I think Ivo might be fun. I'd like to see him do a team task with Frankie.

Also, does anyone know why the series with the lovely Morgana never seems to be shown as a repeat?
The repeats shown on TV across Dave and C4 (E4Extra) seem to be shown in chronological order with E4 Extra currently being on the back end of season 6 (Tim Vine, Alive Levine etc) and I think Dave are back to series 1 and will never show the Morgana episodes as C4 hold all the rights to those.

Best place to watch them is All4 as they have the lot on demand. That series with Morgana has one of the funniest moments I've ever seen in TM with Alan Davis and the wow monster rofl

For a best bits to exclude 'Santa's face' and 'bee's dick' is a disgrace!

If you like Morgana check out the episode of Off Menu she did with Ed and James. It's a podcast and not available on YT so you'll have to have Spotify or something but it's def worth a listen, she's hilarious and an absolute gem!

I liked her as the beekeeper (sp) in Toast.

Frankie went off the boil about 10 years ago and just went a bit odd, lost what made him so unique and went down a weird route of being all self righteous which was the complete opposite of what he was. Being a funny stand up and a comedian doesn't necessarily translate to being funny in TM too so he could go either way. I hope he turns up and is funny AF but he's far from being a dead cert like the likes of Bob Mortimer was, as you say I think the studio will be his forte.
I think the opposite - Frankie went from pretty funny to great about 10 years ago. Some of his rambling, surreal, monologues on his chat show were great.

Quiet in here!

Kiell taking the lead for my favourite contestant of the new series.

As someone who cannot stand Jenny, I think there may be a lot of teeth grinding over the next 9 weeks…

Just watched on catchup. I'd have brought in a 1kg weight for the prize task. It's got 1 job, to weigh 1kg, and it says that on it.

String task, break them early with sneaky stuff.

Wedding task, Kiell Smith-Bynoe all the way. Also, Alex can't do the worm.

Barge task, they probably did break the boat hehe . Reddit AMA said they had 2 of everything incase one got broken, and would get a third after the first breakage. From what Jenny said explaining to Ivo, they didn't have 2 barges hehe .

Early prediction that it's between Kiell Smith-Bynoe and Mae Martin for the series win. It looks like they have the right sort of thinking to do well.

Steady start, they tend to be though, especially in the studio.

Kiell is def my fave so far, Ivo is exactly as I expected him to be, Jenny didn't irritate me, Mae was quiet but competent and Frankie got my first actual laugh.

The barge task was a weird one, did anyone else get the impression they'd filmed that all on the same day what with Jenny's comment?

Yeah they have a filming day somewhere away from the house, like the empty Gatwick airport terminal in the last series.
