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.

Am I the only one who missed what happened?

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?

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

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.....

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.

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.

Smileless2012 Wed 22-Nov-23 15:26:00

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.

Well she's not exactly wasting away. 😸

I hope she likes rice and beans. 😂

Like posting on a thread about it?

😂

Tofumunching wokerati perhaps Callistemon?

Casdon Wed 22-Nov-23 17:37:27

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

JaneJudge Wed 22-Nov-23 19:20:14

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

Aveline Wed 22-Nov-23 19:51:49

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

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

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

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

i missed that!

Callistemon21 Wed 22-Nov-23 20:36:22

I want to know now, Aveline!

Was she joking?

lemsip Wed 22-Nov-23 21:49:35

oh dear, the 'meeting' of nella and nigel is so contrived and 'set up' .

josie saying the men need more meat is from back in the day when the men always got more dinner on their plate.

Primrose53 Wed 22-Nov-23 22:18:16

Nella should calm down and listen. NF was calm and patient with her but she just would not listen. Shouting “I’m an immigrant, I’m one of them.” I thought she was born here.
Then shouting that black people hate him was very rude too because as he pointed out he spends a lot of time in South London with black people who like him.
