NEW MIC - who’s watching?

[MaryStuart]

Do we still care?
Well I do, cos I’m tuning in.

Ruby / Rez….. oh pleeeaaassseee NOOOOO.

I enjoyed that little 3 way frisson with MF and Robbie and boyfriend.

When does the Summer programme start?

Love that little Chamois is blaming meJulie for mucking up his hookies with Inga. Absolutely nothing at all to do with you being a cock. Oh no.

Loving that me’Julie thinks he is Trisha. He ain’t. Loving also he is relationship guru. When he can’t get a squeeze himself.

Not arsed about fuckeeboi and Em. Prize shite rotation Millyboy.

The diggers Emma shite? I’m a yawnymcyawnyperson. Not the marriage material? They’ve been seeing eachother precisely two minutes. Tedious. And Milly out wiv his spoon… again. It all seems like hard work. Siberia stylee.

Diggers doesn’t listen to his inner Diggers. He doesn’t know if he is coming or going. He doesn’t think Livvy is a beyotch. Proof right there.

MF and mini- mf. Bless. MF would be right in there I reckon. But not to the mini-me.

Rubby gets right on my tits but she was absolutely right. He was an utter cock. That sort of jealous shite folk can do without. Even if she did have form. But why follow a random? Chinnies.

Height of suspicion about the gloves. Height of summer.

Did she get the fitba player’s name tattooed on her hand? Beered up Kavos stylee? 😁.

loved Maeva’s ringy. And the proposal. I proper cried.

I am an old sap. 😍

I loved the proposal too @SheldonesqueTheBstard , and I didn’t think I wanted Maeva to end up with ol’ chipmunk chops James but actually, having just watched a few episodes of series 17, which was one of my MIC hiatuses/came to my senses for a few years, I’ve changed my mind a bit. Miles was an (unbelievably hot) total arse dangling Maeva on a string, and I kind of like how she and James decided to just cock a snook at every judgemental fucker and go for it. Felt a bit emosh realising I was witnessing the (totally scripted) inaugural stirrings of their holy union!

Also don’t know if anyone else agrees, but it was actually Sophie’s meddling that pulled Miles and Maeva apart when they were tentatively giving things another try, banging on about how he needed to cut her off and keep moving forward, and then givin’it large to Jaeva (Maemes?!) and pushing them closer together. She’d give John Deed a run for his money in the judgyness stakes 😆

The way (at the Trevi) he held her face and kissed her and then swooped her up because she was a bit shocked and overwhelmed did it for me. He loves her. She loves him. That’ll do for me. It feels real.

told you I was a sap Das 🥰

I care not for showmances and pissing abahhhht. Take note scriptwriters.

I'm a sucker for Roma though. My old stomping ground. And I’ve been behind the Trevi and it was fab. 🇮🇹

Oooh. What’s behind the Trevi? What does it feel like. I’m a bit fan girl for Roma

I totally agree @SheldonesqueTheBstard I only enjoy the show when it’s clearly real, don’t want the showmances, and scripted rows where someone clunks in to a half-empty bar, says a genial hello to the other cast-mate standing there and then launches in to an almighty character assassination of them seconds later. Why would you agree to socially meet someone you share nothing with but mutual antipathy?! If I have to hear ‘yeah well I think you should just leave’ ‘yeah I’m going mate, don’t worry’ uttered from Tristan, MeJulie, Sham, Harvey or Rez’s chops one more time this series I’m gonna head down to Chelsea and start kicking butts!

So yes, I agree the love is there for Maemes, and now a wee bairn on the way, as you would say! Full on greet when that bonnie one appears aye.

Hi light

I should say under really and not behind. There is a whole archaeological site in the Trevi area and it is fascinating. A wee maze really and the original aqueduct (or from memory - a part thereof - it was quite a few years ago now). I was lucky enough to know a lovely archaeologist out there who was very happy to share his passion with his friends.

My favourite place is the Forum area - you could come across something new there each time you went.

I adored the Domus Aurea.

And the churches. Some looked like nowt from the outside and you walked on and were blown away by the sculptures and artwork.

Oh and the Orange Garden. Loved it there.

So many memories and my cultural cup was overflowething. I was very lucky.

I lived outside Rome but went in for a mooch about most weeks. My landlady just never went there because she never felt the need! I was gobsmacked when she said that. She’d only ever driven round it on the GRA.

I loved it all. And the gelato. And the coffee. And the food. But I am a pig. I was blessed.

A - maze - ing. What fabulous experiences.
Has MIC done a summer there? Love to here your commentary on that with your insiders knowledge.

Picture the scene(s) my love.

