Really interesting to hear the crazy process to get those insta followers and a clothing line with miss pap, been a long time follower since season 1 and its amazing to see the growth of love island as a brand (as its now a fully fledged brand isn't it.) However, I do have a few questions.If someone is scouted would they still need to go through the whole process of screen tests etc, i cant see someone such as dani dyer going through the hassle of screen testing if she was hand picked but then she was on an ITV show before that so maybe not? Also, as someone who has been on the show what are your views on the diversity issue? Do you really think they are looking for a certain "basic white person" or a "token black girl" or do you think it just comes down to more white people applied in general, do u think black people have less chance of being on the show ? Hope this makes sense, Great channel!

Thanks Chris. More great content and the only comprehensive application video I don’t believe any other former Islander could’ve done better, that puts into perspective how difficult it is to get on there. I submitted my application last month, and I feel like I covered most of the stuff you discussed here. Although it’s highly unlikely they’ll be getting in touch with me, when will they start reaching out to applicants?
@ChrisWillx5 жыл бұрын
Likely to be within the next 6 weeks I think. Everything is moving earlier each year now as extra prep time is needed for bigger & bigger seasons. I’m sure you’ll have done good man! And thank you for the props, appreciate it. This was a bastard to film & edit 😂 Give it a share if you have time! 👊

A Question I do have, in regards to the medical, not in the sense of STI’s but just cold sores on lips, it’s very common and most people around the world get cold sores on their lips, if this is the case, would it stop you from getting on the show? Some people get a huge out break as a child and never get them again? Just curious. Thanks

Hi Chris I know that you're really into a lot of mating science now so I'm curious about your thoughts on your statement that: "they usually don't cast anyone over the age of 32." Why do you these types of shows set the upper age limit to 32? Even here in the U.S.A our dating shows like "The Bachelor" also cast people under 35 years old. Do you think this is because our Western culture worships youth? But I was looking at the data and over 60% of the audiences for those type of show are women over 40. Why would women over 40 want to watch a romantic show about young people? Why not want a show with people their own age?

Your videos are well shot and decent quality, but I have to say, I have no idea what to make of your channel. I looked at your uploads and the topics really are all over the place, what is your channel about? Is this a lifestyle blog channel, a political channel, an interview channel, a reality TV industry channel? Please don't take this as me shitting on your content, as I said, it's well made and professional. I just genuinely have no Idea what I'd be subbing to.

A fair question, thanks for getting in touch. In essence it’s a repository for “shit I wish I’d known 10 years ago”. I have an eclectic mix of interests and they’re on display here I suppose? I’d run this podcast even if nobody listened, if people connect with it then great, but there’s no agenda to the content beyond things which interest me.

Then they will be thrilled to tell the story about your first time on the show and hope it'll happen.

Speaking as a scientist ( cos it’s Science!!! ) I might observe, from the pre car steeling escapade, guy is acting in a way that could be correlated with the type of characteristics often associated with Bi-Polar disorder. The palpable contrast in the before and after pics of the perp could act to strengthen this hypothesis. In the post sentencing photo he looks v depressed - who wouldn’t - and that alone is meaningless. However when contrasted together the before and after images of the guy are so extremely different one might say he committed this totally mad scheme during a manic phase - the sheer incoherence of the plan being complex and grandiose is another sign of hypomania. Wonder if this dude’s defense request a case review on the grounds of diminished responsibility due to being of unsound mind? Anyway, what do you think. P de H x
