Title: Total Wipeout
Post by: Matt.NFFC. on July 04, 2009, 08:46:16 PM
Anyone see this new programme thats just been on the Beeb.

Absolutely fantastic!!! It's a sort of Takeshi's Castle It's a knockout mix but is brutally hard and dangerous!

Great viewing IMO

kids love it think it's pretty much a tired format (after watching Takeshi's castle for years)

It's filmed in Argentina and you get a week out there whilst filming.

I know someone who was on the first series.  She went for an interview.  I say interview, I don't think there's that much of a selection process.

I reckon two categories.

Are you fit, and people will want to look at you, potentially wet and covered in mud ?

Are you clearly unfit, and people will want to laugh at you, potentially wet and covered in mud ?

Probably second category.  She only went on it because she was told Richard Hammond was presenting it.

She never mentioned it, but I think she was pretty devastated that Richard records his bit afterwards from the UK.

We've recently discovered this, really does make me laugh, love it.  Not sure it should be as funny as it is, but it's brilliant.

Total Wipeout seems a bit tame to me. All these rubber obstacles and if you fail it's just water. Also lol @ people actually trying to get over those red balls. Surely quicker to dive in the water and quickly swim to the ladder?

Takeshi's Castle is awesome :)
