@carlwilson6235 Жыл бұрын

One thing I only picked up on by reading Reddit after the show: on the one hand, Fern took credit for the "endless plates" system, while if you watch, it was very clearly Dara's invention; on the other hand, Fern blamed either her or John for losing the feather, but it was pretty clearly Dara who lost it. So that balances out.

5 barred gate is the tally marks we usually use. 4 straight vertical lines, 1 diagonal line across the 4 to make 5. The other weapon was a high heeled shoe, which might be very effective with the balloons. I still think I would have chosen the frying pan, without knowing what the actual task was going to be. I think the conventional thinking is that a frying pan is a heavy and effective weapon

My understanding was you had to use every blower once and every ball once so using the harder combos later i think is the safe move as by that point hopefully most of the competition would have been knocked out by overdoing it on easier combos in early rounds

the secret to the blow game is to deform the ball... failing that forget the ping pong ball cos it is never going to stay on.

Regarding the prize tasks. I know on Twitter, Fern has frequently been saying that her offering is usually the second or third thing she thinks of because the first ideas get shut down (by the producers?/legal team?) So I guess it's understandable that you phone it in if your ideas keeps getting rejected? I feel like it's getting much harder to come up with new prize task categories. Perhaps they should reuse some of the early ones? Or even shake up the format and start with something else?

@travelwell6049 Жыл бұрын

The individual tasks are filmed with each person separately over a few days and they actually stay in the house. The team tasks are done on one day per team, and that’s after all their individual tasks have been filmed. (Remember Phil Wang didn’t know about his costume being so revealing until the team task). They’re not allowed to talk about their individual tasks with each other. It’s possible Sarah was filmed 4th and Munya 5th out of everyone. So only Munya experienced the smell.

a five bar gate is a style of actual gate, four horizontal pieces of wood with one diagonal from top to bottom, but rotated 90 degrees would resemble a tally mark so I suppose some areas use it as a name for that

I think Dara knowingly used his bellows illegally as there was a wee lift with his push, and Munya knew he was caught as he said 'what you don't know can't hurt ya' for the tape whilst walking away - but I do love the cheating/DQ trope that has grown out of Joe's toe over the red-green. I think a DQ or last place is fair punishment for naughtiness as there are some contestants you want to push the boundaries and see how it plays out on playback, a la Tim Key series 1.

@patricial6740 Жыл бұрын

Other Cluedo options were staple gun and the high heeled shoe. Either of those would have been more effective in balloon popping, but I probably would have picked the fry pan going in blind as well. (But in the shed.) Which made me wonder, would they have cleaned out the shed?

@SquiresIsle Жыл бұрын

I honestly don't know if Munya kicked the ball on purpose. It looks like it was a total accidental contact. But "What you don't know can't hurt you" as he walks away proves that he KNEW he touched it and kept quiet, ergo... DQ.

@oisquidyx Жыл бұрын

Hahaha he clearly meant to do it, it’s pretty much impossible to accidentally kick it with your left leg when it’s on your right leg. Plus, he said ‘release’ when he kicked it. How you think it was an accident is bizarre

I’ve really enjoyed the series so far and hadn’t been disappointed by the lack of lateral thinking opportunities like I constantly was last series. That said, I want people to move the bath to the feather. There have been plenty where the task is just a timed task and you don’t do yourself any favours trying to come up with loopholes. So you probably get used to just getting on with it.

John was a little mugged off in that last one, should have gotten 4 points as normally happens in that situation. Probably won't matter in the long run but still.

@PS-vm3we Жыл бұрын

I for one think it looks like Dara pushed the beach ball on purpose and was surprised he didn't get nil points for that. As for Munya scoring consistently low over the last episodes, he makes great television. It was way more fun to watch Sarah and Munya on the feather task than the other three. Thought the scoring there was unfair. The cast is great this season, but that is a lot down to Munya and Fern being as they are.

@carlwilson6235 Жыл бұрын

It was so obvious Dara didn't do it on purpose. Also he got disqualified for it in that round, the same way everyone whose balls went off the knappet got disqualified, so seems pretty fair.
