I hope nobody minds, but since I saw "lips, nips and crystal tips" in one of the comments, I just had to make it into a thread.

I’ve asked Mumsnet to delete mine

I was just too keen to remind everyone not to forget we’re 5 x episodes a week - Sunday to Thursday this year!

Coming up this week:
Sunday - last wedding
Monday - first dinner party
Tuesday - first commitment ceremony
Wednesday - tasks
Thursday - tasks

Bring it on!

FlamingoFloss · 27/09/2025 21:52

Placemarking!

dapsnotplimsolls · 27/09/2025 21:56

I'd prefer Monday to Friday, not sure why they're doing Sunday.

Thanks for the new thread x

Dozeyduck · 27/09/2025 22:15

checking in...
I didn't comment on the last thread as watched it all back to back while on sick leave yesterday but was reading along on the threads I could find!

Cant help but get that feeling I get with all reality tv - that it is all obviously over produced, set-up tosh... but having said that I still unfortunately love it 😂

BestIsWest · 27/09/2025 22:43

Checking in for the ride.

MooFroo · 27/09/2025 23:31

Me too! Normally binge watch it towards the end but got in at the start this time ;)

LadyContrary · 27/09/2025 23:34

I’ve just finished watching all the episodes back to back whilst simultaneously scrolling through the previous threads.
Can’t wait for the first dinner party and commitment ceremony!

beasmithwentworth · 27/09/2025 23:35

Third thread already! Thanks for starting @Dillite2. Can’t wait for the first DP 🎉

Can I ask - how are any of you managing to catch up with previous episodes ?

I tried tonight, as I missed Thursday's episode and I just couldn't find it. Kept offering me season 9 - all of it ! Whereas I believe i am looking for series 10 episode 5.

Thank you.

Checking in. I’m glad it’s on Sunday as it’s normally so boring.

It's perfect Sunday tv!

I've not seen the Steven goss but I think I posted early doors that he kept on saying about never cheating...the experts repeated that he had said it to them too. I was wondering if his ex and mother of his child might have something to add to that discussion. Also why he was out clubbing when she was home with a baby and what the fight was all about. It screams player to me personally.

Had to re-write that before I go off to tik-tok and see if my crystal ball is working 😅

FirstCuppa · 28/09/2025 09:02

Thanks for the new thread by the way!

FirstCuppa · 28/09/2025 09:11

I've found some goss but I don't think it's the mother of his child...

I'm enjoying having Fri and Sat off personally. I just think they need at least 1 less advert break in the show, but then they are trying to get us all to sign up for the blocker and pay out. I'm not that desperate. Yet. Maybe it will wear me down after a few more weeks!

thenightsky · 28/09/2025 09:51

Thank you for the new thread. I'll be watching tomorrow morning as I record the 8am one and zoom through the ads.

AhBiscuits · 28/09/2025 09:58

I've binge watched the first 5. It seems pretty bleak for most of them.
Leigh/Leah, I'd have told her to fuck off after 1 day. All those banging on about needing to take things slowly, a slow burn etc, you realise that you applied for MARRIED at FIRST sight right?

I view these shows as any other TV show-these are not real people but characters that play a role that they have been assigned. I would never seek out their real-life profiles or anything like that. It's just entertainment on TV.

Jumping way ahead... as I've only seen two eps, but it sucks that they finally turned the tables and matched a fat... sorry, CURVY boy with a not so curvy girl. It would have been interesting to see how that went, but choosing a 'CURVY' boy who is so unlikeable rather undermined the whole thing. I bet Casper is spitting feathers.

Shayisgreat · 28/09/2025 12:17

I'm not sure I like too many of the couples so far this year. I wonder if JR was a bit drunk on her wedding and then woke up with the fear the next day.

Leigh is just awful - she doesn't come across as a nice person.
Dean is just awful. He comes across as a possible "nice guy" and I can imagine him becoming a sex pest very soon. I hope Sarah doesn't give in.
Maeve seems to have real issues and I think she is being exploited for tv views.

I have a feeling Steven is going to turn out to be a bit awful but hopefully I'm proved wrong.

Now there was a show... 👏
