As the series draws to a close, my little heart breaks and I am left in a tears of sadness, joy and downright exhaustion. Now to either catch up on previous episodes or find things to do with my life other than lying in bed swooning over Proudlock... The ultimate dilemma.
I have put together a little check list of five things that series 5 of MIC has taught me below. It was a serious decision making process.
5) The producers are still trying oh so hard to make Fran and Olivia happen
Every time they come on the screen I do a little snore, and in collaboration with Pheobe they actually create Chelsea's answer to Mean Girls... Wait, which one's which again?
4) They all have ridiculous nicknames, don't they really?
Binky was a cute nickname, let's face it. But I draw the line at Spenny. There is no way that I'm jumping on the Jamie Laing bangwagon of calling Proudlock 'Pruders'. NEXT.
3) Ollie Locke is still a comedy genius
No awkward situation is an awkward situation without Ollie Locke and his awkward faces. That is all.
2) Louise is a bit of a tit
She seems to have evolved from "pushover Louise making feminists everywhere roll over in their grave" to "Louise who cheats on Andy Nostrils Jordan with NIALL FROM 1D" I can't entirely blame her since Niall just so happens to be fancied by the entire female (and probably male) population, but... Is she just permanently stupid?
1) Producers have given up pretending every scene isn't a set up
A lot has happened since the days of being convinced by the whole 'oh we just so happen to be in the same place at the same time, how funny' illusion. Those days are history.
Nowadays Ashley whines"He told me he was straight" after organising Ollie's DVD collection in alphabetical order (who does that?!) and finding gay porn. Which of course was BAFFLING for her.
Apparently Ashley doesn't have a TV since he came out bisexual on NATIONAL TELEVISION last year.
But then again, the couple must have been having a technological crisis together. In the wise words of Harry Styles, "Who still keeps that sort of thing on DVD?!"
Thanks for the conclusion Harry, you pervy little tech savvy.
Now crack open the champers, practice your best Chelsea accent ("yah yah" is a personal favourite) and book yourself an overpriced hotel or something because the After Party is on tonight at 10pm on E4!
Am I a TV presenter yet?
What did MIC teach you this series?
