Who will go with them? Is there time for new bombshells? 12 days to go. Bring it.

I thought Casey was a pretty good sport at the challenge unlike Ron and Lana who seem to rate themselves pretty highly.

I hate Casey but I actually agree that he took the challenge in his stride whereas Ron/Lana and Jessie really took it to heart and got super offended.

XelaM · 04/03/2023 23:33

It's clear from the challenge that Tom/Samie and Kai/Sanam are the two most popular couples

almondfinger · 05/03/2023 00:35

Had to give up on extra bits last night. It was lots of Ron and Lana touching. As if the producers are reading the room/forums and filling this show with what they need to get their winners over the finish line.

Ian bloody Stirling rambling on about a plane. There must be actually v little going on for them to have so little extra to show us.

I think Jessie has the Ick. She said she hates when Will and Casey act the fool together. She possibly just hates Casey. Mind you, I’m struggling to believe Will is not gay. While being entertaining, he would annoy the crap out of me

Lana looks like she is bored rigid and just waiting to go home.

Sanam and Kai keep to them selves - boring for viewers. That hideaway was cringe. As people have said it’s a horror show of a room with tacky props that sexualise the girls.

Shaq and Tanya keep to themselves - probably for the best as they are just irritating.

Rosie hasn’t an original thought in her head. She doesn’t seem to have made any friends in there. That can’t be easy. She has v strange breasts.

Sammi and Tom for the win for me. She is stunning and seems so straight forward. Tom has redeemed himself. Mind you, Olivia played a big part in the mayhem of his first few weeks. Thankfully she is out.

I’m willing it to be over. I may just follow the last week on mumsnet and the daily fail recap.

As a pp poster said, I've also wondered how Iain feels about it all, since it seems Laura was pushed out. I think they thought it'd make them the new power couple but it fell flat.
Laura has made some digs re the show since leaving

worriedMamma3 · 05/03/2023 09:59

This is the worst series I've watched and I've seen them except series 2.

The best one for me was the Kem/Amber/Olivia Attewood/Chris Hughes one.

It’s a pay check and he did it without her before they even got together.

She was awful. How she used to question people on Aftersun was so awkward.

I'm still enjoying it. However watching last nights made me realise why they're showing us what they do in the main show. There's not a lot of stuff happening and last night felt like watching Big Brother (which I enjoy, but isn't the reason I watch LI).

That's the thing... it must be hard to find material when most of the time it's just boring in there. Viewers either moan it's boring or it's too contrived, but producers have to initiate some conversations or there won't be enough content.

I'm not sure why some posters watch when they clearly aren't enjoying a second of it. We fortunately have many more channels to choose from!

TheDutchHouse · 05/03/2023 14:02

First look !
Well , Rosie is a little mixer isn't she !
She's twisted what Ron has said , to an audience . I don't like Casey much but why is she trying to wind him like that ?

CrkdLttrCrkdLttr · 05/03/2023 14:22

Oh wow! First Look is hilarious!

I suspect the producers walked Rosie through every step of that convoluted taradiddle. Hmm

CrkdLttrCrkdLttr · 05/03/2023 14:24

Both Rosie and Ron, actually.

They do seem to be running out of actual content …

It's my belief that Jessie's strategy has gone awry and she hasn't got a plan B.

I believe she was brought in to get with Will and went for it. That she isn't interested in him at all. That the plan was strong coupledom followed by a couple of reverses, the redemption arc and sail on to the winnings. Then dump after a few public appearances [long distance too hard blah blah boo hoo etc].

Her first mistake was over-playing her part on movie night. She's often posited that 'boss-bitch' is something to be aspired to and admired and I reckon that's the persona she was developing. She then compounded that mis-step by wading in on the Casey situation.

Oh damn. Now I'm stuck with Will and I won't win.

That's why the tears.

That is 100 per cent correct. Poor Jessie!

MackenCheese · 05/03/2023 14:34

And I'd add that she probably did like him at first, but he seems less funny somehow and she has now got the ick very close to the final!!😱

Boulshired · 05/03/2023 14:48

Casey has gone for the humour angle, like Chris from season 5. He initially lays it on thick to ensure the girl but he overplayed his hand, Rosie had the added bit of drama but Claudia had made her own friends so didn’t need the attention from Casey. He smiled at the challenge but it would have annoyed him and his answer is to mess around with the lads. Waiting for main show to see if Ron has been edited if not then Rosie just done him bad.

I thought that the other day, she's a proper shit stirrer. I don't think she's as nice as people think she is.

I agree that the season with Kem/ Chris/Olivia A was the best
Kem and Chris’ friendship was lovely.
Laughed at Kem referring to Jamie as a ‘sexy Jesus’

A poster above said about Sanam being really uncomfortable in the hide-away. I don't think she's a "put on a thong and lick chocolate sauce off each other on camera" type of girl and I also thought she looked really uncomfortable throughout and the next morning. I really felt sorry for her

She looked unhappy after the hideaway

I haven't seen First Look but have already thought it's obvious she's a shit stirrer. She's also not very bright, as she knew the public's opinion of Olivia, yet happily joined in with her over the Jessie stuff. Silly girl 🙄

vjg13 · 05/03/2023 17:06

I never thought Rosie was nice! And I can't stop looking at her boob situation now it's been pointed out, is that the result of a bad boob job?

MrsJessePinkmann · 05/03/2023 17:20

I think Casey seems to be getting a bit too lairy for his own good. Him and his little miss shit stirrer should be the next couple to vacate the villa IMO.

It can be a naturally occurring medical condition. Charlotte from Geordie Shore had it and had a boob job to fix it.

I thought that too! And she also must have known Casey wasn't popular after Casa, yet decided to go for him. I don't even think she's pretty.

Boulshired · 05/03/2023 17:31

Casey is going to be devastated when he realises most of his efforts were relegated to unseen bit. He’s no different to the rest of them he had his plan of action and it hasn’t gone well. Rosie & Keenan had to break up a couple but she hasn’t got the time to form bonds and has resorted to stirring for screen time. It must be difficult Casey is with the lads and the lads girlfriends prefer the ex.

chronictonic · 05/03/2023 17:31

Never warmed to Rosie.
Find her a bit obnoxious. It's hard though to judge a bombshell fairly as they have to put on a lot of 'bravado'...
Being nice like lovely Keenan didn't work out well for him.
