FunTranscript
00:00Previously on Tempting Fortune, the 10 remaining fortune seekers continued their grueling 18-day
00:07trek through the Malaysian jungle to win whatever's left of a 300 grand fortune.
00:13To keep the money intact, they must resist spending it on tantalising temptations.
00:19This is what's going to get us through.
00:21You're weak and pathetic.
00:22That is just pure greed.
00:23Because whatever they spend comes off the group's prize pot.
00:27Four and a half grand for a Chinese?
00:30As the tough conditions got harder, Vicky called it quits.
00:34I'm going home. I can't spend other people's money.
00:37And temptation-avoider Nathaniel succumbed to a pastry in private, colluding with David not to let off.
00:44You're a vicar. Does that mean you keep it on the oath?
00:47Bad boys for life.
00:48We didn't take it. We left it. We left it.
00:50Yes, boys!
00:51The fortune seekers were split into two groups.
00:54Ah, it's a buffet!
00:55Sam's half-resisted spending...
00:58We just saved £4,500 there.
01:00...while Nathaniel's team splashed the can.
01:03Mmm.
01:04And stuffed their faces.
01:06I am surprised Nathaniel gave in to it.
01:08It made it very apparent that he's very strong, but he was all guns blazing.
01:12The ten remaining fortune seekers are just over halfway through their epic 18-day trek.
01:34For the last 19 hours, they've been split into two groups, an account just 200 metres apart.
01:43We've got a week left.
01:44One week and we'll be home.
01:46All luxuries, as in hairbrush, hot shower, deodorant.
01:52Ooh.
01:53Now if a group knows how long they'll be separated for, or have any idea about the other group's spending.
02:0118 days with nothing other than rice and beans.
02:05Mm-hm.
02:05That's the goal, mate.
02:07Not, oh, I need something big today.
02:09Yesterday, Nathaniel's group couldn't resist their first sample of mouth-watering food in nine days.
02:20And splurged £4,500 on a Chinese buffet.
02:27Ugh!
02:28After last night's Chinese, this is like a fall from grace, innit?
02:32I feel like we really came together yesterday over that Chinese buffet.
02:37Nathaniel was so adamant about not spending money, and four and a half grand gone just like that.
02:46I think that Chinese last night, it being a buffet, we had a few plates.
02:50I think that's enough to kind of sustain.
02:52What, until the end?
02:53I think so, for a week, yeah.
02:55I keep my cards close to my chest.
02:58I took that cinnamon roll when David did in secret.
03:00And because we took the Chinese buffet as a group, that's the perfect cover-up, me being a leader.
03:08I need to feed myself so I can feed the team.
03:12Yeah, after that amount of food last night, I feel good.
03:15So, being a personal trainer, I'm disciplined.
03:19I mean, look at my muscles.
03:22So, I'm not often tempted by treats, but I am tempted by necessities.
03:29If there is anything that could break me in this experience, it's probably going to be protein.
03:32I've never gone without protein bars, meat, fish, some kind of source of protein.
03:38So, I'm terrified about losing all my gains in the jungle.
03:45I can hold out for everything now.
03:47We're strong. We can do this.
03:49Definitely.
03:53As Sam's group didn't have enough votes to take the Chinese buffet, everyone missed out on the temptation.
04:01I really wish that we had a bit more takers in the group.
04:05And I wish Nathaniel was here.
04:08He's not really a temptation taker, per se.
04:13But I'm his brother, so I know the truth.
04:17Man, that guy was scuffing down that pastry like they'll know tomorrow.
04:23It's clear that food could be his kryptonite.
04:29Are you hungry?
04:30Very, very hungry, yeah.
04:31I'm actually starving today.
04:32Yeah.
04:32I'm slightly missing Tom.
04:37I was a bit gutted to see he was in the other group.
04:39I feel we've come in at a fairly similar standpoint in terms of the temptations.
04:45And I think whether we take stuff, one's, like, actions are heavily influenced than the other.
04:51So, I think we'd find it hard for one of us to take a temptation and the other one not to take it.
04:55I'd be very surprised if Tom ended up giving in to a temptation.
05:01The matches are all wet.
05:03It's going to be a challenge to, you know, set up the fire today.
05:07The basic standard of living in a camp life, it's very difficult.
05:11I'm sweaty, I'm dirty, I'm stinky.
05:14I need some oxygen and temptations are my oxygen.
05:17It's so weird, isn't it?
05:23The tiniest little things that you just don't appreciate when you're home.
05:27Being able to, like, wash my face properly.
05:29Waking up without a puffy face.
05:32Yeah.
05:32Yeah, yeah.
