I think they have done a fantastic job with social distancing

I thought the live task at the end was a bit harsh on Johnny, Mawaan and Katherine as they had harder objects to draw/guess.

I definitely felt like they were pushing someone to win the live task, yeah. Having them draw lasagne and stuff like that was nonsense. I guess the idea was that there are more of them to guess so it had to be harder for them, but I mean come on, a syringe?

A syringe can't really be confused with anything else, if drawn correctly, and is a fairly common object to recognise. A clarinet on the other hand isn't.

Live team tasks also mean it's impossible for some contestants to win the episode, like Mawaan in tonght's episode.

Joe Thomas is a socially awkward person and seems naturally uncomfortable in interviews etc when he’s supposed to being himself. I think overtime he’s found that if he plays up to this it actually helps him to feel comfortable.

So far I'd say this has been a very solid season. I was a bit worried about it making the jump to C4 but it's been very good, generally.

I thought Richard was harshly judged on the upside down task. I can't quite remember - did he come last? I would have put his second after Johnny.

Another brilliant episode, this is shaping up to be the best series yet.

Katherine Parkinson has me in stitches, she's obviously intelligent but strawberry float me she is terrible at these tasks. :lol:
