So Love Island is now on week 3. Will the arguing and bickering and catfighting continue....... ??? (Probably!) 🙄

I like Iain Stirling. It’s a silly show and he gently sends them all up.

pinkdelight · 06/07/2025 10:44

It's good that some people like Stirling, but I had to switch Unseen Bits off last night as he was relentless. I feel like he's given free reign on that show and what's just about bearable in the normal show takes over and is way too much. It's like he knows it too and his schtick has become 'I'm being annoying and unfunny, aren't I? I'll keep doing it but acknowledge it so it seems self-aware." I'm not sure it needs a comedy V/O, just a bit of BB style set-up would be fine.

LikeWhoUsesTypewritersAnyway · 06/07/2025 11:22

Exactly @pinkdelight Stirling is deeply unfunny now, and supremely irritating. I think he actually thinks he's funny though, which is worse than him not realising he's not funny!

I can’t watch Unseen Bits as Iain Sterling irritates the life out of me with his voice over. When he says Beach Hut Bonanza it makes me stabby 🔪🔪🔪

I can just about tolerate him on the main show but his ‘jokes’ are just tedious and unfunny.

Same I’ve not been watching Unseen Bits this year. But last year it was ‘what happened neeeext’ in a really annoying voice!

Just noticed there is 6 casa girls, 7 boys in the villa. And the boys that are apparently going in, there is 12 of them? I did see there is due to be a mass dumping

If there are 6 girls and 6 boys going in, you'd assume a girl and boy who are already in there will be dumped first maybe? Perhaps there's a twist, like the new girls will dump 1 boy and new boys will dump a girl? Each villa wouldn't know who had been dumped from the other camp and if somebody chose to stick, not realising their other half had gone, they'd then also be dumped or vulnerable 🤔

Yes that could be it. There is a post on Love Island Memes that shows 12 alleged casa boys though. I’m not sure that they’d have 12 boys and only 6 girls in casa but who knows!

Floral199 · 06/07/2025 14:59

First look is up. Harry’s ‘E’ tattoo is for his ex Emma.

beasmithwentworth · 05/07/2025 23:48

off topic - where are people watching the current US love island?

YouTube
They are uploaded daily

Lampzade · 06/07/2025 15:37

Iain Stirling is also the voiceover for the US Love Island show which is running at the same time as the UK version
He probably doesn’t have the time to be funny

Is there? Yeah, I'd find that odd. Also, seeing as they seem to be scraping the barrel for male bombshells as it is, I dread to think what they'd look like by the 12th 😱😂

jay55 · 06/07/2025 16:15

Re first look, bit pointless sending in Harry’s ex if she’s not interested (and good on her for not being). I suppose it makes Helena more likely to recouple with a casa lad.

kerstina · 06/07/2025 17:14

I am watching the current love island with series 3 which I don’t think I watched much of the first time around. I think Chris is a genuine person in it not sure why some people dislike him so much and I think I understand Olivia Attwood a bit more now. I like her but it seems Chris wasn’t clicky and cool enough for her . I say that with the way the bombshell was treated, Georgia .Chris more inclusive.

Edited

Agreed. And it gives Harry a useful insight into what the public think of him and his actions. So continues The Harry Show!

Polaopposite · 06/07/2025 17:55

I can’t find the USA version on YouTube. Anyone else manage to find it?

Chris went a bit red cardy... can't remember why now but think he may have got a bit possessive/angry at points.

Olivia I quite liked but she had her bitchy moments. Then she was in Towie for a bit and desperately tried to come across as the mature, level headed one, but still had an awful catty streak.

She does come across well when she's presenting though, although I've only seen bits when flicking through.

Yes it says Casa boys ‘confirmed by the Sun’ and there’s 12 of them, so would be a bit odd!

Floral199 · 06/07/2025 18:26

Producers have said that there’s up to 50 bombshells this year though and more than usual in Casa, so it could be true?

I just thought it would be an equal amount of boys and girls, no matter the number. Plus 12 boys trying to bombshell 7 girls over 2/3 days or whatever would surely be mayhem 🤷‍♀️

Yeah that’s true. No mention of them yet, I wonder if they’ll be on tonight’s episode or not!

Helena would be in her element with 12 though 🙄🤣🤣

I think Chris came across well in his season although he and Olivia were a nightmare couple. They argued so much! Olivia definitely had anger issues back then and used to get very shouty and pretty aggressive to be fair. I can imagine she wasn’t the easiest person to be coupled up with and she did use to push Chris’s buttons.

I didn’t like Chris in Celebrity BB and was uncomfortable with his friendship with JoJo.

kerstina · 06/07/2025 19:21

Jojo is the opposite in many ways to Olivia. Very open, easy to read, non love island type and affectionate . Not particularly cool but very endearing and naturally pretty so can see why Chris would like her.

Chris is quite immature and Jojo appears mature for her age whilst retaining the fun, so I think that's why they work. I was slightly concerned he was homing in on her popularity but hoped he was being genuine 🤞
