MAFS #8 NO SPOILERS. Reiss wishes he had married a mango to do the horizontal tango. Abi's flaps are in distrust, trapped in tiny fishing line. No boobs or labia, alas. Dean still sucks.

Who is Shitlid? Adam?

The one with the shit hair. I never bothered to learn his name, he was Shitlid Forever. Married to Polly.

She has called out Steve's shitty behaviour in the pub the night Nelly broke her rib (am I allowed to say I'm sceptical it was broken?) for which, fair play

That was only because she was hoping for drama and screen time. Nothing more.

Shitlid was Adam (or Adam was Shitlid!) The Original Shitlid, that is. There were many impersonators.

What does collagen in your tea actually DO?

Fleeces your bank account. Better off eating the jelly out of pork pies :D

I am actually thinking I'd enjoy rewatching series 9 than forcing myself to carry on watching the drivel of series 10.
Who'd have thought we'd be nostalgic for the likes of Shitlid and Gaston!

I really wish I hadn't googled him 😳. I was expecting an image of Mr Tumble!

Grace and Ash looking good.

They(and John and Abi) are my fav couples.

I think Keye is pronounced like Keir the Prime minister.

Italiangreyhound · 14/10/2025 23:20

Maeve is looking so much better toned down, nice hair, simple outfit, glasses, she looks good.

Italiangreyhound · 14/10/2025 23:25

ruethewhirl the suggestion to pair Dean with an obese woman is because he is obese. Will be be happy with large larger lady? That's the question. Everyone else on the avis is either slim or more muscular.

Definitely nothing to do with the weight. There's that comedian, Greg Davies, who isn't a conventionally attractive man, but I do think that he is very sexy and has set, appeal. It's the aura.

I started a thread about fancying him ages ago and Jonathan Ross read out some choice excerpts on TV. I bloody love Greg.

That thread was a joy

I get what you mean, but I don't really think attraction works that way. I've been obese myself, I'm not touchy about obesity at all, but it (i.e. whether other people were obese or not) never had any bearing on who I was or wasn't attracted to.

cos he is funny and comfortable in his own skin. Always sexy.

FirstCuppa · 14/10/2025 23:40

Man Down put me off him. A few scenes where he's a bit of a shit to women and really reminded me of my dad in that - not washing or cleaning...student at 50 vibes don't do it for me.
I did like him up to that point though - tall and funny and clever men are a big tick from me too. Why are there never any in MAFS?
Edited to say, obviously they don't need to go on these shows. I'm just sad we have to watch Dean in his bin man jumper instead.

Bless him. He looked like an acorn.

FirstCuppa · 14/10/2025 23:44

He was very popular though with the menfolk as by the end they were all sporting shitlid hair, if I am not mistaken?

That was another nickname we gave him 😂

Page 10 before I’ve even managed to catch up with you. And eaten half a bar of Tony’s dark chocolate almond and salt. Thank God they’ve let Sarah out.

DrowningInSyrup · 14/10/2025 23:51

Merryoldgoat · 14/10/2025 22:44

He’s like a bloke in the pub talking about how he went to school with Ed Sheeran and they used to sing in assembly together and he got the idea of ‘Shape of You’ from one of his songs.

Agreed. Yes, he is overweight, but I actually think he's very good looking. It's his personality that completely puts me off. When he got people raising their hands and saying Dean at the rap wedding, I'd have left then. Saved myself from that awful song.

"....get what you mean, but I don't really think attraction works that way. I've been obese myself, I'm not touchy about obesity at all, but it (i.e. whether other people were obese or not) never had any bearing on who I was or wasn't attracted to."

I know what you mean but I expect your relationships were not televised and put I under such scrutiny! Normal relationships develop normally. MAFS is not a normal process!

Personally, I am overweight and my husband is slim. I have always been attracted to slim men. When I was slim, and now. Not fat, not muscular, not even very tall!

I think that pairing anyone overweight on this show with Anyone who has not specifically said that's what they want, is a poison chalice. Even two overweight people. It rarely seems to work on this show. It's a shame but it's just not fair.

It's not fair on either side of the pairing, IMHO. So really I'd not want Dean to be paired with someone unless they were what he wanted and he was what they wanted.

But we all know MAFS does it for drama!!

Wishing the best for Sarah, and Dean and I think they will both be better off apart.

Nelly would’ve been better off being partnered with Ashley

She’d have been better partnered with Paul

browneyes77 · 14/10/2025 22:49

I honestly couldn’t care less about JR & Div.

Their relationship seems a mystery as she says one thing and he says another.

We have no real info about them and therefore, I’m not interested.

Looks like JR (not Ewing) has been telling porkies about their relationship according to tomorrow night’s preview …. Mmmm !

kenyaswhiterefrigerator · 15/10/2025 07:01

Glad Sarah is free.

EmeraldShamrock000 · 15/10/2025 07:37

Ah, Sarah, wish her all the best.

Nelly, next up for war. He is vile.

Julie-ruth would be better with Steven, I'd like to see him trying to put her down, meow.

Really like Ashley. Abby and John are well matched, hopefully mumma-bear doesn't ruin it for Abby.

D&K are my favourite, very well matched.
