Please, pack it in.

[Kaz]

That bad, was it? Was it shouty and enjoyable bad, or just rubbishy bad?

[debih]

I quite enjoyed it. I don't know how long it is and I doubt I'll make it through to the end iwithou getting too shouty.

It's people watching from he comfort of my armchair.

[Kaz]

Might be worth a go then

[Workingman]

Well spotted, Debs. I was shouty mid way through the first programme.

I will be apoplectic by episode three, and nuclear thereafter.

Except for two of them the rest are of a mind-set and in a similar age band.

So let's see. You have the chance to start all over again and one of your first priorities is .... a sort of sauna come stress tent.

The sauna thing made me laugh. Much more important to use your resources in that than sorting out a shelter for the winter.

And the yoga girl! Her new life meant doing no work and just chilling on the beach. Then she decided that she would be better off somewhere else and was obviously contemplating leaving. Until the chef caught her eye!

They all seem a right bunch of numpties although so far I quite like the chef (despite his shacking up with yoga girl), Raphael the builder and the rogue one - the one that's moving t'other side!

It reminds me if Castaway - do you remember that? The first ever "reality" style show based on Taransay that launched the career of The Luscious Mr Fogle.

[Kaz]

I remember Castaway! That seems a long time ago now

[Workingman]

Raphael the builder and the rogue one - the one that's moving t'other side!

Antoin.

The only two with anything going on between their ears.

I feel sorry for Rafa because he is a doer not a thinker. He needs a sidekick to give him instructions: "Rafa, we need a shed, 3m x 4m, pitched roof and a double door on this side" and Rafa would be in his element.

Unfortunately it would never enter his head to say: "Guys, we need a shed ..."

I predict this series will get a cult following.... of a lot of shouty people.

I looked forward to watching it but it's a bit boring
Why don't they do something about all those goats eating everything
I think there are to many young people trying to make a point
Bring b back castaways and Ben fogle. (Sigh)
