I was amazed she accepted it, if she had any manners she would have refused or given it to Harry who is 71

I get the feeling Anne has a sense of entitlement, I hope I am proved wrong as I really like her on the Chase

I don't think so, she seemed to genuinely be struggling last night

there’s no denying she’s having a tough time but she’s doing well and coming across very well

I don't watch the Chase but Ive seen bits and know who she is. But you are right with the entitlement. She happily sits back and lets the others do everything when she is quite clearly able to do some things to help around camp. She lets Fleur treat her like a child and she could easily have refused Nicks nice gesture.
I don't dislike her and she has taught me a few things about her condition...but she needs to do something in the camp but I think she will happily sit back and let the others rally round her.

I agree ,she does act like she believes she's entitled and she put zero effort into feeding the camp last night ,but I bet she expects them to do a damn sight worse tasks to feed her

I don't dislike her but I do think she is alot more capable than she is letting on
