Anybody watch it? Last years contestants were the worst ever, according to AS.

Can't believe the way in some of this series "contestants" behave themselves during the tasks - and these people are already earning £50K plus in high powered professional jobs!

Now get 'em off the programme and lets see some brickies, tarmacers, landscapers & pavers in there - we'd show 'em how to do it!!

I really enjoy the programme. I reckon Simon will win; he was the guy who suggested that the "nice" guy, Andy, who got kicked out last week should be project manager. Otherwise I think it'll be Adam who'll win.

The American version is even better IMO. The contestants on that are hilarious.

Why anyone would break their neck to work with Donald Trump is beyond my comprehension.

I'd far rather work with you lot, even if the pay isn't as good.

Greed I reckon.

Nice bloke he was, but how the hell did that guy get past the selection process when he missed his wife and kids? Prevented somebody else joining!

greed maybe. I reckon they want their 15 minutes of fame. wonder if they get a good wage whilst on the show. i did a programme 20 years ago and got £50 for the night, chauffeur driven home to home and all you could eat, or, drink. any drink and me a teetotaller. F**K it was tempting :(
