This is my house

I thought Fern 2 before they even opened their mouths.
Anyone else watching?

Totally bonkers programme but it was different and completely refreshing to just switch off the brain and enjoy TV

i enjoyed it,
and thought 2 or 4 but at the very end thought 1.

it was funny

Fern 3 was a rubbish actress. Obvious from the start it was Fern 2. I did enjoy it though as a bit of daft distraction.

All the actors were terrible!!

I watched it with a sort of horrified fascination. Ferns 1 and 3 were so, so, so obviously actors and it was obvious that it was going to be Fern 2, but I kind of wanted it to be Fern 4. It really did not come across as typical BBC1 prime time, though - as a pp said, it was more daytime fare. I doubt I'd watch again unless the panel changed and there was someone worth watching on there.

Superb review in the Guardian....and now I want a chocolate potato cake

i am not a stacey dooley fan but she came across really well

This was so bad it was good, I absolutely loved it just for its weirdness and the fact that it's only £1,000 prize money but so much effort! It had us cracked up, especially the bit at the end with them both rolling out of bed.

It was so obviously Fern 2 right from the start, as others have said, hopefully next week will be a bit less obvious. Was a bit strange that the celebs just gave the prize to who they wanted it to go to and not who they really thought it was. I'm pretty confident I'll be able to spot the real homeowner each week but will be interesting to see if I'm right

I said as soon as we saw them that is was Fern 2’s house.

The program was too long, 30 mins would have been ok.

Fern 3 was too young and studenty to live in a house like that.

Fern 1, was she really American or was she putting on the accent? I’m not sure but she really didn’t have a clue what she was talking about.

No was was Fern 4 a gay man.

Not sure that I’ll bother with it again.

Oh and why does Stacey wear her hair tucked inside her collar? Looks ridiculous especially as she has lovely hair.

@FoonySpucker - 'this chocolate potato cake of a show...'

@spiderlight

I had never heard of chocolate potato cake before reading that review, but spookily on the Hairy Bikers Route 66 episode last night they made a sweet potato chocolate brownie thing which looked delicious.

Who knew?

I might just have to give that a go over the holidays. It would count as one of our five-a-day, right?

I double checked re the 5 a day as I know potatoes don't count....but sweet potatoes do - yay!

When fern2 licked the sofa 🤣

The Goggleboxers all knew it was no. 2 as well. I might just have to watch it next week, just once more to see if it’s quite as obvious.

@Toughie

I only switched on because of Bill Bailey. Bet he’s regretting this bollocks.

This ^

DH has just made me watch this. He read the Guardian review and chose this as our Saturday night viewing.

He's 54 with a PhD. He has never watched anything like this before in his life I don't think he will again.

That was shit. I'll be tuning in next week.

Fern 4 is back in the next episode

Will it be different judges then? Otherwise they are going to recognise him.

Fern2 was a pot calling the kettle black when it came to calling Fern1 a bitch, I couldn't stand either of them.

Wtf, Fern 4 is back in the next episode?! Surely not, how's that going to work, are all the contestants going to have to have names that could be both male and female each episode?

Anyone going to watch this evening, episode 2?!

Dear lord what utter tripe. I watched the last ten minutes last week and was astounded that it was on prime time BBC1. And it’s on every week.

I'll be watching. It was hilarious last week. I guessed straight away, bu enjoyed the actors making fools of themselves.
