Week 1 2019, with Lucy Vine: "Stop trying to make 'bev' happen Gretchen"

Harriet Minter invites writer Lucy Vine to dissect and over analyse the first week of Love Island 2019.Love Island is back, and if you've been all "I'm not watching it this year" and now are TOTALLY watching it this year - this podcast is for you. A safe space to discuss that "it is what it is" so crack on!And it's cracking on in the villa already, raising some interesting chat.Like: do relationships require "Insta Staus" these days? How long do you have to be dating, before your boyfriend can go bonkers about you politely chatting to someone else? Do nice guys/bad guys ACTUALLY exist, or have we made them up? And has Love Island really addressed the 'diversity issue'? Oh and what the f*** does 'bev' mean?!Lucy Vine is the author of 3 books, including the newly released "Are We Nearly There Yet?", and pleasingly, looks a bit like Molly Mae herself!
