Toms way of getting a girl isn’t with witty chat and nice compliments. No, he just has to sit there and do his smile thing and he has them in his snare (to be fair it has worked on three of the girls already)
The girls are always the one to go in for the kiss first then he moves in just a little bit. Same with every girl.
He’s a bore with no personality, getting by on his looks and height.
Ron is an idiot. I hope Lana crushes him with a new lad.
We need lots more male bombshells to bring those boys down a peg or two.

Agree that they need some stunning looking male bombshells.
They need to send in someone for Tanyel. She is suffering being stuck with Kai who is
as dull as ditchwater

Which could be said for 80% of them. But she pretends to the camera shes genuine,

I think for a lot of them it’s a “best of a bad bunch” situation. You have to couple up with SOMEONE, so inevitably if you’re not actually really into anyone you’re going to have to exaggerate your feelings. I don’t think Tanya is that into Shaq either but likes him enough that it’s comfier to stay with him for the next few weeks

Peasepuddingbloodycold · 30/01/2023 12:22

As well as some male bombshells I like the idea of a daft dancing task for the boys too. Get them making a bit of an effort.

lemonsaretheonlyfruit · 30/01/2023 13:42

Yes we definitely need 2 more male bombshells (or would equally settle for 1). Way too much emphasis on Tom and all the other 'boys' seem to think they have the upper hand.

Totally agree the new bombshells will need to have something about them. Not a Spencer type. Someone who has the looks AND the personality (not that I think Tom has either) to really shake things up and get the boys worried.

I somehow can't imagine Lana genuinely wanting to get to know anyone else however, and I think she would only do it to keep Ron on his toes. But she really should. She has way too much faith in head swivelling Ron.

Who do we think Samie will go for?

MotherofKitties · 30/01/2023 13:56

First look is up alert!

And it looks like tonight is going to be a good one!

But why are they all so shocked Ellie kissed Tom?

Aquarius1234 · 30/01/2023 14:05

Not bothered by first look. TOM AGAIN

Aquarius1234 · 30/01/2023 14:06

Set up viA producers.

MotherofKitties · 30/01/2023 14:40

@steelseries When I watched it sounded like Will said that Ellie told him she had kissed 'a man' on the terrace but didn't specify who hence the reaction from Tanya and Shaq, as in ohh I wonder who it was?! Type thing.

Unless I've heard it incorrectly Blush

Rollergirl11 · 30/01/2023 14:45

Also from First look sounds like Lana is starting to see the light when it comes to Ron. Echo what others have said need a really fit guy who is emotionally intelligent to come in for her, maybe someone slightly older.

TellingBone · 30/01/2023 14:50

I think Shaq and Lana would have made a good match.

Anyway, re last night - Jessie has clearly seen her 'out' from Will and the gradual withdrawal will no doubt continue apace.

When is Casa Amor usually? Looks like a ripe time to have it soon.

CarpyDiem · 30/01/2023 14:57

Really fit guys who are emotionally intelligent are unlikely to be eligible to be Islanders (you have to be single). Ditto for the women.

So I think it would be hard to find that sort of bombshell, though of course there will be some who have just been unlucky. I suppose someone who is genuinely growing out of youthful indiscretions, or who has a full-on job that limits socialising (like farming.....)

But those aside, you're looking at the beautiful version of the undateables

Rollergirl11 · 30/01/2023 14:58

Will definitely says that Ellie kissed Tom on the terrace. I’m not getting all the shocked reactions to be honest. Why shouldn’t they?!

EddieHowesBlackandWhiteArmy · 30/01/2023 15:05

I guess because Olivia has been telling folk that Tom wants to graft her.

CellophaneFlower · 30/01/2023 15:13

Could it be as they've realised he's playing Olivia and Samie and now they've discovered there's a third? The fact he's kept it secret is probably quite a shock for them too. Tbf it must be quite boring in there a lot of the time, so any bit of gossip gets the full on shock factor.

It was Tom that told Ellie to keep the kiss secret wasn't it? That was creepy af too.

Newpuppymummy · 30/01/2023 16:46

I’m sure it was Ellie who said don’t tell anyone first

Newyearnewmeow · 30/01/2023 16:46

Yes it was Ellie. She said let’s keep this to ourselves and Tom agreed.

CellophaneFlower · 30/01/2023 16:55

Ahhh ok. I think I'm so anti-Tom now it's clouded my view! So she told him not to tell... then told 🙄Perhaps she realises the kiss hasn't stopped that wandering smile of his so wants to either stake her claim, or out him 🤔

TitsInAbsentia · 30/01/2023 17:17

First view showed the real Ron Weasel....I'm praying to the island gods for someone to come in for Lana!

Capitane · 30/01/2023 17:28

Ron Weasley!

Lana is very beautiful. Samie is very average looking, not unattractive but I certainly wouldn’t say beautiful. I don’t get the fuss at all.

I think Zara’s alright, hard work but more trustworthy than Olivia. Olivia comes across as smug and manipulative.

Zampa · 30/01/2023 17:52

Ellie's done the whole "you must keep it secret" talk to Will, knowing full well it will come out. It's a brilliant tactic

RocketsMagnificent7 · 30/01/2023 18:00

von1471 · 28/01/2023 22:44

At the risk of being asked why am I on this thread then. I have been watching Love Island UK and Australia for several years and either I’ve grown tired of the format suddenly or this is the most boring series that I’ve ever seen. Is it me?

I can't disagree, but I also can't seem to stop watching.

I think part of it for me this year, is there's no one I find even remotely attractive amongst the boys. No big personalities bringing the fun or drama. Will is just cheesy rather than witty or laugh-out-loud funny. There's no one I'm rooting for or even anyone I love to hate.

The whole show needs a massive overhaul.

MotherofKitties · 30/01/2023 18:15

We need some Chris 'the salmon' Taylor's and Ovie's - guys with something about them that are watchable!

Aw Ovie, now there was a man and a half! ❤

They were two of the best bombshells ever (though Ovie was Casa Amor). Both had personality, a sense of humour and Ovie was simply beautiful.

Just one like would make the world of difference.
