Love Island thread 2 - Love a man who’s not for everyone!

[FiloPasty]

Thought I’d start a new thread as we’ve run out of space on the old one!

And, presumably the kirby grips are to keep them in place?

Ugh these games 🤮

Today's focus is Scott's heavily plucked eyebrows and realising much I don't like change. All these new people is too much for me to keep up with. All the conversations seem so fake or something. Really cringe inducing.

Zac... I'm not convinced he is as pleased to see Molly as he is trying to make out. Also found him very difficult to make out during that first chat with Molly.

Will be very interesting to watch Tyrique as the only "closed off" person.

What is it with ouzis hair clips? I think I'm too easily distracted. I don't mean to come off as rudely.

Will catch up on the thread once I finish this episode

*dreads

Thanks 😊

Presumably...

But they're dreads, not "unruly afro"

I agree with Zac not being as pleased to see Molly....his initial reaction was telling (he looked as though she had ruined his Christmas! 😂)...but I'm sure he did some mental maths afterwards and worked out that it was expedient to go with her

Doesn't exist in my world and is of no interest to me. I don't care who people are related to, just judge them on their behaviour I guess.

You seem unhealthily obsessed with Molly.

Kady is not interested one bit in any of the lads. It’s reported she has a boyfriend outside so it looks like she was brought in purely to push Molly out so the Molly show fiasco could flow nice and easy.
Im not bothered about Molly either way but the scripting and messing with this show is insulting to viewers.
Its just another MOC now.
Hoping Big Brother will go back to basics and give us real life no messing action.
I’m not liking Elom for Catherine. Why is she falling for all his bullshit. The girls know the lads are just desperate for a place in the main villa so why fall for it.
I didn’t like the way he grabbed the back of her neck to bring her in for a (yogurty fruity🤢) heavy snog. Very forceful.

I think that Ouzy is growing his dreads and they are in that annoying “in between” phase when hair is not long enough to tie up yet , so you have to come up with creative ways to cope with it.

The poster is providing some context around why Zach talks the way he does and that it’s likely to be genuine. I don’t think the accent you speak with can be classed as behaviour.

Copied this from a FB post I saw, but I did laugh out loud at the scene last night and at the cheekiness/rudeness of Ty and for a moment thought "yes - he is echoing what a lot of people are thinking re Molly & Zach and the blah blah blah move along-ness of it all"

(Copied bit)

Not the exact dialogue
Ty to Molly and Abby: how you doing?
Molly: I do need to talk to Zach, about us. I didn’t like anything I’ve seen, I need to speak to him where he sees us going
Ty: Anyway that’s all done. How are you Abby?

I loved that too, made me chuckle. I bet some of the lads are annoyed Molly's in Casa - one less new girl for them to get to know and they know Molly is likely to report their behaviour back to the girls when they return.

I hope Ella picks Ouzy, she's like a different person around him, much happier.

I don’t think Molly was particularly close to the main villa girls so I don’t think she’ll discourage the Casa girls from making their moves.

Kady is so pointless just go
Agree Ouzy is a man, Ty is a boy. Ouzy much calmer and chilled and Ella miles happier.
Poor Danielle getting zero airtime seems to have ended up with Montel who also gets very little exposure
Molly comes across as needy I would laugh if Zach dumped her and tried a new girl

Catching up on last night. I really like Ouzy. He seems like a really decent guy and he's so handsome. I like how Ella is with him - if she doesn't couple up with him and goes back to Ty it will be a travesty.

Not seeing much point in Kady being there, or Molly to be honest. Neither are really bringing anything. If they had a genuine connection then it would be nice to watch it develop, but so far the only genuine spark I've seen between any of the couples are Ella and Ouzy, and to a lesser extent, Leah and Montel. Everyone else seems forced or awkward.

I wonder when the girls will return to the villa? Intrigued to see who will pick who in the recoupling.

Both Ben and Danielle don’t seem to be getting any air time at all

@Cosycover

I'm not jealous of Molly at all.
She just doesn't have much of a personality and it bores me to watch her. I'd rather be entertained.

This. ^

@Sparkleshine21 The people not being super-positive about Molly, and wishing she hasn't come back etc, are not jealous - or being bitchy at all. They are merely stating their views on her. (And that they're not a fan of hers.) Why the hell would anyone be 'jealous' of her? What a dumb thing to say.

As I said earlier in the thread, I don't dislike her, but I do find her return pointless and annoying. As a PP said, the vibe in the villa is a bit 'off' with her there, and the boys seems on edge, and as a previous poster said, I reckon Zach feels he HAS to gravitate back to Molly now. He was perfectly happy with other girls and now it looks like he's going to be stuck with Molly. Him trying to kiss her last night, and her pulling away and saying 'not yet!' was utterly cringeworthy, and like her return the other night - and her chat with Zach, it felt staged and contrived.

As has been said @Sparkleshine21 you seem bizarrely fixated on, and obsessed with Molly. Not a single poster here has been horrible about her. People have just said they are not keen on her and they wish she hadn't returned.

I agree with the poster I quoted, Molly seemed OK when she first came in, but now she seems a bit boring with very little personality.

You seemed annoyed at someone suggesting you are her mum for defending her so fervently, but it's no worse than the batshit suggestion that people are 'jealous' of Molly if they're not a fan. On Twitter, people rejoiced when she was kicked out. She is not a popular contestant, and it's clear she is only in there to raise her social media profile(s.) I guess that could be said of some of the others, but Molly seems extra desperate for the attention/screen time.

If it's the usual timeline, recouping will be Thursday night and they will do a vote for favourite couple at the end of Friday's episode to get rid of some dead wood (not to mention having enough beds! )

Did anyone notice Mitch do a slight neighhhhh when she said she was a horsey girl, made me laugh as I think it was not even deliberate.
Ella seems so chilled and happy with the Casa one, can’t remember his name.
I find it interesting that the two people who LI producers are focusing on, Molly and Cady are not interesting as it’s so scripted.
I think Zach is basically a bit lazy and has realised the deal with Molly. She’s pretty so I think he will just go along for the ride now. I hope they don’t win.
Jess makes me laugh.
Dennis Wise’s daughter looks so young. Sometimes the girls have quite a young face still and although very pretty, too young for all the sleazy games imho.
Mitch had to be sent someone who’s fancy him or pretend to.

There's always at least one boy and one girl who get no air time whatsoever in Casa Amor. I find it unfair on the contestants and really strange when so much of Love Island is repetitive twaddle.

Last night DH and I watched the episode where the girls went to Casa Amor and then the following morning. There were two identical "chats" between Catherine and Elom - "so how are you? I'm good. Where's your head at? well I'm with Scott but not closed off" yada yada yada and they were about 5 minutes apart in the programme! One before bed and one the following morning! Let's see something more interesting FFS! At least a bit of ALL the contestants.

Poor Zach - this Molly debacle is really not fair on him. I guess Whitney has really gone down the pecking order now and that's a shame.

Jess isn't going to take back that 14 year old is she? 😉

Zach has decided to get his eyes on the prize I reckon. Shit or bust.

Molly reminds me of Amy Hart a wee bit. Not so much looks-wise but in her manner. Potential for ugly crying in the beach shack.

The Zack Molly situation is so boring. It is meant to be the greatest Love Island twist ever but she literally came in said ‘We need talk’ and that was it……was back in his bed by sundown. Now hoping Kady causes some drama when she returns as otherwise I don’t see the point of Molly come back.

Not sure what you're trying to take issue with. Kirby grips stop unruly hair. Afro hair is usually what dreads are used in.
