Introducing Lucie’s Catchphrase “Bev”
We saw Lucie trying to introduce her catchphrase “bev”, she revealed that in this villa everyone would be hearing some new and weird words.

Now, the last contestant to arrive in the villa was Welsh who is an aircraft engineer. The moment he arrived Amber stepped forward straight away despite being coupled up with Sherif. She loved the way Welsh greeted the host Caroline with a kiss on the cheek.
Now, in return, Callum picked Amber which meant Sherif was also benched for the first episode. On the other hand, Anna was holding off on stepping forward for every male contestant who was coming on the show.
