I thought she was ok, I've never seen her in anything before.
I never knew clumpy lashes were a thing either. If mine go like that it's time to throw my mascara away.

Thanks for the heads up - I'd missed that this was starting again. When I've finished Below Decks I'll have something else to binge.

SchadenfreudePersonified · 21/04/2021 17:56

Hooray!

I enjoyed Glow-Up

Below Decks?

What is this?

What side and when?

Is it on catch-up?

3CCC · 21/04/2021 21:18

So glad this is back there's another thread going but this looks the more mn as you watch thread

Who's the new presenter

@SchadenfreudePersonified Below deck is the best reality tv show. It's on Netflix bad it's about people who work on a super yacht and deal with guests demands and the drama of living on a boat with strangers for 2 months. Well worth a look

Mumdiva99 · 21/04/2021 21:35

@SchadenfreudePersonified there are also a few series on Prime which come off in the next day or so, and Below Decks Mediterranean has a couple of series on E4. Then I'm going to have to pay to see the ones I've missed. I love it because it's fly on the wall, plus boats plus food!!

SchadenfreudePersonified · 21/04/2021 22:41

Thanks Mumdiva - I'll give it a go.

WouldBeGood · 23/04/2021 08:00

I love Glow Up, and glad to see it back.

Clumpy lashes had passed me by too, but I am old!

Absolutely loved Dolli.

I'm convinced this was filmed pre pandemic and has been in the can for over a year. I can't see how it was able to be filmed otherwise.

I'm sure I wore a couple of masks being worn

But I was wondering how SD was achieved. Although it could be like the jewellery show which is airing currently. Where I reckon they started filming pre pandemic had to stop then resumed in the autumn time.

ILookAtTheFloor · 24/04/2021 18:53

Well I was wrong, it was filmed during the pandemic with strict protocols according to this article...

Those clumpy lashes looked awful! Must be my age Blush

IntermittentParps · 26/04/2021 16:59

And the final challenge, I had no idea a clumpy lash was a thing (admit being old and out of touch) I thought it was the accident we've all had with bad/old mascara.

Exactly my thoughts Grin
Maya J is a bit vacuous IMO. Bring back Stacey! I like Val though. I warmed to her last series when she told a little story about the lights going off when she was on the loo.
Love the guy who said his features were 'off centre' and did his own make-up to accentuate that. I actually think he's beautiful.
The right person went; I don't think she would have had much to contribute.

PinkDaydreams · 27/04/2021 09:33

Is it today a new episode goes on?

WouldBeGood · 27/04/2021 09:38

Yes @PinkDaydreams: 11.05pm so I’ll be recording it for tomorrow as I’m old 😃

3CCC · 27/04/2021 10:01

Wish it was on at an earlier time

I know it's to encourage you to watch on iplayer etc. But when there's nothing much else on

PinkDaydreams · 27/04/2021 10:07

Oh how annoying! I was hoping it was on today

Couchpotato3 · 27/04/2021 10:08

I bloody love Glow Up. Ding Dong!! The judges are brilliant. They do not pull their punches.

PinkDaydreams · 27/04/2021 19:50

Second episode is now on the Iplayer!

jay55 · 27/04/2021 21:13

Thanks Pink.

I think Xavi's black and white was brilliant. Getting that spotlight looks was really clever.

VonWeasel · 27/04/2021 21:41

Loving Glow Up minus Stacey Dooley! Her voice is like nails being dragged down a blackboard to me so Maya Juma a vast improvement.

Szyz2020 · 28/04/2021 08:59

(SPOILER ALERT for 27/04 episode)

Disappointed in last nights result. Though Elliott didn’t perform well I don’t think either Samah or Ryley deserve to be there. But Val was right about the judging criteria - I think Dom was gutted!
Val has grown on me. I wish Dom wouldn’t do that silly action when he pretend-shouts “bring in the models”. Perhaps it’s supposed to be his thing like Val has Ding Dong!

jay55 · 28/04/2021 09:14

It was the right decision, but such a shame as last week he showed so much potential. I love that they went with the rules and not the heart though.

I think I was more disappointed in Dolli having a bad round, as what she did was similar to Samah's from last week and just as poorly done.

SchadenfreudePersonified · 28/04/2021 11:51

Val has grown on me.

On me, too - I really disliked her on the previous two seasons, but so far I think she has mellowed.

Though Elliott didn’t perform well

thought he was very poor all the way through - but I did feel sorry for him on his "Pse" challenge, because I thought his model was the most arrogant, humourless po-faced tw*t! It must be really difficult making up someone who is twisting their face in disapproval every time you raise your brush!

I think I was more disappointed in Dolli having a bad round, as what she did was similar to Samah's from last week and just as poorly done.

Agree - she was absolutely outstanding the first week. When she did her own make-up she looked like some sort of Warrior-Goddess! Regal and and fierce! (Not hurt by the fact that the's a very pretty woman.)

I was paying attention to Elliot's face - he said he was bullied because it wasn't symmetrical, but I can't see anything wrong with him.

Samah is beautiful, but her make-up is very pretty-pretty and she hasn't been listening to the brief.

Xavi is one to watch, I think - not only skilled and very creative, but has been consistent. He and the drag queen with the green hair (sorry - can't remember his name) seem very good.

Szyz2020 · 28/04/2021 12:09

I didn’t get Dolli’s look at all - it seemed to be badly drawn felt-tip pen. Some of the lines were wonky and then just drawn over. Really poor (unless that was the aim!).

Elliot did have a very mardy model for the pose challenge. I felt so sorry for that gorgeous girl he turned into a pink alien/ egg thing in round two!
