Love Island viewers in hysterics over contestants not knowing ‘big words’ or even who Hugh Jackman is-Meghna Amin-Entertainment – Metro

Love Island viewers have been left in hysterics over the girls’ confusion about a ‘big word’: ‘territorial’, and one of the boys being completely oblivious to who Hugh Jackman is.

The reality dating series has given us plenty of moments like these, many of which came from 2018 contestant Hayley Hughes.

From struggling for days over how to pronounce Eyal Booker’s name (even though she was coupled up with him at the time) to not knowing what an earlobe is, confusion over whether Liverpool is a country, what ‘superficial’ means, and Brexit giving us fewer trees (which was later proved to be true), the model certainly had her moments.

And now, we’ve had one of our first from this series of Love Island, when Jess Harding nor Molly Marsh knew what ‘territorial’ meant.

Bombshell Whitney Adebayo tried to explain what it meant… by using the exact word.

‘The girls are territorial,’ Whitney began.

Jess replied: ‘What does that mean? I’m not good with big words.’

‘Me neither,’ Molly agreed.

Whitney went on to explain, or try to: ‘Um… I would say Ella [Thomas] for example is very territorial over Tyrique [Hyde].’

‘Big words? Territorial? Oof, the British school system…’ one viewer wrote.

Another penned: ‘LMAOOOOO i’m not good with big words had killed me !!!!’

Someone else wrote: ‘Why are these villa people surprised by big words.’

‘So it makes you want to think, hm, you don’t want to get in that, because it’s long.’

Later in the episode, viewers were once again impressed by an islander not having a clue.

This time, Mitchel Taylor was left baffled when someone compared the new bombshell to Hugh Jackman.

‘Who the f**k’s that?’ he asked.

Wolverine fans weren’t happy, with one writing: ‘What do you mean “Who’s Hugh Jackman???”‘

‘Mitchel did NOT just ask who Hugh Jackman is,’ another wrote.

‘Voting off Mitchel because he doesn’t know who Hugh Jackman is,’ someone else said.

Love Island continues tomorrow night at 9pm on ITV2.
