Tim is bordering on ruining the series for me, even worse than Freddie from last year. There’s eccentric and there’s attention seeking.

Oh come on!! you can't compare him to Freddie who was a screeching shrieking toss pot ! he even stripped naked and jumped up and down for air time literally!!!:facepalm: , plus he burped & broke wind constantly like a pig :yuk: .

I didnt like freddie either.

Tim is just too staged for me. From eccentric clothes, Santa claus demeanour, and idiotic delight at everything.
It's just too much, too ott to be real.
It's a lot of small things that seem to be slightly off that puts me off him.
I may be wrong but just dont buy it.

I honestly think that's how he is IRL , i don't know him and i had to do my research on him. But i think he's just a jolly eccentric guy who's happy :shrug: but who knows eh .

I buy his persona more than Freddie's , it's more believable . whereas Freddie was always acting like a drama queen 24/7 for the cameras and the burping / breaking wind and the screaming was like ear abuse :facepalm:

There has been a bit too much airtime on Tim and Georgina, I feel I know nothing about Brooke really.

They could have actually started with more people, that was suggested last year, instead of putting in loads of newer people later who will just be quickly out the door anyway.

I already dislike the 2 newbies going in and i know nothing about them:inamood: , i'm still trying to get used to Ella aswell.

This is why i want Brooke to be an influencer but i can't see it happening .

This is my impression too. He's convinced me that he's an eccentric who enjoys meeting lots of different people and having unusual experiences- hence, his choice to enter The Circle at his age. At the moment, I like him and believe he is genuine. However, time might prove me wrong!

I don't know what it says about me but your description of him just makes me think 'aww'! :facepalm:

I'm with your bf re Tim at the moment, Twosugars! Although you've now got me questioning myself!

Georgina... the nation's sweetheart jumped out!

I also found his German dancing & him blowing that instrument amusing :joker:.

Yes he's a bit 'carry on' innuendo & I'm always expecting hi to say "ohhh matron" but he's not creepy with it lol

I'm questioning myself now too :laugh:
I may be completely wrong about him.
Let's see how it goes from here.

Another thing that bothers me is "Sammie" using a child.
I'd ban that.
Imagine if all of them did that

It's a weird one as it's clever but then it's manipulative. I didn't mind Sammi though & I think his game plan is working .

I think "Sammie" will get a hard time when he's exposed as he's pulled on everyone's heartstrings . I personally couldn't lie like that . But it's a game .

I'm actually curious if anyone ever thought about changing their colour/ race before entering the circle, we've had gender swaps , age swaps & sexuality changes . But never a race change .

I don't like the idea of banning alternate identities at all, that's what makes it more interesting. It's already infantile with all the BB-like sex comments anyway, if anyone has pretentions of this being more adult then you don't ban gameplay, you assume the audience can cope with the whole game. If the tabloids get their moral hypocrisy up that's their problem.

All of them are using something to get liked, whether real or imagined. On Australian Survivor a contestant pretended he had a child to get more allies, and it worked. If he hadn't he would probably have had less allies, that shows more the shallowness of people. You have to look at it from both angles, not just the person with the story (true or false) but the reactions they get as well. Anything that shows how shallow people are is good to me.

I love Tim and his cat 🐈:laugh:

Tonight, the contestants will anonymously send questions to eachother :fan:

Some of the ones to Jay include;
- Are you really Jay’s mum catfashing as Jay
- Whats the wholesale price of a brick

Someones about to get caught :hehe:

just watched last nights, my thoughts on them all atm are...

Jay/Katie - I liked her at first but its almost painful to watch now.. the hashtags are too much.

Georgina/Brooke - my faves obviously

Tim - I like him and think hes a nice guy but anyone who says he isn't playing up to the cameras must be blind..

Sammie/James - horrible accent.. and Sammie is so boring idk why they all like her so much.

Woody - I like him a lot he seems pretty sweet

Ella - seems alright, could either be really great or really annoying

Hey

God I hate both of them

So Jack is in for annoying showmances.

How do you feel about someone if they lie about their ethnicity?? .
I'm curious as we've never had that.

Absolutely fine with it. They can pretend they are from whatever culture they want.



after the ad break they showed shots of London, even though it's actually in Salford now

What happened to voice activiation huh

Whys she bothering with spelling when its all voice activated

last year many thought it was someone typing furiously behind the scenes

"I reckon Jay's mum is sat there with a page of these acronyms"
[Cuts to a shot of Katie smiling]

:skull:

im SCREAMING @ katie reading thru her list of acronyms fhdsjksdj

GMV - got my vote AHHH

I find Jay much more entertaining than Georgina

Nice one Ella

I LOVE sexy Beth

Mess @ him just ditching her like that :skull:

Lmao @ him leaving the private chat just as she was about to reply.

Liking both of the newbies so far.

Jack's message appeared on his screen before he said it the hell?

Ella can piss off

Jack was put in for showmances - boring

Does anyone know which guests will be on on Friday night? (Presumably there still going with that structure) hated the last episode but it might grow on me if they have good guests

Fff our Beth is getting lashings on Twitter for saying she doesn't think people will fancy her due to the ugly girl she's using

She never even said ugly. It's just like Sian's first photo last year, using a non-glamorous, more girl next door look.
