I watched Maeva, Jim and the bairn.

And I cried. I am awfully sappy this festive season. I’m usually a bastard. But babies though…

not sure why those visitors. (Apart from Digby) because they’ve all been nasty hoors to Maeva behind her back.

I will say she looks radiant (and knackered at times bless her) And the bairn is beautiful.

ArcaneWireless · 27/12/2022 13:14

I confess I’m not sure about M’julie and his M’julie. Especially the latter.

That one doesn’t come across well. I reckon she goes about Belgravia on a bike. wearing stripey tights, a pointy hat and has flying monkeys carrying her tins of chickpeas.

sashagabadon · 27/12/2022 13:32

I’ve just finished bonjour baby! Now totally up-to-date with my mic viewing ( proud)
very cute baby and James will be a fantastic dad.
I just can’t see maeva sticking it out in saffron Walden for long especially if James buggers off regularly to work in london. She is going to be utterly bored imo and unhappy.
i also can’t see her being that chummy with James mum, she looked furious at the breast advice ( and James mum was trying to be gentle ) I think they’re gonna have to head back to sw3 very very soon!

ArcaneWireless · 27/12/2022 14:27

I’d be happy for them to go back to sw3.

At least MIC would have some zip about it.

I’m getting well bored of watching things grow.

Teeth. Tits. Cheeks. Torsos. Senses of entitlement. Feelings of outrage. And egos.

Jumbocoffee · 27/12/2022 15:41

@sashagabadon, they live outside of Saffron Walden in Bishops Stortford. If James is working for his parents company, that’s in Saffron Walden. It’s pretty boring round this way so I’m not sure how M will find it. Lots of ex Londoners though.

Aftersevens · 27/12/2022 16:59

I need help. I’m starting to like Sam. He’s v cheeky and just doesn’t give a shit. I’m finding him quite appealing.
Still can’t bear Inga though. She just sits there, bitchily laughing along with everything Sam says.
Poor Julius. Bless him, he’s such a twat. He really wants to be the sexy alpha but he cares too much and tries too hard.

ArcaneWireless · 27/12/2022 23:10

I think you’ll live Aftersevens

If you were saying you wanted to have playtime with Miles or do scissors with Rubby, I’d put you to your bed and give you calpol.

sNOwposthere · 28/12/2022 14:58

Bloody loved the baby episode. Loved the 'real' footage too (Maeva hoovering! Hahaha)

How glam is Maevas mum though?! Glamorous granny award worthy.

Though Marva looked amazing throughout, with the right amount of knackered-ness so as not to hate her too much for being so gorgeous.

Jumbocoffee · 28/12/2022 15:22

I really enjoyed Bonjour baby. I’m hoping they might do a mini spin off.

Prinnny · 28/12/2022 21:23

Only on Bali episode 2 and agree Harvey should not be on rbis, far too fragile, hope he’s getting the help he needs.

Could you send me to bed with Miles’ dad and something stronger than calpol?

ArcaneWireless · 29/12/2022 16:24

Your wish is my command. Or would be if I was not concerned with you popping out another Miles.

if by strong you mean you would be amenable to industrial strength sheathing (not made for comfort or sensitivity but humanity) then get your pucker up. 😉

By the way, you can see how Maeva is so beautiful. Her mam is stunning.

Amd aye, everyone having a pop on Harv is not a nice watch. He is well shot of Emz. I just wish he could realise it. 😔

mrssunshinexxx · 30/12/2022 07:37

Just catching up on Bali episodes really cringe for Jordan he seems soooo much more mature than the rest of them including Emily he seemed so out of place and quite clearly didn't want to talk about her ex !

kirkandpetal · 30/12/2022 16:22

Agree re Jordan, he feels way older than the others and it was frankly embarrassing listening to Emily bleat on about Harvey. It was quite distasteful of her given he'd gown out specially to spend some time with her.

ArcaneWireless · 30/12/2022 16:38

See I’m not sure about him being mature. He just comes across as a bit of a foofstruck milksop.

Anyone with a bit about them would be saying something like ‘give it a rest’.

