Sluuuurp

Aww, Sharon and Aaron and being young.

Can someone explain Kaz's hair to me? I noticed she was wearing a hat in bed. Does she wear a wig? (I'm really conscious that my question could be ignorant and offensive, and that's really not my intention).

More slurping... i actually think these 2 are v sweet.

Not sure about Kazs hair David

She's wearing a satin lined cap or 'slap' and I think she's wearing a wig, yes

Oh jake don't be a douche....

#Shaaron

I'm not sure about Jake and Liberty. How much has he actually said about how much he likes her? (I'm afraid my attention drifted).

If Jake screws over Liberty bell be enemy no. 1.

What did Jake say just then?

@Zampa

If Jake screws over Liberty bell be enemy no. 1.

He'll

Oh shit, is Jake about to be a knob end?

@Chicchicchicchiclana

The whole show is product placement, including the make up, hair styling equipment, sun cream, what they eat and drink. I'd love to see them not using wipes to get make up off - it would encourage the younger generation to follow suit.

Yes!

Is this because her natural hair wouldn't be seen as "acceptable"? The wig allows her to have the long, straight hair look?

@DavidTheDog yeah she wears a wig so what she wears in bed is called a bonnet. It protects her natural hair from rubbing on the pillow.

Thank you @becarefuloutthere.

@DavidTheDog nothing to do with acceptable or not. It's just the preferred choice for her. A lot of black women wear wigs because they like the look, it's not seen as a big deal.

Faye and Hugo would be good.

I'm really bad at accents is Brad from Newcastle or Scottish? He flits between the accents

I think Faye is smart to go for Hugo.

I wear a bonnet 🤷‍♀️ I don’t wear a wig but it’s good to sleep in them to stop your hair from breaking when it rubs on the pillow it can cause breakage. Lots of black people wear them. (I’m mixed)

Do you think? I don't hear any Scottish accent there.

Could be a bit of game playing on Faye's behalf but I think they could get on quite well.

I think Faye and Hugo could be potential winners if they get together. It was obvious last night she liked him.

I can't make up my mind does Chloe fancy Brad?

I think Chloe has gone right off him. He's such a potato.
