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

I think maybe Samraj had 'old fashioned values' aka some misogyny .... look how he reacted to Mica dancing (although exacerbated by the others). His reaction to Priya telling him to Fuck Off was strange.

Well Priya has f*ed the chance of winning ! She has had so much backlash from public over her comments re Elicia working at National Rail ! Disgusting thing for her to say who the hell does she think she is ? Bit rich coming from someone shown shagging in the hideaway on National TV ! Tiz in Daily Fail

Is it just me or has this series been very boring. I’ve watched it for years. All the Aidan/Priya bullshit now is such a load of off pre- rehearsed director lead rubbish.

Very very, Aiden is the worse for producer led chats, absolutely everything that comes out his mouth.
Priya was laughing when he sat her down to tell her off about the Elicia national rail comments!
Production are idiots, we don't want to see staged chatsthat aren't natural.
It would have played out better if we just watched what really happened later on!!

Prlya is the only one that actually doesn't have a filter.

Twonewcats · 23/07/2026 14:22

I'm watching last night's now.

Samraj STILL banging on about Priya telling him to fuck off is wild. It's not something that I'd personally take any offence at, it's no biggie. AND it was a reply to the insult he made at her! She was more than justified. And I'd love to know what Ellie would have said, if it had been her that he'd called embarrassing 😅

He definitely has some red flag qualities, that's for sure.

Twonewcats · 23/07/2026 14:25

OMG, Jaz sobbing about Kav, and when Tommy asks how Kav feels seeing her upset, he says that it shows how much she cares 😅😅
Main character syndrome!

Aquarius1234 · 23/07/2026 14:31

Lorenzo is as totally fake as Aiden imo.
Everything that comes out his mouth is carefully said/ very stilted and never slips up.
Or I feel like chats/

FiloPasty · 23/07/2026 14:32

That’s why I don’t want Jas and Kav to win. I feel like Kav’s behaviour has been awful.

Aquarius1234 · 23/07/2026 14:34

Online were going wild about The National rail comment, Love Island showed the clip of it, yet also staged and intervention with Aiden.

These people couldn't cope with Big Brother back in the day. It would be one of 100 comments said in the heat of the moment and no arranged de brief of what was said and a staged chat/ saying sorry session.

Frazerr · 23/07/2026 14:57

I saw the furore over the national rail comment, I’m not sure I’m desensitised after years of watching chaotic reality tv back in the day lol.
Imagine you had someone let loose like Tiffany Pollard in there ‘I would like to let Gemma know…’

Yeah I would rather watch more of natural group settings along with bitchy comments... than all these ridiculous one on one pre planned chats.
You could literally see the cogs turning in Aidens head trying to remember the words he needs to say..

Ps Priya is totally harmless. Again did people never watch Big Brother 15/ 20 years ago?

I find Mica / Jasmine more sinister. Im introverted and can't stand fake cliquey people. But Priya wouldn't be who I find the worst at all. Shes not evil and snakey.
Think of all the people at work, you would rather not say hi to if you ever saw them in the supermarket/ towns.
Understand, sneaky, Arse lickers.

B9waiting · 23/07/2026 15:16

If Elicia had been CEO of GlaxoSmithKline (or something else equally impressive), Priya would have still told her to fuck of back to Glaxo - it was nothing to do with National Rail & everything to do with putting her ‘back in her box’

Ridiculous anyone is sensitive about that - people really do need to toughen up & not look for offense / be so offended these days!

Agreed. His conflict style is “Only I’m right” in every single interaction and he comes off really poorly when he rows with women. He definitely suffers from a touch of superiority and grandiosity because he thinks he wins these arguments. It is going to be a real lesson when he sees that outside observers just don’t agree with his definition of “winning”. It is just unpleasant.

It's horrid. And you're right, he has got to win the argument at all costs. Even when Mica danced with Aiden, and it was also no biggie, he wasn't happy. But later, she said it was what they do in Barbados, and he was still pissed at her.
She didn't even need to explain. It was just a dance in a room full of people.

Completely it's not like her arse actually touched him.

I do wonder if there are some cultural issues going on with Samraj and Priya. At the beginning of the series, I recall a “Yay! We are both Punjabi” vibe between them that seemed quite sweet. But I do wonder if Priya challenges Samraj’s view of what a woman of Punjabi heritage should be. And he doesn’t like it.

Yes, that's an interesting point, and i suspect not that far wide of the mark.

Yep as if Aiden would ever have thought to have that chat. Production chose the wrong person, it was never going to look believable with Aiden. They should have asked Jas or Yasmine to have the chat with her and then we might not have immediately spotted the fakery.

I still think she was just letting off steam and being defensive after weeks of being treated like shit. She even got the worst kisser rating it’s so cruel. It’s not fair to pull her up on one comment. Poor Priya. I went from not liking her to now wanting her to win 🤣 On her own of course if only they were possible!

Whereas I've gone the opposite way.

I did think the worst kisser thing was cruel. But since then, I've seen her wave her tongue around like a rhythmic gymnast's ribbon, amd kind of agree with the boys.

Not that that's relevant, I just think she's desperate to win with whoever, fucked up re Ethan, and isn't very nice.

I actually hope that you’re right! Because if she is a genuinely lovely person then it’s awful how much she’s been put down and rejected. If she’s not so nice then I guess she’s been brought down a peg or two, or three, which might be a good thing.

Yeah I can’t watch the kissing 😬

Aiden is clearly continuing things as he doesn’t want to leave. Suspect Priya is relieved he isn’t “deading 🤦🏼‍♀️” it as then she might have to leave too and if she wanted to leave she’d have gone already.

Did anyone else think Julia looked sad/defeated at the shitty awards ceremony? I feel like she realised her and Lorenzo aren’t going to go anywhere.

She looked sad and defeated all episode, yes

Priya is half Punjabi ( her mother is white) so she may not have been raised with the same cultural expectations and /or restrictions that some Punjabi women may experience

Frazerr · 23/07/2026 21:11

Not sure why they get so worked up about getting accused of wanting to get to the final 😂

Aquarius1234 · 23/07/2026 21:17

Its totally true what Priya is saying, Love Island is the same old shit every year! Lol

Aquarius1234 · 23/07/2026 21:25

Aiden has a creepy body.
This is fake and stupid.
