The tasks with crocodiles always seem a bit "meh" to me, even the dimmest people they have on there know that there's no chance in hell that they'd let an unrestrained crocodile in the same space as them.

Absolutely no entertainment at all, and I'm not looking forward to the trials if the camp is just going to pick David for every trial...

I wanted Charlie to do it really...
Agreed, and its about time Charlie did something!!!

True. Eric first though as dropping off after shouting at everyone to get up is about his limit of activity.

When David refused to sleep with the bugs he was labelled a scaredy cat and a wuss, now that he is showing mettle in the trials, he's labelled dull and boring. Make your minds up.

Me too.

I noticed how Charlie made a point of asking 'how awful was the first room?' I bet she wouldn't have lasted more than three minutes herself.

From the editor's point of view Rosemary would have been the better choice. Helen was too frightened, David wasn't frightened at all.

Did anyone? I thought most people expected him to go quite far in the show - he should be in the top5 for sure. He's like superman though...everyones expectations are so high, the camp are disappointed when he looses one star!
he was getting loads of hate the first few days in. I guess when you are a former heavyweight champ people expect you to be able to get past a few creepy crawleys

I hope its Charlie and if she gets 6 out of 6 stars I may change my opinion of her. Otherwise ... if she goes on to win ... she's had the easiest ride of any other winner to date.

Well, she needs airtime so people can either vote for her because they enjoy watching her (her exposure on week one isn't cutting it in week three imo) or have genuine reasons for not liking her.

Noone seems to want to do one except David, Hugo and Ashley who have put themselves foward most of the time.
I like Charlie but I've only seen her put herself up once. Eric and Rosemary havent put themselves up for one.
I'd like to see Charlie do one.

I agree, I was dissapointed too.

It's not fun when they just breeze through the trials.

I don't want Eric to do a trial because it guarantees him safe for another day...

She talks the talk alright ... but she's been poor every time she's had a shot at it.

If David had been fazed we'd have another "scaredy cat" thread.

The man is disciplined in mind and body. Can anyone imagine getting in a boxing ring with a Klitchko?

Its not that HE is dull and boring but I get what people mean, seeing him do a task is a little boring because everybody knows he's going to get all the stars rather than panic and scream like a girl. He can not be defeated, apart from that room with raw meat -although Im suspcious that they decided not to put a star in there to shake things up.

He did well in the trial, I liked one where the contestant just breezes through with no problem at all.

But it lacked tension - bit like he was looking for his car keys. Now when he did the airplane one, that good to watch even though we all knew he'd walk it - not sure I can explain why though

I thought the reason she asked that was so that she could slag Helen off again.

No-one wanted to do the trial so cannot blame David! Charlie, Eric and Rosemary need to step up to the plate though!

That's why it was a surprisingly entertaining. His attitude, "just hand me the stars, this is like kids playground" was so different. If he did this every week, it would become boring.

And, I thought Charlie's comment was because she wanted to undermine Helen.
