Tit for tat? Mafsuk thread 4. NO SPOILERS. Real time discussion.

[Bundlebungle]

There is a spoiler thread if you want to post hints. Let's enjoy the drama lamas as it happens.

I’m beginning to think that Thomas’s behaviour is abusive towards the woman regardless of what they say. Just another example of letting men into woman spaces and shutting them down. Although in fairness he does it to the men as well.

He's just a nasty drunk.

But he said that because he then didn't have to say flat or house or bedsit or room under the stairs in my mum's house.

We don't know and I can't speculate on this thread or judge dread will report me 🤣 there is a spoiler thread, pop over there for more...

Just catching up on the thread and episodes but this comment absolutely killed me. I had to write it down and add the picture.

I don't know why but I'm giving Kwameme the benefit of the doubt about the home stays. Is it that he didn't want the cameras in and around his house? I can't say I'd allow that either.

Loved Thomas' outfit.

George clearly told Adrian that April is fake and here for the game.

I feel like making a stand and not watching because Tit n Tat are still here but here I am.

Just catching up on Tuesday's and Wednesday's episodes.

Why's Soph brought him to her parents? Trying to show off? Is her apartment not quite what she's making it out to be?

I feel like 90% of these episodes are full of flash backs to the previous episode. As if we've forgotten in 24 hours. Show us what's actually going on.

Why does Thomas automatically go in the women's group and Adrian in the man's group? I think Adrian would benefit a lot from more time with the women and be great at giving them advice too. Thomas is verbally abusive and it was quite upsetting to watch him attack Sophie.
I'd like to see Sophie's dad V Thomas.

I am genuinely concerned at Thomas's drunken outbursts - they are so extreme. I don't even remember what Sophie said, but it sounded to me like she was clarifying/asking to clarify what T's mum had asked him. Yet he starts with the "don't come at me", "I'm leaving" dramatics - it just makes no sense to be so so so angry.

A decision is made at the start of the series who goes to which group, and that stays consistent. It wouldn't be fair if they could swap over partway through, given that none of the others are allowed to

I thought they did swap over last year.

Adrian would have been better in the women's group, he would have behaved. If anything Thomas's behaviour highlights why men shouldn't be in women's safe spaces. The fact that Thomas wears more lipstick and higher heels than me, doesn't give him the right to shout over women, screaming bitches. He should have been removed by the producers. The women seemed to have a nice time without him.

Nikita got kicked off for similar behaviour last year but Thomas gets away with it every time.

Thomas's behaviour highlights why men shouldn't be in women's safe spaces

Absolutely this!!

Thomas & Nikita are friends - says it all!

Nikita hit someone or something. She wasn't removed for shouting.

In fact, I'm struggling to think who hasn't raised their voice out of the current crop. Even Adrian was told to be quiet at George and April's commitment ceremony.

If they removed people for shouting they'd be back to the original format of three couples, proper experts and no dinner parties. Which would be much better imo.

They should really cut back on the dinner parties. They don't add anything (except drama). They're not a sign of anything about how a relationship works in RL because you're not forced to have day-long dinners with people you hate and do tasks designed to create tension.

Never have I ever ...
... went to more than one dinner party with someone I hated or disliked

It was hilarious seeing everyone's responses to Matt and Whit's declarations of 'love'.

Chanita's face! Gold.

I know! And Zoe saying 'its' not the fucking Notebook!'
I'm guessing the clip from the commitment ceremony showing Matt shouting at someone will be him going after one of the couples who aren't buying his and Whit's star-crossed lovers' act. The thing is even if they're madly in 'love' after two weeks, they still didn't need to stay on the show. They've taken nothing from the process and the experts except free accommodation and all their credibility.

Yes the older chap went once to the ladies picnics

He didn't seem to love it much.

I assume they ask -also if you had 2 girly girls who married it may be that neither wants to have to go to "boys night" but Zoe seems happy so that's okay. It should be a choice rather than trying to define one if a gay couple as "the man/woman"

I can understand why they want them to go to different groups because they want to give them space to talk about their partner but it felt more natural to swap them around like they did last year. Although maybe they do choose which group and then choose again whether they want to swap or not.

Totally agree with this - he absolutely highlights why women need safe spaces and he should be removed by producers for how verbally aggressive he is towards them. Shocking he's allowed to get away with it.

Tbf she threw a drink at someone. So far Thomas has just thrown insults.
