£35 each to meet and greet a Gladiator at the NEC experience, plus the actual entrance tickets!
Does anyone know if they’ll do another tour with meet and greets?

Well they definitely slowed the travelator down when we were at the filming so it doesn't surprise me that they would tweak the rules or ask the gladiators to go easy! It's boring when the gladiators floor the contestants in the first five seconds.

I saw this, think the queues will be horrific though as it’s just first come first served on the day from 10am and they recommend arriving early. I don’t want to go, queue and then get turned away 😭

I thought Diamonds hair was going to get caught under the wall on Everest. Not a good episode for her. What’s the injury does anyone know?

Oh that is an interesting statement isn’t it? Come on Giant- just spill the tea!

I have noticed on his instagram that he has really shrunk down in size which is fine so I wonder if he doesn’t want to bulk up again and that was his gladiator USP so they have fired him?

I think he said he wanted to get leaner for his health. Although some have said he may have been doing steroids previously. Who knows

I suspect legend was only at one maybe two recordings and they insert different scenes into extra episodes.


We've seen before they have a pick and mix approach to editing!

That’s true and we would probably not know as everyone wears the same outfit, hair style etc for a good chunk of the episodes recoded!

One of the finalists seems quite affluent- can’t remember but reminds us all she went to Cambridge etc, whoever that is I want the other women to win. I see not mind which man wins as I find them both nice enough

Unsure if this has been discussed but does anyone know the deal with Viper - Quang Luong, whose DOB on Wikipedia is 1989 but he apparently played a gangster in Die Another Day in 2002 . So was he 13 in the film?

It doesn’t mention him appearing in Die Another Day on either his Wikipedia or on IMDB but it does mention on the website linked below that he appeared as a soldier in a James Bond film (but it doesn’t say which one) “…he's often been cast in films in powerful roles, even appearing in a James Bond film as a soldier”.

Where have you heard mention of him playing a gangster in Die Another Day?

We went last year, ours said 'arrive no later than 8.45', we got there at 6.45 and the queue was already very long. We did get in though but I think they closed the queue not many after us

Hang on, are you saying that just because you get tickets, you won’t necessarily get in??

I have got some but it is a 90 minute drive to Sheffield which is a long way to drive to not actually get in.

I wonder how they pick which gladiators do which events. Like you said @LittleMissMuffet - in the old days some of them were untouchable - but that was probably a bit unfair and could skew the results. I wouldn’t be opposed to the idea of a random pic shown on camera.
