Channel 4’s The Circle got very interesting on Tuesday night (October 2), as another catfish was exposed – and it was all due to their sexting skills.
As the show continued its apparent transformation into Love Island, things heated up between Dan and Mairead and Scotty and newbie Precious.
But in a twist, two of the contestants’ flirting techniques brought them under suspicion and even led to one of them getting blocked.
Let’s start with Scotty and Precious, who were ‘set up’ on a private chat by Freddie.
The two have both expressed an interest in each other and when left alone, things got very flirty pretty quickly.
But after a lot of ‘what are you wearing?’ talk, Precious signed off the chat by calling Scotty ‘bro’, causing alarm bells for the cabbie.
And just like that, Scotty was left wondering if he’d been chatting to a man the whole time (he hadn’t).
Then there’s poor Dan, who IS actually talking to a man when he chats with bestie Kate.
But while his interactions with Kate have been kept purely platonic, his chats with Mairead have been getting naughtier and naughtier.
But unbeknownst to Dan, Mairead is not a thirty-something divorcee – instead, she’s actually in her 50s.
While the two have been flirting for the past few days, on Tuesday night Mairead took it to a whole new level with her ‘sexting’, leaving viewers cringing.
And her dirty talk didn’t help things with Dan either, as he took her forwardness as a major red flag and began to question if she really was who she says she is.
Then it came time to block another member, and once again Dan was made an influencer along with Sian.
While discussing who should get the boot, Sian mentioned that she thought Mairead was trying too hard to get close to him just to stay in the game.
With Sian confirming his suspicions that Mairead wasn’t 100% genuine, Dan agreed she was the one to block.
But in another epic cliffhanger, Mairead went to visit Dan after being blocked so he could see who he’d been flirting with all that time.
We only got to see Dan’s reaction as Mairead walked in, but it’s safe to say he wasn’t expecting that.
The Circle continues tonight (October 3) at 10pm on Channel 4.
