Geez Paris is mean

She really goes for it, weirdly fixated on disliking someone

I haven't watched it for ages but caught a bit last night. What has happened to Ollie? He used to be so handsome and now he just looks puffed up with botox. He also used to be so sweet and kind but now seems quite spoilt and annoying.
Also - and this might be controversial - there was somebody in there who sounded quite Essex and another person with a mancunian accent. Now, I have a strong regional accent myself but I watch MiC to see how the posh people live and part of that is hearing the posh voices. I don't watch it to listen to people who speak like me!! 😁

Ha ha! I also noticed that in some of the in between 'joiner' footage where they show the streets/shops/cafes etc, that they went past 'Hobbs' instead of the usual Chanel, Hermes etc.

I alarmist switched off there and then.

kirkandpetal · 05/04/2023 07:24

And yes, agree Paris is harsh. She's pretty but I can't stand the affected drawl and viciousness when she opens her gob.

Nobody does harsh like Maeva. She's an ultra mistress of the art.

Majorityofthree23 · 05/04/2023 07:55

Series warming up now.
I like Miles and think he's quite sweet. I also like Yas and glad she's sent Guy back to Bali.
Paris is just mean mean mean. At least Maeva funny!
Why is Inga turning into such a victim, I don't understand.
Slightly worrying when Sam Prince seems quite mature.....
Puppy yoga looks fun!!

Parenting?

Up to now any talk of potential little people have been mentioned in the vein of accessories and associated purchases.

Not much chat of parenting.

Have to say, I don't find it overly surprising.

Paris is nasty. Loved the scene with Maeva, her mum and James.

anonacfr · 18/04/2023 15:00

Paris is getting worse by the episode. At least Maeve does mean with flourish, Paris is just boringly vicious.

Yas should have smacked the skinny bitch!

sashagabadon · 18/04/2023 19:43

enjoyed Liv and Maeva chat. Was genuinely quite sweet and actually funny. Maeva has matured!
I also liked the sound of Ollie’s book. Can really see that idea with blue plaques working as stories and being really appealing to kids. Possibilities are endless. Has Mr Ben vibes too.
but I felt underwhelmed by the book, maybe because it was paperback and looked abit cheap!

sashagabadon · 18/04/2023 19:55

Poor Mel, warned off Harvey by Ruby and told by Yas that Charlie thought she was fling material. Very awkward 😐
I think Mel looks like across between Julia Roberts and Meghan Markle!

mizu · 18/04/2023 20:07

Starting to enjoy.....still love Yas....warming to Liv for the 1st time ever.

Really disliking Lily, Paris and Ruby.

kirkandpetal · 18/04/2023 20:44

Yes Liv and Maeva chat was actually quite sweet and ........normal. I do think becoming a mum has mellowed Maeva somewhat but she still has a brilliant turn of phrase.

There is something quite endearing about Yas, I really am starting to like her character.

Had enough of Paris, Lily and Willow.

What do women see in Harvey?

JazzHans · 22/04/2023 11:45

Paris was awful, she was so spiteful and unpleasant to Yas for no good reason- I think her behaviour helped Issy to realise Yas is actually a decent person. Maeva was really mature and quite vulnerable with Liv, she achieved a respectful truce between them with her honesty. When are they going to get some decent new men on the show? Charlie kissing Yas and Mel and rating how he sees them is a bit depressing.

mizu · 25/04/2023 19:05

Just watching the latest episode- what has Reza done to his face.......can't put my finger on it but he looks different.

Warming ever so slightly to Willow Shock

sashagabadon · 25/04/2023 19:36

Reza has had a bit of Botox I think. His face does look odd!
Charlie makes a very good observation on Miles.He has been everyone’s “best friend” for 50 minutes. Who hasn’t he been best friends with? Now it’s Yas and Temps (wherever he has popped up from) but it’ll be completely different people next week. In Canada.
The Emily/ Ruby v Inga/ lily drama is pointless

Sux2buthen · 26/04/2023 06:20

I really like the sound of Ollie's book. I may buy it Grin

OddsandSods · 26/04/2023 07:01

Willow looks like a bit part actress in a US confederates film. Or a nondescript female relative in a merchant ivory. I think it’s the pale skin and ethereal fine wafting hair.

Bluesycamore · 02/05/2023 15:27

Still my guilty pleasure. Where have Robbie and Joel gone… I like Yas. Warming to Willow but yes the pottery was cringe - can’t believe they got through filming that

sashagabadon · 02/05/2023 22:08

I am suspicious of the whole Miles going to Canada for a girl he has literally never mentioned before and he has “never felt this way before” etc. seemed so fake!
why even mention it on the show?
it was a week long trip and we didn’t get to see it anyway 🙄

MarshaBradyo · 02/05/2023 23:09

Speaking of work done the new one Imogen looked very odd

Totally agree. When watching was thinking she just doesn’t look quite right some how. Crazy how young beautiful women think they need this work.

Majorityofthree23 · 03/05/2023 18:02

Heavens this series is hard going.... obviously I'm still watching but I do wonder why?!!!?

sweatervest · 03/05/2023 20:21

also are they just skipping a week next week for sam thompson's adhd programme or is it on a different day as i am sad and desperate and clearly have no life outside watching mic.

i thnk yas is waiting for miles to launch himself but i think miles is still sad that maeva is totally unavailable. sigh. day trip to saffron walden beckons.

BasiliskStare · 04/05/2023 00:39

I am sticking with it but ( & I know this sounds too pedantic ) but do any of these people actually live in Chelsea or is it just them being filmed in places which want the advertising and stock clips of Chelsea ( I suspect I know the answer to that ) . I really don't like Ollie and I agree this series is hard going - I actually went to bed half way through the last episode . It used to be quite funny in a car crash sort of way , but I think it has run its course. Of course I shall watch next week but let us see if I can get through a whole episode before being bored. - the ones who used to amuse me most were Liv & Maeve. The chaps all seem so anodyne to me.

user1471543094 · 04/05/2023 13:57

I watched latest episode yesterday and have already forgotten most of what "happened" since it was so dull.

Yas is just silly - as is every other girl who Miles manages to trick into being "best friends" while they fawn over him and he explores every other literal option possible to him. Going to Canada? And then the girl deciding she couldn't be bothered with him. Taste of his own medicine really.
And Emily insisting that he was a hopeless romantic - nope, he absolutely is not. He has crazy standards that no girl could possibly meet long term. He is enthralled by their beauty but as soon as they show some element of being human/slightly imperfect they are relegated to best friend territory where they live forever and ever. I reckon as soon as he catches sight of them without makeup or God forbid they fart then he is instantly turned off.

I don't believe for a second he is hung up on Maeva still.

I knew someone in real life v like Miles. They even looked alike - girls were mad about him and he would make them feel really special and in same way would be best friends with them all while toying with their feelings.
Fast forward a few years and he put on a tonne of weight (unlikely in Miles' case to be fair) has 2 different kids to 2 different women and is single, drinks far too much and super creepy. Only so long you can get away with that kind of behaviour.

Harvey is another chancer. Continually saying "its just a bit of funny. nothing heavy" and using it as an excuse for stringing people along.
Also couldn't understand why Imogen was saying that he bought her a Christmas present but that they started seeing eachother in January ?

I read Liv and Tristian have split again and I really thought they seemed to be strong this time around.
