Can’t stand Caroline. I think she used to work in PR or something and that’s why she knows loads of people. She’s an arsehole.

just found this.

I will say this, though. Much as I may dislike her, Caroline has obviously lived a full and varied life and it’s incredibly patronising to be told she knows nothing by an 18 year old. And I’m saying that as someone who likes Teja.

Also, I didn’t realise her surname was Monk til I just googled her, and her stupid nickname does actually make sense now.

honeyrider · 15/10/2025 14:10

Teja was patronising to Caroline.

My recollection of nominations in previous series was that anyone who got 3 or more nominations were automatically up for eviction. There were times with 5 would be up.

NervyWegovy · 15/10/2025 14:23

I feel like yesterday was a great example of a lot of political chat. I don’t think Caroline was 100% being in the discussion with good faith at least at the end, but she obviously holds some right leaning views and was open to talking about them in a more open way than George. I feel like Teja and Zelah wanted to try and explain their point but also weren’t as coherent and straight with their messaging as they felt they were often diverting the initial discussion to another that’s linked but a somewhat different topic.

Caroline was wanting to discuss the Indian immigrants, whilst they were talking about Elon Musk and Farage and systematic oppression by those with for want of a better phrase as my minds gone blank “ protected characteristics”. Teja especially seemed to get flustered and suddenly the discussion ends with Caroline being thick and misinformed which of course isn’t going to make Caroline open to more discussion and she goes away feeling attacked for her views and the chance to potentially inform her of their position and potentially change her stance is gone and made harder by the next person she comes across discussing it with.

MrTiddlesTheCat · 15/10/2025 14:31

Caroline is thick and misinformed. Fancy bleating about India doing nothing to support people when it's taken in millions of refugees from Afghanistan, Pakistan and Myanmar.

ConstantlyFuriosa · 15/10/2025 16:09

The disparity between rich and poor in India is huge and I’m pretty sure that’s what Caroline was talking about. As @NervyWegovy said, they were talking at cross purposes. I don’t think Caroline is thick at all and I’m not her greatest fan, but she was trying to have a deeper conversation about something different to the one Teja and Zelah thought she was having.

i really loathe this preachiness coming from - for want of a better phrase - the Youth of Today. All this telling people they need to learn when really they know fuck all themselves. I do think Teja is an intelligent young woman but she was extremely patronising to Caroline.

Edited to say. Were we that insufferable when we were that age? Maybe. Probably! But not as bad as this lot.

mumofoneAloneandwell · 15/10/2025 16:12

Havent even watched last night's one, I've just read the thread

Its dire 😔😔😔

No way! it was the 90's, I just wanted to know where the next rave was...

I just half heartedly caught up. I am so indifferent to the lot of them.

What an absolute flop this series is so far. I cannot stand L&L either anymore.

Any decent viewing recommendations would be much appreciated as don't get the chance to browse much.

MrTiddlesTheCat · 15/10/2025 17:03

I think Caroline has some pretty despicable views but is canny enough to know how that will be perceived. So she voices them as if she is trying to understand, giving her the ability to backpedal if the heat is too much. She's sly.

mumofoneAloneandwell · 15/10/2025 17:03

StacyFromCroydon · 15/10/2025 10:42

The things I do for you guys! 😂

@mumofoneAloneandwell You cannot say I've not shown my commitment now😉

So here are the nominations:

Caroline - Richard Feyisola
Jenny - Sam Nancy
Feyisola - Tate Nancy
Teja - Tate Nancy
Marcus - Nancy Sam
Nancy - Jenny Cameron K
Cameron - Nancy Sam
Elsa - Sam Zelah
Richard - Nancy Elsa
Sam - Tate Teja
Zelah - Nancy Tate
Tate - Sam Teja

So Nancy got 7
Sam got 5
And Tate 4

😄😄🙌🙌

Surprised that tate isnt up though

Or not surprised

Dont care

Hard agree. Just on that part now and the faux 'I'm just trying to understand' coming from a 50 something woman who worked in PR is grating and transparent.

bizzey · 15/10/2025 17:22

Still suspicious of the 2 🤔🤔...

Anyways...
I am Traitoring off for the episode!

Catch up later !!

Thanks for all the clear ups !

bizzey · 15/10/2025 17:23

@StacyFromCroydon !
I had a real messed up night 😄

Oh yeah, she’s mates with Matthew Wright don’t forget!* Actually, I think they might have dated (think I picked that up from this thread).

She’s also spiteful, as evidenced by her treatment of Richard who’s simply bumbling along being his bumbly, rather dull self. However, he’s not an arsehole and she is.

*Edited to say. And Farage!

StacyFromCroydon · 15/10/2025 17:50

It does seem odd she has got it in for old Dicky.
Her "trap" last night (re the shopping list) definitely feels like she is targeting him, which is uncomfortable viewing but why would she make it so blindingly obvious to the viewers?
She's obviously a smart woman who's been around the block so should know better how to conduct herself to the viewing public so am a bit baffled by her behaviour to be honest 🤷‍♀️

NervyWegovy · 15/10/2025 18:02

Also going by that website where Caroline is being photographed with celebs there’s so few and so many look like normal random event meet and greets such as at night clubsover such a large span of time it wasn’t impressive to me as I didn’t even know the people

StacyFromCroydon · 15/10/2025 18:03

Fancy an iced coffee 🧊 ☕️ ?

I'm abandoning BB for Celeb Traitors tonight.

Agree with all of this!

MrTiddlesTheCat · 15/10/2025 19:48

I think Richard is actually a vicar rather than a composer. Definitely giving off vicar vibes.

Especially in his white polo neck

StacyFromCroydon · 15/10/2025 20:10

We think Richard looks like Norbot...

Am I the only one that wants Nancy to go into the secret house?

I like the fact shes ruffled some feathers and isnt that nice?
I also don't want her to go the following week.

pippapipps · 15/10/2025 21:19

Secret room bollox just because bb don't want Nancy to go they knew she'd be up..a house without Nancy and Elsa would be a good house
Absolutely love Jenny my favourite

Karmacamelia · 15/10/2025 21:27
