We've nearly filled up thread 3 and don't think there was a thread 4?!

I caught up last night and it's so obviously at the wrapping up stages with the producers wanting to push the loved up narrative. They need to let the couples just progress on their own. I think Mica and Samraj like each other but more so for convenience and I can't see them lasting. Once the initial brands and promotion work settles, they'll be over in 6 months.

I'd be okay with either Lorenzo and Julia or Jas and Kav winning. I don't think they're faking connections and feel Jas and Kav have the most natural chemistry.

I think Priya will come to regret her decision to couple up with Aiden (and go to the hideaway 😳 !) , she's just coming across a bit desperate now. There's no chance these 2 will last on the outside.

Would love Angie and Simba to go on and blossom on the outside but he's still a player underneath all the declarations I think. Angie suspects this too I think and is holding back.

I think Priya is so keen to win that she has:

  1. chosen Aidan over Ethan purely because OG Islanders are usually more popular. Plus she can spin that it ‘just developed naturally’. She obviously was surprised that Ethan wasn’t bottom 3 of the boys but she can’t switch back now. In reality I don’t think she feels anything for either of them.
  2. decided she needs to turbocharge her relationship with Aidan to stand any chance of winning against Yas/ Tommy, Jas / Kav and Lorenzo/ Julia. Hence deciding to take him to the Hideaway during the day and then to spend the night there. I am not sure how much actually happened in there as she kept describing it as ‘fun’. I think the duvet tent was just to make it look like something happened.

She will be talking next week about how surprised she is at how much her feelings are deepening. If she can claim to be in love she will. All totally fake.

They all want to win, Priya is just very unsubtle about it!

Tulipsparkle · 18/07/2026 09:57

Oh I forgot about Yasmin and Tommy! I'm not sure they've had enough air time to generate enough support to win. He comes across as a bit dull from what we've seen. Whoever said that Yasmin gives off 'mum vibes' was spot on! Not sure how old she is but she also reminds me of a school teacher when she was comforting the girls often saying 'aw no, that's not on' etc. in relation to the boys crappy behaviour! She was too mature for Lorenzo and she handled the situation after casa really well so fair play to her in that sense.

Twonewcats · 18/07/2026 10:09

I said previously, and it's even more obv now, Priya behaves as if she's following a formula or recipe. ie does all the right things, but with zero emotion. It's evident in her actions/progress with Aiden, and in the way she kisses. Zero emotion, just doing what the tick-list says.

I think Aiden adores her as a friend, but absolutely doesn't want her as a girlfriend. I suspect the massive tongue kissing is off-putting

BrentfordForever · 18/07/2026 10:26

@Twonewcats spot on!

she just gets very unbearable to watch now! The minute she opens her mouth, does that fixed fake smile with the fake happy eyes, it all gets so cringey

how the hell is Aidan tolerating her? How is he not on drugs by now ?

Yup that effing fakeness gets worse and worse …. Threw sex into the mix now to make it all all believable

makes Jas look like a saint !

Chocolattecoffeecup · 18/07/2026 10:53

Yeah I don't get the Aidan and Priya thing at all. Sometimes I think she might actually like him and clearly needs some attention but I don't buy it at all from his end.

Yas seems nice but a bit simple and a bit dull. I totally get the t
school teacher vibe more than mum vibe (she seems very young to me) but I feel like we hardly see anything of her and Tommy so I'd be suprised if they win.

I hope Lorenzo and Julia win.

OP posts:
Twonewcats · 18/07/2026 13:03

Yas could be a CBeebies presenter

TheGreenBow · 18/07/2026 14:02

I think Priya has convinced herself she likes him but actually doesn’t. Don’t think Aiden is at all fussed about her. I agree with all of you that it’s giving desperation to win.

I didn’t find the Kav declaration of love that convincing - also wonder if the producers are telling them to get on with it. I can see them lasting though as a couple and I really like Jas now as she seems very genuine.

Julia is fab and still my favourite girl. Lorenzo still favourite boy. I’d like them to win but don’t see them lasting long as Lorenzo isn’t wanting a relationship by the looks of things.

I like Yas but don’t know about Tommy as they haven’t had as much screen time.

I think Simba is sweet but am well aware I am possibly the only one here who thinks that 🤣 Angelista seems lovely too and is so beautiful. Would be nice if they surprised everyone and stick together after the show.

Fandangoes · 19/07/2026 16:09

Has anyone heard anything of Ellie and Finley since they came out?

puyr · 19/07/2026 16:11

FiloPasty · 16/07/2026 15:11

I also think Kav was the worst in casa, unforgivable to me!

yeah, he was totally loved up with Charleen in Casa. All over her. Came back and realised Jas was going to make his life a living misery if he didn’t switch back to her. So he did.

I wonder if they'll be on aftersun tonight or whether it will just be Martha, Elicia and Jordan.

FiloPasty · 19/07/2026 17:22

First look is Tommy, Ethan, Angie, Samraj & Yas’s families x

I think Aftersun going to be more interesting than the program

murasaki · 19/07/2026 17:32

I think there's a binning tonight though, i saw a sun article but couldn't read it as i won't pay for the sun club....

Chocolattecoffeecup · 19/07/2026 18:27

Meet the families ep is so boring

OP posts:
Heidi2018 · 19/07/2026 20:26

Im surprised they didnt cancel tonight's episode with the final on. They could easily squeeze 2 days into 1 episode tomorrow because it's a snoozefest at the mo

CaptBirdsEar · 19/07/2026 21:21

Shut up Angalista, no one has died

Yes it is. But at least its not baby episode.

Jasmine etc over doing it with the tears/ fatness enthusiasm..

mumofoneisonozempic · 19/07/2026 21:30

Controversial

I like seeing the men fighting

Live tv should never pan away from the players fighting

mumofoneisonozempic · 19/07/2026 21:31

Ooo wrong thread 😄

Popped on for the football

Haven't watched as I cant do the final week with this cast

Theres something wrong with priya though - she is so desperate to fit in, she let aidan fit in 🤢🤢🤢🤢
