I thought we werent allowed?

Discussing First Look is okay - identifying who has chosen to leave the villa two days before it is actually screened is Not Okay!

I also wondered about the excitement over a 0% WKD party!

Seriously, why bother 🤣

Why on Earth did he pronounce it as W-K-D????

What do you mean? I’ve only ever known it as WKD Blue?

Lampzade · 12/07/2024 12:01

The casting directors should be sacked.
Many of the cast were neither attractive nor interesting
There are hardly any challenges either which is strange
Rubbish season which is a shame because it started off well

CatMumSlave · 12/07/2024 12:04

I call them Wicked or W K D. Blue ones are nice.

I agree. They were relying too heavily on Maya Jama and Joey Essex to pull in viewers and it didnt work. They should have concentrated on contestants.

Also, on a shallow note; I hate all the ebay clothes.

BlackStrayCat · 12/07/2024 12:23

I call it Wicked too.

CheeseWisely · 12/07/2024 12:31

@ReadyTeddy1000 I've only ever called it W-K-D! Given the heavy product placement / sponsorship I'd have thought they'd have had him re-do it if the brand were unhappy with the pronunciation?

doggolove · 12/07/2024 12:45

did anyone notice before Konnor went on his date that one of the women (not sure who) sniffed his armpits to make
sure he was date ready? Just thought it was interesting after the many chats in here about why he's not popular with any of
the women. A few people queried
breath/body odour issues, but obviously the show wouldn't broadcast that.

ReadyTeddy1000 · 12/07/2024 12:07

Never heard of it this way, and we certainly drunk enough of it back in the day 😁 Agree that the brand will have specified how it was pronounced on the show.

ReadyTeddy1000 · 12/07/2024 13:13

Seriously, this is blowing my mind 😳
It's literally "Have you got a wkd side" in their branding.
Like VPZ vapes shop, TRNSMT festival, the Weeknd, Irn-Bru, Grindr

Picoloangel · 12/07/2024 13:16

I think the Konnor sniffing etc was just a joke.

Some of the clothes are dreadful. I can’t believe the references to sharing bikinis - thought they were joking but they’re actually seem to be. That’s grim; particularly thong bikinis

I noticed that. It was Jess who is with Ayo. Unless it was just one of those things, checking he’s all presentable because he’s single . But when I was watching the heart rate challenge, not sure if anyone else noticed but when Konner walked past Harriet she scrunched her nose up and couldn’t hide her look of disgust like there was a smell

CheeseWisely · 12/07/2024 13:25

I've just gone down a rabbit hole of old WKD adverts on YouTube. They never say the brand name, just have a 'Have you got a [picture of the bottle] side?' so feasibly just a play on WKD being short for wicked?

purplefox97 · 12/07/2024 13:29

She sniffed and wrinkled her nose and pulled these faces

😮

BlackStrayCat · 12/07/2024 13:30

She really does!

CatMumSlave · 12/07/2024 13:39

I'm feeling for Jess S now they both need bin off Ayo.

CatMumSlave · 12/07/2024 13:40

@purplefox97

To be fair she pulled those faces a lot.

TheDutchHouse · 12/07/2024 13:40

BlackStrayCat · 12/07/2024 13:30

To be fair that was Harriet's normal look , she had an air of distaste .. or maybe Botox made her look that way

Especially with an added shot of port to make a Cheeky Vimto. 😋

I would smuggle in vodka if I was on LI.

CatMumSlave · 12/07/2024 14:15

@LittleGreenDuck I was telling my dds about those 🤣😂

sweetpickle2 · 12/07/2024 14:18

WKD is technically pronounced Wicked according to their Wikipedia, but I and many others called it W K D- if you ordered that in a bar nobody is going to stare at you blankly, they'll know what you're asking for.
