TBL 7×21 – White get a little sand in their… you know… during the weekly challenge.

Previously on The Biggest Loser Lydia won Immunity at the surprise weigh-in and also received a 24 hour leave pass from Camp, choosing to spend her leave at a swanky hotel in Sydney.

Temptation started and the early indications are that Hamish will win in some kind of chocolatey landslide.

Tonight! We find out if Hamish wins, we find out how many chocolates and calories Hamish ate to win and we get to snort derisively at him going home for a hug from his Mum.
Mish’s team get a night away from Camp to have dinner at a nice restaurant. Presumably for educational purposes.

Also a challenge kicks off on a sandy, miserable beach in Sydney. Contestants will have to dig out a kayak from the sand. And both White and Blue are going to find it tough and dramatic shouting and angst shall ensue.

As the episode picks up we’re still watching Hamish plow through his box of chocolates while everyone around him seems to not be eating any at all.

But now the time has finished. Take off your blindfolds and we’ll reveal who participated.
Seems it was just one person who took part. Hamish managed to put away 988 calories worth of chocolate. Everyone is flabbergasted.

Hamish looks like a naughty little boy, Hayley says. Did he think anyone else was playing? No, he didn’t.

YOU WHAT?! How stupid are you?

Previously on The Biggest Loser… Three Immunities, One Week! It’s Immunity Week at Camp Biggest Loser.

TBL 7×19 – How many bricks could a fat chick shift if a fat chick could shift bricks?

Previously on The Biggest Loser Ryan put himself forward for Elimination and was of course sent home because he’s the biggest in the game and the laziest and less liked than Graham!

Tonight! Lots more training and another Contest kicks off. The prize is a 24 hour leave pass from Camp but to get it they need to be the fastest to move a tonne of bricks.

For those unfamiliar with the weight of a tonne of bricks it’s a bit more than 4 Ryans at the start of the show.

The competition is back to four teams again this week. And if they play their cards right they might have an easier path to the next week. But Hayley’s not going to reveal what she means by that just yet…

Blue and Black are waiting in Loser Lounge for the contestants to come back.
Margie says Ryan told them he’d put himself up because he hadn’t been doing the work and Luke had. Luke knows that it didn’t matter which of them went up, they’d be gone. Nobody was going to vote for Graham because he’s loveable. Awww!

TBL 7×18 – Sand dune of doom leads to an extra large elimination.

Previously on The Biggest Loser Hamish and Michelle sitting in a cabin, k-i-s-s-i-n-g. What does that spell? Uncomfortably discussing their feelings!

The yearly sand dune of doom challenge kicked off. It’s still Boys vs Girls and everyone on each team must make at least one trip.

When we left on Thursday night Ryan was making his one trip up the hill. He was barely halfway up and didn’t look like making it much further…

Tonight… He’s still going! As is Selena, though she’s ahead and manages to get to the top and flip her number over.

Ryan’s still crawling up the hill. He’s sinking into the sand all the time but he keeps telling himself to never quit and Steve and Shannan are walking beside him and urging him on. The rest of the team sees him as the weak link and he can’t let that continue.
Finally, Ryan reaches the top and struggles to his feet to flip the counter over.
Then he pretty much flails his way down the hill, arms flapping out to either side as he walks down the hill. Then he falls over. Shannan gets him back on his feet pretty quickly and tells him to fight the urge to fall over, push down the hill, fight to stay up.

TBL 7×17 – Footloose and Fancy Free Friday. Fnord.

Previously on The Biggest Loser… oh, right, this is a Friday episode!

Tonight we see Shannan blow a gasket during training, some more loveydovey stuff with Michelle and Hamish (oooooh!) and we get a special catchup with Brenda, one month after leaving Camp.

But first, Hayley casually sitting on a high director’s style chair introducing the show. Drama, biggest stories, blowups, emotion and a contestant makeover. Loser like you’ve never seen before, Hayley promises.

To be honest that all sounds exactly like what we get every single episode and this will just be some extra bits they couldn’t squeeze in at the appropriate time.

Before we get to any of the new stuff let’s have a MONTAGE! Show lots of things, happening at once, etc etc. It’s basically a quick recap of the week’s events. You’ve either been watching, reading recaps or don’t really care that much anyway. So let’s get on to the new stuff?

I’m not recapping the recap footage, by the way. If you really want to read about it, go back and read about it. Gosh!
