Love Island Thread 5 - These tatas are NOT for that kind of thing!

Why are they not allowed alcohol anymore?

@noirchatsdeux - yep I agree with all of that. I've only watched 2 previous series but there doesn't seem to be much fun or love going on this year.

And we need some curves in there I'm sick of seeing these perfectly sculptured kids

I assume its just killing time..

I think the producers need to choose a path going forward.

Either you choose Ibiza weekender types and ply them with endless alcohol and parties. They are happy to gain notoriety.

Or accept it has become a scripted reality show and recruit aspiring actors/ presenters who will create drama and are happy to react accordingly.

When drama? Has gone down they just drop the challenge.
But last night would have made a better show if we saw a few mins of each person and them talking about Jaqcques or the drama. Not just focused on two people.
The group parties and fun at night with everyone involved is best.
Why have a big cast if you never see them. And then it's the end of the series!

It's so true!

And i hate the dates, they are boring AF, but they havent done that much of that either?!

And I'm still hoping they will find a way for Davide to get wind of what Ekin Su did pr didnt touch in Casa... there's been no post casa games action

Its pretty much the scripted one.

I was thinking also is LI now a comedy and taking the piss out of everyone.
Or not?
I think the producers maybe want us to go wow such a great set up convo. Wow these lot are stupid and dumb .

They have done more than enough dared for me. Another tonight. If they did them 3 times a week it would mean nothing left for the episode.

My biggest pet peev is we never get to see who actually gets along in a non forced way. We see half second moments when they are getting dressed or going to bed. But that's it.

*dates

I thought they was allowed alcohol just limited? No alcohol seriously they are not kids, I really hate when they recap things we’ve just seen so I agree with pp about that

I think they are allowed one glass of wine/one beer per night, possibly more on 'party nights'

@Puffalicious

There are many genetic, hereditary, and pathophysiological components to mental health illness and disorders. The fact that you are so horrified that the words mental illness might be applied to your family is really just stigma and discrimination and likely a lack of knowledge and understanding. It isn't some horrible offensive awful thing to have it suggested that ADHD is a mental health disorder. There are many people born with mental illness and mental health disorders as well. ADHD is in the DSM, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. You really should do some reading on mental illnesses and disorders. It isn't a connection that you should be so horribly offended by.

I was hoping new guy might spill the beans, presumably he’s watched it.

I heard it was 2 drinks per person. But some choose not to have both.

The Twitter game and the headline game are usually good and they’ve not done them either. It’s been the shittest season so far.

Will any of them cry like Anton did with Crag David? 😁

I don't feel sorry for Jacques. I'm glad they told him to leave and held him accountable for his actions.

He had so many red flags, was selfish, egotistical, manipulative and emotionally abusive.

If that's what he was like on national TV I dread to think what he's like in the real world.

Good riddance to bad news. I hope he can change but if he doesn't, then the consequence is on him. He's a grown man who needs to learn to treat people with respect.

Do we truly believe that Gemma hasn't said a single bad word about Jacques to anyone?

I find that hard to believe considering how much is being edited out, like the fact that everyone found out who her dad was by day 3 but we didn't see it.

If I was Paige and I was struggling with my relationship with him one thing I would do is ask Gemma (who is also supposedly my friend) how was he like in relationships and why their relationship ended and if he was ever unfaithful to her.

If I was one of the other girls and I was worried about my friend Paige then again I would ask Gemma all the above.

Hell, if I was bored to tears of sitting on my ass all day I would ask Gemma to give me all the goss about her relationship with Jacques.

I think Gemma is very carefully being edited.

Totally agree - Andrew is a complete sleaze!

Agree it’s weird how many people now feel sorry for him now that he has left but a few days ago everyone was slating him and saying he needs to be thrown off the show but when it happens suddenly everyone feels sorry for him

Please can PP stop having a go at @Puffalicious? It's obvious that there was no horror from them towards mental health conditions but a recognition that they are very different from neurodivergent conditions.

I sometimes feel the same about learning difficulties and disabilities.

Michael Owen was asked if he was going in the villa at the end like the parents do.
He said no and his wife would do that.
That annoyed me as it assumed Gemma was with out fail there till the end.
Carefully edited more like fine tooth picked edited to an inch of its life.
Tho saying that the whole of LI is. What's wrong with seeing unedited argument and conversations and friendships.
As long as no threatening behaviour, that goes too far.

Oh me too. Want to reach in through the screen and just swivel it round a touch to make it level.

Those are the challenges I want to see! So far it’s been weeks of them just pulling each other for a chat. It’s getting dull.

I can’t work out how the cringe episode (where they dress up and write speeches for each other) is going to work when I’m not sure there are any really strong, genuine couples.
