Below Deck #5 ⚓️

[jenmarks]

João has had a great character arc! He started off as a complete tool, and now he's the golden boy.

 

[whatisawhat]

Thought Ellie had slightly redeemed herself after calling out Alesia but no.
Why does she think she would stand ahead of the second stew, & also not have to take direction from another head of department?
I understand why Ben isn’t wanting confrontation with her but I wish they would all be more direct sometimes.
Ellie you’re a kitchen hand, pipe down.
Mike you’re useless & your hair is ridiculous.
Alesia you’re a silly wee tert

 

[raindropsroses]

Ben is so clearly a sexist, classist snob and it's honestly embarrassing. Acting like a stroppy teenager when he's nearly 50.

Jenna's behaviour was poor, but she was a drunk 22 year old. The way Ben speaks to and about people is awful, allowing and encouraging his galley hand to bitch about Daisy.

 

[raindropsroses]

Ellie, oh god. I was just starting to like her again after the train wreck that was her last season. I do think that her points (not liking being called pet names, being left to do all the cleaning while Ben goes off for a bubble bath) are valid, but her crash out was far too much. It’s not okay to be shouting and swearing at someone and accusing them of abuse. I’m glad Daisy was willing and able to step in.

Mike is shit at his job and a crap team player. Alesia’s not great either, but at least she seems to be doing her job now. Right now, Betul is by far my favourite, but she’ll not get invited back because she’s drama free.

 

[jackssack]

If you'd told me at the beginning of the season that Alesia isn't the worst person on there, I wouldn't have believed you.
Then along came Ellie and Jenna.
Eddie is just milking the situation.
Ellie is a an absolute headcase.
Jenna, I mean wtf was that behaviour?

I can't help but like Ben and I don't know why.

I’m so glad that Nathan tells Sandy about the gross sheets

at first when Joe told him Nathan was making a joke about it and I thought he’d be weirdly ok with it . I think perhaps if Luke had used that opportunity to apologise things wouldn’t have escalated . But he was smirking and made it worse !

Luke and Gen should both be gone, there's no excuse. Yes it's the boys room, but she was in there and could've stripped the sheets and taken them off to laundry with her shitty attitude.
She also kept it from Nathan, so they're both as guilty as each other.

 

[Cosytidy]

I really can’t watch a whole season of Nathan & Joe’s dick swinging contest 🥱

 

[Restless Native]

Kizzy and the charter guest seems staged

 

[Restless Native]

So did Sandy just think Luke went for a chug in Nathans bed alone? Cos surely Gen should have been punished too

 

[SophSpinsSillyStories]

I saw motor yacht St David today - it’s like a proper celeb spotting! Didn’t see Fraser or Kerry, the boat was celeb enough itself!

 

[Offish]

She makes my skin crawl. One of those girls who isn’t just not a girls girl but literally an anti-girls girl. She sees any and all other women as direct competitors and it’s gross. Can’t believe some dopey cunt has actually asked her to marry him, especially if it’s the same Tom as she ditched on the show so as to spread her legs wings unencumbered!

 

[DoseofReality]

Lara saying goodbye to Jason was clearly expecting him to declare his undying love and vowing to never work with another chief stew again. He was probably just thinking 'I miss Aesha'.

 

[cowtastrophe]

Ellie is actually nuts!

I don’t blame Daisy for not wanting to cabin with her any more. She was probably afraid she’d wake up to find Ellie staring at her while stroking a knife.

 

[Restless Native]

Alesias such a pick me

 

[KerGlr5]

I died when V stood on Jizzy’s foot

 

[Louanne]

Not a fan of Mike at all, but am glad his gossiping exposed Alesia for who she really is. Her attitude absolutely stinks.

I didn't mind her too much last year despite the fact that she was a bit whiny, but this year? I'd cheerfully push her overboard.

 

[cshellscshellsonthecshore]

I dislike Gen more and more with every episode.

I can’t work out if she’s behaving the way she is because she knows how to make air time on reality tv, or she’s a fucking fruitloop. My gut is saying the latter

 

[Louanne]

Not BDDU bringing back fucking Ellie. I cannot stand her.
And, as for Captain Jason - should've told Alésia if she didn't want to be Sous she's off the boat.

 

[JuneJuneHannah]

Nathan making a right dick of himself. Both terrorists were legal in Australia. Ironic that Nathan is also now an immigrant in Australia although that is probably OK because he's white and therefore must be a good guy....

The guy that tackled the gunman however was an immigrant.

Great that he helped people but doesn't really excuse him.

He doubled down on this with a video on his stories too so can't even excuse himself for being stressed and angry.

 

[Lalala12]

I love Aesha and Nathan calling that vile pair out on their BS. V has so much more class.
