She fairly jumped out it for the kiosk question though.

I think she faced it all quite well. But I really was disappointed that she didn't get to totally freak out in Cube 3. I am hoping that she ends up doing the 3rd one anyway. It's cruel justice, but you just can't say "I'm a Celebrity", when nobody has heard of you. GET BACK IN THERE.

Many, many people have heard of her.

Just because you haven't doesn't mean nobody has.

I'm not so sure. Now I know about her asperger's I think I can see it in how she comes across on The Chase. I'd always thought her social interaction on the show was lacking, now I know why.

Like I really don't want to entertain people with arguments but people simply cannot fake a reaction which is so uncomfortable to watch, especially when she has Asperger's. The fact she manages fine on the Chase, a setting and job she knows and has been in for over 8 years now, doesn't mean she will cope well in other situations, especially when she's now half the world away and, the days before the task, she was sleeping on the floor with basic ractions. It's enough to throw a neurotypical person off, let alone someone with Asperger's.

She has Asperger's. It affects her in unfamiliar situations. Her friend, 'The Vixen', confirmed this.

And the fact is, she tried. She did two out of five monoliths. There have been people who have had no (at least known) conditions which have quit near enough the start of the Bushtucker trial. Anne did more than them and tried.

It's completely unfair to say her Asperger's only comes out in the Jungle and not in the Chase. Two completely different situations. I don't know why but I expected everyone to understand Anne was distressed and is actually disabled, dunno why I got my hopes up

Yeah, I don't get these arguments about The Chase.

She goes there to do her job as a quiz master, around colleagues she knows and is familiar with and in a situation she is used to. No doubt she had her teething problems with that to begin with.

Versus the jungle which is not only a completely brand new environment for them all but an awkward social environment for Anne. She's not there just to go in and answer questions, but live in this strange environment for three weeks. As Ant says that's strange enough for someone without Aspergers, never mind with. Good on her for powering through.

I don’t even see how The Chase and the jungle are in any way comparable whatsoever. The smallest bit of research about the subject, and I mean small as in it would probably appear in the first thing on Google, is that autism is great for quizzing because you pick up facts and remember them.

But of course it’s just easier to make ignorant remarks and make yourself look like a fool I guess. Why should we expect anything else!

I have the condition Anne has, probably not on the severity but yeah the comparison between the chase and trials is stupid. People with this sort of autism get obsessed with certain things and remember them very well which is amazing for stuff like quizzing, but you also end up being inadequate in other areas due to being so focused on one thing. Also tend to get stressed out in social situations and find it difficult to make eye contact, and honestly just gets stressed out and overwhelmed easier. I feel for her and I hope the pubic can feel the same way as I think she’s done amazingly already and the only way is up

Dunno why everyone is making her aspergers out to be her stumbling block in the jungle...she's already fitting in comfortably with everyone so that's not even an issue now...its her size that's holding her back and making her depressed cause she "thinks" she's incapable..


Well sorry but I don't tend to have much sympathy for self inflicted fat arses.

"amazing for stuff like quizzing, but you also end up being inadequate in other areas due to being so focused on one thing. Also tend to get stressed out in social situations and find it difficult to make eye contact"

newsflash: that is a lot of people as well as those with a diagnosis ie your bog standard introvert
