Nah man people's heads sit poking out of the top of a little mountain plateau made of traps all the time, you're crazy
Sport takes priority apparently. ITV the same sport instead of normal Saturday night telly.
They could at least have put the episode up on iplayer.

Damn. Has it just been delayed for a week?
The BBC used to be on channels 1 and 2, and ITV was channel 3. Both have around 4 channels each nowadays which is surely enough capacity to shunt a weekly fixture.
Oh well, will just have to watch it next Saturday instead. Then the finals will be in the Easter weekend.

Looked like Matt threw that.
It's a damn shame to go out that way
Gutted that Chung was out of the competition but I was still glad of the outcome from the guys.
The ladies' Eliminator was unexpected. The one in the lead threw it all away.
A number of contenders have succumbed to the balance beam now.

Poor Chung, he was having a pretty poor semifinal other than the Wall too. Can't believe Kerry lost that, she was insane in the events.

Wow what a crazy amount of upsets all in that one episode... feel bad for Chung and Kerry
Also feels weird that one of the men's finalists is the guy who never even competed in any heats and randomly got brought in instead of an actual heat runner up to replace someone else who dropped out (and then beat someone who seemed to be kind of terrible after his much better opponent dropped out)

I do question what they were doing in the original selection process to leave him out, though. Not only is he a very strong contender, but he's quite a fun character too. Seems perfect to get picked, really.
I had picked Chung to win the whole thing after the heats, so disappointed to see him go out to injury.
Think the men's final is a repeat of the quarters, isn't it? That was a close finish iirc.
On the women's side, Bronte had been the one I picked at the heats stage, but Kerry had looked miles ahead of everyone in the quarters (I must have just not noticed, or forgotten, her in the heats), so a real shock to see her go out.
The top 2 males and top 2 females are in this table spoilered below, which I have pinched from Wikipedia. I have also put who I would like to win if I was a betting man 
The 1st 4 rows are the winners from the semis. They will be playing in the finals this coming Saturday.
Finley vs Wesley - I hope Wesley wins.
Bronte vs Marie-Louse - I hope Bronte wins.

That makes sense as to why I didn't really notice how good Kerry was in the heats: it was the first episode so hard to benchmark, and doubly so since she went against the fastest loser.The top 2 males and top 2 females are in this table spoilered below, which I have pinched from Wikipedia.

Or who can outlast the injuries of the women Gladiators. Dynamite was in almost every event last week, I'm guessing the injuries to the other Glads means that the others have to step up even more.
