They didn't show the newbies on unseen bits. Normally they would say towards end of the show. Last part etc.
Right that's it I'm done lol.
But they obviously don't care about the show anymore now it's pretty much over.

It covers the whole week, an still had both Summer and Billy in

It's a bit contrived, but more fun than the main programme

I think that ES/Davide may well be the winners. The other serious contenders are Gemma/Luca and the possibles to be the 3rd couple in the final are Tasha/Andrew and Paige/Adam.

But I think the dark horses that might come up and steal a place in the final are Lacey/Deji - they have made a good impression on a very small amount of airtime, and I'd like to see more, in the hope that they indeed are more fun, natural and articulate than the rest of them put together, plus they look like they're enjoying themselves.

the other Chris (the salmon jumps into the pool etc)

Yes, I liked him - didn't seem to take himself too seriously, took the piss only in a very gentle sort of way (no nastiness dressed up as bants) and was lovely to Harlee. I mean it was very obvious that he didn't fancy her at all and they really did seem mismatched,but on their date he was really attentive and made sure she was having a good time (thereby getting the best time he could for himself)

If we had to have a returning Islander, I'd much rather have seen him come in to the villa, but I'm not sure any of this year's girls would have been a good match

DH just walked in on the yellow bean bag ending...he said if he was the producer he'd change all the beanbags to yellow overnight....I didn't realise he was so evil 😂

Still catching up but on the current thread just seen Danica having ago at Billy for telling the guys what happend when all he said the salons open and said yes to her playing with his pipette and then said and the other way around.

She said to Indiyah and Summer " we may have got carried away, I don't know the terms but it wasn't long but yeah it's wasnt long, it was just like a tiny taster, and that both were the client whilst doing hand signals and that they were talking and laughing like normal whilst doing it.

She went into a lot more detail but he's the bad guy Confused

What's the significance of the yellow bean bag

marmiteadict · 24/07/2022 11:48

@Mouldyfoodhelp whenever somebody sits on it they end up having drama soon after. So it is thought to be cursed.

marmiteadict · 24/07/2022 13:25

It's the bottom three couples facing dumping apparently.

BiscoffSundae · 24/07/2022 13:38

It’s obviously going to be Reece and nathalia how pointless putting them in and aren’t the newbies usually exempt in previous series?

Exactly. The lasted less time than those that got dumped from Casa.

Natalia has the looks and body of a supermodel and the personality of an operations manager. That's why she didn't do well. She had no flirty chat - she was very directive. She and Danica should form a management consultancy.

There was a revealing little bedtime chat among the boys about Paige. Something along the lines of Adam saying she would let her bloke do what he liked/go out whenever he liked. And I think that is her appeal - she is 'easygoing' ie makes no demands. I think Paige is very pretty and sexy but she does remind me of the 'good wife' role in 1950s films. Flirty, unthreatening, accommodating and standing by her man.

This is why she was referred to as ‘wifey material’ by some of the boys
It was simply a way of the boys saying that she was a pushover.

I like his style!!

A580Hojas · 24/07/2022 15:48

Ekin-Su does a lot of forced laughing and a massive gasping over-reaction when there's a text.

I'm wondering if Nathalia and Reece will have the shortest time in the villa since that poor girl who was shipped in for Hugo last year.

Newpuppymummy · 24/07/2022 15:53

Maybe bottom two couples will go?

TitsInAbsentia · 24/07/2022 16:40

@Newpuppymummy I hope so. I think given there's people not sleeping in the bedroom that they'll take out the bottom two...but only if it fits the producer's agenda...

First look shows we're getting a shite sports day...yippeeeeee 🙄

First look is out

jay55 · 24/07/2022 16:51

I bet we get twice as much Davide making dessert as we get sports day.
And the usual cliffhanger for the result.

helencarrot · 24/07/2022 16:53

Yawn to the sports day!

Is this on tonight?

BiscoffSundae · 24/07/2022 17:02

I get why they did sports day before because wasn’t Hugo a pe teacher? Otherwise why bother now? Literally snooze fest 😴

Bovrilly · 24/07/2022 17:10

Anyone know what the viewing figures are like? I'm so meh about this series I can't be bothered to look it up 🤷‍♀️

Prinnny · 24/07/2022 17:34

So are we really not getting the tweet game this year?! It’s the best one. I doubt they’ll be any more newbies now too, next week will be the boring baby challenge, meet the parents stretched over possibly two episodes and then final dates stretched over three! And then it’s the final, another year done and dusted.

PancakesWithCheese · 24/07/2022 17:47

The tweet challenge is the best one. That postman one was a load of shit.

marmiteadict · 24/07/2022 18:11

I really can't call the bottom three. Reece and Nathalia for sure. Probably Danica and new bloke as Danica has been in the bottom 3 twice for favourite girl and nobody really knows the new boy.

I think Ekin and Davide, Luca and Gemma, Paige and Adam will be safe.

So it's between Deji and Lacey, Indyah and Dami and Tasha and Andrew as the final bottom couple.

GreenWasTheColour · 24/07/2022 18:12

I suspect they're dropping the tweet challenge to protect the mental health of the boys - but were happy to do movie night at the expense of the girls. They've exposed the girls, especially Tasha, to victimisation but are looking out for the boys who engaged in bullying, misogyny and appalling double standards. I assume it's also a priority for them to keep Gemma and Luca riding as high as they can.

Cannot sit through the baby boredom - show me Luca and Dami hearing the Women's Aid tweet and Gemma hearing what her mum said about Luca PLEASE! (I know this won't happen but I wish!)
