Love Island Thread 5: Roasted Crickets With a Side of Nobhead

[YoSof]

Did someone make a new thread already? I’ll get this deleted if so but I couldn’t see one!

Yawn.
It's such a weird series. Don't see any chemistry.
The dates are always stilted but tonight's feels so stilted.
Have they gone in the order of least to most popular?

I agree ink.

Barely paid attention tbh. I saw the start of Ty and Ella’s date. They got a good one. Def on the producers favourite list alongside Zac and Molly. Ending on Ty and Ella gives an evening of social media reaction with that date being the last thing in people’s minds.

I expect the two dates tomorrow will not be as good. One may be a boat or helicopter as that’s something they often do, which looks impressive but is boring to watch and not so romantic tbh.

Do they usually string final dates over multiple episodes? I can’t remember.

And then soon after the bores of final dates we have the girls picking dresses, boys learning a dance stupidly and then never seemingly doing it later that night and the inane speeches. 😴

So glad this is going to be over soon and I get 6+ hours a week back (I have to give myself Saturdays off and miss Unseen Bits because I just wouldn’t cope).

I'm not defending Mitch but I think the fake comment was to justify being voted out next and not particularly well thought through. Very interesting that the producers then text them their date details whilst everyone was still asleep giving him zero chance to speak to Ella B.
Obviously he could then have said something on their date but I suspect he'd mentally scheduled the exclusive chat and the fake accusations just didn't tie in.

I don't think he's the brightest chap.

Mitch and Ella B's vote was definitely a tactical one.

The final dates are usually in one show I think but there's normally only 4 couples by then (again, I think).

I can't wait for Mitch to go. He is outrageous and it's a hard watch now. I don't know why Ella B has gone back to him and forgiven him. I'd rather keep my pride and be voted out tbh. Someone also needs to tell her that he said she was fake because that's outrageous. She's really grown on me, I think she's so sweet

Mitch's parents coming in really highlighted why he is the way he is. His mom is just as bad as him and clearly endorses the behaviour. He thinks the sun shines out her arse so whatever she says is gospel. Ridiculous through and through

I agree, I really like her now.

So not all bad - looks like there won't be any bloody babies this year - hallelujah!

or is there still time? 🧐

Just seen Insta - so Xach told Molly he loves her??? Hmmm it’s so hard isn’t it. I loved Jessie & Will last year and felt they got messed with and they are still together. So hard to know what’s genuine.

I think Zach has fallen for Mawlie. He's always touching her, stroking her arm etc when they are sitting together during the day. He seems more smitten than she is IMO.

I still can't muster any love for Tyrique - although I think he does genuinely like Ella... at the moment... she's all that has been available to him for the last 6/7 weeks and when they leave the villa it's going to be sweetshop time for Ty. But he'll probably style it out for a while.

I think Z does like M a lot.

I zoned out during Mitch and Ella's date - did we see them becoming exclusive? I saw some of the date then heard them telling everyone they were exclusive and seem to have missed it actually happening

The whole Molly barbie pink date night was cringe - Zack the cool street boy in some pastel shirt was pretty dire ☺️ Ella B should have dumped his sorry ass - I'm convinced Mitch is unhinged!! Complete sabotage as he knows they will be out next. The boy doesn't know what day it is and the lies that have come out of his mouth! Bizarre! Whitney is a girls girl, she was right to speak up, I'd want to be told. She doesn't mince her words and I like that about her.

I LOVE that Callum and Molly from 2020 are still together ❤️

Found tonight's episode mostly a bit boring ... Don't buy Molly and Zach, and Mitch is still a twat!

Literally praying they don't do the baby challenge this year. It's been done to death! 🙄

I seriously don't remember them at ALL...

Just googled them, and still don't remember them.

Nice looking couple though. She is gorgeous! 😍

Callum was with Shaughna until Casa, then he brought back Molly.
Shaughna was single and said "Congrats...hun" to them.
Molly was absolutely lovely, as a person and to look at ❤️

Oh I remember Shaughna well, but cannae remember Callum or Molly! Maybe coz they didn't make waves/weren't controversial etc...

Glad they are happy. They look gorgeous together!

Her figure is ridiculous. Forget PYT- I think the high fashion houses need to come for her.
Maybe they won't because LI is considered low brow

Oh god, yeah, I hate the fake babies episode!

Lol 😆
Shaughna was obsessed with him but he ultimately couldn't get past a friendship. They were together from day one until Casa

Reading the info on the islanders, Scott's 'ick' was clingy, needy girls. Abi didn't stand a chance!

Sorry, I'm not a fan of Ella B. I don't think she likes Mitch, don't think those were genuine tears- couldn't manage to squeeze them out with him but had real tears in front of the girls because when people show compassion/pity for you it makes you cry?

Wonder what happened hmm…

a bit off topic but I didn’t realise Leah was as old as 27. I thought Montel was younger than he is too. Not that 27 is old but Leah comes across as younger and she looks younger too. She must be one of the ones who doesn’t get cosmetic surgery then because that ages a lot of them.
