I love Lauren. Jonno was pathetic when he backed down to Jack. Tori is completely deluded, it's been brought up numerous times now that there are questions as to whether Jack fancies her but yet she never seems to waver and doubt him, surely it must have crossed her mind that it could be true if they're not having sex?

It really made me laugh when Tristan though the new guy was called Bridge.

Torturedsoul · 21/03/2024 21:41

I did wonder if perhaps Lobster has some dirt on Jonno from the same conversation in the gym. He may have been equally despicable and knows that Lobster could call him out too.

TheGhostOfKatesProlapse · 21/03/2024 21:42

It's so painful to watch Tori act stepford wife! How does she think she is a strong woman if all she actually does in relationships is let men treat and talk about her this way? She is becoming increasingly deluded and I don't think the girls are going to be thinking very highly of her trying to make out Lauren was at fault here either.

Lauren did well and Sara showed up. Jono needs to recognise he's just thrown it all under the bus for lobster boy and his dubious friendship.

Does anyone know what is going on with Eden's eyebrows?👀

I know it's edited but where was the support from the rest of the table??

Excellent question!

Do you think Browneyes? Remember though on the first trailer they kick someone off? I’m sure it’s when they’re on the couch. I hope he gets called out on this and is asked to leave. It would be so disappointing if they didn’t.

Yes I remember that and assume that must be jack being told to leave. But maybe just fooling us.

No idea why alkessandro can't say what he said at the blokes workshop! She heard it too but never commented at the time

Combattingthemoaners · 21/03/2024 22:12

Tori is a doormat and deluded.
Jono is weak.
Tristan is definitely gay.
Jack is a misogynistic wanker.
Maddie is absolutely nuts.
Ash needs to run.
Lauren is a queen.

MaggieFS · 21/03/2024 22:13

Wowsers. Also Team Lauren here. So disappointed in Jono. And more in Tori. Just sitting there clinging on to his arm.

🦞is just a shit. Smug. Horrific. Surely after that he's got to be the one who gets thrown off.

Clearly more to come from Mash. Did you hear at the beginning her needy comments. Her "skills" definitely need exploring more in a future episode.

PointerParty · 21/03/2024 22:14

agh bugger, I thought Jonno was brilliant up until tonight... what a massive betrayal. When Lauren asked why, he said "what do you do when someone keeps denying it?" Ummm, I don't think the answer is just agree with them? I'd be surprised if Lauren sticks around now.

Tori looks completely broken, she is literally flogging a dead horse, but why?

She also looked at the camera when she was asking him to sing for her, anyone else clock that? She's just there to make him look like an idiot I think. Very unpleasant.

Towerofsong · 21/03/2024 22:29

Seeing Tristan talking to Tim, I am starting to edge towards thinking he is gay and closeted. As opposed to just not attacked to Cassie. He is just so much more comfortable and emotionally open talking to another guy.
He sees that Cassie is attractive and lovely, he wants to be able to connect on that level, but he just hasn't got it to give her.

HeBeaverandSheBeaver · 21/03/2024 22:36

I'm still convinced Tristan is ND

My ND dd is excellent at being the agony aunt to her friends and gives great advice but she doesn't open up to her own feelings. She also struggles with hugs kisses etc.

mewkins · 21/03/2024 22:52

I don't know, I think the friendships in this are more important (and often last longer) than the relationships. I think Tristan and Timothy elder can help each other. Timothy certainly seems to be defrosting.

Tori and Jack are pointless (whose teeth is he wearing??) and they don't even seem very comfortable with each other.

I like Lauren and I'd have just walked away if I were her. I couldn't sit looking at Jack's face.

NotDonna · 21/03/2024 23:08

Jono!!! Zero backbone. Lauren will walk. Interesting point by a pp wondering if Jack has dirt on Jono. Jack was incredibly intimidating & banging on about loyalty and bro code. I’d not considered that. Whether Jono was equally vile about Lauren at the gym or not he’s lost her now anyway.

RottingInBed · 21/03/2024 23:41

Jade, new bride, is WAY to obvious that she just wants a new dad for her child.

