(un)surprising to hear of the pay difference between Amir Khan and Georgia Toff for their appearance on the show.

He's getting paid £300,000 (the most ever paid to a Celeb to appear on the show)

She's getting paid £13,000

But then, if she wins, as she is predicted to do, she could well end up earning several million for what she could endorse, coming from her position as a relative unknown whilst he was far more well known and earning a lot more.

Added to which, she seems a genuinely nice person, as opposed to.........

Very much so, it’ll be interesting to see if she breaks out of Chelsea in TV / Ad career merit rather than family money or by marrying further fame.

Jamie and Amir doing geography ! I've no idea how they managed to finish the task. Australia is apparently in Alaska, and Tokyo the capital of China.

Amir has been a thick all the way through this, but I was genuinely shocked to see Jamie unable to correct him.

As Ant said - idiots.

That Scottish labour mp turned out to be a total waste of time.

I thought toff would have got on my wick but shes very likeable. Lovely girl.

Definite mood change in the camp tonight, mainly due the three amigos coming out with the old 'playing a game' cliché.

Iain seems a genuine guy, Amir is as thick as st and a liar, and after initially coming across as a nice chap - Dennis Wise has reverted to type. What an asshole.

Toff ftw, Iain second, Jenny third.

Amir is such a plum!

Jamie seemed better in the early stages but has been easily led by not so Wise and Amir.

Stanley was good entertainment and harmless enough, would have liked him to stay and do a trial as he seemed to genuinely enjoy being there.

Toff remains a little ray of sunshine and with Jennie adds some light relief.

Ian is a curious chap. He has traits similar to a friend of mine with psych issues. Not convinced about game playing and does better when encouraged, like most people. He is a bit tall for some of those trials.

I see Iain as a real life Alan Partridge.

I don’t particularly like him, he likes the sound of his own voice, very seventies DJ.

But Dennis really let himself down, proper little, nowty, school bully type with his gang. Says an issues over then wouldn’t shut up about it.

Iain's been pretty open about his mental health issues in the past - I'm not really sure it was a great idea for him to do this.

I don’t know if this is true, but I heard a friend of his saying on the radio the other day that he was using his appearance fee to pay his Mums nursing home costs.

As an aside, his show on TalkRadio at 10pm is very entertaining

He's clearly on a different intellectual wavelength to the other three, and I think he finds it difficult to communicate with them. He certainly doesn't stick up for himself - I don't think any of the other contestants have realised yet what actually happened in Strawberrygate. I'm not condoning his part, but unless the editing has been really sharp, he certainly wasn't the main culprit. As another poster said earlier, that idiot is a man-child.

(Now I want to see Amir and Jamie as a team on Pointless. Geography questions).

I went to school with Iain and he has exactly the same personality then as now. Bubbly, exuberant, likeable, then insular, quiet, shy. Changing from one day to the next. But one thing I will say is that he's genuine, the real deal. As people have said, he's paying for his mum's care and I hope the fee will make things comfortable for him. I've followed his career on TV, LBC, Talk Radio and others and he's mentioned his mum's deterioration over the past few months and also on his twitter feed.

I felt uncomfortable for him when Dennis was talking out of volunteering for the trial and glad he's gone. I think Iain will be top 3 and increase his media exposure which ultimately will do his career great.

I hope Iain wins to ps off the lads clique, he seems like a genuinely nice guy and I find myself really feeling sorry for him in there.

Also shocked that Stanley went, absolutely loved him and his amazement for anything he was told hehe

My wife tells me that all those bikinis and bras she is regularly seen in, are items she is being paid to promote. Which is fair enough, she's in the news every day wearing them as well as on the TV...

A sign of long term depression...? I hope he does well, seems a nice bloke.

Iain has dealt with the situation pretty well. He seems both genuine and remarkably patient with Dennis, Amir and Jamie.

I've been watching this year as Toff is friends with my daughter. She's so positive and likeable I hope she wins (with Iain second).
