I can't seem to find a start date. I've looked on their twitter where they have confirmed the celebs taking part:
Denise Van Outen - actress
Baga Chipz - RuPaul's Drag Race
Duncan James - Blue
Saffron Barker - influencer
Rickie Haywood-Williams - DJ
Melvin Odoom - DJ & TV presenter
Nadia Sawalha - Loose Women
Kate Adams - Loose Women
Pete Wicks - reality shows
Sam Thompson - reality shows
Lady Leshurr - rapper
Charlotte Crosby - reality shows

Who do we think they will visit? I think William or Narstie.

The William couple. That’s made me giggle.

Makes me rage that they keep us waiting till next time to see who they visit. I think they’d showed us who Duncan visited on the night he left.

I am loving this much more than I thought I would given the celebs involved.

Agree Pete and Sam are doing well as Rachel, and the interactions between them are really funny. They slipped up last night by typing 'would of' rather than would have! Not a mistake that Oxbridge educated Rachel would make, but I suspect the other celebs are not as grammar obsessed as me Grin

I hope they visit Denise, I’d love to see her reaction.

I think I’d like Denise to win, or the Rachel Riley two - at least they’re entertaining.

Pete & Sam are such a odd/opposites couple it's funny.

Now GC are out, wonder who they'll go for next.

Would like the girl playing Big Narstie to win, liked how she stuck to her guns yesterday and I think winning would mean lots to her given that her sister died recently from cancer.

Non celeb version starts on 16th. Twitter has pics of the contestants.

Yes @Grenlei I spotted they put 'would of' as well and I really thought someone 'would have' picked up on that! I think a grammatical error will be their downfall, or referring to themselves as 'we', but otherwise they're playing a blinder and they're very entertaining as well, I would like them to win.

I hope Nadia and Kaye visit Denise. I think they've been very entertaining and from a viewers point of view I would have preferred Saffron to go as she doesn't seem to add anything to the show. I think the other contestants (except Big Narstie) feel very protective over her though and that's keeping her in.

Will someone replace GC do you think? Is there any point of it is only going on for a few more days? Who will be next out I wonder... I don't think Big Narstie has done him/herself any favours by being so stubborn in the last blocking and going after Saffron who is very popular inside the circle Confused

Not even sure why Saffron is so popular and why more people aren't talking to William - they must cut so much out!!

Video intros for the non-celeb version... although does being a Gladiator count as a celebrity?

Obviously whatever Saffron is taking about to the others is not interesting or entertaining enough to make the final edit. She seems really genuine and a lovely person and everyone is on the hunt for catfish so she's not in the firing line. She might make it all the way by being just a nice, sweet person and not ruffling any feathers and fair play to her if she does I suppose.

Do you think everyone is just a little intimidated by Will. I. Am? If anyone actually had a proper conversation with him I don't think it would take long to figure out he's a catfish, but everyone is too afraid to in case it is really him.

Saffron was really great on Strictly, was really rooting for her.

I didn't consider that about William but makes so much sense!

I think they all want to believe they are in there with Will-I-Am and are a bit star struck.
Charlotte is doing an amazing job being Peter Andre, no one seems to doubt it's him yet.

No Circle UK tonight so I’m binge watching Circle USA

Loving how they keep showing all the big USA city and beach shots and talking about the apartments and it being beach season

We all know they are sat in some flats in Salford 😂😂

That's so strange, isn't it?

I didn't even feel the 'Americans' were completely real. I had the feeling the production staff had simply rounded up some American would-be actors and given them a few weeks respite from their waitressing / courier jobs in Clapham ...

It’s just really strange as is the 80's pop they play each episode

I used to wave at Woody twice a day when I used to pass when having to work in an office !

The mismatch now is strange. Am still loving it though

I love Nadia and kay. They live opposite ends of the country and have treated it like a besties holiday, chilling in the flat Grin

I don’t know why but this reality show, above all others (BB, I’m a celeb, love island) brings me so much joy. I think it’s because there are no nasty confrontations and there is a real emphasis on having fun eg the dance nights, playing games, wise cracks, falling over, silly costumes. The fact that everyone is up for a laugh just means I love this programme. I really love Lady Leshurr, her playing Big Narstie has been brilliant. But, I’d be happy for anyone of them to win. Do we know how long ago the series was filmed?

The stuff about Rachel’s baby will tell us.

They said the baby was seven months and “will be 1 in December”. The actual maths is escaping me right now.

Tianatiers · 14/03/2021 18:46

I've got the idea that it was filmed last November in my head for some reason. I think Pete and Sam were going to say Rachel's baby was seven months old and then realised she must be older and ended up saying she's 1 in December.

Bloody cliffhangers.

Denise is taking it all a bit seriously now.

Rollergirl11 · 14/03/2021 23:02

That was good! So I think Denise will go for Kim, who do you think Rachel will go for? Will I.Am maybe? Or Pete because they think Denise has an allegiance with him?

bonfireheart · 14/03/2021 23:31

Someone needs to remind Denise it's a fun show for charity.
Think the boys will go for Big Narstie. If Big Narstie and William go that will be disappointing because they're more entertaining than Saffron, Kim and Peter.

I wondered if the boys might go for Pete, to get the more popular man out. Knowing William and Narstie will go soon enough.

I’m enjoying this more than I thought I would.
And have binged Series 2, in anticipation of Series 3!
Not feeling Saffron, find her a bit dull.
I quite like Denise’s 😺🐠 vibes.
Loved that Charlotte / Peter queried the 🐠 emoji 😂
Charlotte’s doing better than I expected. As are Pete / Sam as Rachel.

Can't believe it's the final tonight, this celeb version could definitely do with being longer!

Is it really the final tonight? Surely there’s still too many of them in there!
