Alright. All gloves are off. Claws are out. Finger clapping at the ready.

I really like April. Not sure Ash is her guy but they’d be a lot better with each other than their current partners. She needs someone funny and sparky not Leo who is boring af.
Feel sorry for Nelly, she’s attractive, clever and articulate- she can do so much better but just has deep rooted insecurities. I hope she really works on herself.
Julia-Ruth is a piece of work. Spiteful and horrible. 100% trades on her looks and sex appeal and having the power to steal other people’s partners whether she likes them or not. Not a nice person and in it to create drama ((and get some pantomime villain work). Poor Divarni though who is totally harmless and likes lamb to the slaughter.

It’s painful watching Leo and people (on the show not here) suggesting that actually there’s a super funny and interesting person there that he just hasn’t been able to show, that’s very clearly not the case the ‘yo booty’ thing he wrote was the final nail.
it’s like watching someone that has been paired with one of her little brothers mates and he can’t believe his luck but ultimately has nothing to offer and will never be a serious prospect to her but she feels a bit tight telling him to do one.

I think April will keep staying to get swapped with Ash and I will feel quite sorry for Grace.

I found it toe curling when the new women were fawning over JR especially when she cried it was embarrassing.

Totally agree that Reiss is not into Leisha and I think she plays the sexually liberated up for anything super horny woman because she thinks that’s every man’s dream come true.

Nellys lack of awareness of the sad situation she is in is very much not endearing and feels a bit performative as if she thinks it’s showing rat boy how into him she is, acting all ‘he’s my man’ and that’s probably not her authentic self and he doesn’t give a fuck anyway.

I also loved Div’s flowery shirt.

When's the next episode on? I can't keep up with the chaotic schedule

Tomorrow I think. I hate the schedule. Instead of doing random longer shows late into a week night they should do no longer than an hour and spread it across more days per week

April bouncing on the bed saying she's excited (because she wants to stir shit clearly!) and it's like..........................................................................................

TitsInAbsentia · 25/10/2025 18:31

Crying with laughter at JR going for her last bit of exposure (I seriously did think she was pantless at one stage!) as she knows her time is up now. Interesting how she still clearly did not think her behaviour was an issue at all. However I do think Nelly is banging on a bit too much about the Stephen swap thing. Had to laugh at the questions which were clearly there cause more aggravation - JR was never going to resist having another dig and picking weasel boy...but to be honest when she said her reasons why (was it like looks and personality or bants or something) I did wonder if she'd got him mixed up with someone else!

Why did Maeve (why did they let Maeve) go to the retreat on her own? It was clearly only going to be more upsetting for her. And he ain't coming back. Oh hold on...yes he is!

RobynRB · 25/10/2025 18:34

The experts claim they only get to see certain things, so how are supposed to 'advise' the participants properly? It seems ridiculous doesn't it? Also why do they have to write down their decisions before they get on the sofa? The experts basically told Divani and JR that they were a sham, fake bunch of crap but of course they had already written stay.

And I would dearly love the experts to explain to us why asking the contestants which one they fancy the most and then as if that wasn't enough which one they wished they'd been paired with instead, is a 'vital part of the experiment'.

How? How is that anything bit shit stirring?

Loved it when Bailey called out his missus, that was epic level calling bullshit. You flew off the handle, well... you didn't scream or shout or do anything really. So how was that flying off the handle? Ridiculous.

TinselAngel · 21/10/2025 22:25

I don’t see the point in Maeve going on couples retreat on her own.

It was basically so Ashley is made uncomfortable enough to spill the tea.

Why does the creepy smile guy look like he is missing half of the top of his head? It's just eyes and then hair. No forehead.

This is exactly what the laughing react was made for! That gif turned me into a real life version of the gif where the woman is laughing so much she spills her coffee! 🤣🤣🤣

mumofoneAloneandwell · 25/10/2025 21:39

Divarni seems like hes struggling to process this whole thing

He seems very vulnerable, especially with the crying

Jr is fucking nasty - but also, i think leave him to it

Seriestwo · 26/10/2025 10:26

Why is having a family bereavement a terrible slight to his new wife? It is really nasty to make someone’s funeral about you and boo hoo hoo about how sad you are that your husband has gone to bury his grandad. I really can’t understand this at all

Seriestwo · 26/10/2025 10:27

Also, the scottish woman, she has a really unusual face - are those fillers in her cheeks or has she got really prominent cheek bones? I keep thinking she has been stung by a bee.

It must be filler? Looks ‘ok’ from the front but as soon as she turns her head slightly it’s like a caricature .
also yes to your post ref the funeral, how had nobody picked up on this already. I’m surprised that the soothsayer hasn’t picked up on this yet and challenged her, Leigh or Leah (can’t remember which is which)
maybe without his grandad’s funeral being utilised as a rejection storyline there aren’t enough dramatic events ?

LeanToWhatToDo · 26/10/2025 14:47

Stevens stepdad was in hospital for a few hours and he got let off with swearing at the whole group, swearing at his wife, telling grim stories about his Z lister shags while leaving his wife with a broken rib alone.
Joe goes home for funeral and no one has the balls to tell Maeve that before he left he basically forgot to tell her that he'd changed his mind, soz. I'm all for bringing him to account but it hasn't been fair on Maeve. Maybe they thought they'd be helping her in a "retreat" but it's clearly winding her up more. I don't understand why Mel is forcing out Dean and Sarah in one instance and then letting Maeve make up her own mind to stay when she doesn't have all of the facts.

"This is my unpopular opinion...Grace and Ash are not on the same level in terms of intellect."

See, I disagree with this- I think it's a class thing.
Ash is perfectly astute but he's not from an educated MC background.
Grace is articulate but she's incredibly posh- as are her friends- they all subscribe to the leftist ideologies that are de rigueur in these circles.
Ash is from a business background- much less likely to be around these "correct- thinking" people.
You see it on here all the time (Mumsnet being an overwhelmingly MC site)- this assumption that left wing is the only way the good people think.

I don't see him being very bright at all? I think we've seen him giving a lot of quick answers which show he isn't a thinker at all, in fact. He's having to think a bit now because he's realised just spouting "I want a barbie on a quad bike!" and calling his girlfriend "a dick" isn't going to wash with most women. I don't think that's something posh vs "business" just general women not wanting to have to look like a doll while also somehow being rural and muck in. He's not shown any brilliant logical or strategical thinking at all really other than saying he started reading a book.

Grace is clearly changing, her pleading looks to him are painful as most of us can see her thinking "I thought you GOT this?" but he just reverts back to caveman each time.

I don't think April is posh at all - she's working in a burger van, into animal print and showing a lot of flesh, has leg tattoos and her family were not particularly MC. She's nailed the super femme voice and showy stuff that Ash really likes though, so I do think they might work. She'd be happy to eat from the burger van outside at the very least where I suspect Grace might have doubts.

WallaceinAnderland · 26/10/2025 15:03

Joe is just plain rude. There is no excuse to not keep in touch with messages. Millions of people attend their grandparents funerals without abandoning their partner.

menopausalfart · 26/10/2025 20:47

@WallaceinAnderland To be fair, he's only known her for a couple of weeks.

It made me verify myself as a human. Given I'm still watching this, I'm becoming less and less sure.
