Dean seemed really nice on the after show. Shame about the rapping 😬

Oh what now? Angry

Did you mention a type of shoe, by any chance? 😄

Yes, he does seem nice, socially awkward though and I think it was maybe a bit cruel of them to put him in. Going by last night's episode he isn't good at the chat around women so there was always a fair chance he'd end up being rejected. 🙁

lunaswand · 22/09/2025 13:35

excellent, love MAFS but hoping for not too many absolute fame hunters like we usually end up with

FriendofDorothy · 22/09/2025 13:38

Shiiiiiiiiit... didn't realise it started last night.

Hold my coat.

I'll be back later once I have watched the first episode!

@ruethewhirl 😂 I posted a link to Glmour mag with a list of the brides and grooms - maybe one of them was wearing plmsoles

Just watching now and the rap has just happened. It wasn’t good, but he does seem lovely so far. I’m not liking Sarah at all. She is one of those awful women who thinks she is more attractive than she is and seems full of herself. She clearly thinks she is better looking than new husband. She really isn’t, she is just slimmer.

Keye seems very lovely. I wasn’t impressed with Davide’s attitude about pink jobs and blue jobs. They’re a good looking couple.

Early days though, watching past shows has taught me that most of them turn out to be dicks.

You didn't need to tell me you work in aesthetics..your face did!

Just starting back at the thread beginning after catching up - who was this one, the one in black who was very tall? I might be way off as we've not seen much but does anyone else think this might be a transwoman? One of the guys kept saying he was looking for his "person" so I wondered... This is the trouble with so much filler, you end up looking a bit pantomime dame.

somethingnewandexciting · 22/09/2025 14:45

I think Dean is on it to get famous. His friends all said he was arrogant when skinny but seem to just call it confidence when he's bigger, so I suspect he annoys everyone. He is desperate for attention and I suspect being a Red Coat isn't quite what he had aspired to when doing Drama GCSE...

Sarah felt a bit OTT at the first meet but I had to admit at least she isn't being fake, which is how Dave feels. I mean any guy who is such a self confessed NICE GUY who makes a huge joke out of a wedding isn't taking it seriously and it's clearly not for romance. The constant fake smiling could be nerves but I think its about always being the victim and not seeing how his own behaviour makes people dislike him. Sarah is making it very clear with facial expressions and he's still over egging it regardless so he can be let down with some sympathy from the public in my cynical opinion. He'd annoy the tits off me.

Love the gay couple but wonder if they are too similar. I can't see either being submissive and think they both seem to be very hurt by their exes and I can imagine residual hurts popping back up through lack of communication. I hope I am under estimating them as they look really good together.

AnxietySloth · 22/09/2025 14:49

Dean is the biggest ick imaginable - and it's not to do with his weight. Actually he's not particularly unattractive, in his way. Plenty of people can grow attractive to you if they have the right personality and spark but OMG NO. Not him. He's so fucking self obsessed. Made the wedding all about him and his SHIT rap and then goes and makes the reception all about him and his equally shit song and singing. Utter narcissist. She got the ick walking down the aisle and should never have married him, and she can barely speak about him without recoiling so it's not gonna get better.

Dean, Dean Dean...

Did you learn NOTHING from the Barbie movie? Us women HATE being sung to with your earnest expression and little guitar.

Ick City in a nano second

kenyaswhiterefrigerator · 22/09/2025 16:21

Let’s face it, none of them are there to find love so I don’t feel bad for any of them.

Every year I think there’s one genuine couple and they turn out to be equally problematic

I’m jaded. Still watching mind you

You've truly hit the nail on the head re Dean

As soon as someone describes themselves as 'a nice guy' you know youre about to meet the biggest twat going

I reckon his mates arent fans and when he got skinny they saw an out 😭😭

With interruptions, it’s taken me til now to get through the episode.

It got worse with the song, oh dear. Is he just nervous and trying to cover up his insecurities by being larger than life or is he actually full of himself? Sometimes these self confessed ‘nice guys’ are anything but and feel like they’re owed something from women. Time will tell I guess. Sarah got worse though, I’m really not liking her with her attention seeking ‘my type is men with tattoos and that look like they’ve just got out of jail’ rubbish. She’s so desperate that she’s willing to meet someone on a tv programme so her attitude hasn’t worked out too well for her so far, I just wanted her to shut up. Her dad is the nicest thing about her.

oh she is soo plastic. Im 32 but tell people i am 29!! She needs to understand that the fillers have aged her. She could easily be 45

32 year olds dont need fillers or botox!

opencecilgee · 22/09/2025 17:02

So obviously the two over 50a have been matched

he’s a grandad. She’s a granny/ lock it in!

I was going to say exactly this about Sarah. At first glance she'd already decided he wasn't good enough for her, well before the cringeworthy rap.

opencecilgee · 22/09/2025 17:22

I don’t think i would have liked the singing

it was too attention seeking. He isnt a good singer eitner

too much

opencecilgee · 22/09/2025 17:39

the rap with the cockney accent 😳

mumofoneAloneandwell · 22/09/2025 13:27

Fell asleep last night 😭

Caught some of it - the mum apologising, she definitely feared being cancelled for being a narc mum 🤭

The rapping guy has a very working class London accent, whereas his wife doesnt seem that way

They are defo not a match and the rapping handed her her way out 😭

She’s from near Aberdeen.

ETA: Sarah is convinced there are no eligible bachelors in her hometown - and if there are - she's already dated them.

Hmmm … OK.

Edited

She's already dated the eligble bachelors, yet they didn't last either. Yet it hasn't occurred to her that maybe she's the problem.
