That last one Roman and James had to do, there was no way they could have got all 3 of those, even if they'd left the crab one till last, I think 1 at the very most would have been as much as time would allow for that. Thoughts?

It was designed so there would be a few without a dinner, also it showed up James as not being a particularly good loser

James is nice as pie when he's winning/leading

[Cherie]

Think its very competitive in there so far this year with those that have done the trials, no one wants to lose

[Niamh.]

Yeah they've all been great at them actually, even Jackie as much as she protests

[Vanessa]

There was not enough time. And that massive crab nearly took James finger

Yeah I agree. Otherwise the task would be pointless if there were no losers.

[Twosugars]

Yeah it was done on purpose. 90 seconds was unrealistic

If the crabs weren't so lively I reckon they could've done it

He's a sportsman, he is pre programmed to want to win and be disappointed if he loses but agree that it was made to be impossible for them to manage it in the time allowed

Disagree. Even without any critters they'd have failed. Those threaded bolts were too long

[GoldHeart]

It was RIGGED AF !!! , producers & Ant & Dec themselves knew the task was impossible even without crabs & snakes , 90 seconds is NOT enough time !! .

They wanted Ian ,Clif & Andy to go WITHOUT food so that a fight will kick off , soo transparent .

5 seconds per star?!!! What kind of BS is that ! Even with 2 of them it still made no difference. Plus screwing the stars on and off with vicious angry giant crabs in the way blocking it so unfair & stupid.
