New thread!

I’m liking tattoo-man, he seems like a gentle soul, but Maeve is as rough as a badgers back after a bath!

I quite like Dirvani, he seems troubled so I’m hoping once he opens up, he can be what JR wants.

BotoxBride and Delta-Boy deserve one another.

ThePlatypusAlwaysTriumphs · 25/09/2025 23:22

So DH got the wrong train to the wrong station, and I missed the whole thing 😡
Watched on catch up- Lips, Nips, Crystal tips!
The nips were extreme! Is it a new trend? Are men's nipples getting pointier? Or is this the reason nature gave them hairy chests, for the nips to hide in.
Bailey looks like Rob Schneider from Grown Ups (appropriate as his bride looks way older!)
I think (guess) Wavy- Maeve's tattoo says horse mum?
Big Div is being a....bit of a big div. Or a not big enough div. But he's trying too hard to be cool and at one with the universe. He's going to end up sleeping with the camels (which are actually pretty, but probably smell)
See you all tomorrow!

I can't believe that I didn't know MAFSUK was back. I'm 3 episodes in, catching up on previous thread.

"Is Divarni really short? He's fairly average height I think, and I'm sure he's taller than her, so it feels like a really weird thing to get hung up on."

Did you see JR's shoes, so high, no man could be taller than those shoes! Nice shoes but how can she walk in them!

Italiangreyhound · 26/09/2025 01:35

I think Julia-Ruth is going to jump ship, and perhaps land on Bailey. Bailey is a fun loving chap and I think he would be a better match.

I think Rebecca will set her sights on Ashley!

MarmaladeSandwich7 · 26/09/2025 01:48

First time I have watched MAFSUK but was hooked on the Aussie version. Only seen the first episode so far. David & Keye (sp?) made me smile.

Yes!
If we had the Fat Controller shouting "All Change Please!" I'd bet on this too. Bailey is too soft and giggly for Rebecca and his lies show his low self confidence and lack of sense of self which is giving her the ick. Julia snort-laughing would set him off I reckon and she'd be laughing at his lying and calling him out which is what he needs.
Rebecca and Dark Crystal would work. They'd be booby trapping their front lawn to keep away visitors. I'm getting Skeksis vibes.

I think Grace and Ashley look like the strongest couple at the moment!

NorthFaceofthelaundrypile · 26/09/2025 11:59

I wonder if Julia- Ruth got her whip and paddle out, and discovered that her new husband is more of a maker of sweet, sweet lurve!

MyGhastIsFlabbered · 26/09/2025 12:08

So my thoughts so far:
i hate JR’s lip liner. I’m also confused because she was all over Divarni at the wedding and now she’s not attracted to him? Complete 180 there. Plus watching them on the camels is making me feel sick.
WTF was up with Geordie lass? Why did she walk out? And why is it every single woman from Newcastle on TV exactly the same?
Rebecca is wayyyy older than she claims. And is she says alpha one more time I’m going to scream. Who wants Andrew Tate?
Dean’s rapping is still making me cringe. I’m not sure about him. But Sarah was awful saying ‘lose weight and get tattoos’
Grace is growing on me despite being really awful to start with.
Crystal is awful. Leah has more patience than me

I’ve come to realise that I’m watching again this year for the sake of these hilarious threads rather than the show itself.

Maybe she doesn’t like a feathery stroker.

JaquiRussell · 25/09/2025 22:19

Did I watch a different season last year? With shitlid, the violent blokes that screamed & shouted or threw spag bol up the wall...how are the women this year coming in with such high expectations 🤣😆😂

I bet they’ve screened them really carefully this year for signs of anger issues after some of last year’s malarkey…

Autumunalspice · 26/09/2025 13:22

i wonder if any bomshell couples will be put into the experiment.. so far I just don’t see enough potential drama at the dinner parties with those that we have seen, apart from the usual couples not being compatible but in terms of the men or women not getting along I don’t see any real drama if anything I think the women will stick together as will then men.
I do think Ashley’s head will be turned as I think he may be a hit with some of the other women but whether I think they’ll act on I don’t know.

purplespink · 26/09/2025 15:34

Just caught up! Can’t remember everyone’s names but I can’t believe where Grace and Ashley are now in their relationship! Can’t stand Maeve or Leigh (if Leigh is the long-haired one).

thenightsky · 26/09/2025 15:52

I've only just caught up with the episodes but not read the whole 2 threads.

Rebecca has got to be older than 32, surely?

JR - if that pencil moustache gets much bigger, she's going to end up doing a fair impersonation of Freddie Mercury.

The 2 blonde lesbians need to give up and go home now. They are doomed.

SingingOcean · 26/09/2025 17:14

I'm getting a bit bored of the weddings and honeymoons now. I'm ready for a dinner party.

murasaki · 26/09/2025 17:17

Me too. I assume the last wedding and honeymoons will be Monday with the dinner party Tuesday? I hope so anyway.

mxd · 26/09/2025 17:21

I don't mind the honeymoons but the weddings are so boring. Fast forward always

Yup. Due to DHs inability to get on the right train last night I had to watch on +1! So crap without the thread, wish I hadn't bothered!

Without the threads I would have given up 20 mins into ep 1 😂😂😂

loveawineloveacrisp · 26/09/2025 18:30

I'm off on holiday next weekend and I'm seriously thinking of just reading this thread while I'm away rather than attempting to catch up when I'm back.

JaneJeffer · 26/09/2025 18:35

I hate when they introduce new couples a few weeks in. How many episodes do we have to endure?
