Trivia
Greg awards Josh Widdicombe a bonus point for his good humor after discovering he was the only contestant asked to perform the bean counting task. This gesture has unexpected repercussions at the end of the series when Josh wins the series championship, beating Frank Skinner and Romesh Ranganathan by one point. In a podcast interview Widdicombe stated that in the original audio from the final episode one of the other contestants can be heard saying "F---ing bean point!"

Decent episode but complete spoils another movie

The episode itself was fine and has built up was the previous episodes of the series have been all about.

However I take umbrage to any TV show or indeed movie that thinks it's OK to spoil a completely unrelated movie for absolutely no reason. We can't all have watched every other movie, I watch this show for fun, not to have other movies spoiler. And for that it's an instant 1 for me.
