It would be a good idea if they scrapped having minor celebrities kids on the show.

There are always people who want to couple up with them because of who their parents are. I really believe if Claudia was ordinary Claudia from Blackburn Casey would not have any supposed angst about stringing her along.

There needs to be a Channel 5 competitor. More spontaneous and less PG.

I would sack all the current producers and Ian Stirling, who is awful. No more IG cast recruitment. Just needs a total shakeup. The early seasons were a million times better.

Channel 5 competitor?

Agree about sacking all the producers, absolutely useless and treat it like kids TV and set up within an inch of its life.
Iain totally phoning ? it in for years and talks far too much.

I personally think that if Casey was with her for her celebrity dad, he'd have been more likely to stick with her.

I think Claudia is actually really attractive, her eyes are the most stunning colour. I like her northern down to earthness too. I find Rosie quite boring in comparison, although we've obviously not seen much of her yet to form a proper opinion. She just doesn't strike me as a very fun person. Can imagine having a giggle down the pub with Claudia.

Tubofroses · 27/02/2023 12:35

Bit mortified for claudia- I mean dating is like exploring options really and casey has been honest from what we have seen. I get it's intense in there but yikes.

Rollergirl11 · 27/02/2023 12:38

Also, been catching up on some podcasts and reminds me that why on movie night were we shown stuff that wasn't from casa - movie night used to be only stuff from casa - was there so little going on or was it they were desperate to find some beef (ie going all the way back to Zara for find something on Shaq)?

i’m pretty sure that Movie night isn’t just Casa stuff. Wasn’t a past movie night where Georgia (I’m loyal babe) got caught out lying about Jack Fowler kissing her on their date and then going back and telling Laura about it. Jack swore she was the one that went in for the kiss and movie night confirmed it?

Tubofroses · 27/02/2023 12:41

It's lost a lot of its appeal now I think, things to improve:

Show more of the 'fun' bits and the friendships.

More public votes and a way to ensure its not just the OGs voting to keep eachother in out of loyalty.

New twists- casa was good when it was a surprise but now they know the game and its boring.

More challenges.

Perhaps have boys and girls separated to start with so we get to know them. Also perhaps they could message (but not see) the other sex and then choose who to couple with based on that and move into the villa and meet their new couple? Something to change the formula we all know.

A different way to pick winners? Partly seems stale as they know how to win and so stick to this.

Rollergirl11 · 27/02/2023 12:45

Also keep meaning to say that on Unseen bits there was a clip of Claudia telling Tanya and Olivia gross stuff she does (weeing in the bath, poking toenail cheese out with a Kirby grip 🫣😂). It was all taken lightheartedly and everyone was laughing but I notice that Liv didn’t share anything with the other two in return. You just know she’s the kind of friend that will store up all that info and use it to humiliate them at a later date!

That proves my above comment... she'd be a fabulous pub pal 🤣🤣

Yes, Claudia seems like great fun and all the guys in there seem to really like her. I don't see anything special in Rosie at all. So I think Casey is a total idiot

TellingBone · 27/02/2023 13:59

Casey comes out with some rubbish. He really does. All this 'I'm a slow burner' stuff is a load of carp. Not what he said when he was with Lana was it? Bullshitter extraordinaire.

Ah ha! You're right, thank you!

kenyaswhiterefrigerator · 27/02/2023 14:08

@Rollergirl11 they interviewed Martin who didn't hold back about how he'd made it clear to Tanya he wouldn't go into the villa as a 'test' for her.

As soon as he arrived and Tanya saw Shaq again he knew it was over but she refused to tell him the truth then came out of nowhere with the speech.

So the main presenters and panel didn't go there but Martin did.

Also, Tanya seems so much less intense on Unseen Bits.

And Casey does seem a laugh, i quite like him, i don't think he's done much wrong, tbh

FiloPasty · 27/02/2023 14:31

First look is up, Snog, Marry, Pie

could be funny!

Agree, he's doing a Tom on me and I'm warming to him again. Maybe that's why they get along as they're so alike 🤔

I've noticed Casey's eyes dart about even when there's nobody in the vicinity, so I'm wondering if it's not a wandering eye thing after all.

Boulshired · 27/02/2023 15:34

I don’t think Casey has really shown much interest in any of the girls he’s been connected to, what he has done is placed himself at the centre for screen time, to his wallowing in self pity about Lana (a few days when it done to him is a long time), taking full advantage of Casa, and now as he knows he’s not in a power couple and the love triangle crap was over and done with he taken advantage of a bomb shell, who unless they are not showing is full of the same “grafting” crap as the rest of them. I feel sorry for Claudia, she really should have brought someone back from Casa as I guarantee Casey would have loved the win her back screen time.

MackenCheese · 27/02/2023 16:26

The recoupling was very predictable and boring!

kenyaswhiterefrigerator · 27/02/2023 17:27

They do these polls on the app, presumably so producers know who is most likely to be voted out by the public.

Will, Ron and Tom are top boys with Lana, Claudia and Samie for the girls.

Judging by the poll Casey would be better off sticking with Claudia. However Claudia would be better sticking with Keenan

Both Casey and Rosie, Olivia and Maxwell and Shaq and Tanya looking at risk. Probably why no vote !

Wow, there must be a lot of sheep voting 🤷

kenyaswhiterefrigerator · 27/02/2023 17:58

I'm guessing the producers are trying to decide whether to go for an most popular boy/girl or most popular couple.

XelaM · 27/02/2023 18:50

I wish it was for boy/girl to get Casey voted off or even if it's couples I wish Rosie/Casey would go

See I'd say the opposite, I feel like Claudia has some very harsh features, and feel Rosie is more attractive, yet to know personality wise but feel Claudia seemed quite self assured before Rosie came in the villa

CarpyDiem · 27/02/2023 18:59

Interesting poll results!

If you combine the results to produce couples ratings:

Ron & Lana - 48.2
Will & Jessie - 43.8
Tom & Samie - 35.7
Keenan & Claudia - 31.4

Kai & Sanam - 17.3
Shaq & Tanya - 13.9
Maxwell & Olivia - 5.9
Casey & Rosie - 4.0

Now if you had a couples vote and made the last 3 vulnerable, that would be interesting as I'd quite like to see Olivia's reaction! Also Claudia's
