Some thoughts on tonights episode .....
First of all wayyyyyy too many tears. I feel like they are just crying to Ru for air time at this point and I’m sat here rolling my eyes at them

The snatch game was quite painful to watch! What with Sour faced Gemma Collins, boring Michelle and Ru not knowing any of the British sayings, nevermind the queens all being unfunny except for Bimini.
Tia was so unfunny I cringed everytime she spoke, and I still have no idea who Lawrence was but was also cringeworthy! Also don’t agree that they were allowed to do characters such a Vicky and Kath as they are easier and lazier to imitate a character than to imitate an actual person imo. I love Tayce and I love Kaths character but put them together and it still just didn’t quite work for me

I thought some of Alan Carr’s comments were hilarious, i’d love it if he replaced Ru as the host


Very glad at who went but I’m hoping for sister or Ellie next week
 
It’s been a long time coming for Tia - she improved she didn’t quite get it together in time. The Mel B didn’t really land. Tia is quite witty so relying on crude outrage humour didn’t work for her. I love her and wish she got better faster.

I thought Lawrence’s Miriam didn’t work at all, not only did she not quite get the voice - she still sounded a bit Scottish - but it was all over the place. One second, she was a thespian lesbian, the next, creaming her knickers over Laurence Olivier? She went in so hard on the Laurence thing when Miriam is obscure enough as is - how are the two connected? Especially when all some people know about Miriam is that she is a lesbian...to go on about creaming herself over a man and that be one of the only things she says??

Bimini was great as per
 
I was worried for Lawrence when I saw he was doing Miriam Margolyes and jings he was awful!!! But to be honest the whole Snatch Game was terrible. Even Bikini, although good, wasn't a patch on last year.

But did Lawrence deserve to be bottom 2??? I don't think so. I think his runway just about saved him. Where as Sister Sister turns up with a bone mask - same as Awhora 🤔🤔🤔

They're obviously just marking time till Sister Sister gets papped out.

But I'll really miss Tia Kofi. She's was fabulously funny. But then I pure love a good basic 😂😂😂

My thoughts on tonight 😀😀😀
 
Bimini is just 😍😍😍 made me proper belly laugh and at 29 weeks pregnant that is a risk 🤣

The comments literally confused me, but I didn't know who Tayce was. I thought Awhora was so funny! Funnier than Tayce IMO.

Lawrence and sister coming out looking the same. Is sister still stealing looks?! Time for her to go, sorry Sis.

Yeah the tears felt forced to me. Maybe I'm just stone hearted though 😂

Bimini was amazing but the rest of it felt a bit flat. Gemma was shite. I'd have rathered Cheryl Hole playing the GC on the panel tbh. Also feels like the easy way out to play a character like Vicky Pollard because the work has already been done, you know all their catchphrases so you just need to make them land!

Had a right laugh when Ellie said he was always impersonating Vicky Pollard as a kid - Little Britain started in 2003 and Ellie was born in 1998. Cmon 😂

He was rehashing an actual anecdote of her's from the Graham Norton show - it was never going to work! Either you don't know it and it's totally random, or you recognise it and know he's just copying
 
Im so surprised how much Bimini has grown on me

lawrence Chaney was not good in the snatch game, the likeness was not good enough and the jokes fell so flat. but it was quite meh all round. Loved Tayce in it though and thought Bimini was good too. Gemma Collins was awful. I am so glad that Tia has gone outfitswise, I loved her personality out of drag in the little interview bits but she always looked so flat and basic otherwise and I got a bit fed up. Also raised an eyebrow at Lawrence’s tears at the end, felt a bit switched on but I dunno

I don't get the sister sister copying two people. I thought her look was different.

Yeah agreed. She wasn't copying. I think it's hard to make "prehistoric" stand out (but Bimini did think outside of the box) and you're obviously gonna get a lot of tiger print, bones, flintstones-inspired looks. I think some people are just looking to pick holes with her which is a shame.

Yeah I must admit I said the copying thing in jest. It was a weird runway category as there isn't much you can do!
 
I'm sorry but I don't think Tia deserved a spot on the show at all. What did she bring? She made no effort, wasted her opportunities, had a crappy attitude and the only half decent thing she did was the rap in UK Hun. I'm glad she's finally gone, although I was a bit disappointed for Lawrence. She could have done so much better. Also changed my mind on A'whora, I thought she was a BTEC Adore Delano but she seems to be really shining through now 💋
 
Ngl getting a bit fed up of Lawrence and the waterworks. I let it slide when he cried on the first two episodes but its getting a bit ridiculous now - you just have to take a bit of criticism on the chin. You can't win every week! I think Ru has coddled him a bit though. I so hope Bimini wins - what a legend!!!

Oh my god I can’t agree more! I’m so bloody glad she’s gone, one of the most dullest queens i’ve ever seen. She’s not funny in the slightest, her runways are tit and she wouldn’t take Ru’s advice and just kept doing the same each week. Shocked she lasted as long as she did and I agree with A’whora’s comments about her just not taking their critiques and doing the exact same every week then when she’d fall flat just “promise I’ll do better next week”.

So so happy for Bimini she’s my favourite to win I adore her! Tayce is an absolute babe too.

Agree with this too! Just because you aren’t top one week doesn’t mean you’re going home (unless you duck up badly) like come on you’ve got 3 badges already and she’s clearly Ru’s favourite. Just take the critiques and apply them to the next week. It definitely felt forced at some points too like one minute sobbing and the next oh she’s completely fine.
