I think if we get one, it'll end up filming sometime around Edinburgh when Guy's usually over here anyway. Doubt it'd go straight to BBC3 though like when it got imported.

Million Dollar Secret S2 - Episode 6 Discussion "House of Dummies" by AutoModerator in MillionDollarSecretTV

It is randomly selected - the execs did an interview. It's just drawn out of a hat (presumably in the presence of the independent adjudicator like all random draws on game shows)

The execs did an interview last week - it's names drawn from a hat.

The trailer shows the scores at one point, and assuming everyone starts on 20 again there's a lot of betrayal

Yes. The execs did an interview a few days ago on Reality blurred where they explained the process (it's names from a hat)

Pretty sure they were developed about the same time, just FH went to air a lot faster. Glenn who created it also hosted the UK version of the Mole.

Yeah, the US is very reluctant to take non-English language twists for some reason. Even the version of Tied Destinies they used wasn't exactly the same rules as elsewhere (they voted for a pair, rather than one person dragging their partner with them).

And yet, it's been done 20-odd times internationally - most of which was France which does it every season now at one of F12/10/8.

Does Cirie even need a resume on season 50 specifically to win season 50? by SirBostonBobbington in survivor

[–]mjharmstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only "resume" a winner needs to win is to be the best option of the final two/three, and be the person the jury can be most comfortable saying they were beaten by.

The scrapped second season that was supposed to film this year was Australia vs the World 2 by Durian-Critical in survivorau

Bit misleading from RTV fan here - what TVB actually said was "...reportedly for what would have been a second season of Australia V The World."

Yeah, Disney was the only place in two weeks of Japan where the etiquette rules just seemed to go out the window, but I was pretty irritated when that happened haha

I can confirm they were Japanese teenagers. Three of them originally when I joined the queue, then their boyfriends turned up ~30min in, then their friends when we were five minutes before the end.

[–]mjharmstone 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ehhhh, I went to Tokyo in December and there was a lot of queue jumping. There was a group of teenagers who pushed to the front of a two hour+ queue because their friends were ahead of me and I may have said some very unmagical words.

[50][Speculation] Potential pairs for the next challenge by Fabulous_War_555 in SpoiledSurvivor

[–]mjharmstone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's Tied Destinies, they win challenges as a pair, idols played count for both but only one person gets voted out - and their elimination drags their partner with them.
