Love all of the newbies each week - it really is the nicest thread on DS - but then I am biased!!! xxx”

I would not be surprised if some of the people involved in the programme, past and present, find it useful if they are not at the recording themselves.

lol - I think it's hilarious because none of our sources are on the production team - all are audience members

so there is absolutely nothing they can do, short of locking them up until after the results show is broadcast, & I'm sure someone would manage to get it out anyways

BIB: I'd love to join the niceness of the spoiler thread, but I am one of the weird people who like to watch the results show unspoiled. I know it's not live but I enjoy the suspense.

I am sure but I was thinking of people not at the recording curious to know the names of those eliminated and not wanting to pester colleagues or ex-colleagues.
