Can I join?! I've been in hospital all week and got released tonight...

I'm catching up on this weeks episodes..

I hate how MAFS make me love couples because then there'll be drama and I just can't cope..

I'm also on liquid morphine (can you believe they just give you a bottle? To take to your house ?! ).

Anyway..

Love Jay and Luke.. her sister fucked me off going on about her arm., no wonder she's fucking anxious and conscious!!!!! 🤬🤬

Laura and Arthur.. initially thought she was a but Morag but now I'm getting Sophie and johnathan vibes.. I like arthur tho so hope he's lovely!!

Ella and Nathanial... Nathanial says he doesn't care about gender/sex etc but I suspect he doesn't want everyone to know that she is a transwoman whereas acrtally I suspect Ella is proud of this and has such a supportive family.. Ella thinks then that she had to revert to being overtly sexual/needing intimacy to validate that she IS a woman and worthy of a man wanting her. The transphobia in calling her "Fella" is disgusting and I hope MN delete those posts!

I think I'm going to enjoy this series!

That's the ONLY reason for watching CGD surely? I was very disappointed not to find a thread on here about it. Not nearly enough people were talking about how appalling Vanessa Feltz behaved on the episodes o watched.

What did Vanessa do?

Villagetoraiseachild · 22/09/2023 23:44

Was a little worried that Luke was doing the ring fiddling of doom (just begun watching), but then saw the ring is on his left pinkie, so possibly just the wrong ring size? Ever the love optimist here.....

Those little star tattoos Luke has on his neck.

Isn't there some urban myth about what they mean

Lalgarh · 23/09/2023 01:55

He's only just featured in this episode but I'm hating Georges already

JaneJeffer · 23/09/2023 02:32

Watching TOTP 1995 and Mark Goodier is the spit of Georges

Italiangreyhound · 23/09/2023 03:21

Tasha is totally lovely. I really hope things work out for her and Paul.

Placemarking and just adding I was very concerned for Ella jumping in that cave pool. I had breast implants for around 15 years and that sort of jump is not advisable especially given that she has no natural beast tissue and those implants are big, her skin is really stretched. Also implants get cold really, really quickly. I've had mine out andI love swimming again but when I had them they got cold and uncomfortable really quickly and they stay cold for ages. Not a great bonding experience she must of been feeling really unsafe.

I have implants, and while I never go cave diving (!) I don't find they get cold, or stay cold or anything 🤷‍♀️

someladdersandsnakes · 23/09/2023 08:20

@bleughgreen Gemma from last year must also be XY then I guess

HelpMebeok · 23/09/2023 08:50

Nikita was a bit like that too. Two series ago. I do think Ella has not found her place as a women yet and is very defensive and feels she has to look like that so people know she's a woman. I know a young trans women in real life who is the same.
I also the people calling her fella are not thinking of the damage they are doing to other peoples mental health.

He doesn't care if she's trans, he just wants her to act in a way that most women would act and I don't know any woman who would behave like that.

He doesn't want Ella to behave 'in a way most women would act', he just wants Ella to behave in a decent way regardless of M or F. The behaviour isn't very nice for anyone to be around or appealing from a partner.

someladdersandsnakes · 23/09/2023 09:44

@bleughgreen Ella was being extremely crass in the exact same way Gemma was. I don't really see much difference in their behaviour. Stuff like that doesn't prove that a person is a man, that's just sexist stereotypes.

BIossomtoes · 23/09/2023 09:57

Please stop calling Ella “he”.

Peachtoiletpaper · 23/09/2023 09:59

Just caught up! I hope this doesn't become the Ella Show. The Jim (Up yer Bollox) Nan and Morag Show I would be here for.

Reserving judgement on NatElla- he didn't seem very compassionate when she was genuinely afraid of jumping in, but then she was not listening to him wanting time to get to know each other. I feel there's a lot that hasn't been seen yet.

I am really warming to Laura! Firm but fair headmistress vibes. I also think her face resembles Victoria Beckham if she had been a Finance Manager and not a superstar. Arthur seems a good lad but needs to decide who he is and what his views and principles are PDQ. 'path of least resistance' won't cut it with Laura.

Jay and Luke- was her sister putting her down or genuinely protective? I feel this might start extremely well and implode a la Booka and Brett or Jordan and Chanita
Few crude comments from him and I think polite laughs from her. Jay deserves more than just sex talk.

Zheorges and Peg- WTAF? His friends even seemed appalled! Is he on here as a bet?! Very cold eyed with her sister who has spotted something untoward. Unfriendly, dismissive and sarcastic with her jokey intro and attempt at French. Peggy seems very naive. I hope he doesn't just smarm her into bed then turn into a pant shitting dipstick immediately after.

Roz and whatshisname- not much in common. I think they'll see most of the process through but no more. She's steelier than the madcap persona implies so will hopefully get less annoying. Lord help them on sex box week.

Lord also help adorable tasha and paul when his ma sees them larking about with feather ticklers on TV for all the congregation to see!

Is it mostly hired houses for the families? Some of them look totally bare!

Some of the cosmetic procedures are making people look like they have survived horrific incidents. They also lose their individuality.

@bleughgreen you can think that if you want, but you were suggesting her behaviour has something to do with her sex, which it doesn't.

Agreed.

Italiangreyhound · 23/09/2023 12:48

I think it is really important to remember how contrived the whole thing is.

I think the producers love it when people say stuff or appear contrary!

I wouldn't be surprised if a producer or assistant had said to Rozz, do you feel awkward, was it awkward etc, to get her saying it a lot.

I'd really like to see Laura and Arthur make it, and Paul and Tasha.

I think Tom is lovely but Rozz is going to scare him off.
