 weeks? You'd know in that time if you were interested or not.

I can see Maura is pretty but she also kind of reminds me of "the grey" alien! And i think as aoon as she opened her mouth all attraction was lost!

I found the whole “so I know I said you CAN get to know Maura, BUT”

Isn’t this the exact same thing Joe got so much abuse for.... who is she to say whether he can or cannot do anything? She’s been there 48 hours and I think it should’ve rang alarm bells. He definitely shouldn’t of apologised.... not like she’s his half girlfriend or anything 😳
I can’t warm to Francesca or Chris. I think it’s clear Curtis is sexually attracted to Maura. I didn’t see it as him flinching, I saw it as him being embarrassed about the quite obvious physical reaction to her touch he was about to develop.......

Can we not use phrases like dog rough please that’s really unpleasant and unnecessary.

I like Francesca and Chris I think they are both quite witty and intelligent. Much needed. In sharp contrast Joanna...I did with double take with that backpack comment. Francesca didn't call Curtis out on the massage as such just on the quite sexualised way he gave the massage. She also didn't blame Maura. I think she will hold Curtis to account and not allow him to keep dithering so good on her.

@Bellendejour sorry. I should have said she's a rough as a badger.

See for me, when Maura speaks, she is doubly attractive. It's when her glorious personality comes tumbling out. She has a sharp wit and sense of humour. She has exponentially more personality than anyone else in there. Matched only by Ovie

Exactly, major red flag there Francesca!

And for those saying Curtis should know already - I disagree. Isn't it like if you were to develop feelings for a friend, wouldn't you date them to 'get to know them better' in that capacity? It's the same kind of thing IMO

@ooooohbetty you can't say anything anti Maura on this thread as everyone loves her and she can do no wrong .... for what it's worth I agree with you!!!!

Bold fail 🙄

If Curtis fancied Maura he would have told her by now. He doesn't though it's painfully obvious he cringes whenever she speaks. I know people love Maura but ffs he is clearly terrified of her.

I'm so ready for it to finish now. Feel like I have to see it through but it really is an awful series.

You know it can finish much earlier? Just change channel?

Praying that Joanna and Michael are the least popular couple and get to choose to leave together or split and stay. They did that in previous series. I really want Michael to admit he made a mistake and try and win Amber back and for her to totally shut him down. Either way, some drama is needed that isn't staged phone number on receipt snoozefest and this would be a good way to get it.

Was curious what Enthicity Joanna was.
Both her parents are Greek Cypriot.

@cherylberyls I don’t mind people criticising Maura I just don’t like using the word dog about/in the context of other women.

@ooooohbetty for some reason badger is slightly less triggering 🐶🐼🦊 (composite badger emoji)

I know Maura is v full on and Marmite and everyone is free to not like her/question some of her behaviour. I just don’t want the thread to veer into Fail territory.

END OF SERIOUS POST KLAXON

Who does everyone want to win currently?

I say in order:

1. Amber and Ovie
2. Belle and Anton
3. Maura on her own having some self fun in the hideaway
4. Anton and Belle

I actually like MM but find her and Tommy bluergh/fast forwardworthy

I haven't seen any comments on mauras bitchiness that we saw last night and night before. Find that weird.
She's going on about Francesca hair flicks, acting it out whilst Francesca is sitting very close. It's a but bullyish.
Comments about how she couldn't flirt any harder etc as if it's not the aim of the game.

We all know Curtis and Maura is a set up makes it worse!

Maura on her own having some self fun in the hideaway??🤣

What did you mean by that @Bellendejour 😂

Hmm I’ve put Belle and Anton in twice somehow

@islandlove Would be so good if she swore off twatty men and just had some me time - she is owed a hideaway stay after all

Amber and Ovie to win OR Maura with whoever (probably Curtis). More than anything I hope Michael and Joanna leave tomorrow! Will it be bottom 2 favourites announced and islanders have the final say? I reckon they'd choose Michael and Joanna to go over Anna and Jordan

@Whisky2014 I said we were getting the shitty side of Maura atm and poor Chris for having to deal with it. As I said, she needs to bit a bit more like Amber who is at least having a laugh about it all with Ovie.

I agree, she’s being bitchy and it’s not nice to watch, and Curtis is NOT WORTH IT.

But I still have time for Maura, she just needs to snap out of this nonsense.

forces self to do something else with day

Whisky I think I commented on Maura and Molly-Mae bitching about Francesca. The way she's being now is actually making me rapidly go off her. She seems very catty and quite spiteful. Francesca is quite within her rights to flirt with Curtis, she is after all coupled up with him and it's the name of the game. But apparently only Maura gets to flirt or interact with the man she likes.

Sometimes I like her, she can speak sense and be funny, but I'm seeing more of her I dislike as time goes on.

I'm wondering if Curtis is proving popular because he's so safe and a 'gentleman'. There'll be no pressure or expectation from him to do anything more than maybe kiss.

Right now I'd love the top two to be, Anton and Belle as winners; Ovie and Amber as runners-up.

I still love Anton, Belle is massively growing on me (plus I love her dad) and I'm liking Amber again. I think she's quite a complex woman, and ultimately she's handled the situation with Michael really well. Ovie is just everything! I want an Ovie in my life.
