Are you remotely excited? Will you be watching regardless? Do join me ☀️🏝

Same as the winter LI thread, please expect tabloid and social media spoilers xx

@letsgotothebeach I definitely switch off in the final days. Anything after the tweets / headlines doesn't interest me.

I love Meghan, shes such a character!

There is a lot of forced chemistry going on. Even on a friends level.

I think I lost interest couple of weeks or so before the end last series.

Constant bombshells means you hardly get to know anyone. Strange.

They have been a bit musical chairs so far. No friendships or believable couples yet. Which is fine it’s early days. And I appreciate the lightness. But I’d like to see some form off attachment that might withstand a bombshell starting to form.

Malisha is gonna turn heads, shes stunning!

Ben is horrible, no redeeming feature at all.

Horrible way they're discussing the girls.

Totally agree. Channel 4 would do it better for sure. Luckily im better at throwing the towel in sooner these day.
If anything it justs gets worse with the producer interference.

Ps feel free to PM me to go into my detail about how fake and annoying you think this series is each week etc.

I agree. The way he spoke to Toni the other day also... I would never get passed that. You can tell he has zero respect for women! I'm surprised Shakera is even entertaining him!

Why are they all carbon copies of each other, I'm really struggling to tell a few of the girls apart.. where are the pale, redheads?! More blondes even!
Even one of the girls said about the bombshells last night, 'they're all brunettes' where is the diversity?! Same with the guys as well!

As ever, the nature of the show means they’re never going to attract the calibre of participants that would make it truly worth watching. Not many naturally beautiful young academics, artists, scientists or entrepreneurs are likely to apply. So they end up with hordes of unskilled youth, drowning in hair extensions, and weighed down by false fronts, all there with the sole ambition of increasing their followers on SM and getting the odd promotional deal.

Harry, you have the confidence of a far more attractive man 🙄

So true @JustFeedMeCake

Exactly
He is unattractive but honestly thinks that he is hot
Tommy looks like a knock off Andy Garcia

Is that Ben’s real voice? Why does he sound like that, it annoys me so much.

As has been said, it's daft to keep bringing new people in so often and so early on. No-one's made a proper connection yet!

Why are all the men desperate to be with Shakira? She's OK, and not bad looking, but just above average at best IMO. 6/10. Yet lots of the men seem to be mad for her. Why?

Malisha (new bombshell just come in,) is much better, as is Toni (the American,) Megan, (the blonde) Alima, and Megan (the brunette) is cute too. Helena's OK but has really strange eyes, (too far apart!)

Dejon is hot!!! Can't stand Ben. He's horrible! 😖Not sad to see Blu go, he was boring.

She has a bit of fire in her.
Reminds me of Olivia Atwood

@letsgotothebeach I thought it was just me. I put in hours of watching week after week but never watch final dates or the final. Glad it’s not just me !

I thought love island on mumsnet threads was still really popular.
Sooo many regulars no longer posting..
Tbh the threads was the main reason I still have it on.

Yes there’s a real drop off in the number of posts. I like that this series seems a bit lighter so far and that we have had a few twists and turns.

I wish they had more normal people rather that the surgically enhanced content creators. I really like Shakira because she’s more natural than a lot of the others. Gid knows what she’s doing with Ben the Ali G voice impersonator. I think she’s being her time to stay safe.

I think blond Megan is one of those girls who is going to go apeshit if Dejon so much as looks at anyone else.

Don’t like Helena pulling someone to the Hidesway whilst they are actually in bed with someone else was muggy. Harry is a triumph of confidence over looks.

Tommy looks lost and won’t keep Mila Kunis. She needs someone older and edgier.

Shay?! The new one is so dull

Didn’t like that Harry hated on th e blonde girl for her threesome but in the same breath said he’s done much worse m. Double standards

This is the first Summer series I haven’t watched yet as the line up all looked a bit meh. But having read this thread and Googled her, I do think Shakira is rather lovely.

I’ll keep checking the app for now and will probably watch the next elimination to see how it pans out.

Didn’t like that Harry hated on th e blonde girl for her threesome but in the same breath said he’s done much worse m. Double standards

He actually said he’d “probably” done much worse which I took to mean he absolutely hadn’t but was bragging for the lads.

She was bragging too, presumably encouraged by the programme makers. They do like the implausible sex boasts (5 women in one night - yeah, sure you did), don’t they?

I've been out all evening and missed tonight's show, off to watch it now.
