Confession ….. I have never watched more than a few minutes of this prog but this time around I plan to because Fred Sirieix, Grace Dent and Nigel Farage are in it which should be interesting.

I want to know now, Aveline!

I was a bit put off Josie when she said the men should get the meat as they need it more.

i missed that!

Aveline Wed 22-Nov-23 20:31:38

I know a good joke about that but I daren't post it on here Callistemon.

Genuine question - can you munch tofu? I’d always thought of it as like a sort of cheese texture, no chewing required?

I've only eaten it once, then had to force it down because it looked so unappealing.

Tofumunching wokerati perhaps Callistemon?

😁

We're watching something far more intellectual - penguins pooing in the snow, followed by Shetland.

After a tofu and vegetable stirfry 🙂

Oh, sorry apparently it was chicken, not tofu according to DH.

I've never tried it Casdon...

Nella was unfair to Fred, what he said was completely normal and nothing to do with her real Dad grin I quite like Josie even though I don;t know who she is. I reckon she will be really lovely and then randomly lose her shit at some point and t will make great entertainment

I can find better ways to waste my time

Like posting on a thread about it?

😂

Well she's not exactly wasting away. 😸

DH said the same!

merlotgran Wed 22-Nov-23 15:57:30

I hope she likes rice and beans. 😂

I shouted that too Thisismynameblush. Fred did know about her parents but as we all know that's completely irrelevant. If she hadn't had that to make a song and dance over, she'd have found something else and no doubt will be doing so very soon.

She's a trouble maker and will be making camp very awkward for everyone else while she refuses to talk to Fred and eat anything he cooks.

I hope he continues to be the chef grin.

Callistemon21 Wed 22-Nov-23 14:37:39

I don't usually vote although I did vote for Jill last year.

I can make an exception- when does the voting start? I'll vote Nella out.
The other young woman should be taken out, she is obviously too fragile to cope.

Thisismyname1953 Wed 22-Nov-23 13:37:37

I liked for the first two episodes but then it all went downhill due to her disgusting treatment of Fred . He meant no harm when he he’s old enough to be her dad. It’s true , he is . He probably didn’t know her dad was dead , and when he tried to apologise she shut him down . I admit to shouting F* off at the tv to Nella . Poor Fred . I hope Nella is first out for such behaviour.

Nella's just not very bright is she. I felt so sorry for Fred. He is old enough to be her Dad. She was completely unreasonable and irritating.

This.....

Callistemon21 Wed 22-Nov-23 13:01:06

I’m sure she won’t last long on her ‘hunger strike
🤔 as long as she drinks water she should be ok.

Callistemon21 Wed 22-Nov-23 13:00:10

I've read it now.

Poor girl, she really has problems, doesn't she. Fred was just trying to be supportive, as far as I can tell from reading it.

I am concerned about what the producers are looking for when people are chosen to be in such a close environment, placed under stress. Are they hoping someone will have a MH breakdown on camera?

Callistemon21 Wed 22-Nov-23 12:54:28

Am I the only one who missed what happened?

Keeleklogger Wed 22-Nov-23 12:34:56

This is what happens when you live life behind the lens and then come up against real life people ! Just showed her immaturity and lack of understanding of the real world! Felt sorry for Fred! He’s a true gent and didn’t deserve that! I’m sure she won’t last long on her ‘hunger strike

tickingbird Wed 22-Nov-23 12:09:19

Maybe Fred should play the race card instead. I’m sure if the skin colour was reversed there would be cries of racism as poor Fred was definitely picked on by the awful Nella.

Joseann Wed 22-Nov-23 11:37:28

Aveline

I see on Twitter (X) that she's expected to play the race card soon or, at least, once she's voted out. Of course her current unpopularity is nothing to do with racism, it's her behaviour.

And she'd be barking up the wrong tree to try that with Fred in view of his partner who he is going to marry next year.
