Paige looks a bit like Scarlett Johansen. She isn’t giving that guy the time of day and his chat is a bit crap but it will be interesting to see if she changes tack once she knows he’s heir to and estate and lordship.

Sophie is stunning. Methadone Mick’s hairdo is hilarious.

The twins aren’t attractive at all. And one of them keeps kicking her teeth and it is supposed to be alluring I think. But it is not.

Just caught up with the thread ... I think Connor got arsey because he was expecting everyone to pat him on the back and think he was a cool lad but everyone was cringing😂 he didn't need to be so short with Sophie she had a point!
Callum is my fave boy 😍

peppinanna · 13/01/2020 09:08

And I also don't think the twins are great😬 dressing the same as well it's just weird
I hope Callum doesn't go for them over lovely Shaugna

Oysterbabe · 13/01/2020 09:16

So far I really like Callum, Mike, Siannese and Sophie. Connor is showing himself to be a twat on day 1.

Bluntness100 · 13/01/2020 09:17

I also think Connor got arsey because of the reaction to his threesome comment then saying immediately he thought Shauna had slept with 20 plus blokes. So he took it out the female, I can't recall her name.

Definite red flag in a bloke, he was embarrassed so took it out on her. She also did that thing of immediately trying to soothe him by stroking his arm etc, instead of telling him to fuck off, or more realistically giving him the side eye then ignoring him.

StrikeAPoseTake2 · 13/01/2020 10:20

Anyone agree that the first release pictures you get of the line up make the person look completely different and usually unattractive?

Miss Fudge for example (can't spell her first name)... the first release pic shows someone who looks a bit gaunt and pale, with ridiculously long black hair.

In real life she has olive skin, beautiful eyes and eyebrows, a pretty face... I just don't understand it.

They did the same to Leanne. Her figure looks all distorted in her picture

peanutfoldover · 13/01/2020 11:26

@StrikeAPoseTake2 yes definitely! I thought the same of Maura who looked a bit plain/average in the promo pictures but absolutely stunning in real life.

I also though that about Miss Fudge (shanice? Shaugnice??). Her photo made her look a bit ill!! But last night you can see she has real natural beauty. I think she may become a favourite with the public, although she will come under fire for her accent. I'm from the West Country though, and I absolutely love hearing it!!

Oysterbabe · 13/01/2020 11:35

Is the Bristolian girl Siannese? I really like her already, she seems very sweet and is beautiful.

PumpkinP · 13/01/2020 12:08

I agree with the comments, I thought that miss fudge looked very odd in the promo pic, but irl she’s stunning.

SavageBeauty73 · 13/01/2020 12:48

@HollysTeflonSeptum Sophie's accent is dreadful! I'm from North London and cringed a lot.

MurrayTheMonk · 13/01/2020 13:11

Dying at 'Connor could eat an apple through a letterbox' Grin
Fudge has got an accent in her first name somewhere I think 🤷🏽‍♀️

Oysterbabe · 13/01/2020 13:40

I just saw a pic of the twins from a few years ago when they were more natural and they look a lot more attractive.

bringbacksideburns · 13/01/2020 13:48

They look so much better there! Whats this obsession with really crap eyelashes stuck on that some girls have? It's like the drag queen look. Will be interesting to see if they go natural. They are much more natural looking in Australia LI.

StrikeAPoseTake2 · 13/01/2020 14:05

I think Australia have a higher amount of natural beauty in their programme because of the heat. I'd suspect it's really not convenient to have a face full of Make up constantly in Aussie heat

So they're more use to just keeping it lower key

Jitterbugger · 13/01/2020 14:52

Mike and Nas are both best looking and best personality out of the men. They both seem like really good fun. Callum is good looking but not much to say about him other than that. Ollie...just no. I don't like Connor at all- his teeth and hair look ridiculous, and his hissy fit at Sophie about her making digs at him was a red flag to me that he's going to be a complete tool.

The women are harder personality wise as they've all been much more guarded. I like Sophie and Fudge so far, and they're both gorgeous as well. Leanne is beautiful but very quiet so far so it's hard to gauge what she's like, likewise Paige. Not keen on Shauna (however you spell it) and I think she's going to be the nasty bitchy one of the group. She also seems a lot older than 25.

The twins could go either way, I'm not sure yet- they may be great once they've dropped the "we're twins, we do everything together" thing, or they may end up being the boring girls of the series that no one wants to date and the don't do much.

Sammi38 · 13/01/2020 15:06

I just can’t get past the animal trophy hunting! If it’s true I’m surprised Ollie is allowed to stay.

Wrongdissection · 13/01/2020 15:19

Just watched First Look and the twins are so nasal. They’re talking as though they need to blow their nose. And yes to them looking a lot prettier in that redhead pic.

Zampa · 13/01/2020 15:37

Ooh, I forgot about the app. Must download now.

Think the twins look like Isla Fisher in that photo.

Who kept on saying "100%" last night? Siannîse? Very annoying.

Zampa · 13/01/2020 15:40

Sorry, Siânnise ... Why can't the girls be called Amelia or Grace?!

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 13/01/2020 15:40

Whenever I see Siannesse's name written down, I go to call her Viennesse Confused

TitsInAbsentia · 13/01/2020 15:49

Or just fudgey....

TitsInAbsentia · 13/01/2020 15:54

So, I'm all caught up...opening thoughts:

I just wanted one, just ONE of the girls to walk in wearing flats or flip flops…I can’t bear those stupid shoes most of them are wearing…anyways, looking forward to the make up coming orf.

Love the way at the start they were like ooh let’s do a VT of everyone leaving theirs jobs? Yeah! Oh, what about Ollie though?....Anyways, he reminds me of George from last year who didn’t last very long. And if all the news is right then the same is going to be said of Ollie!

Why weren’t the girls picking the boys this year, why is it always the same start? Did the producers just think it would be pointless as the boys would step forward for everyone?

Surprised to hear that Connor’s Thai teeth have worked wonders for him….er, in what way? I’d already seen the meth mick comments before watching but they are spot on!

The twins are far less special than the original girls at first glance. Plus for some weird reason they put me in mind of Lois from Family Guy (even though she has short red hair!). The dresses they are wearing tonight looked way too small for them (from the clip), really unflattering.

I’m hoping that Callum was saying he had no preference of twin was because he was sticking with Paige. Although going by first look could be some interesting fisticuffs with the twins both wanting the same person (may that be the case and not just the edit).

So far the only girl I like is Miss Fudge (Siannese I think…but I prefer Miss Fudge). I love her more natural look (always so nice to not see lip filler).

User43742 · 13/01/2020 16:24

Can I join in, so glad to have it back on.

Connor reminded me of Jim Carey in dumb and dumber and it was a red flag the way he spoke to Sophie. Hope Ollie goes out quickly. I think both Sophie and leanne are really beautiful girls but don’t think any of the boys are attractive.
I’m sure my opinion will change as the show goes on and we get to know them all better.

Oysterbabe · 13/01/2020 16:35

I do fancy Mike, I've always had a thing for police officers though.

desperatehousewife21 · 13/01/2020 16:45

Connors hair is not flattering, bit like a bowl cut!

The bit at the start when they were coupling you and Sophie said ‘they’re all model types’ and Laura said ‘err yeah it’s Love Island!’ Like whyyyy do they all need to be model types?? Don’t they get it? The public want to see normal people!

Ollie won’t last 5 mins.

The twins are DULL, hope the guys see past the looks they all bang on about personality but then fall over themselves when I pumped up blonde with fake lips/ teeth/ eyelashes etc comes in.
