I'm a celebrity.

Who'll be the toxic, acidic character this year? There's always at least one. I don't usually watch the reality stuff but I quite like this.

Can anyone be that stupid?

Don't like it when it is the same person voted over and over.
Can't imagine the other celebs like it much either. After all, they have all gone on there to be part of the show - sitting around whilst one person does every challenge isn't relly what they sign up for.

Bless Joey- but I can imagine how it happens. You never know - by the end of the show he may well now know how to tell the time properly with Amy helping in.

That was predictable

Really oh dear!

Why do the viewers do that?
It's so annoying.

Oh no - both the same again - hate that!
Come on phoning people - chose someone else.

Wouldn't surprise me if Joey lets Matthew win if possible so that they can eat properly tomorrow.

I so just want to mother joey.

Mary I have to say it was plenty interesting when the good "doctor" was voted in every single lots.

It really couldn't have happened to a nicer pretendy Doctor

So no programme tomorrow.

It isn't fair to have winner takes all, and it makes it more acceptable to just refuse to take part, as you aren't losing anything more.

it is entirely possible, sadly, to end up in your twenties and unable to tell the time. my dsd cannot tell the time. she fronts up with a lot of bravado about it, but it has a huge impact on her life.

she can read the time, on a digital clock, but cannot properly relate that to realtime.

I hope Joey does learn. It makes such a difference to life.

pickledmoomin - I reckon the medical grounds could be because she has her period. Mind you if it is submerged I can't believe she let that stop her training.

I told my DS1 that the tie breaker for the eating challenge was they had to eat cat.

He got me to rewind to prove it

Rebecca Adlington has asthma, it might be because of that.

I think it would be an improvement to have a rule that nobody can do two voted trials in a row

I'd work at it if still possible, Maryz.

dsd is 25, and it makes life very difficult for her. she cannot work out bus/train journeys, or read the timetables. she has no notion of time relativity - so if she needs to be at X place by 9.30, she cannot work out what time to leave home.

she was fine hwile her life was being organised for her at school - have timetable, and the bell rang to tell her when to go to various places. time already divided up, job done. but now she has no centrally organised timetable (she doens't have a permanent job, and is temping, so times/dates/journey lengths change all the time), she finds it very hard.

Thanks!

That must be very difficult. Sis can do all that (needs to, she's freelance, needs to be everywhere and anywhere at random times) but can't/won't read a clock face. Very odd.

ah, ok fair enough. often the inability ot read an analogue clockface translates into a deficit in understanding of time itself, iyswim?

it has become a 'thing' for dsd (stubborn is not the word!), and so she refuses to begin to learn, and struggles on. I wish she would try, because it would make such a difference to her life.

the deficit in understanding time itself sounds very difficult, and I can see if it's a 'thing', she'd rather not try than fail. But it's so important. Poor DSD, I hope you all find a strategy for it in tine.
