TBL 11×12 – Training with AFL footballists, then cooking them lunch!
Previously on The Biggest Loser Jake was sent home at the elimination after being unable to beat either Josh or Nikki.
Josh still has a broken rib so he’s still going to be pretty useless at everything, but he’s still there!
“Coming up”, I guess Mr Voiceover Man got the memo. It’s not a night time show anymore! Anyway, the teams are going to train with the GWS Giants and then cook for them.
But first, back at Camp Biggest Loser everyone’s still feeling a bit glum after Jake’s elimination. Everyone liked the big fella. Amy and Lisa-Faye (not a real name) are sad they didn’t get to say goodbye properly. Nikki tells them that he broke down outside the arena and couldn’t come back in.
TBL 11×11 – Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight…
Previously on The Biggest Loser Amy smashed Simon in the team head to head challenge.
“Tonight”… oh Mr Voiceover Man, has nobody told you? It’s 1pm on a Monday afternoon!
Anyway, in this episode last chance training, a heated weigh-in and a shock elimination in the arena. Exciting!
Team Blue relays the exciting news they won another challenge, head to heads against the Orange team. Shannan’s obviously very impressed by Amy beating Simon, asks how her shoulders are. “Sore”, admits Amy. Worth it for the 1kg advantage they’ll have at the weigh-in later.
Lynton’s a high achiever, Shannan says. He wanted to be a pilot, then an instructor, but as a result his health has suffered along the way. But he’s seeing a changed man now. Lynton’s moving a lot more like a 27 year old, says he’s going to join a gym when he leaves. He’s generally feeling a lot more positive about the direction of his life.
The Biggest Loser Transformed dumped from 7.30pm slot
It seems Australians didn’t really want a more realistic version of The Biggest Loser with viewing figures crashing last week. According to TV Tonight it was fifth in its timeslot this week. Fifth!
As a result the show will move to a 1pm afternoon slot, Monday to Thursday. The show was airing replays at that time previously, so it’s not displacing anything while it takes the long march to the grave.
It’s unclear at this stage what will happen with the plans for the finale as viewers were meant to be voting for their favourite transformation to decide the really big prize at the end, instead of just basing it on weightloss percentage.
The Recap will continue to do its thing despite the change in timeslot, so if you miss an episode of the lowest rating series in the show’s history you can still catch up right here!
