Thumbface and the Numbfaces - Have you sneak-peeked? "Just the one, I can resist, I am strong.” NO! DON'T LOOK, ETHEL! Too late . . . 10 hours later your eyelids are begging for mercy

[SchadenfreudePersonified]

Thanks to MissMarplesHandbag for the "Just the one . . . "inspiration for the thread title, and to whichever wonderful soul suggested "The Numbfaces" as a description for his harem.

Agree with that analysis.

Sean is a total shit to sleep with Blair for the first time, get her to say she has feelings for him and then say he has none for her. I think he’s just on it for the TV exposure.

I agree - a nice bossy "Home Counties" type, a little bit older than him - but sadly she's unlikely to be a "Barbie" - more an "Audrey Forbes-Hamilton"

Like for example... Ashley’s mum?!

I’ve just been reading a thread in Relationships and had to close it when several people started saying, He hasn’t got your back

This programme is ruining me.

Ryan has such integrity and DaviNA is completely devoid of all empathy and lives her own version of the world. People are toys to her.

Charlene and Pat are my favourite couple- mostly because I love her.

I probably need to look into my crystal ball and come up with some halfway predictions!

HELLO! I have finally found my people! So excited to find a MAFS thread. This morning I am mostly still giggling to myself about Troy’s attempts to make scrambled eggs, including melting Camembert thinking it was butter (wtf?) and then flinging the cremated Camembert out the window.
Literally had tears running down my face!

YES!!!

And didn't he come across as really fancying her?

Now - what are we going to do about Ashley's dad, because I can see him getting in the way, here . . .

Yes, the egg cooking was embarrassing. Where were Troy and Ashley having that conversation? Next to a public toilet? Or a bus shelter?

"Davina just likes a challenge doesn't she. When Ryan was interested she was bored, now he's ignoring her she can't get enough of it."

100%. She wants what she can't have.

That camembert incident had me reeling - I'd missed that it was camembert, but I saw it in the pan and he was saying something like "I think this may be butter", and I was shouting

"It's CHEESE for heaven's sake!
"It's got a RIND on!
What are you DOING!"

What does he usually eat? Does he live on tuna directly from the tin? Is this why he eats from the tine - because he has NO IDEA WHATSOEVER how to even heat a tin of soup?

Ugh - thanks for reminding me of the tuna incident!

Justin seems to have just come on this programme to get advertising for his ive cream. He lives and breathes ice cream. He’s like Mr bloody Whippy!

Davina sees herself as some unresistable siren that men can’t resist, when actually she’s just been throwing herself at Dean the twat and has now had two knock backs. She thinks she’ll woo Ryan round (I think she wants to face Dim Tracey and Dean with a man rather than on her own to save face). I totally admire Ryan for his sense. “Heck no I’m done” probably the most sensible thing muttered on MAFS.

Nasser - definitely gay, even if he doesn’t know it yet. I’ve so many gay friends just like him!

He even has Mr Whippy hair.

Troy is quite something. How does he not know the difference between Camembert and butter when it is in his own fridge? Did he actually purchase it not knowing what it was?

My phone has forced a couple of gobsmacking relationship spoilers on me about this season’s people which I will refrain from mentioning. I think I can safely mention this, though: since the series ended, Justin has been disqualified from acting as a director of a company by the Australian regulator:

That’s interesting. I think the series 5 was filmed in 2018 so must have been filmed in the time period leading up to this . Which presumably indicates why he sold his boat , hired the one to take him to the wedding plus the car , I guess .

It also explains why he’s desperate for the 200 $ a day . And the TV exposure .

I wondered about that . I think it was just outside a public toilet . Could they have arranged to meet there ? Very odd .

Why should I be the only one to suffer flashbacks?

I knew it!

I bliddy KNEW it!

I knew he must be on the verge of bankruptcy/ legal action/ wife stopping parental access/ something else big and unmentionable.

What a complete t*sser!

Carly - run for the hills!

Didn't he chase after her and they stopped there to talk? I loved his "come to me, Ashley" moments. He's obviously watched one too many romcoms and books, and thinks that's how you deal with an argument 🤣

That also explains why his premises were deserted. I wondered how he could run an international business with no staff.

Do we think Troy's mother does his shopping, so he actually has no idea what he has in the fridge? Although how can anyone confuse camembert for butter - the fucking colour is different for a start!

Yes yes! Justin IS Mr Whippy! I shall call him that from now on. Thank you!

We HAD to have scrambled eggs on toast for lunch today. It was delicious.

We had cheese and biscuits. It was cheese, I checked!

My Dh and I were wondering if the Oscars of the ice cream world were called ‘The Cornettos’ - I hope so.

The whole argument between Ashley and Troy was so odd, Troy was behaving as if he was reading words from a script. There was a massive disconnect between his words and actions. It’s like he is constantly saying what he thinks people should say, but actually there is no actual substance.....

The Cornettos! Love that!
I'm singing 'Just one Cornetto, give it to... Justin, he needs it more than me clearly'!

Had scrambled eggs today for lunch in honour of Troy!