I had ice cream in that very place and he was off his face on wine.

I had sea urchin there and he was off his face on wine.

I remember getting called a moose there because he was off his face on wine.

i remember he did the armpit drying shambling dance there because he was off his face on wine.

I had sore feet in that very piazza (as we had walked about 10 miles because he forgot where he parked the car) because he was off his face on wine.

I stayed in that very hotel and watched the sunset on my own because he was off his face on wine.

I daresay they would not be marvelling at the architecture and appreciating the serenity on a MIC trip.

They’d be too busy hooking up and fighting at posh dinner parties.

Because they’d be off their faces on wine.

🙁 Sadly I can picture it. I’m the inebriated one. It does turn one into an utter twat.

I would still like to see MIC there. It would be lots of hair shaking as they climbed off scooters. Lots of sipping coffees. Some pretending to eat but really only in restaurants so they can show off their Italian language skills. Roof top bars with bottles of fizz from their friends vineyards “ just out of town” and parties in dark and dirty ancient ruins.

Your version sounds eerily accurate!

Add in the one arm in the sky dancing and teeth gleaming like marble and you’ve nailed it.

After a fairly alarming episode with a mug of grappa, I didn’t drink much after that and still don’t.

I manage to be a big enough twat without the grog.

But I will go back. I have visions of wafting around, looking like a vision of elegance, in white voluminous clothing and a big hat.

In reality I will be schlepping around, looking a dishevelled Miriam Margolyes, and shambling about like an unkempt zombie and being completely off my tits on caffeine 🥴

They spent alot of time drinking,gyming,jet skiing and sitting by the pool or in restaurants.
What was so cringe and had me sadly realising once again how fake they are even on Instagram was...julian and miles went off to find this secret beach.when they got there on miles story it was him in front discovering it down some steps...ahhh but then on Julia's it was the other way round! They'd shot the thing twice for their own pages.how miserably fake.
There have been many stories like this between miles julias and diggers this summer.
And another was Tristan on a bike ride with miles.🤔

Anyone watchedMallorca special ?

Oo is it out now? I need to watch!

Yeah it was the usual drama but good I thought ! @Hazelthecat it's on every night this week

It was cracking first episode. On every night! Whoop!

Yes was good! Happy with the episode per night. Are we thinking Em and Miles are deffo a thing now?

Rubyrubyrubyruby - lying through her teef
Rez - chicken arse mouthed
Olz - big mouthed
M’Julie - mealie mouthed
India - open mouthed
Liv - bottom teeth only mouthed
Miles - all mouth and trousers
Emz - down in the mouth
Maeva - inadvertently put foot in mouth
James - Cheshire catty mouth

A lot of them seem to have gone in past Turkey for their teeth.

Tris is not after India. That’ll be Liv.
Miles and Em? When he is willow sniffing? Hardly. I’m not buying that.

Same old shite. Different island. Triffic.

@Prinnny I think it was just a summer fling

Looks like she’s leaving him in the friend zone, I'm surprised tbh thought they’d have a fling as part of the summer series contract 😂

Ive really took a massive dislike to Julius this series, I thought he was a prick before but wow he is actually vile. Him n Miles sniggering at Digby made me fuming, they’re meant to be his mates and the best bit about it is Digby is the best fella on the show by a country mile!

Great watched it last night due to this thread

Ruby looked slightly different for some reason, Julius is still absolutely awful, tg Diggers told him to walk away, Rez really should get his act together she doesn’t live him

Tristan is an idiot for going back to Liv

The new girl seems vulnerable poor thing, Julius is not worth it

Was no one else stunned that India was seeing him for 2 whole years? I mean I know there’s someone for everyone but he is so seriously cringy it seems an impossibility

@Prinnny agree I really like Digby too. @MarshaBradyo why is Tristan an idiot for going back ? I'm not a liv fan! Not that I'm a Tristan fan either

Do we think Maeva and James will stay on the show when they have had the baby?

I'm abit sad Miles and Emily don't make a go of it

I hope Maeva stays on, James is a bit of a wet lettuce but she brings enough entertainment for the both of them! I felt a bit sorry for Ollie and Gareth when they did the pregnancy announcement last night, they looked sad bless them.

I think Liv and Trist are both as bad as each other, one of those toxic couples trapped in a continuous cycle of breaking up and making up! Similar to Ruby and Rez actually, but at least Liv and Trist smile and laugh in each other’s company whereas Ruby and Rez look like they hate each other!

India seems very vulnerable which makes me think Julius is the worst of men, looking forward to Sam Prince giving it to him tonight! I wonder if Inga will be back, don’t know if her and Liv ever made up?
