😂 sorry I found Hunter meeting Manrika so funny. He’s got a bit of a cheek saying stuff about her when he was fake all along 😂 Jesus I’m not manrikas biggest fan but he went off like a child. It is a game after all. Having read this thread seems I’m in a minority but I didn’t like him from the start. Just didn’t get good vibes from him and I just felt using the whole thing of donating to the nhs was just a way to stay in longer

Well chuffed that I found this thread 😆 going to get jumped on, but voted for manrika for the poll but am now a solid hashu/Syed supporter after reading this thread 😂

The only reason I wanted manrika to win initially was because she was helping family get out of debt etc. But I've realised she is a game player like there's no tomorrow

Come on uncle Syed! #WhatTheBloody
 
100%

And he had to walk a very thin line between putting someone in their place and a 47 year old man bulling a young woman lmao
Thats very true tbf. I personally wouldn't have judged him for being a little bit more direct with her though tbh, she really thought she could talk her way around her hypocrisy like she did with Tally and while he clearly wasn't convinced or fooled by her I couldn't help but feel like she thought that she'd come out of that with him convinced (or maybe just herself) that everything she said was true and she really is this "changed" person and not just basically a catfish in all aspects but her photograph.

I also think the whole condemning him for pretending to be a nurse by both Manrika and Andy was puuuuurely for the cameras and the obvious popular public opinion because of recent events. Particularly Andy tbh, if the NHS mean soooOooOOo much to him like he keeps saying surely catfish or not he would be on board with trying to help somebody win a 50k donation?

I don't like either of them but I'm particularly feeling more and more disdain for Andy because he's SO sneaky with his manipulation! Because he's not just putting on his actual for the others on the show, he's carefully doing it for the public viewing too.
 
That meeting between Manrika and James would have gone a lot differently if manrika wasn’t so horrible when he first walked in. There was no need for her to act like that, like she’s said herself multiple times “it’s a game” so why act so hostile to someone who is also playing the game!? They would have sat and had a laugh about everything if she wasn’t nasty from the off. And this whole acting like he’s the worst person in the world for pretending to be a nurse is ridiculous, what felix is doing is sooo much worse!!!
And I feel like very proud of how James acted, he was obviously very angry and upset but he never raised his voice, he kept his body language turned away from her and stayed sat down. He was obviously aware that he was a very large man and she’s a small female and he got his point across with seeming intimidating or threatening, he did such a good job 👏🏼👏🏼
 
I have just started watching series one as I have only seen this third series. Omg they are all so unlikeable 😂😂 the lady with the baby is the only decent person. God the lads in it are just horrible sex obsessed idiots and the girls are just dull

I really liked Alex/ Kate when it was on and was so happy he won, does he not come across so well now? I haven't watched any back since it was initially aired
 
Me either, think it took a while for Alex to grow on me but I really liked Sian and Freddie
I've just finished series 1 (I actually haven't seen the last 10 mins or so).

Freddie is awful. Entertaining, but sooo immature, bitchy, selfish, loud (can you imagine actually being in his presence?!) and pretty much a sex pest. He admitted he sends unsolicited dick picks and there would be outrage if a straight man spoke about the women how he speaks about all the blokes. I get that there is a stereotype of gay men being promiscuous but (horrible) Ryan managed to compose himself in that way. He was overly composed in most ways actually. 😂

omg Freddie does my head in 😂😂 so irritating

😂😂 thanks now I know who wins. And I’ve just seen who wins the second one in a comment below 😂😂 fucking serves me right I suppose for talking about something that aired ages ago

I don't personally agree with some of Manrika's actions and I think she has been ruthless at times, but on the other hand, it's a game show to win 100k and she is playing the game very well. Christ 100k would literally change someone's life. I know you can win and be genuinely nice
(Kate/Alex)
but everyone is hiding something, it's the name of the game to be the most popular, not the most nice. Manrika is just playing a faker, more saccharine version of herself.
I'm in the minority but I'm not mad at her tbh and I wouldn't mind if she won as she's played well.
Obvs Hashu is my favourite though and I'm backing Uncle Syed all the way

I thought Dan was really genuine and a good person. He let himself down in the end a little bit but I thought he was really genuine throughout. I really liked Sian on there too.

yeah Dan is alright. Seems pretty sound but I’m only on the fifth episode so yet to see much drama
 
I’m legit gassed to see her find out felix is a woman. I’m on the fence with what Natalia is doing she’s very much playing with manrikas feelings a bit too much ??

bloody hell Natalia is absolutely stunning though isn’t she

back to series one who the FUCK is this plum saying he’s a huge fan of Nigel farage 🥴
