…now that we are back to normal and the team that should not be named are gone. We’re back to normal editing and normal pace and it’s more like the show I know and love.

It’s still less than perfect though as we still missed out on two weeks worth of the show. They have been there for a month now, a month and we’ve only seen 5 episodes.

I usually love and adore certain contestants by now, I usually loathe some also – at this stage I still don’t even know most of their names, I don’t know who’s on which training team even.

We can never get those two weeks back

I was random channel surfing last night and came across Spencer Smith from Bib Brother 3 on some fishing program talking about pond kits, how random can you get?

I do remember him having an interest in fishing during the show actually, but it seemed like he disappeared once the show was over so was surprised to see him on TV at all.

My word I was so in love with that guy, my first ever proper reality TV person crush

My fiance and I have been ‘jet setting’ a lot recently, I say jet setting…I don’t think it really counts as that when you go on the train, but still – we’ve been getting out and about. Our most recent trip was to Liverpool a few weeks ago, we stayed in a hotel that was right by the side of the dock and we had a view of it from our window – as a bonus it actually snowed as well

We went shopping in the city centre and it’s massive, we actually got lost more than once! We also went on the big wheel that was there at the time, popped into the local Quicksilver Games arcade for a quick flutter and got something to eat and drink in the Yates.

We had planned on getting up early the next day and visiting the Beatles museum but because of the snow we decided we really should set off home as early as possible instead.

We’ll definitely go back one day though

So my favourite TV show is back, but they absolutely killed it – and I don’t mean that in a good way, I mean they killed it.

Long story short a week or so before it was set to begin airing they found out one of the contestants had been arrested on child porn related charges and announced they were going to be doing a drastic reedit of the show to make it appear as though they were never there.

I was intrigued as to how they were going to do it, were they going to blur them out? Or try use close up shots so they weren’t in them?

Nope, as I found out when I tuned it they decided to simply skip the first two weeks of the show – are they freaking serious?

We are now back to normal but I don’t even know the names yet, I don’t know what training teams they are on – we’ve seen them do about 2 workouts and most of them have already lost 20 pounds.

It sucks, I feel as though I have been robbed.

We’re visiting my parents at the moment back in Yorkshire, I always love coming home even at 30 years old as I lived her for my entire life previous to moving to the Midlands.

We are going to head into Leeds on Monday to do some shopping, it’s only around 10 minutes on the train and usually makes for a good day out. I always love visiting The Corn Exchange and having a cuppa in Costa, we’ll also likely spend 30 minutes in one of the Quicksilver Games Arcades as it is a bit of a tradition whenever we go to either a seaside or a city!

We’ll also be having something to eat in The Cuthbert Brodrick and then finishing off at the cinema to finally see Avatar 3D
