DISQUS

there's a whole lot of things that you can tell about the rest of the week just from the preview at the end of the show... although I don't really want to spoil you all :)

they started airing on the 1st of January.. maybe they were down to their final (skinnier) 4? And I know that at the start, there were 20.. so maybe.

"All through this you can see people in the background training on more exercise gear. What’s with that?"

I noticed this as well... Could it be that the 5th american season was still filming at this time? It would make sense given Bob never seems to be around. The people were wearing black shirts too, and as far as I know that fits in with the timeline of the american season.

despite Debbie being retarded, which was hilarious...

In regards to the fatties looking out the weigh-in-room door, perhaps someone who's pissed off with their weight loss storms out of the room? (michael...?)

To that end as well, there's 7 fridges and thus 7 spots on the blue team, which sounds about right. For symmetry's sake I figure they wouldn't actually remove any fridges after an elimination.. So if there's 7 on each, then that leaves 16 for Steve to train (which I think is just stupid). It seems logical that Steve would have 7 as well so I think 9 of them will actually be sent home (like US season 3, maybe with catch-ups every so often).

Or! There's no way that it could happen but it would have been good if they'd had 30 people between Shannan, Michelle, Steve, Bob and Jillian :)

.. can't edit, but ok. Yeah, at the third overhead shot at 0:11/0:12 I'm certain there's 30.. don't mean to undermine you :D

In one of the overhead shots, I counted 30 :)

clearly the surprise is a third black team.. A count shows there's 30 contestants. Surely 10 per team is far too much?