05:32And putting on a clean outfit.
05:34It's hard to stay positive when we are cramped in this small tent.
05:40It's like you wake up and you've got a toe in your nostril.
05:42It's like, where's the escape?
05:51This lot have been here for nearly two weeks now,
05:54and it's getting to the point where they really need a break.
05:57Mainly from each other.
05:58So we have just the ticket, a private oasis in the jungle,
06:04to enjoy some much-needed me time.
06:10This is Lankoe's prize secret.
06:13A hidden retreat floating on the tropical waters of the Andaman Sea,
06:18with 360-degree views.
06:21We can switch off from the rest of the world.
06:23This luxury overnight stay comes with an ultra-comfy king-size bed,
06:30a hot shower,
06:31ur-con,
06:32dinner served on your own private deck,
06:35and breakfast the following morning.
06:41Each campmate will leave their group to scope out the retreat individually.
06:46And if they want it, they'll have to place a bid.
06:50The highest bidder will win the retreat.
06:52But the sting in the tail,
06:55the whole group will pay for the indulgence.
07:00Oh, my God.
07:03Oh, the retreat.
07:07Wow.
07:11Oh, you fuckers, man.
07:13Look at the view.
07:17What wine have you got?
07:18I've got a Merlot.
07:19Everyone knows I love red wine, right?
07:21It does feel nice.
07:26Oh!
07:27This is ridiculous.
07:30Oh, my God.
07:34This is flesh.
07:37Ah, some more delicious food to be served.
07:40Ha, ha.
07:41Steak served with greens and chips.
07:45Face masks.
07:46Vitamin E.
07:48That's exactly what I need.
07:49Something to distress me.
07:50Oh.
07:51Oh.
07:52Oh, that feels so good.
07:54Oh, it's a proper bed.
07:56Oh.
07:57Oh, yeah.
07:58This feels good, man.
08:00Oh, my God.
08:01This is a lot.
08:02I don't even want to know how much this costs.
08:05Steak with greens and chips.
08:08Wow.
08:15Oh, my God, guys.
08:16You're making me shake now at the moment.
08:17I can't even breathe.
08:18This is The Retreat, an exclusive getaway on Langkawi.
08:23You can stay in your own private floating accommodation.
08:27Dinner will be served to enjoy on your private deck.
08:30Breakfast in bed will be served the following day, so two meals.
08:34This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity will be offered to the person who deems it most tempting.
08:42Write your price to stay in The Retreat and place it in the box.
08:48Oh.
08:49The highest bidder will stay here tonight.
08:52Oh, wow.
08:53Oh, we've got a bidding war.
08:55Oh, this is juicy.
08:58Oh, my God.
09:00Wow.
09:00Each fortune seeker can place a bid up to any amount without the others knowing.
09:07But the winning bid will be deducted from the shared prize pot.
09:10And whoever wins can choose to share it with another fortune seeker.
09:17I love this kind of thing.
09:19Everything here, you know, on your doorstep.
09:21I feel like it was placed here purely for me.
09:24Once-in-a-lifetime.
09:26Definitely.
09:26This is unbelievable.
09:28This is stunning.
09:29Breathtaking.
09:31Just a breeze alone is worth a couple of grand.
09:33It's very private, isn't it?
09:34This is your own exclusive retreat.
09:37I just want a steak and chips, mate.
09:38I wouldn't want to do this on my own.
09:39I'd have to share it with somebody.
09:41It would be nice, me and Hugo.
09:42A romantic setting as well.
09:44Thomas would love a bit of this, because he's all about that glam life.
09:49If I can spend this time with money, that would be just amazing.
09:53I know that some people want this more than me.
09:56So do I bid?
09:56Do I think about myself?
09:57Do I think about others?
09:59People are going to go mad for it.
10:00I think I'll put down, like, 100 quid.
10:03And if I was to win, I mean, it'd be a bargain.
10:08I came with the goal of not taking any temptations.
10:10I'm not putting a bid in.
10:13As beautiful as it is, it's a no from me.
10:16Oh, my God.
10:21I deserve a freaking medal for this.
10:23I'm just going to put nothing down.
10:25I had the Chinese last night.
10:26I'm trying to behave myself.
10:27It was a once in a lifetime.
10:29There's no doubt about it.
10:30And I've got a feeling it's going to really, really put the cat amongst the pigeons.
10:34But if I took another temptation now, I'd be really disappointed.
10:37Not just in myself, but I'd be disappointed in Hugo.
10:38I think I'm wanting to hold out on this one.
10:45This experience is definitely changing me.
10:48I didn't think I had this grit.
