TBL Australia 4×26: Nathan and Andrew choose who will go… hint: it’s not them.
Previously on The Biggest Loser Nathan and Andrew beat the odds and won the weigh-in.
Now they have the single vote that can eliminate someone from the game. Will they surprise us all by eliminating someone other than Ben and Sean?
I certainly wouldn’t be putting my money on anyone else going home!
Nathan’s stoked about winning. Andrew just wants to sit down and take the weight off his knee. Poor bugger!
Andrew says they had pretty good odds, 2 versus 12!
Pros and cons for everyone being eliminated, they think.
Everyone else is in the lounge room and they congratulate Sean on getting the Biggest Loser title.
Some people try and say that a couple of couples are under the gun. But Ben’s having none of it and says they’re not blind, they know they’re a big threat.
Ben and Sean have a chat to Nathan and Andrew. Ben says you could be the biggest loser and get voted out!
Tough, says Nathan!
Ben and Sean plant the idea in their head that it’s in their interests to keep them in the game to keep that competitive spirit around.
Bob and Tiffany go to plead their case, trying to point to their smaller numbers this week. Andrew says he likes the plateau. “It’s a 6 kilo plateau!” *strokes chin* Funny mannnn.
Bob and Tiffany voted out Nathan and Andrew, or put them up for the 1 v 6 thing at any rate. So they’re worried that the brothers may want revenge.
Nathan and Andrew are still having trouble working out who to vote for. “No one’s safe.”
Ben and Sean then wander into the trophy room so Sean can put his name on the honour board. On a piece of paper with blu-tac on the back.
Ben says that Sean is living proof that you don’t need a long neck to be a goose!
All the couples file into the elimination room. Andrew and Nathan both get chairs, the rest all only get one chair each. Rude!
Ajay recaps how it came to this for us. Thanks, Ajay!
Sean’s asked first about how he’d feel if he has to go home. And he says it’d be devastating and he feels very vulnerable.
Ben says they’re one of the biggest threats in the game, but he hopes they’re not going home tonight.
Bob’s worried, too. Having lost the most weight of anyone there, he’s feeling vulnerable. He was surprised he and Tiffany didn’t get any votes last week.
Meaghan already regrets voting for Nathan and Andrew. “They’re two great guys.” She says she’s almost happy the brothers won. Ben looks unimpressed by that!
Ajay then reminds Cameron, yet again, that his wife has threatened to leave his tubby ass. Cameron says his wife is one of the smartest people in the world and she knows he’s trying. So long as there’s negatives on the weight loss and positive on the attitude she’ll let him hang around a bit longer!
Nathan looks quite distraught at that bit.
Nathan says Cameron’s turned a corner and it’s good to see.
Meaghan is complimented for being the “alpha female” due to her strength, plus she has the Nothing bracelet.
Ben and Sean are competing for the alpha male spot. Sean in particular is very strong.
Holly and Mel are good friends and team mates, but it’s not about that tonight.
Bob’s a big threat with his losses and Tiffany has the Double bracelet.
Nathan and Andrew, it’s time to reveal your vote… right after this commercial break!
Annnnnd after the break Andrew says they’re all threats, even if they don’t think they are themselves.
But their decision is, of course, Ben and Sean!
They’ve been great competitors and even better friends and they’re true gentlemen. It’s been a pleasure spending time with them, Andrew says.
Sean says it’s really hard to leave because they’re pretty much family at this stage. His real family is waiting for him at home but still.
Nathan says they were in the exact same place last week so they know how they feel. You don’t have to be happy about it!
Sean feels it’s a privilege to be voted out for being a threat.
Sean’s Dad used to call him Fat Bastard, as does his friend. But now he’s getting close to dead sexy. He’s hoping to give Shannan a run for his money. Good luck with that!
Ben used to be severely overweight, unhealthy and doubted himself a lot. The challenge from the start has changed his way of thinking. A barrier in front of you can be gone around, gone over or gone through!
Ajay wishes them well but they’re not The Biggest Losers. So get out!
Hugs all round, awwww! Meaghan also wishes Ben a happy birthday. Some present!
“Alphas!” “Betas!” *fistbump* Ben says that they’re the Alphas this week, Nathan and Andrew are the betas! They got beat for once!
The Yellow Line’s going to be back next week, Ajay tells us. So you better watch out, y’hear?
Ben and Sean arrive home together. To some kind of Bogan set of flats. Lots of people there to greet them both!
2 months on… Sean’s looking great jogging down the road. He’s doing a bunch of boxing and other training. Ben’s going to baseball training at least twice a week.
Sean’s actually looking pretty skinny, especially compared to his audition tape.
Ben’s looking pretty good as well though he’s still a bit tubby.
Since appearing on the show Ben and Sean have lost 34kg and 30.7kg. Very impressive!
Tomorrow night it’s a harsh dose of reality as the couples find out their “true biological age”. Hint: it’s older than their chronological one!
Later this week, Temptation has immunity on offer again and the Temptation looks to be milkshakes!
And then on The Walk, which eliminated couple will be returning to the game? Hopefully not Jeda and Jodi but I guess you’ll have to watch to find out!
And at the weigh-in someone’s going to drop a bombshell that nobody will have seen coming. Presumably they’d’ve got out of the way if they had. It’s something about somebody wanting to go home and they try to give us the impression it’s Mel. So expect it to be anyone but her!
