Nine girls are still in the battle to win Spencer’s heart. After a hugely eventful stay in the south of France, the action moves to Tuscany for an episode full of controversy and incident as hackles rise and accusations fly.
Inspired by the rich cultural heritage of their surroundings, the Bachelor’s first date is designed to tap into the girls’ artistic sides – Spencer has arranged a session of body casting. One by one, the girls must select a part of their own body and smother it in plaster to make a cast. The girls throw themselves into it with varying degrees of enthusiasm, and one girl’s relish for the task sets her apart from the others. The Bachelor awards her a rose, guaranteeing her a place in the next stage of the competition. But Spencer has not bargained for what happens next, as the girl claims her chance to cast a very particular part of the Bachelor’s own body…
The following day, the girls face a very different kind of challenge. Spencer has brought two of his friends over to Italy, seeking their support and input as he strives to make the right choice. The girls soon find themselves subjected to an intensive grilling from the Bachelor’s friends.
That night, the Bachelor, his friends and the nine girls all gather in the Great Hall for the traditional masked ball. This colourful Italian ritual is infamous for rumour, jealousy, backstabbing and smouldering sexual tension, and tonight is no exception. Sparks fly as one girl confronts the Bachelor, accusing him of kissing another. Another girl feels that she has failed to make the most of her time with Spencer, and her loud recriminations can be heard throughout the mansion.
The following day, as the dust settles, Spencer invites one girl to escape with him to the cultural capital of the Renaissance – the stunning city of Florence. In a romantic day to remember, the Bachelor and his girl take a horse-drawn tour of the city, stroll through picturesque squares, linger on historic bridges, sip prosecco and end up entwined in each other’s arms. The girl in question declares it to be the best day of her life, and the Bachelor himself appears utterly smitten.
That night at the villa, the tension from the previous evening is still in the air. The situation reaches boiling point at the pre-rose ceremony cocktail party, where two of the girls let fly at one another in a vicious cat-fight over the amount of time one of them is spending with the Bachelor. Finally, in an unforgettable rose ceremony, the girls are shocked by an unexpected turn of events. When the dust settles, two more girls are heading home and seven remain in the hunt for the Bachelor’s heart.

TABBY TO WIN! Khloe is so manipulative. I think Helen is real but not suitable for Spencer at all- she's too cringey and not as pretty as the other girls.

All I'm saying what man is 23 and looking for a serious relationship?! If he was really looking for love, why kiss all the girls! You are suppose to save it for someone special. Rene and Helen are to good for him. Before Tabby falls to deep she needs to open her eyes and not be naive.

A lot of respect for Rene, I would have done the same....stop before you get hurt! which, even the person who wins will! not worth it. She got out at a good time! Brandy was awesome! He's so silly and he keeps Khloe in? OMG does she need a punch and put in her place! Her personality sucks...shes more concerned about her looks that she's never developed a personality! CRINGE! Tabby and Helen my favs! I hope he chooses one of them as they're the most genuine (although they both could do waaay better-money aside)

I think spencer always tries to get alone with the girls who turn him on and might give him a bit. The slime!!! I was taken in until his friends exposed him.

I think Spencer is a worm and a player and getting paid to get off on the naive unsuspecting females. creep and C5 is creepy.

I think Spencer is so deceitful. He is playing with real people with real feelings and to him he is eatting his having his cake and eatting it but his turn will come. He is acting and I hope someone plays him one day.

Just wondering, is this show being filmed at the moment, or has the filming already finished? And how long are they there for? I could have sworn in the first series they said 5 months... but it doesn't seem like that long when you watch it... PS. I think Tabby is best suited for him, but the winner always ends up being someone you don't expect... Plus, I hope whoever does win actually stays as his girlfriend. You feel that when they leave the show and watch it back they might get upset seeing him on the dates with the other girls and then they might develop a grudge... hopefully not since they prepared themselves for it, but still... PS again. Yes I have no life and live vicariously through mindless tv. Woo!

spencer still looks like a pug to me
Im glad Reney is gone, she didnt fancy him from the start and made him look like a fool with her comment. She is too chavy and airhead for a relationship with somone like Spencer. Khloe is a skitzo barbie cow. Lapdancers are not girlfriend material, they are just blow up sheep dolls . Tabby rocks! Pug and Cat sitting in a tree...

Tabby and Khloe = goofy looking! All teeth. Bet he ends up with Tabby though. When he said to Helen 'my friends think you're fantastic' or whatever it was he said, it was like the subtext was 'but I don't'. Jess strikes me as really sly somehow.

if Renay was so bothered about missing out on her daughter's life, she wouldn't have been there in the first place.

I love Tabby! She's so sweet. She has a right to be worried about how the other girls are going onto Spencer (especially Khloe -_- = miss fake) and they have such a connection. Also, Helen and Aisha are so sweet. I hope he chooses one of them...

Have you noticed he says the same things to all of the girls? He tells them what they want to hear. I wish they'd open there eyes and see it's just game. Totally agree with what his friend told Renay! you go renay!

love tabby and helen :) nicest two girls there and both seem completely genuine! i hope spencer sees khloe's true colours soon....didnt like the way she went after tabby. completely unnecessary and vindictive. I think she may be there for the wrong reasons.
