    I swear I cannot decide if Lucy Beaumont is actually a comedian or if she’s had head trauma and someone incredibly cruel is giving her out for us to laugh at. I can’t think of any comedian I’ve ever felt more like saying “are you alright, love?” to.

    In the last task Julian was prodding her to actually pretend to hold the pineapple behind her terser.

      I know what you mean, it’s as if she’s only vaguely aware of what’s going on most of the time. She’s like a real-life Father Dougal.

      I think that is part of the show dynamics. There is one person you look at in ep 1 and say nope, they are not going to win.

    Does anyone know if Susan is maybe a classically trained actor or something?

    Lots of laugh out loud in this one for me.

    Julian’s deadpan sass “good luck with your career”

    Sam’s insane (but quite noisy) prize

    I’m disappointed Alex only kept up with “(knees and toes)” for Sam’s.

    No secret task mention this time I think?

      My wife choked on her water when Lucy said the gargoyle looked like someone she use to date.

        For me it’s when she described the gargoyle as “put the thing they have on churches that’s evil” and Julian said confidently, “crucifix”

    That was one hell of swing from prize task to final task.

    Greg’s into was quite something.

    Quite enjoyed Sue Perkins safety demonstration, really reinforces that she is got thrown back in the to the 50s she would fit in very well.

    I was in stitches during the final task. 30 grand babyyyyy
