    Watching it recorded,is there only 1 Irish person?

    Georgina was so obnoxious, when she asked if she could speak I blurted out "NO" at the telly.
    The first episode was a masterpiece of how you don't do it.

    I have to say I really enjoyed the episode. Very much in the "so bad its entertaining" category.

    Watching episode 2 now. I see they havn't changed the age old trope of "supposedly" ringing them at 4.30am and saying the cars will be outside in 20 minutes.

    Now ignoring the fact there is a shot of them leaving the house and getting into the cars supposedly at 4.50am and the sun is splitting the stone outside, but the unlikeable estate agent goes "I'm showering first". There's 10 men left and its inferred there is one shower between then. I dont see how you get 10 men showered and dressed in 20 minutes unless its one big communal shower.

    I'm cautious of spoilers, but lets just say, the mens idea this week is SH!T.

    The womens team is not great, but the mens… well you will see.

    Think this is the worst bunch I've ever seen. Hardly a likeable person amongst them and all absolutely shambolic.

    Ive been watching every year for the last ~13 years, and I feel like what you just said every year!

    It is clearly heavily edited and I do feel some candidates are set up a little to fail. But in some cases they also give them just enough rope to hang themselves with.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭dobman88


    Ah we'd normally find someone to root for or see something decent in 1 or 2 candidates. But this year seems especially poor to us. So much so that I'm wondering if I'll even bother sticking with it

    Well we're only two episodes in, it always takes a few weeks to meet the new group and decide who you like.

    I do quite like the Irish guy. He was quite sensible in the first episode.
