Go on then, going to be any good? Is it a pretence too far?

It will be annoying but I have to watch it. I like seeing the contestants slowly starve, and wonder if I could manage it myslelf. (Just tucking in to a chicken kiev here...)

I quite enjoyed that episode.

Things I don't like: their scabby camp. They're all laying about and sleeping in sandy stty clothes with still no (as far as I can see) bed. WTF. What happened to the beds or have I missed that bit. Clean up the area make some decent beds off the ground, with fronds on top for comfort.

The first net they lost duh. Why would you even allow that to be possible surely you'd tether it properly.

Anyway, on the subject of nets and fish which I know nothing about - why is the net not catching fish? They were obviously lucky with one shark. Is it the location? Should it be curved in some way or made a V shape? I'm thinking by tethering in some way to make it a shape.

I am jealous of their diet - us porkers on easy street could do with losing a few pounds and it looks like the starvation diet works! IMO without gayness all the blokes look quite good now - more like us humans are meant to be.

To be fair editing it all from their cameras must be pretty difficult. You'd be trying to stick it together after the event, when you yourself weren't actually there.

By the way, I want to go on the 'Island' diet - all the blokes look in great shape now, like humans are supposed to look. Apart from prison bloke - how can he retain his weight?
