MAFSUK7 thread 3...NO SPOILER THREAD...Tom's eyebrows wagging, Gemma not shagging and Jenna is...still a vegan.

[TitsInAbsentia]

On to the next thread...please don't post anything on here that hasn't been shown on the telly box, or hint at there being something 'out there' on insta or the daily snail cause we'll have to report it and get it removed so as not to ruin any surprises that are around the corner, despite this season being of little surprise so far. Those that want more gossip and info will find it without guidance!
Sheldoninabsentia...but hoping for a return....

So while we wait for the next ep...

If Coco hadn't gone to love island and had stayed on mafs, which of the guys would you have paired her with? (ok, I know she likely would have been paired with someone different but, just for fun).

I am going with Pjay.

Did you miss the trailer at the end of last night's episode? That's all I've seen referenced on this thread and since it played at the end of the episode, I don't think that counts as a spoiler although happy to be corrected if so.

@browneyes77 I wasn't talking about your post. But I have just gone back to look at your post to see what you're talking about and it's been deleted so I guess someone thought it a spoiler.

Don’t really want to get drawn back into the topic too much, but please can we agree that if the Mail/Mirror/whatever online ‘news’ source says something happens and it’s not been shown on the latest aired episode, whether you think it’s a rumour or a spoiler, please don’t mention it on here?

If it’s been shown in an episode but people just haven’t watched that one yet, sorry but that’s up to them to avoid. 😂

Ffs they're doing it again?

I was really hoping to welcome Sheldon back but people just aren't getting the memo.

IF SOMETHING HAS NOT BEEN AIRED DO NOT POST ABOUT IT!!!!!!!

I agree. You'd think the ixperts would be able to see from a mile off that some people need counselling rather than this shit show.
Whitney, just lost her mum. There waa someone last series who just lost a parent too. And Tatt's mum being ill also.

No, a spoiler is mentioning something in here that has NOT been broadcast on the actual show! i.e rumours, dailyfail articles.

Whats an alleged spoiler now?! If it’s because I said about Whitney and Matt, it was shown on the preview on Thursday nights show? So surely that is discussable as it falls within the remit of broadcasted?!

Anyway, my guess for Aprils eyes would be Duka! I think she would be better matched with a younger guy than an older man with 4 heartbeats, she gives me Peter Pan vibes. Agree that it was probably Coco that would have been with Pjay, imagine how different that could have been!

I'm really glad Coco didn't stay on Mafs. I couldn't stand her on LI

If the characters are shown walking into a supermarket, great, discuss their shopping trip. But don't say 'oh I can't wait for them to go home and make that apple pie' cos we haven't seen that yet and technically don't know that they did!

As I said on the last thread, it's impossible for those who are scouring Instagram, daily fail etc to be able to word things on the no spoiler thread without their secret knowledge showing through whether you think you're doing it or not.

This is so tiresome.

How Matt does his hair.

You're welcome!

Ok well this was my first time on this particular thread and I didn’t post any spoilers. I mentioned a rumour I’d heard.

As a rumour is not the same as a spoiler (because a spoiler has actually happened and a rumour isn’t conclusive of anything happening), I didn’t realise that some here would still see it as a spoiler. So it was an innocent faux pas.

However, as you wish to be rude and shouty about it, I’ll come off this thread and leave you to it. Wouldn’t want to stay chatting where I’m not welcome!

Don’t worry, I’m leaving the thread now.

You can continue to chat amongst yourselves

Posey said they hadn't seen your post. I think they missed the trailer at the end of the episode and thought references to it were spoilers.

It is a reality tv show. Despite the initial post saying that only things discussed in the episode can be spoken about, even the OP has talked about Coco and Love Island - which was definitely not in the episode. Other posters who are also gatekeeping have also written about things that were not shown in the episode.
It is a trashy TV show. Having all these rules about what people can and can't say and feeling devastated because someone said that someone on IG said that x happened in casting or production is really taking the whole thing way too seriously. Especially when the thread police on here aren't even sticking to their own rules to only post about only posting about things that have already been shown in the show.

Agreed. Talking about a trailer isn't really a spoiler, is it?

It’s simple- no spoilers please. No rumours.
Speculation is ok.
Fantasy couplings too.

Just no spoilers or alluding to them.

Mafs did do their own spoiler by showing that.trailer so that’s fair to talk about after it has aired.

I used to be on both Neighbours threads (spoiler/ non spoiler) and sometimes I’d watch the afternoon show and only post on the spoiler thread to discuss as I didn’t want to take the surprise away from others later.

No. It was something else suggesting what happens after the bit we saw in the trailer. I have no other source about mafs other than this and the previous thread and I'm pretty sure I now know exactly what is going to happen even though the trailer has not specifically shown the end of the journey.

Those aren't the rules OP decided for this thread. Only discussion of things seen on the show. No speculation, nothing else. Only discussing the exact scenes and dialogue from the show.

Why would you get to change the rules to see dicussion of what you want (speculation), but other people can't (social media posts)?

However since OP and others aren't keeping to their own rules and it is more we will post what we want but tell others what they can and can't post - I would say it is a free for all.

The clips at the end of the episode are always misleading (see George and his I've been cheated on comment)

I reckon they will all say who they fancy in the next episode.

I think Matt and Gemma make a good couple if she can just rein in her lustfulness and turn it around. I can see them staying till the end.

That is what @Rummikub means by speculation and fantasy couplings. Things we don't fucking know.

Ok magazine had a picture of Matt before his tattoos and bulking up. Looks fairly normal then!

I think they will all be asked at the retreat who else they'd fancy. Though maybe not the gay couples as they'd have to say someone who was in their group? Or who goes with which groups on boys/girls nights. So far Thomas was in the girls hen and Zoe in the boys.
Last year I think the 2 boys swapped who attended boys night, though the older chap did seem very uncomfortable with the ladies.

So my guesses for fancying. April and Johnathan but also George and Sophie.

Maybe George and Adrian, they were sweet together.

Being 49 I'd fancy George, he seems normal, trying to de-escalate rows (probably experienced due to 4 girls) and fairly attractive. Or the lived up one if I was younger but I don't see much personality at all. Zoe if had to pick a third. She had grown on me (on wedding day she looked a bit too like a young boy to see the appeal)

If the social media posts aren’t spoilers then ok.

Keep the thread in the spirit of no spoilers.

What I’ve said in my pp are a summation from previous thread too. I think op had to be firm as it was ridiculous on the last thread.

And it would be a shame to have this go the same way. It’s meant to be a fun daft thread that adds to the enjoyment of the programme.

I think everyone was ok with speculation on other thread

Just not spoilers or alluding to them Incl rumour

The first rule of MAFS is, you don’t talk about MAFS.

🤦🏽‍♀️🙄😂
