I like them both, in particular Carol, but I do think Lisa deserved to win!

Carol's drink seemed to be sat directly on the line rather than being underneath and Lisa drank it all which should have been taken into account.

I'm starting to feel sorry for Lisa. Last in the public vote for leader, last to be picked as part of a team and barely shown on highlights

They were too scared not to give it to vorderman as she would have gone into meltdown ...early days yet

Agreed, it was obvious Lisa won that challenge though it wouldn't of made much of a difference to the overall result unless the final challenge if Martin had of won would of been a winner takes all situation as he was close to winning Danny though that wasn't actually stated. Lisa though can justifiably feel cheated in that game though.

It looked so clearly Lisa's win! I've never been so frustrated at a drinking competition and i've been involved in plenty.

I think the blue team were unlucky and Lisa should have stopped when she got to the line, she would have definitely won then as she had time to drink it all.

Absolutely agree with this.

You can rest assured for that half a minute while they "watched it back" there was a swift discussion among the people pulling the strings of this nature.

The fluid was not below the line.

I thought Lisa won that as well and it would have made a difference if Danny had started 2 notches higher he would have lost the last challenge

It looked to me as if Carol was spilling as much as she drunk of the last one. I would have liked them to have given Lisa the win just to see Carol's reaction.

No it was clearly Carol's, at the end of the day they said first below the line and Carol's got hers below the line first and on the table. Rules are rules.

Lisa drunk more, but she didn't put the glass down in time. So Carol did win.

That's the issue - below the line and on the table. Poor Lisa drunk the lot when she didn't need to.

Yeah, Carol won. I was rooting for Lisa though. Then again, she hasn't had it bad, despite being picked last:

She's not with Clooney now though. And I don't know if she is happily settled down.

I like them both , but Carol clearly won, she drank to just below the line and put her glass down first. If Lisa hadn't drank more than she needed to I think she might have won

Oh, I know. It just proves no one is winning all the time.

But Lisa drank all of hers, while Carol was still drinking hers, so Carol couldn't have won. Carol then placed her glass on the table had another look at the drink, saw it wasn't below the line and drank some more, while Lisa was just standing the looking on.

Only way Carol could have won is that she didn't drink to the bottom of the glass. So what were the real rules!

You are wrong, Carol drank hers and sat it down while Lisa was still drinking, she never picked it back up and drank more while Lisa looked on.

The rules were clear as day, you had to drink it below the yellow line and first to do that wins, which Carol did.

Watched this clip twice.
Didn't look like Carol's drink was below the line to me.
But then I wasn't in the production team with the benefit of , presumably, their close-ups.

It was just very stupidly designed. All three drinks should have been drink it all. What the hell was the point of the last inch on the third drink staying in the glass?

If it was drink all three, Lisa clearly won. But it wasn't. It was drink to below the line. Even at that, Lisa probably did THAT first; but she didn't drop the glass so there was no way of knowing! Idiot task organisers!

I would say that was pretty equal as well actually, she might not have spilled much of the last drink but certainly spilled loads from the second glass.
