Think it is next on on Sunday. I guess the final wedding will be on then (the oldies!)

Pbjsand · 26/09/2025 19:16

Can’t believe how poorly matched all the couples are 😕

NeedAnyHelpWithThatPaperBag · 26/09/2025 19:33

FWIW I like Dirvani and didn't find anything he said dull.

Morticia Adams vibe

Morticia Adams has bucketloads more facial mobility than THAT.

She is very masculine looking. I think it's all the filler because she looks like a lot of the trans characters we've had on our screens over the last year. Her dead icy stare would put the shits up me too and that's another thing transwomen seem to do very well.

I thought it was a transwoman, probably why they had to show the gym bit with less clothes on to prove it lol.
I don't get why so many people want botox when frowns are so much fun :P

Bailey reminds me of Wilf from the Traitors.

Please tell me where I can find Lucinda?

Grace reminded me a bit of Madelaine Stowe.

Dirvani seems pretty normal, it’s only because most of the people on these shows are loud, in your face types that he comes across as ‘dull’. I agree that he is also good looking and with a great body but I think she was expecting a bloke with the personality of her gay male dancer mates.

I’m not getting the lesbian couple at all, they don’t seem to have any interest in each other or anything in common. I get the feeling that the show ‘locked them in’ because they were both gay women and good looking.

Let’s see how Joe develops but much like the bloke with face tattoos last year, he has a-hole written all over him. Will be happy to be proved wrong…….

On the All4 app. It’s a podcast I think but they film it.

I agree and the poster who said he’s just ‘normal’ and not OTT like practically everyone else. Julia-Ruth’s constant maniacal laughing at absolutely nothing is much more of an issue to me. Also they just seem to be hanging round what looks like an empty hotel. Surely JT could suggest something ‘fun’ to do if she’s bored. I didn’t even get her going on about his ‘negativity’. I just thought he was a bit introspective at times but nothing more. She needs to meet my mother if she wants to meet a grade A mood hover. It makes me think she’s very superficial. There’s no depth to her. I kept thinking when will we see the ‘real’ JT because every time we saw her with her gay friends they were just shrieking like a group of teenage girls again about absolutely nothing. No one can be like that all the time.

JR’s lipliner looks like a comedy Errol Flynn moustache

"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!

5’9”, according to his acting / modelling profile.

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.

There were two people born with her name in Knowsley (so the right district) in the 1990s - one in Q1 1991 and one in Q4 1992.

Oh gawd, of course he has one of these. I bet they all do apart from Ashley and Grace who seem to have real jobs.

Come on C4, give us more real people not reality star wannabes!

Here he is:

I predict he will pull out the juggling and break dancing to win her over and be all jazz hands "fun!"

This. None of them actually “want” to get married—they want the Instagram followers, TV presenting roles, or to grow their “entrepreneurial” pursuits.

How can a 28 year-old be “tired of the dating scene and at the end of the rope, having explored ALL other options, whereby their only remaining option to find true love is to enter into an arranged marriage”? Yeah right. You’re only just starting on the dating scene, love. You’re a baby who was born in the 1990s FFS.

Does anyone else think that the dinner parties will be a lot less entertaining this year compared to last year?

Depends how much Maeve has to drink 🤪
i can also see Crystal not being backwards at coming forwards and saying what she thinks!

Dean will rap or sing. I've called it first.
