Who needs to go outside when you have the villa boys to turn up the heat! Well, except for Peaky Blinder’s extra Aidan who might just need a bit of WD 40…
Don’t worry, Shakira, Toni and Yas are here to award the real MVP of the Heart Rate Challenge and to discuss all the fallout. Will Priya ever pop off at Samraj, is Kavan starting to second guess his connection with Jasmine and just who will our Top Boy and Top Girl send packing from the villa? All we know for sure is that it’s shaping up to be a very juicy week in the villa.

| 0:51.5 | Hey! |
| 0:53.1 | Welcome back to the debrief and we're in for another steamy episode with the boys pulling out all the stops in the heart rate challenge. |
| 1:00.0 | I'm Shakira, I'm Tony and I'm Yaz and guys Simba was showing off his best yoga cat cow movements. |
| 1:07.0 | I could not stop laughing. I'm a horrible person. |
| 1:27.7 | It was the humping for me. There was a lot of stiffness going on in that challenge. Aiden. Even Cav said pull out the WD40. Cab was my favourite. He was my favourite. Yeah, he did do really well. Sean did a really good too, even though he's in my bad books. Sean did a really good job. That move on Lola. Yeah. real. The true MVP of the Heartwork Challenge was Ellie though. She was my winner. She was so good and she was hyping everyone up even when the boys were doing theirs. What a good sport. I'm not sure who Tabi thought he was during that challenge and it got him in some trouble. He thought he was like magic mic or something and it just didn't work. Okay, let's start with some of the results. Who was expected? Lola's heart rate was raised by Sean, but Sean's heart rate was raised by Jasmine. She said herself, she didn't even do that much to him. She's just sexy as fuck. Yeah, that's what it is. No, but I think Lola, you could see in her face, she was bothered, but she weren't going to bring it up because I don't think she wanted to like show her insecurity there. But I mean, buy so we like. But Sean said it himself. He was like, no way, like that's not true, you know. It's hard to argue about the heart rate challenge because it's literally out of your control. |
| 2:17.8 | What are you going to do? |
| 2:19.1 | Like, I don't think Fitsy likes Jasmine by any means. |
| 2:23.2 | And then our Queen Angelista. |
| 2:26.7 | I'm really happy for her because if Simba's heart rate was raised by anybody else, |
| 2:31.3 | I think that man would have been taken out of the island by Angelica at that point. I thought he was going to be in trouble after Mika was busing it down on him. I was like, Bayesian baddie. Yeah, so I'm glad like he pulled through. Am I happy he's out of the dog house? No, but I'm happy for Angelista. She's not got anyone in there, are she? You know, like, they're trying. |
| 2:51.8 | Like, you can really see it between those two. He's really trying to make an effort. He's investing in her, giving her time, energy, all this stuff. So, like, I'm happy for those two. I don't know. I just think it's fake. Do you actually? I think a certain other villa comes along. I don't know |
