Pretty good way to end the series. The live task was good, as was the first task.

Knew that Joanne was being disqualified from the first task when she dropped the tasks in the shed.

Those game shows were something else and I hope both never get greenlit.

Hug your friend was a good callback to an earlier episode.

But Nick guessing his final score was pretty darn amazing. Wonder how many installments it will take for Greg to pay of that £300.

Nick's a magician, though, and he did all the usual magician tricks like signing the envelope. I suspect shenanigans, perhaps the crew being in on it.

It's always sad when a series ends, and they seem to go by so fast. I do always look forward to seeing how the next cast will do, though.

I'm just annoyed that Rhys James isn't on it yet!

Really enjoyed this series. My only quibble is it felt like Steve Pemberton & John Robins were playing to win, versus the rest of the cast who were there to have fun. It didn’t "ruin the game" or anything, but I was certainly more entertained by the antics of Sophie, Nick, and Joanne.

Excited to see who they grab for the next series. Also curious to see how the show progresses now that the "meta" is more common knowledge - "look under the table", "check the room", etc. I don't envy the task writer lol
