Whatandwhen

"If you could repair all the the couples, having seen the full series, who would you pair together?"

Alphabetically (so no bias!)

Dan with Jess -obviously
Dino with Heidi
Ines with Sam -obviously
Lauren with Mark (or possibly Mick)
Lizzie with Mike
Mel with Mick (or possibly Mike or Mick)
Nic with Tamara

Obviously I'd leave Martha and Michael, Cam and Jules.

I would not have included Susie, Billy, Matt or Cyrell.

@Whatandwhen

Guys, I for those interested, Sam from MAFS has put up a highlight reel on his Instagram with info on what happened behind the scenes. Things like he returned from the funeral at the beginning, but the producers told him they weren’t filming for the next few days so to “relax”, so they put him up in a separate hotel and didn’t tell the others, he was out meeting mates and chilling as he’d been told they weren’t filming and they were actually filming Lizzie “looking for him”. And loads of stuff like that, it’s pretty interesting. They apparently threatened to sue him. He’s finally able to speak publicly about it

His Instagram handle is @whoissamm take a look

This is so good. I completely believe him

I could believe that.

Unfortunately I have not forgotten the shaming of Lizzie for being ‘larger than he’d like’ and the utter contempt on his face when he was ramming chocolate drenched strawberries down her mush.

No one can act as cunty as that - that was real in my book.

So there

Why is everyone bleating about Nic not having Cyrell's back? 1. They're not even together any more and 2. She does pretty well on her own, she doesn't need a man to support her!
I feel no need to have my man backing me up in an argument, whatever happened to aspiring to be strong independent women?

There is nowt wrong with being strong and independent.

And no, she really doesn’t need Nic’s back-up.

It would have been nice if he’d asked how she was (given that they remained friends if not partners) instead of asking after the arsehole who started the wine tipping.

I can’t speak for others but that is what I meant by backing her up. I wasn’t meaning that Nic should have got himself involved by shoving a pie in Marfa’s coupon, going ‘yay Cyrell’ whilst offering to hold her handbag and clearing the chairs so Cyrell can have a free run.

Nic has known how duplicitous and sneaky the insta twins have been and he hasn’t pipped up once to tell them they are out of line.

As said, Cyrell doesn’t need him to back her but it would have been decent of him to check she was alright.

Marfa got victim status and it was her who instigated it.

There. Finished bleating

I actually really liked her speech to Martha about being fake. It was spot on.

Wow just watched last night, honestly thought that

Cyrell is TV gold !!

Loved her speech to Marfaa , who was all I’m apologising but it’s really your fault pushing my buttons,
thought she was agreeing with her at first and then ...WHAM,
brilliant lines, shame you couldn’t get a plastic surgeon to fix your fake personality! ...we were cheering !

Maarfa just sat there knowing she had been beaten by the best,
honestly can they not have best overseas award or something for a BAFTA ! But only give it to Cyrell

You can quietly have someone's back though without screaming and shouting. And Nic never did. Unlike Michael. Although that makes me angry because he shouldn't be backing her at all!

As for Sam- since he's never been able to tell the difference between when he's lying and when he's not, I'm not sure I'd be jumping to believe anything he said!

Loved that cyrell could never remember Michaels name it was always Maria’s partner or Marfas husband until last night when she was determined speak to him! And I loved her pulling him up for defending her terrible behaviour , the shock on his face when she said she will dump you too!

I don’t think nic has it in him to scream and shout but it would have been lovely if he’d gone after Cyrell to see she was ok. She was the wronged one. Instead he asked if Martha was ok? Why???

I’m surprise Michael pipped up to be honest. He looked more ashamed than Marfa.

I could believe Sam’s version of events as I think the producers are capable of creating the drama

But I still think he is an utter lying endofbell and a sneery git in all other aspects.

I cannot forget that look of contempt to Lizzie - he could feed the 5000 with smashed crab and red wine and I’d still think he was Satan’s sperm.

Yes, we wondered if it really was Sam can we check the tattoos? he’s certainly changed physically and not in a good way but also he wouldn’t know the truth if it hit him, what a creep

I honestly didn’t recognise Sam when he reappeared.

Maybe because he hasn’t been swimming in Grecian 2000?

He looked totally different shaved and mousey. 🤷‍♀️

@SheldonesqueIsUnwell

So there

He said in his Instagram post that on the wedding day the producers don't stop interviewing you til they get the answers they want. And they were all "Wow I can't believe they matched you with such a uh girl, that's not on, aren't you pissed off?"

Which, like other posters, I can believe.

BUT it does not excuse him saying she was big and he'd have to get her running. I'm not buying that he had no choice. Absolute bullshit

And I totally agree with @SheldonesqueIsUnwell re Nic's spineless behaviour. He seems very much "anything for a quiet life" kinda guy

See james I know. The producers are holes and will manipulate.

But.l even with that this applies. And I think you think the same as me.

I’m going to quote that poster again who mentioned heather DuBrow.

‘They can’t edit in what you did not say.’ Or something like that.

If they are asking you to be a cahnt it is your choice to open your mouth and let your inner cahnt rumble.

He also shot her the worst mocking, disgusted, contemptuous look I’ve seen.

You can’t fake that.

The boy is a hole.

The end.

She dumped Melissa as a bridesmaid apparently as they drifted apart
I was shocked she asked her in the first place. I can't imagine them being friends at all.

Drifted apart my arse!!!

Disclaimer - I know nowt but I don’t buy it!!!!

Well Jules and Cam made a deal with a TV company to film their wedding. Everything was paid for and they got $75k too. I strongly suspect that as part of the terms of their TV contract, they had to have "celebrity" bridesmaids and groomsmen.

But how STUNNING do they look on their proper wedding day?

They look radiantly happy and she looks beautiful.

I must be a hideous auld cow though - I don’t like the dress. I preferred her Mafs wedding frock.

Sorry

I hope they show the wedding on our telly.

I will shut up about the frock 🤐

Promise.

Looks like Jess took the news of Jules and Cam's TV wedding deal well...
