Looks like Love Island producers have announced that participants' social media will be locked whilst the programme airs. (Looking for reliable source, so far I can only find tabloid stories).
I hope it's true, I think it's needed.

@kerkyra Yes! That's it! It's been driving me mad thinking who Olivia reminds me of and it's Liv from Made in Chelsea; that stare and her facial expressions! It can stop annoying me now 😆

Puffalicious · 26/01/2023 14:03

Yes! This. Hoodies, shorts, toasties and a fag. Like, reality!

Hmm the viewers eg the ones that keep the show going.. aren't allowed to see they be normal!

Aquarius1234 · 26/01/2023 14:08

Shame they aren't allowed to be natural on TV.!

First look is up alert!

I think Ellie will go for Ron or Tom and the new guy will go for Olivia or Zara

Doesn't give much away does it 😂

Love it when Ellie (poor girl has been shut in a hotel room since Tom went in!) said 'this boy is funny and handsome' and they all had a "oooh it's me!" look on their faces!

I think Ellie is going to pick Ron or Will
Spencer is going to pick Olivia or Tanya

@Aquarius1234 got a link to the Will video?

marmiteadict · 26/01/2023 14:20

Here's a link to the video.

Hi. Avid watcher and lurker on here. Am I too late to join?

I think Olivia and Ron will be picked having just seen first look (which admittedly doesn't give anything away does it?)

Will is the most obviously funny one of the boys (I'm picking this boy because he is funny) but would she go for him? Sweeping generalisation but she does come from Norfolk so maybe she grew up on a farm?

Aquarius1234 · 26/01/2023 14:39

You could say Will is the only 'funny' guy.

Always space for more watchers Lemons! We're a bit thin on the ground these days 😊

Think Spencer is going to pick Olivia (she's there only one I can think of who's had ups and downs).

I'm guessing Olivia is going to pick Ron or Will as I don't think the others have particularly shown a sense of humour. I hope it's Ron as think Ellie could be completion for Lana, which could make it interesting.

Jellykat · 26/01/2023 18:20

I reckon
Ellie - Ron or Tom
Spencer - Olivia or Zara
Looks like i'll have to catch up with The Apprentice tonight to watch LI, instead of t'other way around!

HandbagsnGladrags · 26/01/2023 19:19

God I'm so utterly bored of some of them now.

Olivia: 'i just feel like a spare part...I can't stop crying...I just wanna meet the love of my life....wah wahwahwah' FAKE!

The pulling for a chat is so fake. Why can't we see what they say behind the scenes!

CarpyDiem · 26/01/2023 20:19

Struggling to post as MN being v v cranky for me!

I've now caught up on catch up.

I didn't take to Olivia from the off - too obviously trying to grab all the attention
And I don't take to Zara either - to aggressive and close to aggressive

I'd like to see the back of them both. And then see what Tom does when he has no irons in the fire

Aquarius1234 · 26/01/2023 20:39

Will seems gay and Tom seems a little bit.

Zampa · 26/01/2023 20:40

Don't ever change 😂

Might as well throw in Olivia too...

Zampa · 26/01/2023 20:49

😂😂😂😂😂

Why not!

namechangeforthisbleep · 26/01/2023 20:52

Imagine going on a date with Zara and she does that weird gangsta shit at another girl in a club. How can anyone want to be seen with that. She's so pretty but her manner needs work 😂

Peasepuddingbloodycold · 26/01/2023 20:54

I can't decide whether to watch or not. I'm reading a really good book.

I liked it in the early series when they didn't bother getting all done up in the evenings and just hung out smoking in their PJs and getting drunk, much more realistic!!

Totally - wish they'd go back to this!

Love that you're consistent @Aquarius1234 , although to be fair, I reckon you're right about Will Grin

Freddieonahill · 26/01/2023 20:57

Go sista???? Hmm

Plus Olivia seems much more unhappy inside and insecure than Zara

Freddieonahill · 26/01/2023 20:59

Puffalicious · 26/01/2023 13:08

You can think a lot of yourself (go sista) but not be nasty with it. This is what makes her awful. And, yes, I imagine she's surrounded by people as self-absorbed as herself, few real friends. You can tell when a person is happy inside (Lana), Zara does not give this impression, so my guess (I am actually qualified a bit) is that unhappy people like/need to make others unhappy. I hope she reaches some self-knowledge- not in this show- but at some point in her life she looks back and sees it.

This better be good

Yep, we called it right!