Agree with pp who said maybe Tristan has a micropenis. But I'm still going with "asexual".

Ash, married to the lunatic/medium has the cold eyes of a serial killer. He is the least shaggable human I have ever laid eyes on.

Jack's pointed ears, slitty eyes and top lip make him look so rat-like.

Even Jono's VOICE is weak. So unattractive.

I did enjoy the smug look being wiped off Tori's face

Eden's upturned mouth is very unattractive.

RottingInBed · 21/03/2024 23:54

Lauren to Jono about why he backed Lobster instead of her: "he's not gonna suck your dick at the end of the night though, IS HE?"

Good point Lauren!

Whalesinthefleld · 21/03/2024 23:56

Anyone else think it’s a bit of a coincidence that Maddie was an actress? Her ‘skills’ are so staged and over theatrical. Maybe she thought she’d get an acting gig out of it.

Point well made!!!

Cack DID say there was no sexual spark at Allesandra's intamicy workshop but there IS attraction apparently,are they different things then?

Oneandahalfonagoodday · 22/03/2024 00:16

Just caught up as have to wait for DH to bugger off to bed so I can watch it in peace!

Well that episode did not disappoint, unlike Jonno the Jellyfish 🤬. Lauren was a queen!

Agree that Jack has got something on Jonno. I'm sure Lobster made some veiled remarks about it backfiring on Lauren and I wonder if it's something Jonno has said in private with Lobster and that's why Jellyfish backed down. He was getting some fairly intense stares from Lobster. Ps. Peter Rabbit called and he wants his teeth back Jack 🐰

Ash reminds me of the brother from the brother/sister duo on gogglebox (can never remember any of their names!). He looks completely petrified whenever Mad Maddy opens her mouth, as he never knows what personality is going to come out.

Looking forward to the commitment ceremony but just realised that won't be till next week 😭

I remember Harrison being utterly vile. And Brontë being oblivious.

Tori & Jack are simply Bronte and Harrison Part 2. It’s literally rinse and repeat.

I’ll put money on them going all the way to the end. Producers love the drama.

Poor old Tori, I think she knows the reality of the situation, but if she admits it, she needs to go. And she probably wants to stay. So she has to keep pretending to buy into it. When she said she was tired, I reckon she was tired of keeping up the pretense.

I think she and Ash should go off together and leave the people they are matched with.

I love Ridge and Jade, adorable. I love Steven and Michael, adorable too.

Choux · 22/03/2024 01:26

@Italiangreyhound is right. Tori knows. But she said early on that they were ahead of the other couples and they are now crashing and burning. That's a bit embarrassing for her. She wants to stay to get the fame so will pretend that they have dark humour and a connection no one else understands.

KTSl1964 · 22/03/2024 06:35

Jono is spineless - Jack is a bully and see how he never showed any concern to Tori at all. He’s got Tori where he wants he - dictating when they have sex - gives him power. He’s so unattractive - Sara - hopefully she was put in her place by the experts and was made aware her behaviour is not acceptable- you could see she was raging but couldn’t say. Lauren is very perceptive of people and she certainly sees through the bullshit and speaks up - I admire that but her gravily voice is irritating- but she can’t help that!!!!

Floofydawg · 22/03/2024 06:55

Ash, married to the lunatic/medium has the cold eyes of a serial killer. He is the least shaggable human I have ever laid eyes on.

I mean, I know what you mean but you think Jack is more shaggable? Really? 😂

NotDonna · 22/03/2024 07:04

Aww poor bloke. Whilst I don’t find him attractive, I don’t think he looks evil. His eyes look like rabbit in the headlights - terrified!

Bryce and Melissa were the originals. Even more worrying that we are now on the third series including this sort of relationship. I saw an episode of series 8 yesterday and had forgotten how awful he is. Interestingly in all three cases the other contestants have clearly had big issues being around this stuff and it puts strain on their relationships. The ixperts have kicked it up a notch this series but Jack should have been thrown out weeks ago.