10:49And now that I've found it, I feel like I don't need to say yes to every single thing that comes my way.
10:54I think the one thing that I'm missing from home is being able to walk into the shower and turn it on.
11:02The temptations I've taken were amazing.
11:05The Haribo was a no-brainer.
11:06The cinnamon bun was the best cinnamon bun I've had in my life.
11:11But this is completely extravagant.
11:13You know, once in a lifetime experience.
11:16I think probably like £1,000.
11:19I think other than Tomas, that might be the highest bid.
11:29Ooh, this is ridiculous.
11:33Fuck, okay.
11:36I'm not very good with bidding.
11:40After sleeping in what smells like rotting tent, I need this.
11:44We're on day 10, and the tricks and, you know, the rations that have been quite challenging.
11:52I've been a team player for most of this experience.
11:55Well, it's time to put yourself first every once in a while.
11:58The Chinese was £4,500.
12:01I paid more than £4,500 for this over the Chinese, but that was a group.
12:06I'm exhausted.
12:08My hips are killing me.
12:10I'm so looking forward to that bed.
12:11I'm going to tip the scales.
12:14Oh, the tactics are coming into play.
12:16All right.
12:17I want to start it with a three, because I feel like three doesn't sound as bad as four.
12:22I'm going to say £4,000.
12:25I'm not going to go mad.
12:27I think Trish would have gone in pretty hardcore with this one.
12:31Oh, my God, I can't believe I'm writing this down.
12:33Someone's going to kill me.
12:34You know what?
12:34Changing my place.
12:36So I kind of have a couple fingers in my head.
12:39I'm an alpha.
12:40I like to be in control.
12:42I just want to win.
12:43I don't like to lose.
12:46Okay.
12:52£10,000.
12:59Let the games begin.
13:00The fortune seekers have just gone head-to-head in a bidding war to win a luxury temptation.
13:18The retreat, an overnight stay for up to two people.
13:22Now the groups are back together, let's find out who's won.
13:25Here we go.
13:28Hello.
13:28Nice.
13:29Strap in.
13:31You're the book of revelations.
13:33Yeah.
13:35Best case scenario today would be nobody bids on the retreat, and we don't affect the prize pot.
13:41But I really don't think that's going to happen.
13:43So I'm absolutely dreading the outcome of it, to be honest.
13:47The highest bid will come out of the shared prize pot, and whoever wins can choose to share it with one other person.
13:55I'm a bit nervous.
13:57I think I've put too much money.
13:58I think I'm the only one who would bids that kind of money.
14:07Unfortunately, no one from this group won the bidding for the retreat.
14:12So that means someone in the other group bid higher than us.
14:15I think we need to find out how many we've each other bid.
14:18We'll start with you, Sam.
14:20I bid £0.00.
14:21That doesn't surprise me.
14:24How much did you bid, Hugo?
14:25£0.00, because I thought, I don't want there to be any possibility that I'm taking that thing.
14:30I bid £100.00 if I was to win.
14:33That would be a bargain.
14:35Good thinking, Hannes.
14:37Dave, I put like a grand.
14:41Did you?
14:42Yeah.
14:42You put a grand?
14:44When did you put Thomas?
14:46My first initial thought was £3,000.
14:50And then I felt like, OK, guys, but I actually had the pink hotel, right?
14:58And I've reduced the price to £1,500.
15:01That shocked me.
15:03Some self-control I'm seeing here.
15:07But I just wonder how much the other group bid.
15:09Going over, like, £1,500, man, I think that's taking liberty.
15:16That's way too high.
15:19I'm just thinking, where is somebody's head at?
15:25Let's see what they've put the bid in, shall we?
15:28I am a little bit nervous.
15:30I think I may have gone a little bit OTT with the price.
15:35Are you ready?
15:36Not really.
15:37Let's see.
15:45Congratulations, Nathaniel.
15:48You have won the bidding for the retreat.
15:51Please leave camp to go and enjoy your evening.
15:54Surprised by that.
15:55Oh, my God.
15:56How much did you spend?
15:58Yeah!
15:58Because I thought I went too much.
16:01Go through, and then I'll tell you how much I spent.
16:04I bid £3,250.
16:06Oh, wow.
16:08I bid zero.
16:09Yeah?
16:09I've done quite a few temptations, so I bid zero.
16:13I think it was something like £3,698.
16:16I thought you lot were going to be bidding a bit more.
16:19Nice.
16:20Yeah.
16:20What message did you say?
16:23I put £10,000 on the table.
16:31No, you didn't.
16:33Oh, my God.
16:34I was like, maybe I've gone a bit too much.
16:37That's £6,000 over Ayers.
