New series starts on E4 on 26 February.

From DigitalSpy:

"The brand new season of MAFS Aus will arrive on the UK platform on Monday, February 26 at 7.30pm (followed by a new MAFS UK reunion at 9.30pm) – so set that date in your diaries"

That's my evenings for March and April sorted!!

Thread ready for our thoughts.

(If you have started watching by other means, please NO SPOILERS!)

Two Georges has become one and a half Georges.....

Ooh hooo, it's looking good.

But have then all had flipping Botox in their foreheads or have I forgotten what it's like to be 30?

Can't wait to see who sunburnt trout pout gets paired up with!

Just caught up! I hate the early episodes, I know I have to watch them to get all the background but, get me to the honeymoon/dinner party/commitment ceremony.

So, Tim & Sara - liked them to start and could see the sexual attraction but, things started to go downhill pretty quick. He's not careful with his words ("I need to to help me", "you need to relax") and she's hard work. Will be fiery, full of tears and walking off (and producers looking for them in the dark), performance flouncing!

Cassandra & Tristan - she is lovely and her Dad just perfect. He seems very sweet and full of the very best intentions. But, she needs a Man, someone to sweep her off her feet and look after her physically and emotionally. I'm not sure their relationship will be anymore than brother/sister and I'm not sure if she will be brave enough to tell him so.

The rest of them - can't remember any names yet - the older one with the odd voice scares me; the 'nerdy' one will either be this seasons sweetheart or will turn face and be the worse one; the gay guys are both very handsome; the girl in black with her boobs hanging out might be vacuous and a handful!

It's gonna be a wild ride if the opening sequence was any indication!

I'm going to have to watch the reunion another time. I'm all MAFSed out.

Saw most of it. I'd forgotten how truly vulgar most of them are. 🌹

MaggieFS · 27/02/2024 09:06

I agree @JellyBeanFactory , I thought Sara and Tim would be great, but he keeps putting his foot in it, and she seemed to immediately decide he couldn't be over his ex after six months, without giving it a moment to find out. I think they will be a rollercoaster and no idea where it will end up.

Cassandra and Tristan obviously both deserve someone lovely. I'm not sure about them... it could well end up in the friend zone.

kenyaswhiterefrigerator · 27/02/2024 12:41

I'm not is disagreement that someone who was in a six year relationship and about to propose probably needs a bit longer than 6 months to fully heal .

Especially since the application process would have taken a fair few months before the actual wedding

Rammy central.

Reunion as predicted.

Only with a more shiny chest.

There. Saved you 90 minutes.

JaneJeffer · 27/02/2024 17:39

Am I on the right thread?

Tim and Sara are not as good looking as they think they are, unless you like mucho teeth in which case they are gorgeous. Best Man is very scary 😨

Tristan reminds me of someone but I can't think who. Cassandra's dad is lovely.

I need to learn everyone's name.

dapsnotplimsolls · 27/02/2024 17:44

I can't watch live tonight so will have to watch it later, wahhhhh!

dapsnotplimsolls · 27/02/2024 17:45

Can you imagine if Tim and Sara had a kid? That baby would be born with a full set of gnashers!

JaneJeffer · 27/02/2024 17:48

It's not a good time for watching live so I'll watch later and skip all the ads. It's a stupid time to show it!

Chooba · 27/02/2024 18:00

Im travelling for work all week now so I'll be on trains when it's on and have to catch up at the weekend 🙄 this won't help me learn anyone's names!

NorthFaceofthelaundrypile · 27/02/2024 18:03

@JaneJeffer - he reminds me of Forest Gump! Very sweet!

Brumbies · 27/02/2024 18:06

Is it on tonight?

JaneJeffer · 27/02/2024 18:07

He's got Rainman vibes as well but there's someone else and it's doing my head in trying to remember!

It's on Mondays through to Thursdays I think? 🌹

Thanks 🙏🏻

I'm blessed in the teeth department. I have a small head and big white, slightly prominent teeth. I've often thought a lovechild of mine and John Bishop's would be a sight to behold.

Is Rob Beckett yours and John Bishop's son?

Villagetoraiseachild · 27/02/2024 19:02

Sorry we won't be getting your live commentary @JaneJeffer as you usually nail it!

Tbh, I am in favour of this earlier time as i can decompress before bed, sometimes needed after a very shouty dinner party or couples' retreat, but i understand not practical for everyone.

Tried to watch the reunion last night but gave up as it was giving me the itchy ick!
On paper, very successful season! Three couples still together, plus one recycled couple, which is unprecedented as a 'result'.

But alas they are a very uncomfortable watch. So screechy, so fake, so manufactured.

Not sure if this be the fault of the production team, trying to rehash tired old drama, a bad edit or could be that it just wasn't an appealing year, personality wise.

Maybe they were all better people individually or in couples (tho obvs not all!) and it was mainly their group dynamic that was dysfunctional.

Anyhoo, better grab the sofa picnic as it is nearly time!

He must have applied as his ex was moving her stuff out.

Oh lordy. Putting the Tin Man with the nut job?

SameSameButDeliverance · 27/02/2024 19:39

Tin Man and Susannah Reid’s blonde, hippy poet sister? What could possibly go wrong?!

Bluetrews25 · 27/02/2024 19:41

Do they have to bleep out someone saying 'erection' before 2100?!
