The Split Barcelona

[oatmy]

Anybody watching? I have questions!

• Why are they so cool about Liv getting married, she can't be older than 20?
• Surely her brother would have come back for the wedding?
• When Rose said she was missing 'the girls' I thought she meant children, but it sounds like they haven't had any yet?

I’m watching…

Im guessing they are loaded and they have no room to talk.
Not sure on the brother.
Rose’s fella has girls.

Oh yes of course he does! Forgot about that.

I like the quips between the family

First time the families meet eachother , and they the need to review a pre- nup ? Not very romantic is it ?! Just before a wedding

Wonder what’s on the handkerchief then?

Ruth and Ronnie are very sweet. I can't believe that Nathan is still pining after Hannah - she has a real knack of getting men to fall in love with her!

Wonderful clothes as usual, I particularly liked Valentina's orange ensemble when they arrived.

That was so bad and cringey.

Yes

A bit farfetched..!

Yes I have to admit it was pretty melodramatic

SPOILER FOR EPISODE 2 IN SECOND PARAGRAPH…………………

I’m not sure if it was just me, but I noticed there were lots of convenient disruptions (phone ringing/someone appearing to speak to the person in the scene), just as important things were about to be revealed/discussed (I’m not sure if that makes any sense, but it does in my head!). I understand this happens in all dramas etc, but it just felt excessive, and almost a tad lazy by the writers.

Also, I didn’t feel any chemistry between Archie and Hannah, which I was disappointed by. Part of me wanted Nathan and Hannah to get back together, but I realise it’s probably too late for that now. I was interested to find out that the actor is the son of the late Dame Maggie Smith!

I’m super confused about what happened there with Nina.

Valentina is so glamorous! I feel sorry for her :(
Gael is an idiot running away!!

I thought she took the wedding planner (?) back to her room, and then had to make her leave through the window when her annoying boyfriend came back.

Totally agree!! There is zero chemistry and it’s all just totally unbelievable. I really didn’t get how she literally had Nate eating out of her hand and telling her he still loved her, then had Archie snogging the face off of her! I really didn’t understand it!!

Was willing Christie to pop up at some point.

Me too!

Absolute load of tosh.

I just watched the episodes again. I have a number of questions/comments to make, but I will save them until the second episode has aired.

I'm hugely grateful Christie didn't show up!

I really thought it might be a reunion for Nathan and Hannah this time, but I loved her speech to Archie about all th reasons she's scared of getting into another relationship - it resonated with me and I was in floods.

I honestly thought it was absolute rubbish
And I loved the previous series

I thought it was rubbish. Previous episodes were so much better.

Utter rubbish - did Liv do anything apart from cry the whole way through?

Felt like it was a 2nd rate nod to Mama Mia!

I can’t believe the Guardian review which described it as “sexy”:and “smouldering”, I didn’t notice any smouldering looks or chemistry.
