I also have no idea why my contorting faces comment has been taken so personally, as though it's a specific insult to black people. It obviously isn't. I'm not aware black faces contort any more so than white ones. Most faces do when they're owned by not very nice people.

Hear hear!

In other news, did you see that there might be a Love Island All Stars show?!

Who would you want back? I'd definitely want I've and Chris the Salmon as well as Alexandra (who came in for Dr. Alex) and the posh blonde who came in for Hugo the PE teacher. And Samira Mighty!

Ovie!

Really?
But surely they couldn't come on claiming to be looking for love?😂

Ovie I'm sure would be a fave
Tommy and Molly were sweet and genuine
I thought the series with Amber and the other one with Dr Alex were the 2 best seasons I think, they all seem to merge into one after a while

What's his face from last summer did so why not?!

Please people, can we get back to the lighthearted thread we all know and love? I’d rather not trawl through pages of he said she said.

Can someone remind me what the middle-aged version of LI t that ITV are doing is called?

I’d love to see Chris and Kem back. And Maura!

Thank you. Well said

I don't understand how this would work - series one was 8yrs ago, and some contestants were older than today's lot. So mixing people in their (potentially) late 30s with early 20s could be a recipe for disaster

Maura was hilarious. And she really evolved and became quite sweet and a proper girl's girl. Would like to see her back

The popular ex islanders might be too expensive for ITV now though

I just wish they'd scrap the prize money. I don't know why they have winners at all 🤔
Things like MAFS do perfectly fine without people competing to win.

Also, scrap recoupling, and do phone voting recoupling instead

I'd kind of hope all my faves would have found love by now! Plus I would need to remind myself of them all again as can remember very few. And even the ones I do remember, I can never think who they were coupled with, despite me being so heavily invested at the time.

Just a reminder that Tommy is fighting tonight. I don't agree with boxing but shall make an exception tonight and watch through my hands 🙈

My problem with Tanya is that she keeps shutting Shaq down, saying he's overreacting and not allowing him to have feelings.

With Jessie I think her issue with Will is that she no longer knows who is the true Will. At first she thought he was a funny, loveable geek. But now she's seen Casa Amor footage and he's said he's slept with 100 women. So what is he actually like ?

The prediction is he'll be flattened 🫣
PS it's tomorrow, i think 🤔

Also, scrap recoupling, and do phone voting recoupling instead

Oh, I would love this!!!

Oh gawd, yes you're right, it's tomorrow! I just can't abide that Jake Paul, he's so arrogant, even for a "boxer' 🙄

Viewers voting especially over the last few series have promoted the “journey”, so whilst I have disliked Tanya I do think she’s overplayed her game plan. I am not sure she is the person she is presenting and may have been influenced by Ekin Su and Indiyah from last season but has failed miserably at delivering. Instead of fierce diva she’s provided gaslighting

If he does flatten him I wonder if Tommy will say "I'm getting my big brother on you" 😱 That should have him on his toes 😂

I love this idea too!

For an Allstars show… I guess they still have to be single now? Rules out a lot of them and some I have no idea about.

Agree Chris the Salmon and Ovie would be top of the list for the guys. I also liked Adam Maxted (so awkward and useless with women on the show). Theo (“I think if Tyla really liked him, then she should go as well really”). Luke Trott was really nice. Chris and Kem banter.

Girls too would be Maura. Georgia Steele (“I’m loyal boo”). Hayley Hughes (Brexit chat and is Liverpool a country or whatever it was). Chloe Burrows. You could do a selection of feisty ones like Kady McDermott, Anna Vakili, Faye Winters and Tanyel to hopefully have some screaming matches.

Nobody from this series or the last one I don’t think. Maybe Ekin.

Thing is it would all be shit as they mostly have established media careers to protect and care far more about their image than they did when originally in so most of their entertaining or dramatic qualities would be toned right down.

I agree which is why I didn’t engage further with certain posters
