9×32 – The Biggest Loser: Challenge Australia – Finale Recap

Previously on The Biggest Loser THE ENTIRE FUCKING SEASON!

Tonight it all comes to an end with the finale. Which champion from Ararat will be the most championest of all?

Eleventy weeks ago Shannan and Steve kicked off a revolution in Ararat, dubbed the fattest in the country. Given the tools and assistance they were set the goal of losing 26,000kg during the course of the show. A challenge they accepted and passed!

Lots and lots of recapped footage starts the show. Then a reminder it’s down to Sharon, Craig, Katrina and Toni for the finale tonight. They’ve worked hard for their town, hard for their families and hard for themselves.

And for the finale they’re at the town hall in Ararat. Hayley comes out on a big fancy stage in a hot pink dress to have a natter to the crowd about how the champs have done so well, worked hard, had some fun along the way. But it comes down to tonight, who did the best? Lots of cheers as Hayley announces all the final four’s names.

9×18 – Pyramid of Pain!

Previously on The Biggest Loser Shannon decided she’d had enough and went home. Then Caitlin was sent home at the elimination, the first black team member to be eliminated.

Tonight Michelle has a special guest trainer with her at Ararat. And back at Camp Biggest Loser we finally move to the singles part of the competition.

Then a “gladiatorial challenge”… oh come on, it’s just exercise not a battle to the death. Or is it, Kev’s not looking so good!

But first the black team is having a quiet sit and chat about who’ll be coming back from elimination. Kerry’s particularly quiet as his wife may be the one to be sent home.

Of course we already know she’s not!

9×17 – Stuck too much in your mouth, huh?

Previously on The Biggest Loser the black team had to carry a 5kg golden nugget around until weigh in. Then the weekly challenge was a pun-tacular event with contestants having to chuck tires in the back of a trailer. And that made them very tired. Sigh.

Tonight it’s last chance training, where Cal will chuck a wobbly, then the weigh in where Steve will chuck a wobbly at someone, then it’ll be elimination times!

Shannan’s got his blue team in the gym for a chat before training. They’re all a bit tired and sore from the challenge and gutted they didn’t win. Shannon says they couldn’t do it because she couldn’t do it. Her, personally, not the team. She couldn’t move the log, she says, and Cal’s nodding along beside her. Dick!

Shannan reckons Shannon could move the log and it’s just a mind over matter thing. So what are they going to do to win the weigh in? Work really hard, Shannan. Of course!

Shannan’s got them something for a pick-me-up. It’s a video from Cam, telling them to keep going, etc. Cal’s not interested and walks out as the video starts, leaving Katrina, Shannon and Kev to watch the video on the ipad. Kevin doesn’t even know Cam but he’s still listening politely, yet Cal can’t be stuffed?

9×16 – I am so TIREd of these puns

Previously on The Biggest Loser the Ararat blue team won an advantage for the blue team at Camp Biggest Loser. Craig found a 5kg “gold nugget” the black team has to carry 24 hours a day until the weigh in.

Tonight Shannon’s going to make a breakthrough in training and then it’ll be time for the weekly challenge, this week that means lugging a bunch of tires and dumping them into a cage.

But first the trainers turn up to Camp to catch up with the champs. First on the agenda is the gold nugget explanation of course. Cal tries to grab the gold nugget away, half in jest, half seriously. Shannan approves!

Shannan’s come into the house carrying a newspaper and on the front page of the Ararat Advertiser is a picture of the blue team winning at their challenge. Cool! I guess.

9×13 – STACKS ON!!!

Previously on The Biggest Loser Australia Cal was shifted from the black team to the blue thanks to The Fridge and Caitlin’s decision to sacrifice him, since he’s been kind of an arsehole to the team.

People won prizes like letters from home and Katrina won a visit from loved ones thanks to a fun challenge/auction.

Tonight Katrina trains her husband and her sons in the gym. Then the weekly challenge is the return of the STACKS ON challenge from previous years. They’re using sandbags for the weight and a sturdy wooden yoke to support them this time, not the weightlifting gear they’ve used in the past.
