Apologies if there is already a thread on this. I've just seen an advert saying this is back on ITV at 9pm tonight. I really enjoyed series 1. I guess this will be difficult as the parents will know that their kids are watching them? I'm interested to see how they change it up.

I used to know Clare many years ago. I hadn't realised she and her ex had split up. I can honestly say that you couldn't meet a nicer person. I used to grumble to her that it really wasn't fair that she was gorgeous and lovely at the same time. I hope she find happiness.

Steph looks like davina
She's clearly very attractive and I don't agree the botox has aged her at all.

I only found this on catch up last night and don't think I saw the first episode. Here's Radio Times' cast list if it helps anyone

They also have the soundtrack list

I'm liking the women more than the men at the moment.

Stephanie I find absolutely striking with a real sense of style and flair that makes her stand out, but I thought she was about 52-53. I'm basing that on comparing with the forty year olds I know and in my own family. That's an observation, absolutely not a dig at all because she's attractive and confident. I'm keen to see if she's interested in anyone from the house.

I think all the men are grim, which has stopped me watching it. It doesn't have that lovely feelgood factor to me (like Race Across the world etc). It's just a sleazy as MAFS but dressed up in a sort of sad desperation.

I feel like last year's was better from that point of view

The thing that annoys me about the (fabulous) music is that some episodes seem to cram far too many in, and we only hear about 2 bars of each. It makes it a bit too frantic

Ghilliegums · 20/09/2024 17:47

I hate the music. And I'm an 80s girl!

startingoveragainagain · 20/09/2024 18:08

I love most of the music.

NeelyOHara1 · 20/09/2024 18:35

One of the guys (the first new additional man) reminded me of Bradley Cooper as soon as I saw him!

Puppupandaway · 20/09/2024 19:49

I really like Maria, she is a real hoot and genuine. I hope the guys start to see how fab she is and begin to show an interest.

I don't think they should have invited Paul back for another go. He had his chance last time.

There doesn't seem to be much chemistry between any of the original ladies and the guys, apart from Vicki and D. Let's hope they throw more new people into the mix.

And I agree, no way is Steph 44. Younger than me?? No way. She comes across as easily into her fifties.

ClementineChurchill · 20/09/2024 20:53

Is anyone at any point going to ask Paul to account for himself?! Why is he back here?! I agree that this is a bad idea by the producers.

Also agree Steph is clearly ten years older than she says. Even then her fake tan is doing her no favours. She looks 60!

BIossomtoes · 20/09/2024 20:57

You know some extraordinary 60 year olds.

Choux · 20/09/2024 21:10

So the guy who offered to have a word with Danny on behalf of Clare should not have done it in front of ALL the other guys. Now they are all going to think she is into him and will write her off as a possible connection.

RancidRuby · 20/09/2024 08:15

I think Steph looks great, at least she's not pumped full of Botox and I love her fashion style so far.

Not pumped full of botox? She'd had plenty, her forehead is seriously smooth and she's got the bunny nose wrinkles!

usernother · 20/09/2024 23:01

Steph is 44.

Littleguggi · 20/09/2024 23:36

All these comments about Steph's age! Gosh, no wonder there is so much pressure to turn to Botox etc. Regardless of whether she's had any work done she's recently lost her father who she cared for when he was terminally ill. Stress and grief can age us. I think she looks amazing! If anything her dress sense ages her.

Account for himself?
I agree that he shouldn't have returned but I'm not sure what you mean.

60?!

I'm finally catching up and have got to the episode where Steph arrived. I agree she looks older than 44 because of her style, fake tan, make up. She's also clearly had Botox or similar. She's very attractive . But it's a shame that she feels that's what she needs.
But tbh the women and men in this program are so different to the ones I know in real life. The clothes, the looks. I live in a London suburb where the people around me look much more like Only Connect contestants Grin

It's all terribly...Essex. They all look like the kind of people who think Davina McCall is the height of sophistication.

bigTillyMint · 21/09/2024 11:56

Why are you watching? @Ghilliegums? There are plenty of other things on if you’re not enjoying it!

I don't think anyone thinks that.

I'm not. Sorry, I'll go away. I was so disappointed with it as I was looking forward to it. Hopefully at least one couple will work out.

deltabluesandpinks · 21/09/2024 12:54

Does this share a music department with Homes Under the Hammer?!
I'd forgotten how good the music was from last year.
Just finished ep5. Love Jenny and Danny. Am really cross with Andy telling Maria he wanted to spend time with her but then choosing Steph. I thought he was good egg but now I'm not sure.
Vicky and David just don't seem right.
And Clare just makes me feel sad, poor woman.

deltabluesandpinks · 21/09/2024 12:55

And...loving the kids. Aa with last year, they are all so lovely mature and caring. I'd love to cut Danny's son's hair, though!!!!

I agree! The sooner this mullet fashion goes away for lads the better...mind you the other end of the spectrum is that awful big fringe thing I'm seeing on mafs!