Instead he is just going quiet and having a bit of a petted lip until Emz realises she has said fifty sentences too many and then saying too much only when she is aware she’s been too much.

She ain’t over him. (Harv) The brow man isn’t her rest of her life man - even with daily breakfasts.

I’m not buying this one. It honks of feesh.

I wonder why Liv wasn’t in Bali. Is there something in the water that negates the need for lube?

Jumbocoffee · 30/12/2022 17:10

Poor Jordan. His reaction when Emily goes on about Harvey again! Feels like he’s putting up with a lot.

I feel for Harvey. I think he needs a bit of help as it’s still a huge issue for him. 10 months on, you think people would leave this alone.

Maeva is so pretty. She looks just like her mum.

Majorityofthree23 · 28/03/2023 08:18

Well I watched last night and was bored bored bored. Never missed an episode (guilty pleasure) but really they are all dull dull dull.... and many not very Chelsea anymore!

lightisnotwhite · 28/03/2023 08:51

I was glad it’s back but increasingly it’s more about the clothes and hair rather than characters. It’s gone a bit TOWIE.
Thank goodness Harvey seems to want to work. I want them to get back to showing other bits of their life rather than endless chats over lunch or drinks. I want a return to their careers , glam hobbies, moving in and out of their shared pads.

Wishimaywishimight · 28/03/2023 11:02

Soooo disappointed in last night's episode. Virtually nothing of interest.

Willow is an utter bitch, every tilt of her head is nasty, really unpleasant woman, hope she doesn't stick around.

Izzy is attractive but seems utterly vacuous. Clearly wants to date Harvey but does little but giggle inanely and swish her lovely hair about while backtracking madly and agreeing she too wanted to be just friends. He is clearly staying friendly with her just to get to her (rather delicious) dad.

Yaz seems nice enough but like the others has little of interest to say. These new women seem to think all that's required is to flash their lovely teeth, giggle a lot and swish some hair.

All this hashing and re-hashing of THE BIG LIE (did she and Miles date or not? Did she and Miles kiss or not?) Why are the others so interested? It's an utterly nothing story. Even Miles looked utterly bored by the whole scenario.

Yaz's new boyfriend (they are girlfriend / boyfriend even though they hardly seem to know each other??) also seems quite nice but exceedingly dim and lacking in personality.

Lily and Billy? Bloody hell. I keep thinking Lily is Daisy from a few series ago.

I want more Miles and Emily, more Maeva and James. Where are Verity, Liv and Tristan?

Has Reza actually shrunk???

Robbie and Joel were actually the highlight and that's saying something. I truly see Robbie as some sort of Creature from the Dark, he has a seriously mean streak.

Did I see some guy called Temps????

Dreadful dreadful stuff. Last night, for the first time possibly ever, I seriously considered giving up.

All of the above.

mizu · 28/03/2023 17:12

Good lord, this wasn't even on my radar! Didn't realise it was back. I'm halfway through Topboy at the moment and nothing else!

Never missed an episode either and shall watch this one but not expecting much after the comments here. What a shame it's going downhill.

Itjustgetsbetter · 28/03/2023 17:40

Last night’s was just rubbish. No chemistry between Yaz and Guy. He seemed to come across as a bit dim. Would be surprised if they’re together in the next episode. Miles doing the whole “friends” thing again. Bore.

Really like Joel and wish he’d ditch Robbie who comes across as very selfish.

Harvey, still needs to grow up.

Overall very boring.

kenyaswhiterefrigerator · 28/03/2023 17:55

I normally watch the next day as a guilty pleasure. Having read the comments and seen who the series is centred around I think I'll give it a miss.

The new lot are dull and uncharismatic, they don't even seemingly live in Chelsea.

I'd prefer the middle aged originals and their lives, houses and children as they are today. A bit of lifestyle envy. Like Real Housewives of Chelsea.

Underadandelion · 28/03/2023 17:59

@kenyaswhiterefrigerator If anyone from Channel 4 sees this thread and cares I'd bloody love a Real Housewives Of Chelsea show too! Grin

That would be great. All the "oldies" spend enough time on Insta as it is!!
