TBL 7×36 – Marathon-ish challenge leads to a variety of drama llama. Ding dong!

Previously on The Biggest Loser Alex was supposed to be chained to Graham but he chucked a tantrum and refused to do it.

Alex has since received… a 2kg weight disadvantage at weigh in. Pfffft.

Temptation this week is at the Sushi Train restaurant and it’s down to Margie and Graham competing for Immunity.
Tonight we find out if either of them manage to find it or if they both give up and let Michelle keep her useless Immunity.
But not before Margie and Simon have some harsh words to each other as the Temptation gets quite tense.

Later The Contest kicks off and it’s going to leave some contestants much worse for wear.

TBL 7×35 – Sushi Train at Sushi Train. SUSHI SUSHI SUSHI! (It’s all icky.)

Previously on The Biggest Loser the contestants were confronted with life size cardboard cutouts of themselves from Day One. And it was awful!

Then they ran 400 metres with the weight they’ve lost strapped to their bodies. Lisa won, getting to go on The Walk.

Tonight the repercussions from The Walk are going to hit home especially hard for Alex. He might even consider leaving? Or possibly actually leave?
Alex is nowhere in sight during the Sushi Train Temptation…

Lisa’s walking through the dank tunnel to get to the location for The Walk as we get going. She’s excited to seeing what power she’s going to get.
Lydia, meanwhile, is off to sit in The Bunker to spy on Lisa. Ugh.

Food, Training and Mystery are the boxes again. Hayley reminds her that they’re competing as Singles now and having power over the game is important.

Yeah yeah, this is the same stuff every week. The power could give them an edge but it could also put a target on your back.

Lisa’s weighing up her options. Food can have a big impact, Training isn’t such a big deal as most of them can do their training on their own now. But Mystery’s a Mystery and not necessarily targeted at someone in particular.

TBL 7×34 – Ghosts of chubbies past.

Previously on The Biggest Loser Selena finally got her wish and was sent home for a second time. Will she have the balls to turn up for the Eliminated Contestants second chance thing? Surely not…

Tonight! The competition moves to the next stage as the teams are dispersed into singles. Which, as we’ve seen in previous seasons, doesn’t really matter that much. Teams are still teams and teams are still going to look out for each other.
Mostly.

Also a physical challenge with the remaining contestants carrying their lost weight around in a backpack for a gruelling run.

But first, Hayley tells the three remaining girls in the Elimination Room that this is where the game really starts to heat up.
Hayley tells the Red and Black Team to come in and announces the obvious – Selena’s been eliminated. Now, come for a walk with Hayley!

They all head back to the weigh in room where Lydia’s got a Red shirt for Margie to get back into.

Congratulations all round for everyone making it this far. They’ve lost, as a combined group, 508.8kg. Which is two Ryans, Kasey tells us.

Now it’s time to shake the game up. Say goodbye to your teams. You’re now competing as singles. Margie exclaims that she only just came back!

So, who’s winning so far in Singles?

TBL 7×33 – Old Dogs vs Young Pups gets settled, finally!

Previously on The Biggest Loser SO MANY THINGS. Old Dogs versus Young Pups is on this week. Lydia knows THE SECRET of The Bunker.

Young Pups lost at the weekly challenge which is leading to an instant weigh in for one of them tonight. Later there’ll be the usual weigh-in and possibly an Elimination.

Busy busy busy this episode!

As the episode picks up again we’re getting some more of Margie talking about being strategic and Michelle thinking maybe Margie threw the challenge. But who really knows?

Time for the Old Dogs to decide who on the Young Pups will have to weigh in immediately. After much discussion they’ve decided Selena will weigh in early.
That… doesn’t seem very strategic. Selena tends to be the lame duck at weigh in time anyway.
She’s nervous, her diet’s been better this week, but she was hoping for a bit more time and some Last Chance Training. But oh well, she’s done her best, she says.

TBL 7×32 – Friday Flirty Funtimes. Fweeeee!

Previously on… oh right it’s Friday, so THE ENTIRE WEEK WAS ON.

Tonight some “home truths” about Lydia.
What really happened on the first date between Hamish and Michelle. Hint: IT WAS REALLY FUCKING AWKWARD.
And Hamish’s makeover, presumably before his date.

Plus what we didn’t see at Charm School. Does anyone really want to see more of that? Really? If we must.

But first, all the crap we already saw this week.
