Someone posted this over at Bother's Bar - there are some spoilers about the amounts won, but apparently the names have been changed for the shows that haven't been aired yet.

Dan, thanks for posting that link, an extremely interesting and revealing read.

I've always wondered how contestants take Noel's silly comments about being sad looking or whatever, and it sort of confirmed for me that some do not like it... I don't think Noel should say to people "you look like a funeral director" or whatever... I mean, people could look unhappy for a number of reasons... and in the case of the bloke mentioned in the article, it was just because he wasn't smiling a lot... well, so what? I don't smile all the time... it doesn't mean I'm not happy. It's like when a certain teacher at my school often used to say to me, "You're a bit quiet today!" in a silly tone... and he only did it because he knew that I'm quite a quiet and shy person in certain circumstances.

I also find it rather shocking that Noel gets a daily report of everything that goes on in the hotel, I know Endemol do Big Brother, but I didn't realise there was an element of Big Brother in all of their shows!

I also find it interesting how one of the female contestants was rightly moaning about the fire alarms going off, then when the motivational bloke Jim walked over, she quickly added "Oh, but you have to see the funny side of it" - I wonder what would've happened if Jim had heard her being negative... :?

What's this about us being used for research? I was on holiday when that thread Dan posted about was set up, and I seem to have missed it when I got back.

So it looks like the games referred to in the article are going to be shown late next week. Anyone played "match the false name to the current player"? Quite difficult actually! :-D

Jon Ronson appears to have joined us here and asked questions about what systems different contestants used.... Tom's right we should charge him next time!! ;) :lol:

I'm guessing you were thinking of the games Suezan saw, which I think are shown a week or so later!

You're right Power5, but I'm not sure when Jon was at the DOND studios... I know Suez was there on Wed 5 Oct, I think.

Well the article refers to him being there for the anniversary show. So the ones to be shown end of next week, or start of the new recording series.

Looks like Nalini has psychic powers then. I wonder who these contestants with name changes are?
