Agreed, it was superb. Rylan a smash hit. I didn't like Greg's weird opening monologue with multiple camera shots though.

I have always loved Rylan and that ep cemented it even more.

"Ooh I was in a movie"

I'd always assumed Rylan was just some vacuous reality TV wanker.

I can never decide where I stand on Rylan. He can be one of the most annoying twats on TV at any given moment, but I really can't bring myself to hate him! He's just so perpetually sunny!

No idea who Rylan is, I think I've only seen him in some advert talking to a couple in a kitchen. Thought he was very funny in this episode though, dirty bastard.

Wouldn't mind seeing a full series with those 5.

I think he was originally an X factor contestant and then managed to wrangle a couple of presenting gigs off the back of his personality - Big Brother's Little Brother I think was his "big" one.

I can totally see with his background and the first impression he gives out why people would write him off as a vacuous fame hungryreality knob, but I think he's a very clever guy with a lot of depth to him.

He shot to fame via The X Factor and later won a series of Celebrity Big Brother.

Generally I find those types of z-listers loathesome, by Rylan is alright.

Oh yeah I finally got around to watching this last night. Twas good, as other have said, I could have happily enjoyed a full series with this line-up.

Favourite bit was when Rylan had to exclaim how he'd had a great idea every time the bell was rung.

Yeah, to be completely fair to the guy he is clearly a worker, does loads of presenting, advertising and appearance stuff and generally keeps himself busy. Seems like a decent enough person.

You should look up his histrionics on X-Factor. It’s deeply hilarious.

EDIT:

Prepare yourselves...

For a minute I thought the Apple Computers guy was going to be on Taskmaster. Only know Lee Mac by name, but look forward to seeing the rest.

Edit: I recognise Charlotte Ritchie from Fresh Meat.
