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!

I wasn't referring to you specifically 💞

I know ☺️💕

😂😂😂

Thanks for pointing it out....perhaps a Freudian slip on my part cos he does act like "a Tyrone" sometimes. most of the time 😂

I haven’t slated Ella OG either, the only thing I’ve commented on is that she seemed so much lighter and at ease with Ouzy, genuinely think Tyrique has been toxic for her.
she has an amazing figure.

Does Ella B really think he said "too good to be true" instead of fake? Or is she just saving face? Why hasn't anyone told her?!

On the other hand - Ella B’s ‘that’s not my problem’ to Mitch had me cheering.

a lot of posters have been really unpleasant about her.
I agree re Ouzy - altho when her family were on Aftersun, they all said no way when they were asked if she should have stuck with Ouzy, for some reason

I do not think the ‘you’re selfish’ comment was delivered tactfully at all. And Whitney persisted to the bitter end. It was actually quite bullying and much as I don’t agree with everything OG Ella said and did, she didn’t deserve this treatment.

As for direct, Whitney proved she cannot take anything back even when part of a challenge, especially as she and Lochan said quite brutal things themselves during that challenge. Directness works both ways.

And quite frankly, if she is dishing out that much unsolicited advice, she is smug. I’m glad Ella B and Mitch gave them one vote. It will hopefully give Whitney something to think about.

Yeah the thing with Ella was really horrible, I said the same at the time, she kept going at her, even when she was upset, kept repeating it over and over

I now just want Zach and Molly to win. Even though it was odd that Molly was brought back, I think Zach could have won with Kady too.

I really liked the way Z and M took all the criticism they got in that couples challenge. He has shown good humour throughout. He also fancies the pants off Molly. There was a little quiet moment between the two of them where he said "I just want to get all your clothes off" and it was so private they had to put a sub-title on it, which they hardly ever do. I don't think that was set up.

I like Lochan too. And Jess. And Ella B. And original Ella. But they are all in troublesome couples.

I agree @LindorDoubleChoc

I do agree with everything you have said. But definitly Zach is my favourite by far over Molly. But as a couple they come first at the moment for me.

Could not have put this better myself. Can't stand Whitney now.

I see opinions are divided on her on here. We will have to agree to disagree. No matter what anyone says, I am not changing my mind. And I doubt others will either.

This lady's not for turning either!

Very interesting

I don’t know whether Zack could have won with Kady. He brought out an insecure side to her that we didn’t see with Ouzy. This would have possibly caused issues similar to those between Scott and Abi, where Abi was looking for constant reassurance.

That TikTok is interesting. I would never have thought Molly to be aloof. If this is real, it may be that she’s more of an introvert rather than snubbing them? Idk.

Be interested to hear what Ella says about the selfish argument when she's out, it's heavily edited and seemed to come out of nowhere and Whitney appeared to keep going on about it randomly, but I'd be intrigued as to how it actually went down. Since the vote for favourite couple the things they have shown Whitney do has markedly change, its either that they gave a favourable edit before for some reason, she's changed a lot, or they are doing this to engineer the final they want. Abi has said she liked her and her advice was often on the nose- again it's edited so who knows whether people ask for advice and input or not rather than her just giving it.

Hmm, that's interesting. I'd definitely segregate myself too, as it'd be too full-on for me. But then I'm not a LI candidate, so it's odd to want to be on LI but not get involved in anything off camera

I feel like Kady has a lot to say and has her own motives for doing so. When you're filmed a lot of the time, living with people 24/7 in a pressurised environment I don't think someone 'switching off' when not filming (which is part of Saturdays and for meal times except breakfast right so not actually long really) isn't that crazy. I don't think it suggests she's fake or hates them all, it sounds like she knows what she needs to stay sane, I'd be the same as I need time to myself and not burn out socialising.

I agree with pps on Whitney and how she is too strong with her point of view. I have gone off her.

The only thing about the selfish argument - I too would find it annoying if I was waiting for a shower and someone jumped the queue ahead of me - which I think is where the argument stemmed from. Maybe Ella is like that 24-7 who knows

I don't think Kady would have been a worthy winner at all. It's quite ironic what she's said about Mitch, as to me it came across she done exactly the same. I felt everything she done was engineered for dramatic effect, followed by the wide eyed, innocent stare. Even not kissing Zach appeared to be to build up a storyline.

All her chats seemed very stilted and not at all authentic. She clearly tried to cause trouble between Zach and Molly with that 'cheers'. I didn't like her at all.

I really can't understand why anyone would want Zach to win. He's the most fake one in there. His mother and sister didn't speak with the same accent as him. It's completely put on. I can't find anything likeable about him.

A lot of kids speak like that these days though, despite their parents not. I also heard his sister say "ting" so she's at least got a bit of the jargon!

As irritating as I find it personally, there's a big difference between having picked up a pretentious accent in school, and being an arch manipulator. I don't think Zach is the latter - although until the last couple of days I would have said he was making the best of a bad job with Molly.

But the under his breath 'i wanna rip your clothes off' thing seemed genuine and the I love you seemed more sincere than I would have expected. I think he's lovely - not perfect, but in the context of Mitch and Sammy and Tyrique...

I really really really dislike Mitch - but I do agree with a previous poster that there might be some ND blurting going on. He's often reminded me of the naughty kid at primary school, a hyper bull in a china shop, seemingly powered by something beyond his control.

Though that only accounts for about 30% of it I think. The remaining 70% is pure Mitch shittiness.

eh? My kids don't speak like I do - they speak like their pals
