I think this is my favourite behind the scenes show on reality tv. I love the panel and the different opinions.

Caroline flack is gawjuss (i cant spell it properly)
I love russel kanes 2 minute round up its hillarious, other then that im not sure what he is doing on the show. And Joe always makes good contributions.

After a downward spiral when Mark Durden Smith left it finally picked up last year and long may it continue. Any other fans?>

    I can't stand Russell Kane. I'd enjoy the show more if he wasn't on it but I must be in the minority as he's still there.

    I've watched it, was good. Lembit was out of order for slapping Russel. I love Russel I think he is very funny. It was childish of Lembit to slap him. Pathetic behaviour.

    Yeah I agree with you I still miss Mark though, but the line up they have now is great.

    Lembit wasn't quite the naive, sweet simpleton he was when he was still in there and after votes was he?

    Whudda thunk it a Lib Dem being false to win votes.

    100% agree, can't stand Russell, but love everyone else!
    (even Joe, who a lot of posters on here find irritating, lol, but then I often find myself swimming against the tide on here!)

    Was warming to Lembit until he felt he needed to slap Russell.

    Gone right off him now.

    It was a comedy slap though. Anyway I enjoyed the ITV2 show. Nice atmosphere. Russel's Stacey impression made me laugh.

    Enjoy the show. Think Caroline Flack does an excellent job of keeping order. I like Joe, although sometimes I have difficulty understanding his accent.
    Russell is clever but relies too much on k**b jokes.
    Must admit he looked very sheepish indeed when Lembit confronted him. Talking of Lembit, is this a new man !! Since he came out , full of bravado and wit ( ?! ). Felt a bit queasy when he was all over his girlfriend. Is she Eastern European by any chance ??;)

    They got the wrong Russell but apart from that it's a good show.

    Russel Kane could possibly be the least funniest person on the planet.

    I like the show, but it is pretty flawed. Caroline Flack maybe gorgeous, but she's pretty shite at presenting. Russell Kane's "comedy" bits are all the same, he's now repeating the same act every night (and it wasn't that funny in the first place). Joe Swash is pretty annoying as well.

    I think this show worked best with the Durd Meister presenting it, but I gather he didn't want to spend so much time abroad? Not sure..

    Excellent post and it expresses my views too

    Think Caroline will be the new Davina McCall in time - she is very good
    Joe is likeable
    Guests are mixed but not sure why they had that awful Nicola again this year who in the jungle was constantly going on about her boob job & their birthday ugh!
    Russell is a clever guy & some of his impressions are good but he thinks he has to be constantly crude to be funny & cant stop pulling his trousers up & checking his flies! Also stands very strangely.

    Caroline Flack always looks like a doll that's been dressed by a 3 year old. Does she never look in a mirror?

    I agree that this is one of the better NOW! shows.

    Caroline Flack holds it together well but she does present like automatic gunfire. Her style is still a bit 'kids TV' and she has problems saying the word 'tomorrow' - always prounouncing it temerrow - listen to her next time she says it - I'm intrigued by her accent.

    Joe Swash is quite good value - like a big puppy and I do enjoy the behind the scenes segments and watching him trying out the trials.

    Russell Kane is clearly a very bright and talented comedy writer - but as others have said he relies a little bit too much on crude body part type humour. He's a good mimic though and some of his contributions have been laugh-out-loud funny.

    All in all pretty entertaining as a supplement to the main show.

    Caroline Flack has no personality.

    Joe Swash is a C**t

    I can't stand Russell either - I find his "round-up" totally and utterly unfunny. I turn over or mute him when he's on.

    Caroline Flack: Yes she is gorgeous, but the same old putdowns of Joe Swash got tiring on day 2 of the show.

    Russell Kane: Extemely not funny and should be banned from TV. He's a Russell Brand wannabe, which is never a good thing.

    Joe Swash: At least he does the tasks and is laugh a minute.

    The panelist has been more celebrity than those put in the jungle. People like Scott Mills, Neil Morrisey, Jack Osbourne etc are more famous than the likes of Alison Hammond.
