Look, judge me for going early but I'm down the pub again tomorrow and I need to make sure your commentaries and observations are all being jotted down in an orderly fashion 😂

Be darlings though, and fill up the other one first....

Well that was pretty dull, i hope there's more happening in tomorrow nights show. I was trying to work out what the other film titles were about, I had wrong lyrics assumed that she's not that in to you was Tasha but clearly wrong. I suspect Luca will take ot out more on Billy than Gemma because he feels he needs Gemma to get to the final.

Best bit was definitely Deji and his suit/facial expressions 🤣

Luca is scary I think. He came across as a psychopath at the end. 'If she fucking downplays it I'm going to fucking explode!'.

If Ekin-Su hadn't made such a big deal out of it the following day, she would have got away with it. Davide seemed fairly relaxed until then. However, I think she's probably got away with it, thanks to her "we're just friends"and getting out of bed.

Luca seemed more annoyed with Billy than Gemma so think they'll be fine.

Davide would have found out about it anyway when he gets out, as someone would tell him. Did she not realise she was being filmed when she told George [?] to keep quiet. 🙄

Oh. I’ve just had an epiphany, and now I feel bad. I feel sorry for Tasha and Andrew. There, I said it.
They are consistently voted into the bottom couples/girls/boys by the public because we’re all fed up and bored to death of the weeping and flip-flopping on again, off again rinse and repeat. ARGH! ENOUGH OF THIS SHIT.
But the producers are choosing to show us this. Over and over and over again we get huge chunks of screen time devoted to these two, and then we get fed up and don’t vote for them and then there’s more tears and non-drama. Sure they could stop being so annoying but neither of them has any power to stop the producers from continuing to show us this drudgery.
Was so excited to watch movie night last night and we got, what, less than 10 minutes of it because yet again it’s a whole episode of filler Tasha and Andrew non-drama. And so yet again we’re pissed if with them…

So yeah, no more Tasha and Mr Pork Chop hate from me. I’m going to do my tapestry needle point every time they are on screen now and force myself into a zen like state of calm and artistic productivity.

vjg13 · 16/07/2022 09:10

It's very unclear what happened with ES so will be interesting to see what happens. Luca's reaction was very unsettling and over the top.

LargeBadSwanCollider · 16/07/2022 09:11

I would definitely like to see more Deji in a fancy suit eating popcorn and reacting to things. Yes please.

PenguinIce · 16/07/2022 09:14

Not sure why Luca was angry with Billy as he already seen him put his arm round Gemma - he was sat on the beanbags staring at them when it happened!

Jsy7 · 16/07/2022 09:40

Please just vote out Tasha and Andrew as soon as possible! They make me want to puke

Newpuppymummy · 16/07/2022 09:56

George was on after sun podcast and he says there was some Ekin Su touching under the duvet.
Luca is crazy. He saw Billy go for a hug with Gemma in real time. What’s he so cross about.

Picoloangel · 16/07/2022 10:02

I LOVE Demi, he’s a class act. So dignified when he realised Indiyah had used him as insurance.

I don’t dislike Tasha or Andrew but it’s just boring. I am so over their drama. I get though why she’s upset at the thought of being disliked. Probably worried about coming out to a load of hate.

I’m also really over the “cliff hanger” episode endings. As someone else said it’s basically just a way of ensuring we have zero interest by interrupting something interesting and returning to it cold the next day.

Someone asked why there is dislike for Dami and not Indiyah. For me, Dami was disrespectful to both Indiyah and the other girls. Indiyah has barely left when he started his sleaze fest and then panicked and tried to get the other boys to do the same. Dami is a player masquerading as boyfriend material. He will be cheating on Indiyah the first chance he gets.

Yes Indiyah brought Deji back but her behaviour to both him and Dami was largely respectful. She’s too good for Dami.

Sunshineandrainbow · 16/07/2022 10:44

Deji needs and deserves more air time.

Maves · 16/07/2022 10:54

Should have been Andrew to go, still can't understand what Tasha sees in him he's going to be known as "licked her tit or whatever" man forever.
I also found it strange how Ekin had that whole "don't tell the boys" convo it did seem really set up she could have just kept quiet and it wouldn't have looked so bad. Obviously for the drama.

Luca is a joke! Billy was clearly pissing around he should be more upset with Gemma's beanbag comment 😂 and "friends" don't hug proper digs at Luca there but obviously she sees what he's like but sad she has to watch her every move.

