I've caught up and I'm behind so some thoughts.
I'm not keen on Alex but neither do I like Holly. They seem to deserve each other. I guess that at the very least they weren't the ones causing drama at the dinner party last night.
K&K, Sacha and Ross, Richelle and Orson, Lacey and Nathan are all currently getting on and that's pretty nice to see. Unfortunately it means that they tend to get a little less TV time than the dramatic ones which is a bit of a shame because it would be nice to see more of them but unless they get all emotional - K&K and the crying for the experts week - then it's not going to happen.
Caspar and Emma, it's all a bit tedious and circular. I just can't see him ever wanting to snog her let alone do the deed. He's lost a lot of the anger which is nice to see and maybe she is trying to be a bit less full on which I get is her way of coping with her vulnerability. They're not exciting but they're not unpleasant to watch unlike ...
Adam and Polly. I maintain that he veers towards being a total arsehole but oh my days, Polly what a piece of work you are! I did not appreciate her conversation with Charlie. She only knows half the story and one needs to be careful about calling another person a bully but more of that in an Eve and Charlie my thoughts thing. She was belittling Adam whether she meant to or not and whether he deserved it or not. Then telling everyone at the table to shut up. Repeatedly. Way to win friends and influence people. I bet her ears were burning when they all went home later! I agree that she wants screen timebut she's just making herself unpopular with the other contestants and everyone who's watching which won't be good for the 'gram.
Eve and Charlie. I've tended toward being on Charlie's side whilst thinking that there is a whole lot that's gone on/is going on that we know nothing about. I haven't for one moment thought that Charlie has had a physical altercation with Eve. I think she injures with words but while it's clear that she said stuff on the honeymoon that was hurtful what led to that? I'm not "blaming the victim" because I truly don't think that Eve is the victim she's telling everyone she is. It seemed to me that the reason she didn't want Polly to talk to Charlie was because she's over-egged the pudding. I've seen a lot of Charlie apologising and far less apologising - but at least a little - from Eve. Why couldn't Eve write even a sentence of a letter to Charlie? I'd seriously be pissed off if I was Charlie. Is Charlie a bully? I don't think so. I think she's far from perfect and a bit of a drama llama and I think it's clear that she did lay into Eve on the honeymoon, but. I also think that Eve is economical with the truth. She refuses to talk about anything. We've seen her tell Charlie to stop shouting at her when Charlie is not shouting. I think she knows that what she's told Polly and what Polly has shared with others is not the whole truth. Whether she means to be a liar or not, she tells lies. Maybe they're both as bad as each other. Maybe one is worse than the other. Maybe Eve's cold dead eyes scare the living shite out of me and that's why I'm less hard on Charlie. Who knows!
Anyway, those are my very dull thoughts so far.
