The Bachelor 2017

I am actually in SA lol But travel to Melbourne 1 week a month for work. We want to go on the indian pacific and the ghan too. Be funny if we end up on one at the same time! we have done the overland a few months ago when I got ill in mebourne and was unable to fly home, but would love to go on it again when I don't have bad vertigo so I can look out the window more! If i ever have to travel to sydney foe work i will drag my husband along and so we can meet for that beer

...hey that sounds like a plan!... that's great!... okay Isee we'll see how it pans out... woohoo!... cheers.
 
...even though we're watching this now just for the laughs I can't believe how much I got pissed off with that cop out tonight lol!... I probably will watch it tomorrow onwards regardless of what I said earlier now that I've calmed down after watching that 'Red Dwarf' episode just to continue to pick the living shit out of this crap-arsed show... lol!... afterall... I never intended to ever watch this show but at least it's a vacuous 'filler' show inbetween episodes of 'Survivor' at least I guess?... lol!... cheers.
 
Oh hi I'm always the late one because I'm in WA and I work night shifts as well so can only catch up on Tenplay afterwards.

Florence is quite adorable and also seems pretty real and normal, which is actually a top compliment when you're talking about a show like this. It was particularly straightforward and cute when she said "can I kiss you again?" after getting the rose. :)

Agree that the "to be continued" is totally unnecessary! Like HELLO I'm already addicted to the show anyway and am happy to watch every episode so cliffhangers serve no purpose other than to be annoying.
 
...Sian has decided to walk!... bwahahaha!... the Producers would be batting off right now... and... oh lookie!... she got a few moments alone with Matty and has suddeny decided to stay!... and I thought that Matty was a shitful actor lol!... he's decided to dump her anyway from the sounds of it lol! (awwww!... he's feeling 'unloved' by her obviously?)... what a yawnfest!... lol!... cheers.
her turn-around was pathetic "I don't like him" "I don't like it here" <whine whine> (what DO they think they're signing up for ffs?!?) and then in next breath "I'll stay"
and then the sour face and rolling eyes etc during the rose ceremony - whats the bet Matty had someone down as the one going home but he's been watching her dark thunderous looks all ceremony and thought "nah - not having this!!" and changed his mind
there's a promo showing him saying that hes not a puppet of the producers (but he IS delusional obviously!! especially having gone through it all before for the Bachelorette!)
 
ok so don't judge me - this from Daily Fail today (bored at work obviously!!)
remember - this is trash - its not gospel ... just reading their articles gives me hives - where did these people go to school!?!
I've deleted photos ... left some obvious ones though ;)

The Fantasy Suite has finally arrived! The Bachelor's Matty Johnson 'will enjoy an overnight date' with one contestant - but who will he choose?

By Hannah Paine For Daily Mail Australia

'Fantasy suite' dates are a staple on US series of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, where it is understood the contestants have sex.

And in an Australian first, Matty Johnson will invite one lucky contestant for an overnight 'sleepover' later this season, OK! Magazine reported on Thursday.

It is claimed the 30-year-old marketing manager will choose somebody he has already been on a single date with - that is, either Elora Murger, Lisa Carlton, Laura Byrne, Cobie Frost or Florence Alexandra Sophia.

The Fantasy Suite has finally arrived! In an Australian first, The Bachelor's Matty Johnson (pictured) 'will enjoy an overnight date' with one lucky contestant - but who will he choose?

According to OK!, a future episode will see Matty whisk away a contestant on a 'romantic retreat'. The rendezvous will be the lucky lady's 'second single date'.

The chance to get intimate behind closed doors would be a first for the Australian version of the global TV dating franchise.

In the first series of The Bachelor, Tim Robards declined the opportunity to have an overnight stay in a 'Fantasy Suite' with one of his three finalists.

The Bondi-based chiropractor chose not to take things to the next level, arguing that it wouldn't be 'respectful' to the other women.

Questions remain over who Matty will pick, with fan favourite Laura and the stunning Elora Murger likely front-runners for the intimate soirée.

Meanwhile, Bachelor reject and 'love coach' Belinda Rygier said the attraction between Dutch model Florence and Matty was palpable.

Will he pick Cobie? The coal mine worker is also in the running for an overnight date noooo run Matty RUNNNNN!!!!

Feeling shy? In the first series of The Bachelor, Tim Robards (right) declined the opportunity to have an overnight stay in a 'Fantasy Suite' with one of his three finalists. never watched this series - just curious - was it Anna who was offered up to him as an overnighter?? (they are now engaged after something like 3 years together - think he was feeling the pressure after Sam & Snez got engaged and are now expecting a child together (its a Girl!!)

Changed his mind? The reports of an overnight date with one of the contestants comes despite Matty previously telling OK! he thought it was 'a good call' to keep sex off limits


'I saw him look at Florence one night in her dress, like "Wowee!" His eyes dropped to the floor. There's sexual chemistry there,' Belinda told the magazine.

The reports of an overnight date with one of the contestants comes despite Matty previously telling OK! he thought it was 'a good call' to keep sex off limits.

'I don't think it's needed to find out who you end up with,' he explained.

Daily Mail Australia has contacted Network Ten for comment and??? no comment??? or did they just leave a message on an answering machine and think that qualifies as contact??

Georgia Love has been moaning that she's "uncomfortable" watching "her boyfriend" Matty dating other women. WTF? Sounds like double standards to me, she was quite happy to string all those guys along until it was time to dump them. That's what these shows are for. The idea of sharing a "boyfriend" or "girlfriend" and auditioning dozens of people to be it is not something you do in the real world, so deal with it.
 
never watched this series - just curious - was it Anna who was offered up to him as an overnighter??

Not just her; at a late stage in the show - I can't remember exactly but I think when there are 3 candidates left? - on their single dates with these final candidates, the bachelor/bachelorette gets offered keys to a private room with no cameras where they can, er, consummate the relationship if they so desire. In the Australian version no one has yet to take up this offer... and now that it's several seasons in I don't know if any Aussie wants to be the first to do it when all the predecessors have set this example. In the American version however they seem pretty happy about trialing the goods, so to speak. Then again the American version there also seems to be more of a pressure to actually do a marriage proposal at the end, which to me is pretty crazy even for a show that's supposed to be crazy.

On the other hand... it will be nice to see a repeat of that footage of Sian looking like she's swallowing a wasp or a bumblebee every time she's not chosen! It's so funny.

On a completely random aside I really like your teddy bear pic!

Back on topic I was just reading about the latest american bachelorette. I won't say too much in case its a spoiler but definitely the proposal thing seems like it is an expectation. I guess if it maybe you would wanna check out if you are compatible in bed before you popped the question, but that just makes this whole thing so much more weird. No wonder most don't work out over there.
 
...evenin' all... yes I did turn up for the shitfest afterall lol!... so!... are we ready for the 'dramatic conclusion' to last night's episode?... **YAWN!**... roll the sobbin' and bitchin' and all of the incoming "oh my gosh!" exaggerated facial expressions that the girls are contractually obliged to do lol!... I don't intend to get angry at all tonight folks... let's see just how long that lasts eh?... lol!... cheers.
