Yes, and that was all down to the muppet that had them back an hour later than planned. So if this was the reason that thei refund was so large then it makes even more of a mockery of the PM not being fired.
If that isn't the case, then the only other reason I can think of is that Virdi is likely to make a complete arse of himself through the series, and therefore good TV. It's annoying though - there is no integrity in the decision making, yet I'll still end up watching it.
100% this.
After his 'high IQ/bench press/eye candy' intro and his clueless clapping I think he's safe as this generates discussion and drives viewing figures. Maybe he really IS clever and it's just an act. Who knows (cares)?
Every year I feel this way. Most years I still get sucked back in. Not quite sure why. The contestants annoy me, Karen Brady annoys me and Alan Sugar annoys me. That Tim guy might as well be an AI bot as well, complete personality vacuum.
I dunno about that. Photoshop etc are complex and take a lot of skill to master. Take any group of nine young people and you would expect at least one of them to have an idea about how to cook something; when I was that age I had a rather limited range of dinners but I knew how to follow a recipe, as did most of my chums.
Also, watching people cock up cooking is funny.
Haven't watched this series but I'm going on previous series. I didn't see him as intimidating, I saw him as just completely nothing - literally like an android come to life - no emotion whatsoever.
See for me, the boys' activities were good, and their food was good too (until it was delayed) so to say the girls won easily doesn't ring true to me. They all should have been fired for the crumble fishcakes.
That is particularly disappointing to hear.
Indeed. In fact, just to reinforce the disappointment of the lack of eye-candy, they've given them a POOL in the house.
