    That would be sure to make them sick.

    That was the least interesting episode yet.
    We need water
    Nobody does anything
    We really need water.
    Nothing!

    The women are just strange, they must have some kind of different wiring in their brain or something. Why throw away a can when boiling water will sterilise it? After giving it a good wash to rid it of the smell of course. Most of them don't seem to have their priority right.

    Yes I'm sorry but what started of so promising is now so heavily scripted its become a bit of a joke.

    They clearly did not want it to end early so they helped them go the distance starting with giving them the fire starter.

    Doing this compromised the integrity of the programme, the idea of which was for them to survive without outside help once on the island.

    I have little doubt that they were helped in many other ways some questionable areas being the can,the fishing boat, giving them water /food when the Doctors visit?

    I guess they really could not believe how poor the girls would be.

    Still entertaining but could have been so much better

    Their obsession with sun baking and not covering their skin to protect it whilst being dehydrated was truly flabbergasting!

    I've never understood why people enjoy baking in the sun full stop, let alone in such a critical situation.

    The last 15 minutes of that episode was absolutely ridiculous. The sparkling clean jerry can and yet another 'lucky' food discovery was bad enough, but having some random bloke turn up on a boat and hand over a fish is just taking the piss out of the viewers.

    Its also very odd that they say they were all on the verge of starving with the pigs saving them.

    Yet the vegie did not eat any and she looks one of the most healthy ones there yet they have hardly mentioned how she is surviving. Surely that would make an interesting part of the programme? which makes me think they are giving her food.

    If she can survive not eating meat why cant the rest?

    I agree. What a setup. Fishing boat, clean water, and carbs just in the nick of time. What next for the ladies...washed up suncream lotion?

    Still no mention of what the veggie is eating. She's a walking miracle.

    I was coming on here to post the same thing. She's surviving and I wonder what's she eating and how many calories she's having. Why cant they all go on a vegetarian diet for their time on the island?

    It can't be that much of a 'remote desert island' if a small fishing boat happened to just sail past...

    that sounds oddly creepy the way you wrote that!! :p

    Wouldn't shock me if you see a periscope every so often pop up with a mini submarine with Bear in it.

    The locations have been posted on here before, more than once Pearl Islands off Panama, Isla San Telmo, Isla Gabrizon or similar(ish), one of them is up for sale.

    You've been able to see Bears Island throughout the whole program.
