I get that Bert then why give Kate 2 surely 1s across the bored would be the way forward unless you can't do that?

I've just watched it. Glad I didn't stay up, it was rubbish apart from the final ratings! And there wasn't much in it because they all scored each other so poorly apart from Dan.

The only interesting one as PP mentioned os Freddie scoring Kate higher than Sian. I'm amazed Freddie just didn't score everyone 1. That was a bit bizarre.

I'm not sure how I feel because on one hand Dan was true to himself the whole time but he lost. I think he did the right thing by following his heart and staying true to his principles. The show is a game though. I think if Alex had given him 5 stars he still would've won. That's what sucks the most.

If Alex had given Dan 5, Sian gave him 3 and Freddie gave 1 Dan would have won no?

Alex got 5 from dan 2 from Freddie and one from Sian didn't he?

I still think the twist should have been they got the votes they gave, then the fairest person would have won (Dan). Kate & Freddie would have been last. It’s surprising they didn’t all just give each other 1

The uncovered program was properly disappointing. Essentially just a recap of the series, which is completely unnecessary given that people who'd want to watch it are those who watched the series.

Agreed, it is properly off that Freddie rated Kate higher than Sian. But, that said, I don't exactly get the impression he has so much as a scrap of integrity in his whole body. He's the ultimate friend you'd never trust. Especially around your partner. The way he talks about men he fancies is gross.

Just watched the catch up programme, what a disappointment. So dull and boring.

agree, we don't need the series summarised, we watched it. We wanted to see how they made the series, did they all have people sitting in with them typing when they shouted orders plus more about how their lives have been affected after the circle, how they get on with each other now etc.

FurryBuzzer · 18/10/2018 22:54

Yeah just caught up and I'm a bit disappointed. I wanted to get a bit more of what they thought of it since leaving, there were only snippets of that. And the presenters didn't really add anything imo

Although it was worth it to see Freddy snigger half way through saying he felt sorry for Dan, very insincere!

I assumed they couldn't rate everyone 1 so Freddy scored Kate 2 assuming that Sian and Dan were bigger threats.

If Alex had rated Dan 3 or more, he would have seemed less mean with the votes the way they were. If everyone had scored like Freddy, Alex would have seemed quite nice!

They will have to think it through if there's another season.

I think a second season would be really different, assuming all the players would have seen this one and there would be a lot more suspicions...

Petalflowers · 21/10/2018 11:32

Just caught up,with this. I agree with the above comments that they could have done it better.

The ratings were interesting though. Although Dan was honest, I don’t think Alex should feel bad that Dan scored him highly. Alex wasn’t the only one scorely tacticallyand they all knew it was a game. Dan had the same opportunity as the others at scoring tactically, but chose not too.
