Does anyone follow Sam Thompson’s insta commentary on Love Island? He is v enthusiastic. And happens to be Zara McDermott’s current squeeze, aka Adam Collards ex. The reaction tonight was laugh out loud funny 😂

outshinethemorningsun · 10/07/2022 23:38

Adam looks like he’s aged a decade rather than four years

why are they bringing in an ex-islander?? Everyone will know how he behaved ditching whoever he was with every time another brunette came in, and how he had a statement issued about him from women’s aid. It makes zero sense to bring in an ex islander but particularly him. Struggling to see the thought process..

JacquelineCarlyle · 10/07/2022 23:40

Completely agree @outshinethemorningsun

BiscoffSundae · 10/07/2022 23:54

Wasn’t Zara’s brother meant to be going on 🤔 they send her ex instead

LostaraYil · 11/07/2022 06:12

Who voted for Andrew and Coco!? I was looking forward to getting Andrew off our screens finally! I think Adam is going to try to tempt Ekin away from Davide and it might work.

ijustcouldntthinkofausername · 11/07/2022 06:46

It was very very set up last night....
a lot of the shots were them looking at each other and not being able to keep a straight face for what they were 'being told to say'
(Andrew and Tasha conversation)

Omg Adam Collard 🤦🏼‍♀️ why just why...

ijustcouldntthinkofausername · 11/07/2022 06:50

I always thought he was a weirdo before

jay55 · 11/07/2022 07:48

@EddieHowesBlackandWhiteArmy I started following Sam again for his love island commentary. Love Zara'slittle insights into the show too. Even though I totally didn't remember her from when she was on it.

It's hilarious how invested he gets, makes me feel better about tuning in.

Tillsforthrills · 11/07/2022 08:14

India has gone right down in my estimations. Ditto Paige - is she 12 or something, finding that silly note and giggling like that? Is that all it takes?

Watching the penny drop for Danica that Josh used her to get into the villa was a relief, again he said he doesn’t like her and she tried to push it - doing herself no favours there. Not sure why she seems to repel all the males.

Cannot believe Andrew and Coco got votes though I wish it were Dami or Billy that left.

Gsds · 11/07/2022 08:15

uurgh Adam! I hated him. He will go for Gemma, he’s just her type, controlling, sexist, misogynistic, generally a bunting of red flags just like Luca and Jacques.

Tillsforthrills · 11/07/2022 08:17

I hope whoever the misogynistic foolish producers are notice the backlash and understand they’re tone deaf bringing Adam in.

Hearing the amount of bs coming from Dami “Come on, I’m a guy!” was so disappointing.

questionthyme · 11/07/2022 08:23

Adam.

Really.

Is that the best they could do.

They need to do better. Disappointed.

Maves · 11/07/2022 08:36

They are doing themselves no favours are they!
Bringing back this twat.
This is honestly the shittist year, casa was the biggest letdown ever!
Feel bad for danica but she talks in that tone it's so strange I think that's what puts everyone off.

Paige is just getting annoying that head thing she does is now to distracting 😂 and she's never got a smile on her face.
I think public or islander vote jays a gonna, he pus zero effort in and is boring in all fairness chyna has zero chat as well so they won't be missed.
Luka wtf seriously needs to chill out.
They need billy in there for the drama with Gemma so glad he ain't going! It should have been Andrew and coco tbf Andrew is seriously unstable and does not act 27. I think ekin n Davide have got this UNLESS movie night shows that wank.

Rollergirl11 · 11/07/2022 09:13

Agree with what others say what were the producers thinking bringing back Adam??! I think it’s becoming very clear with this season that they have no fucking clue what their viewers want to see! We don’t want all the staged interactions and a villa full of toxic masculinity. And yet they bring back Adam!

I reckon he’s going to make a beeline for Gemma.

Rosebuud · 11/07/2022 09:33

To be fair if Adam goes for gemma that could be very watchable indeed 😂

For some reason 24 year old producers, never want to show anything that isn't controlled or set up staged glossy chats.
The ratings are sky high again this series, so if anything its only going to get worse now if that's possible.
They seem to think if they don't get involved constantly. Which defeats the purpose of not talking to anyone in the outside world and having the paranoia of not knowing how your coming across! Duh.
All this stand there shoot this. Talk to him it's just a soap with terrible actors.
But I think things would still happen naturally but just not in the way or the conventional way the immature producer s want it to happen.
We would prob see random pairing and lots of bitching behind backs at times and general gossip and flirting within the whole group and having a laugh.
Basically it would be like a proper warts and all.

Aquarius1234 · 10/07/2022 23:13

I did hear rumours about ex Islanders going back in so . .. all very dull. When we already know them.

I'd read that too but was hoping for some more entertaining people, not a toxic twat 🙄

I agree with others that Indiyah’s reaction to Dami is really disappointing. I really thought she knew her worth. He’s just awful and that whole “just me being a guy” act is such crap. The way he was trying to get both girls to kiss him last week. He’ll be off quicker than a premier league footballer at a stag do once they are out of the villa

Luca is so controlling and possessive. I agree that Gemma has handled it brilliantly. She’s so self assured and impressive. I can’t believe she’s only 19. A v good role model for young women.

Rollergirl11 · 11/07/2022 09:49

Hah hah, just watched Sam Thomson’s Instagram stories. Very funny. I actually really like him and used to find him and Pete Wicks from TOWIE really funny on Celebs go dating.

Didn’t Zara have a complete nightmare with an exe sharing some revenge porn while she was in the villa?

Rollergirl11 · 11/07/2022 09:56

@TitsInAbsentia yep 100%. Why did they go for him??! There are so many better ex islanders to choose from: Chris Hughes from season 3, Jack Fowler from season 4, Chris Taylor from season 5. Or Ovie! Anyone but Adam Collard.

Picoloangel · 11/07/2022 09:59

Ovi was an absolute legend and I agree Chris Taylor would have been a great choice. Him and his kimono definitely went too soon!

I'm pretty sure Zara did a documentary on it.

I do like Danica, bless her, but she's got a bit missing somewhere. After his awks schoolboy dithering, Josh finally came straight out and said he wants them to be single and her reaction is to offer that they can still kiss and cuddle, making him having to be even more emphatic. And then she reframes it in the talking head interview that she wanted to split up too. She's terrible at reading relationship cues and something she's doing is putting people off, because she's a great proposition on paper. Even the chat with E-S and Luca suggests there's something she's not comprehending so it won't matter who they send in, it's unlikely she's going to find the rare guy who genuinely gels with her.

Josh is useless though. No way is he ready for love in any form. Contrary to his 'must be friends first' excuses, he seems like a classic ONS and ghosting fool.

TitsInAbsentia · 11/07/2022 10:01

Upthread it was mentioned Adam makes £250k a month on only fans...how the hell? I mean I don't actually know what only fans does, is it just racy photos or are they actually like? But even so, HOW MUCH?

OP posts:
TitsInAbsentia · 11/07/2022 10:02

Oh also in the preview (and I realise it could have been edited out of context) Ekin Su seemed pretty peeved that Adam had also pulled Paige for a chat/a date/whatever it was. She really doesn't like being put in that same league does she!
