I miss them

They're not going to be back.

I've got used to them not being there..it would be odd if they came back.

I only enjoyed them due to some of the people who couldn't open the box very well or when Noel got some person in the audience who didn't have a clue. Also some of the contestant voiceovers for the competition were funny/weird.

No, just no.

I don't think they should bring any of those competitions back because many TV phone in competitions have ripped off way too many people this year. It was good thing in the past but I think we all need to move on in life. Seriously. (Especially gameshows.) So basically I think the show itself is fine the way it is now and C4/Edenmol shouldn't bring back any phone in "con-petitions" at all.

That's my honest opinion.

I have really missed the players doing the speeches. I reckon some Season 3 players would have done great ones, such as Daniel (2), Denis, Planet Joan, JC, Little Rich and a few others!!

It was odd watching some old episodes recently, I know it's not been long since they went but it was a bit of a jolt to see the old LTL bits back again. I'd got used to the end of the show just being, well, the end of the show, so for Noel to then walk up the steps made me think "Eh? What's he d...oh yeah".

One nice thing about being a box opener was that you were right next to all the contestants as they all did their group hug thing at the end of the show, which means you could say hi to them and wish them good luck. It was fun while it lasted but with all the scandals wreaking so much havoc I doubt will ever see it back. But hey, less LTL means more DOND and more contestant banter included in the edit!

yes James we did do the voice overs and was really excited at wanting to hear them..was a bit gutted not to hear them..but have to agree on the phone ins for any show..I just dont do it anymore as you cant trust who is right and who is wrong.

Thanks Maria - I bet you were just as gutted as the people who opened the boxes only for them never to be shown!

But they could actually have kept them in up until Ioanna's game when it got taken off altogether - especially after the first couple of weeks when it was edited in at the beginning of part 2.

Just thinking how good Clive and Orry would have sounded on it - but they'd have never done a voiceover as they didn't start until after the recording break!

ha ha yeh that would of been hilarious...yeh was there for her game..but had already recorded our voiceovers by then too...wonder what they are going to do with all them unused voice overs..would they ever use the voices from them for something else..they can edit anything these days can't they.
