They aren't as interesting as last years. They seem to just sit around talking

Why did Adele(?) take that photo in I'd be annoyed if my luxury item fell in the swamp but she gets a non useful luxury item. I'd have to take a pillow I think

Think Caitlyn could win the only arguments that could go against her are the extortionate fees the amount of coverage they are giving her talking about the Kardashians (who's show I've never watched nor have I had any desire to do so.) She has surprised me I thought she would be a bit of a drama queen but she just gets in there and does great.

Thought the girl who did the spiders did well thought she would bail

Too many people of similar work roles eg mostly radio or TV thought it was usually a bit more mixed

Think this might have run its course as a show, don't see myself watching much if any of it this year. Nothing to do with the contestants really, just seems a bit tired at this stage.

I think she took it in to look a bit "quirky" somehow thinking she's mad cos it's random and it gets a reaction. Then one of them questioned it not even offensively and she sees her arse!!

The contestants are pretty shit really. I think the format is a bit tired to though it's same act every year and they seem to play a character. You get one who's "never seen any of the show" or there's someone who's terrified of something and miraculously overcomes their fear such as the spiders tonight. The reality being it's probably all an act and she's not that arsed about spiders.


I don't know how they change it up but it is very samey, the presenters have been the best part of it for most the last few years.

They need some new stuff. It's very samey. Surely they can come up with some new trials that aren't just having a box of spiders on your head, or being in a box of spiders.

Maybe a spider full of boxes?

Ah thanks for that I wasn't paying it the most attention last year's with Harry Redknapp was really good but this year it's been more on in the background

Agree they need to mix it up a bit/ do new trials, the one tonight has been done multiple times. Maybe members of the general public or give them more little challenges to do in camp that earn them points they can convert for bits and pieces say earn x points and you get to choose one of the people's luxury items that was lost. Agree it's the same type of people (add to your list one always excluded from the trials on medical grounds) last year was interesting because Anne refused to do the trials its almost better if you have one that's always voted and it rubbish (think Gillian Mckeith)

If I don't get to see Caitlyn wrestle an alligator it's not been ramped up enough.

Also:
Lizard discus.

I'm a Celeb x Takeshi's Castle special.

I agree. It’s been pretty boring thus far compared to last year.

Officially the best poker player on RAWK.
Not a great lineup this year, Roman Kemp the most likely to win based on what I've seen so far
I think that eastenders girl.

That rugby dickhead already talks over her way too much and parrots her. I think the public will pity her but love when she gets through the tasks.

Roman at least seems like a famous kid raised right though. He seems to legit know where he comes from and is self aware. I like him.

She already looks and is acting unhinged. You really think they'd do that?


...oh, wait...
Really not sure where you're going with this. :lol: Should I be worried? :confused:

In truth I've missed most of the last two episodes. Watched Wales-Hungary instead on Tuesday and had a bit on last night so I've probably missed a wee bit of context since the picture was put up.

Haskell seems like a nice bloke that's struggling to not come across as a bit of a dick. Accidentally talking over people and making jokes that seem more like digs etc.

Also like Roman. Seems a nice fella.

Anyone else starting to think Jacqueline is putting it on a bit she always moans about the trials and acts really scared but then goes in and does great the squealing when stuff was dropped on her yesterday was starting to annoy me as all the others were stood there fine and she was squealing every time they weren't even "bad" things

Also I usually like Ant and Dec but they are grating a little this year

I'd hate Ian's part of this going under the water etc

Ian Wright "WHAT the hell is that?!" :lol:
The best people are those that absolutely hate it but still do it.

Reckon I'd be fine with all this except the spiders again. I'd just say feck it and skip that room.

Some sad cases on the FB page are wanting to start a campaign or petition to get the last 3 their roast dinner and are threatening to stop watching it if they dont get them as feel the last trial was unfair!

I think the time was a bit too tight but start in the easier boxes

Also id have put the 4 doing the all day challenge at the top of the list to get 1 as they are running round the jungle most of the day so surely have earnt a roast the most- believe they knew when arranging the names the 4 who had to go to the mission

Andrew seems a bit insecure and overly emotional. I'd have been annoyed too if I was Ian Wright, because he tried to make him look and feel bad in front of everyone there and the world watching.

It's right though. He keeps causing arguments making out he's being treated unfairly.
I only saw a small youtube clip but the hug at the end was annoying. Ian clearly just wanted to be left alone.

I hate when people do the whole force lets make up stuff.

The whole thinking a bit of chocolate is amazing like they've been away from it for 4 months cracks me up. They've been eating loads sugary shit (albeit small portions), meat, and just had a massive roast dinner. They've eaten more sweets and chocolate in a week than I do in two months.
