I'm still in shock from last night's grand finale. The show eased us in with the Red Team (mother and daughter voted off in the first week) who looked great. Yes, well done. Then it was on to the Orange Team - Joanne and Paul were billed as lazy ones throughout the first couple of episodes. [...]
It's every man and woman for themselves in the final week, and this week we're in Cyprus. Only the three biggest losers will go through from the end of this programme. It's tense - will it be Wil? Can Karen do it? Maybe Paddy will have a Paddy? I'm all out of puns, let's get [...]
I have a confession to make. In preparation for last night’s Biggest Loser I ate only apples and nuts. They were, however, both covered in chocolate, as it was Valentine’s Day so Richard has said I can continue in my role of blogger for the Black and Blue teams.Let’s get to it then. So, Richard [...]
I can barely contain my excitement about next week’s show long enough to discuss last night’s, but here goes. From the off we were teased with new footage in the opening titles. As well as contestants that we’ve loved and lost (remember Big G? I wonder if he’s still Big G or maybe now he’s [...]

It's always wise to warm-up properly before exercise, and I extend this rule to watching exercise. So before I settled down to watch The Biggest Loser last night, I did some light dynamic stretching with an old episode of Frasier. The episode 'Frasier lite' sees the team at KACL (Frasier's radio station) competing in a [...]
The show started with Angie proclaiming that 'Week two is the hardest week'. I'm sensing that either Angie or Richard will start each week's show with a statement similar to this. Maybe Week Three will be the hardest to burn calories but Week Four will be the hardest to get motivated and Week Five is [...]
Bums were well and truly on seats last night for the first in the series of The Biggest Loser UK. Lazy boy was skeptical at first muttering something about 'exploitation', but the tried and tested reality TV format sucked him in and by somewhere around the second advert break he was well and truly hooked.With [...]
The Biggest Loser returns to our screens next Monday and I for one cannot wait! Not least because the lovely Davina McCall will be presenting it. I got into this show quite late last time round because, not having Sky, I hadn't seen the previous series. What I like about it is that is shows [...]
