Recap #64 – Wednesday 18th April – The Final Challenge For The Series?

Before the challenge the contestants are told to pack their bags and Munnalita says they’re not sure if that means this is the last chance to be in the final or not.
The challenge for today is on Palm Beach. Marty says they crested a small sand dune to see a bunch of red and blue flags set up on the beach and a treadmill, Chris says he was looking around at all sorts of things like the lighthouse and sand dunes and trying to work out what they were going to have to do.

What are they going to have to do this time? Read on to find out…

Recap #63 – Tuesday 17th April – Train The Trainers Day Comes At Last!

The fatties wander into the gym to the weigh-in room TVs having been set up – one is displaying “Train the Trainers” and the other has this rhyme:
“Today the tables will be turned,
to find out just how much you’ve learnt,
for all the training you’ve survived,
train the trainers has arrived.”

Kind of lame and learnt should have been learned for the proper rhyme, but nevertheless, they’re all excited!

What terrible training will the lovely Shannan and Michelle be forced to endure? Read on!

The Biggest Loser Needs YOU!

With thanks to reader Scarlett for pointing this out, the official site is currently soliciting opinions on the show via a survey – click here to take it!

There are a lot of questions in the survey, as it covers a very large number of topics, from what your favourite and least favourite parts of the show are, to what sorts of things you’d like to see added to the show, or just more of each week.

Of particular note are the many questions which reference such “crowd favourites” as The Walk and the Instant Eliminations. This may be our only chance to have our voices actually be heard en masse about the appalling way this season has been run so please, take the time to fill out the survey. It’ll take you 5-10 minutes but if it results in a much better third season, isn’t that worth 10 minutes of your time? :-)

As always, feel free to discuss any questions that caught your eye in particular or points on which you’d just like to share your opinion.

Recap #61 – Sunday 15th April – Double weigh-in, 4 people going to be sent home, could it be any more dramatic?

Qualifying weigh-ins for the whiteshirts tonight, for the chance at gaining a blackshirt.

Should be pretty dramatic. Want to know who wins the black? Want to know which of the blackshirts will then be facing elimination? Yes, that’s right, double weigh-in tonight, woohoo!
