Oooo thank you @dimples76 I will give that a go 👍

mrstea301 · 17/01/2021 10:22

I know that it will all be scripted but I’m loving the drama!

Ines is a nasty piece of work, when the ixperts asked about her feeling responsible and she was all “hmmm.... responsible “ it just made me feel like she’s probably been a horrible person through her life that could argue circles round everyone and never take the blame for anything!

LOVE jules and cam!

Love Heidi, but there’s no way Mike will last long term, which is probably why he’s single at 44. He’s all surface and no depth. She’s lovely though.

Ning and Mark, I’m a bit meh about. I would have walked away from her at the wedding with the comments she was making, nerves or not. And I don’t really think you should be coming into the process with children to be honest, it’s not really fair on anyone.

Nic and Cyrell both just seem so young to me! I feel cyrell is hiding behind the trust thing as well as an excuse for behaving childishly.

Dino and Melissa are just poles apart. I feel he’s a bit much tho, he tried to get engaged in feb / March, got knocked back and then is on this show later that year? Would love to hear from his ex. I also feel he’s a bit cult-ish!!

Sam and Lizzie don’t have a hope in hell. I actually think he was doing the right thing in choosing to leave, but she was obvs told to stay by the producers. It’s a shame really as when she was apologising to him she was obviously hoping he would kiss her and it would be all love hearts and romance!

Lauren and Matthew - can’t wait to see her next bombshell, but I feel like she’s been done dirty by the producers, she’s basically been matched with Matthew as an emotional support which isn’t really fair. Also, can Matthew respond to any question in any different way apart from being anxious?! I feel he’s much more calculated than he would let on. This has probably been a good way to lose his virginity (if he actually was a virgin) without really having to put any emotional effort in - he’s basically been provided with a partner who he’s been told is a match for him. I saw an advert for what’s coming up from him and I’m already furious about it!! I also don’t believe he’s so nervous and was able to sing at the wedding? And he’s a videographer, would that not include an element of sociability? He would have you believe he’s been hiding away from the world for his entire life!!

Jess and mick - appear to be getting on well despite having nothing in common. Very telling that she didn’t answer the Instagram question!!

Phew, I’ve got a lot of thoughts lol!!

Bettina500 · 17/01/2021 10:53

I saw an advert too that played Lauren saying "so you used me to lose your virginity." (Or words to that effect.)
He gives me the creeps.

SheldonesqueIsUnwell · 17/01/2021 11:08

I know that a lot of these programmes have ‘help’ for dramatic purposes. The likes of towie/mic spring to mind.

But if they are scripted, who on Earth
Would allow themselves to be portrayed in such a negative light - even for the pot of gold? To have that follow you for ever more as your ‘real’ self? No thanks.

I’m going to enjoy it for what it is Wink

I’m about 4 episodes behind but I saw that clip too bettina. That’ll be a conversation to cringe at.

I’m wondering if the definiti

Think that's a spoiler on Lauren as we haven't seen 2 of those claims yet.

ooooh, I watched the episode I thought you were talking about? I have reported my post, and apologise if I watched the wrong one :(
burnoutbabe · 17/01/2021 11:59

Fridays one showed a preview showing Lauren about to reveal more about her background than the lesbian time and I guessed it was exactly what you said but not seen her actually confirm what it was.

Unless I missed one!

sorry again - I hate spoilers, so hope I haven't ruined it for you, it was a genuine mistake. Thankfully the post was removed almost immediately :)
burnoutbabe · 17/01/2021 12:17

Not at all spoiled it for me, just to be aware for people who are watching not at e4 pace that they could easily post spoilers as don't know exactly where rest of us are.

Big bird and joker made me laugh too.

These aren't legal weddings are they? Unlike uk/USA.

We haven't yet had the issue of distance which always crops up with Australia due to huge country. USA at least does it within a specific city.

HeartZone · 17/01/2021 12:26

🤦‍♀️ oh no! I just read on your post Lizzie expecting and jumped to the wrong conclusion - thankfully!

yeah, totally. I'm still not sure how I've got it wrong, as I watched that scene last night Confused
happinessischocolate · 17/01/2021 12:57

@SpanishFly There wasn't an episode on E4 last night?

