@mastertomsmum it is worth a listen. It's over an hour so I can only paraphrase.
Kwame said on the retreat everything came to a head. He and Kasia were seen as the mum and dad of the group and he was woken up by Whitney during the night for advice regarding the whole Matt/Duka/Whitney/ Gemma situation.
He said to tell both Duka and Gemma. Duka was told by Whitney but Matt didn't tell Gemma.
By the dinner party he'd had enough when it all blew up because he'd told everyone what was sensible in the middle of the night.
Hence the whole expressing distain that Matt was comforting Duka and then incredulous when the group claimed to Gemma nobody knew what was going on.
Basically he was sick of the bullshit, missed his children, missed his work and thought that if it was going to work with Kasia it would need to be tested in reality.
The home visit he had said right from the start to production it wouldn't happen as he had two young girls and didn't want potential
Randoms recognising a front door shot/ street angle etc.
He suggested an Airnb locally but was told last minute that it wasn't available but he had permission to film in a nearby park he often took his children to. So he thought it was a good fit.
This was all mentioned and he offered to take Kasia to his home off camera.
When he saw the trailer for the next episode he realised that the entire narrative would be
He took her to a park bench.
He likened the whole experience to saying
I hate Ford Cars
But the rest of the sentence putting it in context is lost.
I hate Ford Cars because my mum broke down in a Fiesta and was nearly killed in the middle lane of the motorway.
I never liked Kwame. However he explained a lot well without being defensive.
