MAFSUK - thread 9 This matchmaking lark is quite tricky. When some are decidedly picky. They’ll meet for a blether, and then get together, but only because they’re so sticky.

The show might have lost its appeal
For some that won’t be a big deal
It may just be snark
But they have jumped the shark
With the return of one I and P Beale.

And nip flashing peg? Brace yersel.

Just finished on catch up (only takes about 40 minutes with no adverts).

Laura is coming across more and more stuck up in every episode and obviously doesn’t like being called out on it. Probably not used to it as by looking at her friends she surrounds herself with people just as bad as her.

I remember from Arthur’s original VT that he goes out clubbing in Mayfair but they have made him out to be an urchin that Chelsea girl Laura has to train - like a reversed My Fair Lady

Also starting to think she is not an actual bride but a producer plant

Erica threw Jordan under the bus because she was influenced by the others.

The letters were supposed to be confidential. But because Tash threw a hissy fit at being criticised, she made the letter writer admit to it . She actually ruined the spirit of the task.

She also backed down when Georges said it was him.

MelsMoneyTree · 01/11/2023 22:41

Yy when Laura was acting as though Arthur would never venture to a Chelsea restaurant, I kept thinking has she never met a private tennis coach? They're not giving lessons in the car park at the back of Aldi.

What a load of old shite. On the plus side I finally worked out that Mark reminds me of Dermot O'Hare from Mulligan and O'Hare.

I bet she was hoping it was Erica and Jordan so she could have an excuse to go all gangster at Erica again.

SagaNorensPorche · 01/11/2023 22:52

Laura and her perceived poshness, isn't she from Portsmouth. 😂. The laugh is, I think Arthur is from Crouch End which is a very sought after area.

SwedishEdith · 01/11/2023 22:54

JJ claiming he always waits before he has sex with a new girlfriend. Clearly stalling for time with Ellar but also made me wonder if he hasn't really had m/any girlfriends.

SwedishEdith · 01/11/2023 23:03

I wonder if Sean has just found the whole experience unbearable. He was the shy "normal" lad when he joined. And not all relationships work - Mark needs to get his head around that.

SwedishEdith · 01/11/2023 23:05

Urgh, Laura's Ugly Sisters best friends are back tomorrow

Itisyourturntowashthebath · 01/11/2023 23:13

Laura's friends are awful.

The Wicked Witches of Chelsea will be reunited

It's all those fillers. They age all of them.

YES!

CherryCokeFanatic · 01/11/2023 23:53

What drug scandal are people referring to?

Don’t understand the comments about Sean being on drugs

He has just realised he is not feeling it that’s all. Don’t feel particularly sorry for Mark as we see so little of the couples I have no idea if they have been that close since the honeymoon or not. And we know he wanted someone to do all the cooking and cleaning etc so a bit of a knob.

Still dislike Erica and Jordan. Hopefully the smug proclaiming of being one of the strongest couples will die down in the short time until the end of the show.

Won’t be watching next year.

Twonewcats · 01/11/2023 23:55

I just read that Brad was also on Celebs Go Dating and also Dress To Impress 😖

Twonewcats · 01/11/2023 23:58

He looks so different 😦

top half he actually looks quite attractive, surprisingly.
bottom half, what even

MouseMinge · 02/11/2023 02:22

Top half, not unattractive. Bottom half, lady legs. Put your hand over the top half and it's two women out for a stroll, one of whom has a terrible taste in jeans.

My friend from Pompey would find it very amusing as it's not an upmarket place. I've come to like Laura but can't say the same for her friends. They're trying so hard to look like the Chelsea 'set' and it comes across as fake and affected.

(I have an uberly Chelsea friend and it's a different league of weirdly-named Binkies, Hetties and Bunnies which they're clearly not).

Thomas's house was totally not how I imagined. I expected a stylish flat in London, not a suburban family house. And I like Roz but the constant sex stuff is becoming a bit much.

MyGhastIsFlabbered · 02/11/2023 06:58

Why has nobody mentioned the horrors of Ella, Tasha and Adrienne's dinner party frocks? And were Tash and Adrienne's actually the same dress in different colours?

They need to take you on as a producer. Love the Mark and JJ pairing. Brilliant.
