8×27 – Tug. Tug. Tug. Tug. Tug.

Previously on The Biggest Loser we started seeing the results of the makeovers on the contestants but we didn’t get to finish. Pfft.

Tonight we get to see the rest of the makeovers… and then a five way tug of war with a “game changing advantage” on offer. And a potentially bad injury to Mandy?

First up tonight is Kirsten. We only saw her legs and the bottom hem of her skirt or dress. It was bright yellow! Tonight we find out it’s a skirt with a blue top and a shiny belt. She looks quite pretty and tells us she feels quite sexy.

Michelle says they both have dangerous curves, it must be hereditary.

8×26 – How long until we invent practical holograms?

Previously on The Biggest Loser Sam and Jess got eliminated… again!

Tonight, makeover night, hooray! And for the first time the contestants will be “confronted” by holographic versions of their old selves. How cool, how futuristic, how… are people still using this, wasn’t it enough when they had stupid live news crosses to tiny holograms or when they dug up notorious douchebag Tupac in hologram form.

Aaaaanyway. Mish has a sad because her hard working red team Sam and Jess have gone home and she has just Janet and Kirsten left. With a smaller team Mish thinks they actually have an advantage now. Kirsten thinks the other teams aren’t really looking at who the threats are and so they’re going to make themselves a threat. They were second on the leaderboard this week and Kirsten thinks it’s time that potential is realised.

8×25 – Six teams become five, not long now!

Previously on The Biggest Loser Richard and Amber won immunity at the challenge and Gerald and Todd got their very own early makeovers.

Tonight, last chance training, weigh in, elimination, excitements.

We pick up the training tonight with Shannan’s green and grey teams. Todd’s determined not to go under the yellow line this week so he’s trying to burn off as many calories as he can. Gerald’s confident he’s given it 100% for the whole week in the gym but he’s still a little worried.

What about the chatter at the challenge, Shannan asks? Richard said they’d have green’s back if they fall below the line and that Richard’s said he’ll be a man of his word. And he’s part of an alliance so they should have the power to save them. But Gerald knows that he and Todd are in the top slot and if Richard’s serious about winning the $200,000 then obviously he needs to get rid of green.

8×24 – And I Would Walk 500 Miles…

Previously on The Biggest Loser the top six got to pick their trainers for the run to finale and Gerald and Todd won their very own makeover.

Tonight we see the results of the makeover because the bastards didn’t show us last night. The weekly challenge also kicks off and it’s another endurance event, this time on the treadmills.

But before all that let’s listen to Shannan talk about the makeover again!

8×23 – Time to Pick a Dick… err, Trainer

Previously on The Biggest Loser Mark and Chris failed to return for their second chance, meaning Janet and Kirsten make it through along with Sam and Jess.

Tonight King Dick’s getting cocky, but who’s leading the race overall? Everyone will be weighing in to check everyone’s standings since the start of the show. Gerald and Todd have a heart to heart chat about… things.

And The Fridge is going to award one lucky team a makeover! I’m not entirely sure how a fridge will give anyone a makeover, it doesn’t even have any hands. Or any other appendage, really.

Everyone’s having breakfast in the kitchen and having a chat when the trainers rock up. They discover Janet and Kirsten have made it back after the voting. King Richard says they were always going to bring back the pink team because the black team were the bigger threat.
