Francesca, Harley, and Chris are sooo boring. Anton is great and I wish he'd be stronger about his views as he's usually spot on.

Agree that MM will find Tommy so annoying very soon, once they're on the outside and the full extent of his ineptitude at domestic tasks is laid bare.

SouthWestmom · 19/07/2019 09:00

I like Francesca - I think not being in a couple is working against her. Could not believe Chris (?) trying Harlee after India yesterday. That was

Unless this is massively edited to skew things I can't see how Michael and Amber is a good thing.

Bandara · 19/07/2019 09:12

Molly and Tommy getting no air time.

Who is still in it from the originals?
Anna
Amber
Tommy
Anton

I think the producers want michael and amber to get back together because they were more popular than michael and joanna

Sagradafamiliar · 19/07/2019 09:16

Slipper that's just not true. I'm unsure as to why you would even bring up alleged racism only to deny it ever happened but hey, I'm not goady so I wouldn't understand.

I think Amber is more at risk of 'mugging herself off' if she takes back Michael and that's the one thing which might make her reconsider and choose Greg.

BrienneofTarthILoveYou · 19/07/2019 09:21

Tommy wasn't an original - he came in separately with Curtis (although it was only a day or two later I think).

BrienneofTarthILoveYou · 19/07/2019 09:22

I think only Amber, Anton, Michael and Anna are originals. Hard to remember that far back!

laylabella · 19/07/2019 09:23

I think tommy and Curtis came in on the same night as the originals

carmenbea · 19/07/2019 09:24

@Bandara I agree. There would be zero drama if it wasn't for the Michael and Amber stuff. Its not good viewing for me personally it sets an awful example to young girls.

BrienneofTarthILoveYou · 19/07/2019 09:24

They definitely came in together but separately from the other boys but maybe you're right and it was on the same night.

BrienneofTarthILoveYou · 19/07/2019 09:29

Just looked on the LI app - looks like there were 5 girls originally (Lucie, Amy, Anna, Amber and Yewande) and 5 boys (the one who was kicked out, the one evicted first, Michael, Anton and Joe).

SammyElla · 19/07/2019 09:36

Curtis and Tommy came in on the evening of the same day I think PP is saying. So literally a couple hours after the "originals"

Pinkiii · 19/07/2019 09:36

Are they not doing the family thing this year? It would be great if they did and Ambers family can tell her exactly what is going on.

MargoLovebutter · 19/07/2019 09:36

I enjoyed last night's show. The Bob The Builder challenge made me laugh a lot. Oh, Tommy - coke in pants - so not a good idea. Not sure MM was at all happy about the fireman's lift thing. Let's face it no woman really wants her arse hanging over someone's shoulder looking huge to everyone behind her.

Greg is a super cool dude. If Amber doesn't pick him tonight, I may wake the entire neighbourhood shouting at the TV.

Not sure about Ovie playing it all bashful with India - what's that about?

Chris is funny and original BUT I'd definitely want to be friends with him, rather than rip his clothes off and get down & dirty. He's the guy at work that you love to bits like your little brother.

Fucking lip fillers! They make all the girls who've had them look slightly ridiculous but are absolutely the worst on poor Harlee. I am transfixed every time she gets camera time.

SharedBluePlanet · 19/07/2019 09:48

I was almost crying laughing when Tommy poured the coke down his pants, he is very endearing I think in a Labrador Kind of way. His round was hilarious nearly dropping MM face first into that cement.

I fear she is already tired of him though- you can often see that look on her face as though she is thinking how on earth will she extract herself from this when they get out.

AuntieStella · 19/07/2019 09:49

The other original boys were Callum (first uncoupled to have to go) and Sharif

(I've been watching fromthe start as well, because I only started watching part way through. Tommy and Curtis arrived the first evening. MollyMae a couple of days later.

Shoxfordian · 19/07/2019 09:56

I hope Amber chooses Greg at the recoupling. Michael's treated her like an option not a priority. I don't even think he would have said anything to Amber if Joanna was still there.

Bandara · 19/07/2019 10:04

What love island has definitely taught me about relationships: if someone doesn't want you let then go, no point chasing them. Someone better will come.
Eg.
Anna didnt want Ovie - now he is happy with India
Michael didnt want Amber - Greg is much nicer to her

Bellendejour · 19/07/2019 10:14

MM’s arse looked amazing not huge! reflects fondly on long lost body of yesteryear

She really does seem bored of Tommy - I wonder if Greg is more her ‘complete package’. But she’ll have to see it out to the end, I feel like it’s that grim determination face we’re seeing. Ugh, I couldn’t be doing with that.

Anton was really spot on last night! So glad he didn’t collude with Michael’s gaslighting bullshit, pointing out that he’d never said anything negative about Joanna while she was here and exactly what she needed to get from Michael.

Anton/Belle might be my fave couple atm. Did not see that happening!

SharedBluePlanet · 19/07/2019 10:19

Greg is like the perfect man, attractive, charming, athletic, educated and a beautiful accent. I did think he would be right up MM's street but she has nailed her colours to Tommy at this point.

Bluntness100 · 19/07/2019 10:24

I think molly and tommy just aren't getting any screen time, so it's misleading, but opens the field up a bit for who will win. It's difficult when you couple up so early as when there is lots of other drama then that takes precedence over what they show.

I think amber really wants to pick Michael, but her dilemma is he's treated her like shit publicly and she knows how it will look if she does. So it's heart over head for her. Her head is saying she shouldn't. But her heart really wants to say yes.

unique1986 · 19/07/2019 10:45

Love Island has taught me all men can be shits and all women can be bitches.
🤔

Bandara · 19/07/2019 10:54

Except Greg and Ovie - they havent been shits.
The majority of men can be shits - hold out for the good ones who treat you right

RonnieScotts · 19/07/2019 11:20

The impression I got from Michael's conversation with Amber was that she didn't believe a word he was saying and saw straight through him.

I'm watching with my teenage DD and I'm really hoping amber chooses Greg and they work. It would be a valuable lesson for DD that you don't need to put up with being treated badly, hold out for a good guy. Team Greg!

SlipperOrchid · 19/07/2019 11:34

She really does seem bored of Tommy - I wonder if Greg is more her ‘complete package’.

But is she Greg's???

I find the whole concept of LI so odd. Unless someone is really choosy (e.g. Alex from last year), they are mostly happy to couple up with anyone who will have them. I know its the point of the show. A previous poster said that she would like Amber to choose Greg to teach her daughter that men shouldn't treat women like that and while I understand why she said that, I think because of the whole set up of LI, there is very little about it that is a good example to any younger viewers. Is there a recommended age for viewing it? I know its on after 9pm but I guess there are nine and ten year olds watching it too?

Louise0701 · 19/07/2019 11:35

I don’t really like Anton or Belle that much. Definitely wouldn’t vote for them to win, but don’t know who I would. Go on MM just tell Greg you like him just for some entertainment and drama. Although poor Tommy would be heart broken and I couldn't watch :(
