MAFS UK - will it be opposites attract or opposites repel? Will the they fancy each others’ husbands and wives? What will the ixperts be like? Are they only in for the Insta-fame...?

Eyes down we’re nearly ready to start. 9.30pm Ch4.

She is really hard work! (I think David is far too nice for her.)

I mistakenly went on the Spoilers thread - thinking it was this one - a few minutes ago and the first post says exactly what happens. 😕 My stupid fault but gutted!

At this rate, Michelle & Owen will have 2.4 children by the end of the series! Good luck to them.

Shareen Is hard work. She just doesn’t seem to want to give David a chance. I’m left wondering why she signed up for the show if she wasn’t prepared to give a relationship a go?

Anyone that carries an everyday bag is a little iffy!

Couldn’t help but get Dirty John vibes from David from the start, but it really does feel like Shareen is being way over the top- she’s definitely got the Ick.

Lots of pp on Twitter are comparing Shareen to the woman who wanted a Polynisian ( was it Debbie?). Then Shareen herself popped up trying to defend herself!

Yes!!! That’s exactly who she reminds me of!!!

Oh I have found ye all. I have missed ye during my post MAFS Oz trash tv detox. Just watching episode two of UK one.

I'm getting a ridiculously high expectations of what a marriage is like vibes from Shareen. I think she will end up getting irritated with David.

Schaden I totally see the Troy thing too.

Just goes to show that life is a rich tapestry... I would LOVE a survival bag and would feel very safe being out and about with someone who’s that prepared, but it obviously makes Shareen feel very panicky. She reminds me a bit of my mum in that sense- she wouldn’t write a will for ages because she felt like it would be “inviting death” Whereas I’ve got a seatbelt cutter on my key ring and a first aid kit in the car!

Yes I wondered this too, but maybe she regretted her decision to take part.. I also thought his bag gift was thoughtful, and felt sorry for him. He does seem too nice for her IMO.
I did wonder if there was more to it and clever editing missed out parts though?

The bag seemed sensible for a weekend to the Lake District with lots of walking/hiking activities.

A bit anal maybe (as you'd have cameras around all the time) but sensible.

Well exactly, it seemed a very outdoorsy holiday.
Does anyone know if the couples had to put their own money towards it as they seemed to have a much nicer accommodation than the other two..

Shareen kept going on about the wedding day and being a bride. I feel like she really only wanted those things, and gave up the second things irked her.
They were getting on really well and fancied each other, so the basics were there. She's putting up walls that don't need to be there.