16:39I'm in shock.
16:42I thought, you know what?
16:43If I'm going to treat myself on here, it's going to be on this.
16:45You're going to do it on your own?
16:46This one really spoke to my soul, so I'm going to do it by myself.
16:54Get ready for Sam's roar when she returns, because that's what's going to go down.
16:58All right, I'll see you.
17:01I've reached halfway, and now I'm prepared to have a little bit of fun.
17:05I'm not going to take the piss too much, but a lot of the other members of the team have
17:08been taking temptations.
17:10I think there's still a little bit of the pot left to play with, so I believe this is the
17:15time to play with that money.
17:17Oh, he's going to be loving it with that steak, mate.
17:19Fuck me.
17:20The book of revelations, the book of shit, the beds, more like.
17:23Ten grand.
17:26Yeah, wow, I did not see that coming at all, especially not from Nathaniel, of all people.
17:33This is the biggest plot twist of the experience.
17:40If someone had just done a ridiculously high bid, I would just think they'd been a bit silly.
17:45Don't be an idiot.
17:48I just want to know who took it, because, like, thinking Marta had the temptation already,
17:52I don't think it was Marta.
17:54I'm thinking maybe, how about Tom?
17:57No, if Tom, Tom would have picked Hugo.
18:00If Amarni, like, had won, wouldn't she have chosen you to join her?
18:03Hmm.
18:04That's the thing that doesn't make sense.
18:05They said all of us are staying in camp this evening.
18:07I trust Tom and Nathaniel.
18:09I'd be very surprised if Nathaniel ended up winning it.
18:12I always believe that the harder you work is the more you deserve.
18:22I put myself in the most uncomfortable situations.
18:25I've helped others.
18:26I believe I've earned this retreat.
18:29I believe the team knows I deserve it, too.
18:32Someone who was going to sleep in here tonight, why can't it be me?
18:36The problem is, he positioned himself as the leader who was going to be extremely frugal
18:45out here, and now we've seen that actually, when no one's looking, he will go crazy.
18:54I'm just in shock.
18:55I don't get it.
18:56He's going to be loving life now, but the fact is, he may not be loving life when he comes
19:00back and realises that everyone has lost respect for him.
19:03Oh, he's definitely gone down in my estimation.
19:06He was adamant he wasn't going to spend anything, but now he could be planning on spending the
19:12whole lot.
19:12Was he planning this right from the beginning?
19:14And made us think that he's a decent guy, when actually he's a selfish git.
19:19All of the times that he's been horrified at people taking, and less than 24 hours after
19:24he did the Chinese, he's blown 10k in one night.
19:29I think he's lost his head tonight.
19:30It says a lot about trust, and me personally, I don't trust him as far as I can throw him.
19:37Nathaniel, his true colours are showing.
19:42I knew from the beginning that he was a fake, and that he was selfish, and finally, everyone
19:48else sees it too.
19:50Oh, thank you.
19:50You're too kind.
19:52I'm taking it.
19:53Oh, I've been waiting for this.
19:57I hate to see food go to waste.
20:00What kind of man would I be to waste 10k?
20:05Oh, no!
20:08Do you know what?
20:09He's literally eating it all!
20:11What, is this literally for you?
20:13Yeah, that's it.
20:13That's all it's on.
20:14Look at what your mate's done.
20:16Look what Nathaniel's left for Trish to have for dinner.
20:19He's eating it all.
20:21Why would you do that?
20:23I am in absolute shock.
20:26I'm really, really disappointed in him.
20:29And I'd like to hear why he thought it was necessary to eat all our food before he actually went and
20:34had two steak and chips.
20:35You're leaving your campmates with no food.
20:38That's not funny.
20:39That's nasty.
20:43One steak down, one to go.
20:46This tastes amazing.
20:48The chips are fluffy yet crispy on the outside.
20:50The steak is succulent.
20:52I think this is a once in a lifetime experience.
20:56I don't trust anyone in the group not to fuck that up for me, and I got two steaks in the process.
21:02Now, he's shown us that the leadership really isn't there.
21:05Because he's left Hugh hungry, and he's left Tom to sleep in a tent.
21:09Also, he's shown us that really he doesn't value the prize pot, like he said.
21:13So, I think that people are going to start spending, and I think it's just going to be one big mess now.
21:19Oh my gosh, I hate to think what the repercussions might be.
21:24Oh, there's so many pillows.
21:33This is the life.
21:35There's the retreat, where Nathaniel should be just about waking up after eating everyone's rice and beans,
21:54eating two steaks, and spending ten grand.
21:58Ten grand.
22:02Look how it's all some finds out.
