I'm worried with the title of the other thread and whether it contains spoilers from live stream. Not everyone wants spoilers. And this year, one of the few good things, we don't seem to be missing a show at the end, so no week long wait.

Anyway, first decent twist I thought with the backstabbing of Shane. This season desperately needed a twist as it has been predictable for weeks now. Still way too much Dan and the presenter bigging him up on the HLs. Talk about his books, lol. But I suspect a lot of the American audience don't even see that as arrogance. And the shouting in the DR.

Before that yet another memory competition, the producers have been really cheap this season. Happy Ian made it to the final 3, hopefully either of them can win the final HoH and see sense and get Dan out. I'd trust Ian to do that more than Danielle though.

And one thing I've been meaning to say for a while, that advert break before the final few seconds is so completely pointless in these live shows.

Dan backstabbing Shane wasn't much of a twist though was it? At least from the viewers perspective, since it was all Dan would talk/shout about in the DR. Loved Danielle's reaction though, serves her right for being such a daft bint.

Best final 4 eviction since Janelle evicted Dr Will.

It was a twist to nearly everyone in the house at least, so in that sense it shook things up. The newbies really are idiots though, much more than last year I think.

Yep at least last year we had Kalia and Shelly who would have seen through Dan for sure and tried to get him out.

The last few weeks have been predictable? This has been one of the best second half of a season ever. Constant power shifts and people getting blindsided either on to the block or voted out.

I agree, but there was a very long dull patch mid-season!

I also thought this twist was a bit more logical than the others as Shane has always been seen as a big threat in the game. Other shifts have left me a lot more puzzled and unsatisfied through watching the HLs.

I don't think people give Danelle enough credit ,i'm pretty sure she knows Dan by now and knew what he would do,it dirtys Dans hand's and is good for Danelle ,she must have thought it through .

She has been putting far too much trust in Dan, ultimately he thinks he can win in a final two with her.

Shane would have taken her to the end, so not actually so good for Danielle.

Her idolising of Dan shows that this whole coaches twist has weakened the newbies, it seems better how they did it last year.

Not sure, she would lose to Shane in the final two but could beat Dan I think.

I'm not sure she could win against anyone. She has basically gone along with Dan the whole way.
