    damn..I was hoping it was Kaz and Josh:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,021 ✭✭✭✭anewme


    Right choice.

    Laura is a fake dodo (horrendous acting last night) and he’s s tool.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,996 ✭✭✭Duck Soup


    The smug pretties - Kaz/Josh, Megan/Wes - are always near the bottom of the voting pile. I shall miss New Laura's buttocks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,423 ✭✭✭Harleen Quinzel


    Ah no, I jynxed Rasta Jack by supporting him :eek:

    I still don't see the smugness.

    Alex won't take the Ferrari out of first!

    Oh god, I do. It's a major turn off I'm guessing for viewer-voters.

    Maybe yizzer all racialists: 3 guys up for the boot were all black.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,722 ✭✭✭jluv


    I didn't care for new Laura but did like Jack. Dr Alex is equally annoying and funny. Josh and Kas are just pure smug. Not only do they think they are going to win but they come across to me as thinking noone has a "relationship"like theirs or look as good as them while not adding anything entertaining to the show..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,021 ✭✭✭✭anewme


    I also think new Laura was very unpopular.

    Read comments on another forum about hating her voice and the fake rich style and use of the word like.

    I did not like anything about her either.

    Every time I saw her she reminded me to buy a new bra.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,423 ✭✭✭Harleen Quinzel


    I like Josh and Kaz. They’re both hot and know it, but if I looked like that I’d probably feel smug too, tbh :D

    The rest of the “couples”, I like one person from each.
    Apart from Alexandra, who I love :D

    So I want Josh and Kaz to win just to see Dani enraged because she thinks she has it sewn up since the first week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,996 ✭✭✭Duck Soup

    There's actually a rake of research that shows that black women are the ones most usually dismissed as potential mates. How many black girls have you seen across the reality shows in major romantic entanglements?

    Mixed race people - Kaz, Josh etc - of both sexes also feature highly as potential partners. But you can pretty much discount the black girl at the outset of any romantic show, no matter how pretty or charming she is.

    SE Asian - Thai, Vietnamese, Korean - women are also highly popular choices but not SE Asian men (I think Kaz's mum is Thai).

    It doesn't mean people are racist, but they do tend to impose their own preferences onto the people on shows.

    It was really just a gag about Jack...but yeah, cool

    I got that, but I just wanted to get the studies stuff in somewhere because I've just been watching a UK documentary called Is Love Racist? It's fronted by a mixed-race Irish woman called Emma Dabiri. Well worth seeing.

    So the studies imply that people impose their own preferences....which would suggest thats what's happening here and people then sub-consciously mask that with "its cos they're smug".

    As soon as I heard the babies crying I switched off.

    I have a 2 year old and a 9 month old. Real life is more than enough of that ****


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,573 ✭✭✭JeffKenna


    For a laugh they should have given Kaz and Josh a white baby


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,134 ✭✭✭jimwallace197


    Still a bit surprised how Dr.Alex survived the vote last night. I think him and Alexandra are the most likely to break up immediately after they finish the show


  • Registered Users Posts: 491 ✭✭buswankers

    Of course they are - he's clearly not into her at all! Someone said earlier he's too posh for her which I completely agree with.... but apparently
    something happens after their "final date" tonight and I think they finish

    Heard
    He contemplates breaking up with her. Has a better time with a Ferrari during their date and admits he doesn't have the feelings he should have for her at this point, so then Jack tells him to tell her. Whether he does or no we will see.

    Also heard this, which I hope is wrong
    Jack has a big question to ask Dani apparently during their hot air balloon date. It better be something like moving in after the show or something but paper teased a proposal. Surely not, if so the most scripted and staged thing I've seen in all my years of reality tv.

    That's an absolute joke if that's true...
    they haven't even slept together yet! What happened to try before you buy!! Even asking her to move in with him is waaay too soon!!

    Power went out last night and it didn't record for me. Normally that would be very irritating but with this show not so much

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,480 ✭✭✭Chancer3001


    That baby episode was shocking bad

    No stop Crying sound. Horrific


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,648 ✭✭✭✭skipper_G


    I caved and watching on catch up, the episode was pretty crap but the cinematic version of gangstas paradise playing over the dumping was totally badass


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,996 ✭✭✭Duck Soup


    I wonder if Alex has a medical condition to be that pink.

    He has a skin condition I think.

    Didnt the one from Geordie Shore call him a “pink pig” or something like that and his family let her have it.

    That would be Charlotte Crosby. I love that woman. If I could bottle what she has I could make millions. Mind you, it'd probably smell of piss and leak onto the floor.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,909 ✭✭✭Gwynplaine


    Ya bravvah an sistah.
    They are so like the couple in the Catherine Tate show.
    They're so in love, yet haven't gone further than a peck on the lips.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,322 ✭✭✭✭gmisk


    I have this taping.... Should I just skip to the Alex and Alexandra...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,681 ✭✭✭Try_harder

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,681 ✭✭✭Try_harder

    Innit. I was seriously going to adjust the colour balance on the telly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,657 ✭✭✭✭Alf Veedersane


    Missus: What is Alexandra wearing?!

    Me: Too much.

    *slap*



    I've had my fun and that's all that matters.

    Tell her that's just scientific fact and nick her Quality Street.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,996 ✭✭✭Duck Soup


    Any time Alex gets near money - luxury cars, New Laura's accent - he gets a hard-on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,657 ✭✭✭✭Alf Veedersane


    Are the producers pushing the car or do Ferraris have a gear less than 1st?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,480 ✭✭✭Chancer3001


    He's as disinterested in her as possible


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,681 ✭✭✭Try_harder


    He will drop her like its hot when he leaves


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,205 ✭✭✭Gringo180


    She really isnt great at picking up signs is she.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,480 ✭✭✭Chancer3001


    Alex "doesn't like pda " is a silly defence mechanism for him because he did so terrible with all the ladies.

    He was delighted to drop the head on Hailey that time she pied him early on.

    His confidence just took a bashing and he's claiming "oh I don't want to sure "


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,681 ✭✭✭Try_harder


    I love cars... no mention of Alexandra
