Stephen is vile. He is horrible about almost everyone and everything. Really nasty tone to a lot of “jokes” and the way he talks about his salon clients is mean.

I don’t mind Dave & Shirley, but Dave brings sexual innuendo into EVERYTHING! It’s clearly all he thinks about. Give it a rest, Dave!

Personally I’d get rid of all of them except the Siddiquis, Giles & Mary, Amira & Amani (so underrated - Amira’s commentary on McDonalds being closed at 11pm in Vienna or somewhere I think a few series ago had my crying my eyes out) and Marcus & Mica. Dave & Shirley can stay if Dave stops with bringing it back to shagging all the time. Jenny & Lee can stay if they stop playing up to the cameras, the Malones too.
i love Amira and Amani..Amira is so funny !
 
The thing with Pete and Sophie, and I'm sure it's been noted here before, is that they constantly seem to be in competition with one another as to who can be the funniest. So one of them makes a remark about something and the other will always go further with it, as though they are constantly trying to get one up on the other. I think Pete is worse for this.

I've also mentioned it hear to death but the innuendo and sex talk between them really wears thin with me, although it has admittedly toned down a bit this series.
 
I can never work out what Pete and Sophie's living situation is. Do they still live with their parents or have they moved out and got a place together?

They obviously have a very good relationship but the sexual innuendos do go toooo far in my opinion.
 
I personally don't find Pete/Sophie's relationship that weird. I think it depends on how you are with your siblings / your kind of sense of humour. I have a very open relationship with my siblings and would find similar things funny. I actually think it's really refreshing / lovely that they obviously get on really well together, want to spend lots of time with the other etc. It's something that a lot of brothers/sisters don't have.
There's something weird about Giles and Mary IMO, something doesn't sit quite right.

He’s engaged to
Someone so presumably he lives with his partner? I think the house they film in is his house from what I’ve heard said before.

I agree. Sophie & Pete are similar in age and seem to have a relationship that’s more mates than just a sibling relationship- they just bounce off each other - like friends do. Sometimes it may be a little crude but I don’t think it’s weird or strange at all, they are just joking around with each other and obviously are close enough to know each others humour.
 
I think Giles & Mary are both rather eccentric which may make them appear a bit odd. I don't mind them but they are on screen quite a lot.
I think initially it was genuine banter between them but now I feel like Giles deliberately plays up to the cameras and says stuff to try to be odd/funny and she in turn over plays her reactions for the same reason. It’s the same chat with them every week, it’s a bit boring.

I really like the 3 brothers from Bristol - I think they are really funny and they make me laugh a lot