Think I'd rather have the tweet challenge hope they do that. And Yy to lack of challenges this year seems water down worst season either really.

TellingBone · 16/07/2022 11:33

Andrew is always saying, 'I'm not gonna lie...' then proceeds to lie.

He actually doubled up last night when telling the lads about saying the 'L' word.

He told them that he'd said to Tasha, 'I said, I'm not gonna lie, I'm in love with you' and he hadn't said that at all. 😂

Newpuppymummy · 16/07/2022 11:51

are there three weeks left?

id like to see Danica win but feel meh about Billy. I’d love to see all their faces if Danica wins

Newpuppymummy · 16/07/2022 11:58

My top three for final

Danica and Billy
Indiya and Dami
Gemma and Luca
Deja and ?

Newpuppymummy · 16/07/2022 11:58

Oops top four

cantthinkofanothergoodusername · 16/07/2022 12:09

Luca is one of those guys who cares deeply about "not being mugged off" by women. It's the ultimate disrespect if his "bird" looks at another man in the "wrong" way. Toxic male pride bollocks.

Youcansaythatagainandagain · 16/07/2022 12:43

The Andrew and Tasha saga is being manipulated by the producers. Whoever they want out, they will edit to to ensure the public see the bad parts continuously. They could choose not to show them in the same way they choose not to show Jack and Jasmine. There are eighteen others in there and we are being shown a disproportionate amount of Tasha and Andrew so people get bored of them.

Luca was not right to approach Tasha. As someone said earlier he does not believe their relationship is real so telling Tasha she has fallen in love and needs to be happy is nothing but goading.

Davide needs to be taken down a peg. He’s funny but his treatment of ES isn’t.

Newpuppymummy · 16/07/2022 12:47

I agree Davide is awful. When he first came in I thought he was good looking but I can’t stand him now. He thinks he’s gods gift to women and he would be a terrible boyfriend

LargeBadSwanCollider · 16/07/2022 12:47

I have no fear for Gemma getting rid of Luca as soon as it within her Instagram/business interests to do so. She’s probably the wisest person in the villa at the moment (although Adam is playing his cards close to his chest on that front). I think she’s got him pretty much sussed and even if she gives him the benefit of the doubt her savvy parents and ex-private school girl friends will get her up to speed as soon as she leaves the villa. He’s not long-term relationship material for all manner of reasons but he’ll do for another few weeks.

The I love you scene between them was so very awkward because he meant it and she only said it back to prevent a sulking toddler meltdown from him.

She’s in cruise mode now. Get to the final, maybe win some money, back to her horses and get rid of the fishmonger.

SparkyIce · 16/07/2022 13:12

First time I watched a series but it’s getting bit boring now. They must also be bored after a month in the villa doing nothing very much except rearranging the cushions when they’re talking to each other! No wonder they all jump up like maniacs when a text arrives. None of the couples are that convincing really. Gemma and Lucas maybe the most.

Tired of all the womens arses on constant display. Disliked the crass sexual stuff eg. lap-dance shows, coco’s sex accusations etc. Just unnecessary and so so crude. Lots of teens are watching this stuff and its so cringey and irresponsible to normalise such behaviour. They could do other fun games and activities without the forced sex stuff.

I did tear up a bit 😓 about Jacques though. He was clearly struggling emotionally (apparently he has ADHD). And sometimes like the funny asides of the narrator and the little ghekko joke about the snake. That’s all folks!

You wouldn't have wanted to see any of the first few series though they were full on porno compared to this!
As for teens watching obviously the show isn't aimed at teens so that's down to the parent on wether they think it's suitable.

Has Deji eating popcorn in his suit been made into a meme yet?

A580Hojas · 16/07/2022 14:35

Who remembers Matt from last year eating his popcorn? It was my favourite moment of the show! Kaz had just dumped him to go back to Tyler, who'd somehow convinced her he'd done nothing too awful in Casa Amor, then a couple of hours later they were all sitting down to watch Tyler's string of indiscretions on the big screen. Matt was a nice soul but you could see he was loving it 😂.

LostaraYil · 16/07/2022 14:40

I like Deji's reactions and the suit was great yesterday but I can't quite forgive him for copying Ovie's shocked face during the post-Casa recoupling. You'll never be Ovie, don't even try.
