On week 5 now (I think,) and I don't think there is one single solid couple at the moment. They're all over the place! 😬

I'm confused by the dry run thing. Surely they don't run an entire weeks long series, but just not show it? What do they actually do?

This explains it: www.capitalfm.com/news/tv-film/love-island/dry-run-explained/#:~:text=Island's%20dry%20run%3F-,A%20%22dry%20run%22%20in%20Love%20Island%20refers%20to%20a%20pre,before%20the%20real%20contestants%20arrive.

Dejons 'i think I'm falling in love' to Meg, whilst looking away last night was hilarious 😂

I like Toni, she's got a bit of spark to her..

Anyone else think Yasmines whole, I'll eat you for breakfast/ scratching back / biting thing, is just an image she's portraying in an effort to attract men.. like a 14 year old boy who pretends he's not a virgin and talks about shagging all the time to impress his mates?

But its been nice to hear the odd sentence from her rather then a minimal head nodding 'yeah'...

LostaraYil · 17/07/2025 18:43

Toni is the biggest mug there going back to Harrison. It was nice to see that she was able to get some full sentences out though, I hate the way she usually speaks in cryptic or sarcastic one liners.
Also Harry's advice to Harrison is awful, he just wants someone to look like more of a prick than he is.
I'm happy to see Connor and Shakira looking happy together. I don't like Shakira much because she is a bit smug, entitled and comes across as an 'I just say it how it is' person who uses that as an excuse to be rude. But it's been interesting to see Shakira and Toni sometimes chatting with Helena seemingly on good terms. I do think Helena is a bit weak, but also for the most part nice and easy to get on with. I will feel sorry for her when Harry drops her because he's bored.

So depressing how this series has been more about impressing “the lads” than their partner. Should be called Lad Island. Can’t wait for tonight though! 😆

Aquarius1234 · 17/07/2025 18:59

I don't think Helena is that into Harry. She might think she is. But I'm not buying it.

I have loved this series as there are so many bizarre characters in there and I love trying to work out what makes them tick.

So much more interesting than the "we're exclusive" followed by "will you be my guuuurlfriend girlfriend" bollocks of old.

Starpleked · 17/07/2025 19:08

I find Toni insufferable, such a hypocrite to give the big condescending speech to Lauren and then going crawling back herself. She probably doesnt even like him that much but wants to 'win' and be a part of the drama- baffling how her or Lauren still want anything to do with him.

I do love to watch a bit of a bastard too (not too much of one!) but I wish there was at least one total gent like Ovie to swoon over. Jamie and Cach are lovely though but of course we haven’t seen enough of them.

Definitely a more interesting set of cast this year, its more big brother vibes than a show about dating at this point though! Hopefully they show more lighthearted fun moments.

I wish the producers would orchestrate a recoupling where he has to be dropped as a symbol of not putting up with his behaviour but sadly I’m not sure all the girls would give him the pie. 😞

FiloPasty · 17/07/2025 19:39

It’s going to be a bit weird tonight as those questions were only on the app and the couples had been together 10 mins so I thought it’s going to just be argument central.

copi1ot · 17/07/2025 19:45

I. Cannot. Stand. Toni's. Shtick.

That's all I've got.

Aquarius1234 · 17/07/2025 20:52

Anyone read the rumours the other day about a potential new female bombshell?
Spanish footballer..

You better hope that isn't coming next week! Or sooner.

Usernamenotavailable19 · 17/07/2025 21:04

I think someone’s going tonight

Aquarius1234 · 17/07/2025 21:09

Boris is another creep then.

copi1ot · 17/07/2025 21:09

How is he being a creep?

Aquarius1234 · 17/07/2025 21:12

copi1ot · 17/07/2025 21:09

Just after one thing with Emma I think.

Once again we see things differently @Aquarius1234 Grin

No problem. We all see different things.

Lampzade · 17/07/2025 21:16

Billykiss is well rid of Boris
She probably wouldnt give him the time of day in real life

copi1ot · 17/07/2025 21:19

(I like Boris. If I was Emma I'd be happily skipping off to the Hideaway with him too).

upandleftthenright · 17/07/2025 21:23

Emma knows Harry

SparklingMetre · 17/07/2025 21:24

what? Is Emma asking Harry to be with her? I’m so confused

Aquarius1234 · 17/07/2025 21:25

I'm surprised Emma ever fancied Harry. He's so ewww.
