Haha sorry yeah I did say it was deliberate.

Meh. I stand by it.

I wouldn't put it past ty. Let's put it that way.

PenguinIce · 12/07/2023 10:50

Not a big fan of Kady but if she can end Ty’s strange hold over the others in the villa I am all for it.

@Twonewcats I didn't say it was deliberate. Just saying there was no remorse and they all enjoyed it.

It's not what I'd expect to have seen had they cared. Normally you'd get 'oh bro man' and some vague sympathies towards him. They all just laughed.

Ty was in hysterics.

you did say they did it deliberately - that's why I asked! :D
I know what you mean though - they laughed in a shocked way but didn't seem to be apologetic

Also, hats off to Montell for actually mentioning a woman's intelligence rather than body, face, eyes, smile, blah blah

He cares very much about (evidence of?) academic achievement. He has a degree. It matters to him. Almost the first thing he asked Leah was - Do you have a degree? She gulped and then ‘admitted’ (her tone) it was in Dance. You could see him taking a moment to consider whether this would be good enough to present to his parents and friends … (Who must be inordinately proud of him.) She passed …

tbf I've just watched it back on TikTok, and Ty does look a bit shocked, and Scott is laughing too - so he doesnt appear to be too upset

Me too that’s why I voted for her and Ouzy. He’s a gorgeous specimen as Zac stated but it would be nice to see if there’s more to him. I think Kady is old and wise enough to really take Ty down a peg or two and I’m totally here for it, whether it’s a fake romance or not :)

Soulcurry · 12/07/2023 11:29

I’m so over this season, given that Molly-Zach and Ty-Ella being the strongest couples shows how lownthe bar is. We atleast had some heart warming genuine moments with couples in the previous seasons.
Catherine fumbled the bag so hard, to think she and Scott would’ve easily made it to top 4. I still don’t understand how she went to literally hating him overnight. If there was any evidence of Scott playing games I’m sure we would’ve seen something on screen. Poor sod would still go back to her if she dumps Elom.

StandingHereLikePiffy · 12/07/2023 11:55

If Scott /Amber are in the bottom 3 then it's hardly going to be a shocking decision if it's left to the other islanders to choose who goes.

If we're playing by the supposed rules of the game then of course they should be the ones to go... but now that the show has seemingly 'jumped the shark' I would just love there to be a UK public voting 'Boaty McBoatface' moment and for them not to be in the bottom 3 (or bottom 4 - looking at you LI producers...) 😆

Peanutbutteryday · 12/07/2023 12:08

I’m a little behind but honestly so confused at the treatment of Scott. Leah has been so rude to him and forced Scott to apologise but I didn’t hear her apologise. Confused. Can’t stand Catherine or Leah now.

buzz91 · 12/07/2023 12:08

Just watched last nights. Did no one have anything bad to say to Whitney and Lochan (can understand no one having anything to say, they’re lovely!), usually they’d use a no-couple like Amber and Scott because they’re an easy pick (ie just after Scott as usual).

Kady and Ouzy are just so wooden! She doesn’t know how to act it out sometimes and just does the high pitched “cute!”, but I did kind of enjoy her going after Ty and Ella! Ty doesn’t seem to often think of past behaviour, you hear him being annoyed that people are acting a certain way and it’s kind of obvious why!

I do think we often see behaviour like Catherine’s, quickly getting over different couple dumpings, moving on fast when she seemed happy, angry at the ‘ex’ etc. but in the past it’s been from guys not girls. She admits she’s never been in a relationship, or been in love, and I think she just doesn’t want either, she’s here for some fun. I don’t understand how she can’t see how bad she comes across especially with her reactions to Scott, but I don’t think she necessarily cares.

Compatibility - so Scott and Amber will get dumped but not sure who else (if the papers are to be believed and there are a few people going), I went to write out who I wanted to leave then realised couple wise the only one I don’t is Whitney and Lochan (though don’t mind Molly and Zach, they’re very much keeping to themselves now and I like that they’re not in fake drama situations)! Would love it though if Scott and Amber don’t end up at the bottom - imagine the anger from a legitimate “couple “ if the public vote them lower than a leftovers couple!!

PenguinIce · 12/07/2023 12:35

In last series when they have done compatibility votes hasn’t it just been one of each couple has to go. Maybe one person from each of the bottom 2 couples to go tonight. Although wouldn’t be surprised if four people go as they need to fit them all back into the one bedroom.

And also why haven’t they brought in more bombshells!!

EddieHowesShithousingMags · 12/07/2023 12:38

I have seen a LOT of support on Twitter and elsewhere for Scott and Amber with so many people saying they have voted for them.

PicturesOfDogs · 12/07/2023 13:15

Both Gabby and Danielle have come out saying they thought Scott was a lovely boy, and they don’t know what the issue is.

I think Medhi said the same?

It’s just groupthink now

Whenlifegivesyoulemonsmakelemonade · 12/07/2023 13:37

First Look - the producers are at it again with Kady stirring the pot! Do you think she was told to ask Molly if she wanted to be closed off with Zach? Seems like to much of a co-incidence to me!

Pepsimaxcherry91 · 12/07/2023 13:50

@Whenlifegivesyoulemonsmakelemonade Agreed

Whitneys reaction. I think she receives the text about who’s going home

Whenlifegivesyoulemonsmakelemonade · 12/07/2023 13:56

@Pepsimaxcherry91 I think so too, and from her reaction it must be someone she wasn't expecting, like Catherine maybe!

Mapples · 12/07/2023 13:57

I really liked the first few weeks of this series, it seemed like the cast were a good mix, they had the lighthearted challenges back etc but its boring now to me. Not sure if it's just been on too long, whether there are no strong couples or whatever but can't even be bothered to watch now. Bringing Kady back was a mistake, there was no way she was going to act like she did the first time but she hasn't really brought anything else really.

StandingHereLikePiffy · 12/07/2023 15:22

Twitter is saying the couple with the fewest votes is dumped immediately. Then later on in the evening a 2nd text comes with a 2nd dumping. And lots of tears and shocked reactions.

Bit of a new twist from the producers then if that's the case.

Siameasy · 12/07/2023 15:27

Kady having a go at TyElla was entertaining but it feels scripted. The Molly thing with her did too. Really Eastenders

FiloPasty · 12/07/2023 15:43

I’m glad some people are going it’s about time!

For me, it's the fact that more or less every single episode follows the same format: pulling each other for chats in the daytime, get ready for nighttime, 'cheers', pull each other for chats, go to bed, get up, chat about what we all saw earlier in the episode, rinse, repeat 😮‍💨

Agree with all of this. I loved the start and that the public coupled them up etc.
But the fun seems to have stopped and it's all having chats with no real feeling behind the eyes

After9 · 12/07/2023 17:39

Just seen that 4 islanders have been dumped

buzz91 · 12/07/2023 18:17

Yeah, people in there's have got used to the format now, there’s only so much they can do to change it up.
In contrast, I’m watching the first series for the first time, and wow it’s a car wreck, an entertaining car wreck
