TBL 7×42 – Episode Forty Two falls on a Friday? Freaky.

Friday! That time of the week where we have a half hour show with thirteen to fourteen minutes of advertisements and five to six minutes of footage we saw earlier in the week.

Exciting!

In the actual stuff we haven’t seen, more of Margie at the trapeze session, Kasey and Michelle have a giggle about Alliances and Simon gets his makeover. Will they also show Lisa a picture of him after the makeover? If that’s not going to motivate her…!

During the replayed footage of the tire challenge Hayley calls it a “tiring challenge”. So she totally reads the Recap, right? It’s not just the most obvious pun in the world?

TBL 7×41 – Tire Challenges Are Tiring.

Previously on The Biggest Loser Lisa went on The Walk and claimed Mish all to herself for the rest of the week.

But only has her trainer. :-(

Michelle dominated at Temptation and now has an extra Immunity to give away tonight.
Shannan will catch up with James on the outside to see how he’s travelling since leaving the show.
Then the weekly challenge kicks off. It looks very… TIRING.

Michelle says she could have stopped after two mouthfuls of the V8 Diesel cake, she was so full. But it’s her last cake.
So who’ll she be giving the Immunity to? It’s a tough choice… Kasey!

TBL 7×40 – Mmmmm, fancy patisserie treats.

Previously on The Biggest Loser some contestants faced their fears on the trapeze and others faced them on a rock climbing wall.
Then Lisa went on to dominate at the Contest leading to her second Walk in as many weeks.

Tonight we find out what mischief she gets to inflict on everyone this week. And then later it’s time for Temptation. With more than one Immunity on offer it’s a safe bet there’ll be some sorely tempted contestants this week!

As the trainers file into Loser Lounge they notice Lisa’s missing. Or, as Tiff puts it, they’re missing a munchkin.
Lisa’s off on The Walk, of course. Alex is very nervous. He’s worried he might end up chained to Steve all week!

Lisa says she’s chosen the Mystery option again, when she finally arrives back at Camp. Alex buries his head in the lounge and waits for the bad news.
But no! Not bad news. Choose one contestant to have exclusive access to a trainer until the weigh in.

Lisa has, of course, taken it for herself. And she’s picked Mish as her trainer, of course.

TBL 7×39 – NOODLE CONTEST. Also, manboobs. In mud.

Previously on The Biggest Loser… Simon got eliminated. Awwwwwww.

Tonight the contestants go rock climbing! And acrobatic-ing? Looks like fun.
What doesn’t look fun is Graham’s gruelling workout with Commando Steve out on the muddy paradeground. They’re going to have it out for the umpteenth time tonight. Will Steve finally get through to Graham?

Probably not.

Later the weekly Contest is one of those jump over a pole, duck under a pole, over and over and over things.

But first! Simon and Lisa have an emotional goodbye before Simon heads off into the outside world. Simon tells her it’s the best place for her.

And my PVR’s chucking a wobbly so this could get exciting!

TBL 7×38 – First Singles Weigh In, First Singles Elimination. First GRAHAM SMASH!

Previously on The Biggest Loser… Singles time. They were (mostly) already singles but now they’re technically not in teams anymore either.

Temptation saw a bunch of drama with Simon and Margie coming to verbal blows with Margie eventually earning herself Immunity.

Tonight! The weekly challenge concludes with the end of the sort-of-marathon. Margie and Lydia are competing for the 1kg advantage at weigh in after both Simon and Graham collapsed earlier during the event.
Also, Simon and Graham are still down and out after the challenge. Simon looks a bit shellshocked by the whole ordeal.

Then at the weigh in the simmering tension between Steve and Graham finally comes to a head.

NOW KISS!

I mean, now fight! Looks like Steve’s sick of Graham saying he’s proud on the scales when he ain’t done jack and Graham’s tired of being told he ain’t done jack. Should be painfully awkward viewing.