"....just to be aware for people who are watching not at e4 pace that they could easily post spoilers as don't know exactly where rest of us are."

I don't think we can possibly know which episode anyone is up to so I think 'no spoilers' means nothing that has not been shown on national TV up to the point you are posting. I often watch the current episode on catch up so I know if I go on the thread at 7.31 someone might have posted something from that night's episode.

I have watched some in advance on line but I try and make sure I never post anything that's not been on TV.

So if anyone notices any genuine spoilers you can post about it and it can be removed.

Hope that makes sense, otherwise we can't discuss for fear someone has not yet seen that bit.

And loving the thread so thank you all!

SheldonesqueIsUnwell · 17/01/2021 14:04

Me too! I’ve been reading the thread and so am looking forward to actually watching it.

I’m mafsing it through your eyes while on shift and I’m loving it!!! 🥰

burnoutbabe · 17/01/2021 14:10

yes that is what i meant - E4 has shown up to Episode 10 (its one a night, starting on a Monday).

so if you are watching off that link posted earlier in the thread, you may well be ahead of everyone else. So best to be very careful when posting.

If you are watching on e4, but not at 7.30 on E4 each night, then you just need to be careful to not read further ahead in the thread than your episode, else you WILL BE SPOILED. but you can do that based on date/time of postings.

Maybe we should stick an "Episode 10/etc" in the post when we start discussing the new days episode (ie 7.30 onwards each night)

rc22 · 17/01/2021 14:41

I love watching this! Ines is a complete nightmare but I get the feeling the whole thing with Sam is a bit engineered by the producers to be like the whole Tracey, Dean and Davina thing last time around. Matthew reminds me of Mark Zuckerberg who started Facebook!!

Does anyone know if anyone from any of the previous seasons has ever stayed together long term?

RuggeryBuggery · 17/01/2021 14:56

I think @Italiangreyhound said upthread it was one from all the Australian series? That’s pretty bad going 😂

RuggeryBuggery · 17/01/2021 15:00

I don’t like the bits that feel overly fabricated - I find some of Innes’ comments amusing like when she was looking at the wedding photo saying how great she looked 😂
But just think she’s playing a part maybe for notoriety afterwards?

I also don’t like it when people like Bronson (who I generally like) make comments like they want to work at it ‘as that’s what marriage is about’ etc etc. As if there is any chance that he thinks he’ll end up with Innes! Would find it more believable if he said he wanted to stay in to learn more about himself, and relationships, or because he thinks they can have some fun together or whatever.
And Matt....
So far he just seems really hard work conversationally. Not just with Lauren (“Loz” - what a horrendous nickname sorry 😂) but with others at the dinner party too.
And there is definitely something slightly robotic about his expressions.
Did he have a best man or any male friends at his wedding? Will be interested if they do a homestay and if he has a social circle

burnoutbabe · 17/01/2021 15:03

does that mean that non poly John and the blonde lady from last season split up? shame on that one, but they did live far apart. i imagine there more a quite fading out rather than restraining orders etc from ginger lady and her chap

Yeah, non polynesian John and Mel split up but remained friends
rc22 · 17/01/2021 15:49

@burnoutbabe I think John and Deborah parted amicably as neither them wanted to move nearer to the other although I think they lived relatively close to each other as Australia goes. That's part of what annoys me about the programme though. Why would you put yourself up for it if you're not willing to move to continue with the 'marriage?'

What also seemed fake at the last dinner party was the 'experts' pretending they didn't already know Sam had left before the honeymoon. Surely the production team must have told them.

Also, why would the experts continue to bother when they have such a massive failure rate? And why would people continue to go on when they know that the relationship is likely not to work out? Because, they're not interested in the relationship and just want to get on the telly and become reality stars Grin

Anyway, I'm spoiling it for myself now. I must stop over thinking it and continue to enjoy it for the trashy entertainment it is!!