22:05By taking this once in a lifetime opportunity, I don't believe there will be much more to tempt me.
22:11Well, I did say that last time, and here we are.
22:22Oh gosh, you look like you're suffering, Tom.
22:24It's just so stodgy, isn't it?
22:27I know.
22:27When you get out of here, how much do you need to be paid?
22:30If someone said, you've got to eat rice and beans, it's great for another month.
22:35Ten grand.
22:35Since the fortune seekers were split into two groups, largely thanks to Nathaniel, his team have now spent 14 and a half grand in just 40 hours.
22:48I think Nathaniel put himself as a leader, but he's just quashed that totally.
22:55As a leader, this is showing the group that if you work hard, you can play hard, and it's exactly what I'm doing now.
23:03My mum always said, watch The Quiet Ones.
23:05It's the fact that he was willing to put £10,000 on it.
23:09It's different to what anyone else has done here.
23:12It's way worse.
23:14And he might do exactly the same thing he did after the Chinese come in here going,
23:18oh, you know, now that I've had my protein, that's enough to carry me to the end.
23:21Well, you said that before, Nathaniel.
23:23You're not going to believe what he says anymore.
23:24No.
23:25I'm hoping Nathaniel's feeling guilty.
23:30Maybe he's not feeling guilty at all.
23:32Maybe he's sniggering about it.
23:34Oh, my God.
23:35When the rest of the group find out how much Nathaniel spent on the retreat, all hell's going to break loose.
23:41This was worth every penny.
23:43I'm not afraid of the group.
23:45I think there will be members that are happy for me, and the other ones will just have to wait and see what they have to say.
23:51In order to lead, in order to look after other people, you have to look after yourself.
23:55It's time for Nathaniel to take off his mask and come and face the music.
24:03Oh, my God.
24:04Oh, my God.
24:05Oh, my God.
24:06Oh, my God.
24:07Look at the state of that.
24:08I've never seen him smile before.
24:21That's a rubby nose-in-it smirk.
24:24Hello?
24:25How was your ten grand coconut?
24:27Ten grand coconut.
24:29Ten grand steak.
24:30I actually had two of them.
24:32And you had our dinner.
24:34Your dinner?
24:35Our rice and beans.
24:36You had it?
24:37Sorry about that.
24:38Sorry about that.
24:39All right.
24:40Well, I'm sure you have questions.
24:45Why?
24:46Um, it was necessary.
24:51I needed that kind of time alone.
24:53The price, I thought if we could do 4.5 on Chinese.
24:57The last five people?
24:59I understand that.
25:00I'm just running you through my four process at the time.
25:02I thought if we can do 4.5 on Chinese, then everyone's going to be kind of bidding between the five and the ten mark.
25:11I've been a team player, and not to say that no one else deserves it, but I felt like I earned it.
25:18You said that about the Chinese milk, and you also said, now I'm okay to go through to the end.
25:23My social battery was just at zero.
25:26So you're saying every time your battery's low, you're going to spend ten grand?
25:30I don't plan to.
25:32I genuinely needed it.
25:34I felt like I got what I needed.
25:35When I was taking Temptations, you and Sam were trying to make my life out here a living hell.
25:43So now you doing this, it's almost like it's okay for you, but it's not okay for anyone else.
25:49And, yeah, I just think, I actually think you owe me an apology, to be honest.
25:56Fair enough.
25:57My aim here wasn't to make you feel like that.
26:00I'm not making excuses for why I did.
26:02I'm not saying that it's okay for me.
26:03I'm just giving you a reason as to why I did it.
26:06I think it's just a bit of a kick in the teeth.
26:08The ten grand was just, I mean, I don't know how that's going to go down with the other cat.
26:12We've got to tread really carefully with Sam.
26:15Do you know what it is?
26:16I've seen Sam blow her top for way less.
26:19She's gone.
26:20So I've seen her go nuts over some cheesy chips in a pub.
26:24So I'm just like, you know, it's going to go down.
26:31Nathaniel's actions have definitely opened up my eyes to the fact that you have no idea who's going to spend what.
26:38You know, I don't know people well enough really to trust them.
26:41This could start a whole new different side to the camp.
26:44This could start a big spending spree and then we've hardly got anything left.
26:50Nathaniel's stance from the very beginning has been, we don't need to take temptations.
26:55We don't need luxury.
26:57We don't need anything apart from this jungle life.
27:00There's a word that comes to mind, hypocrite.
27:04You didn't get an apology for him eating your food and I didn't get an apology.
27:07But he said he owes us all one, but it hasn't come yet.
27:11I didn't expect him that.
27:15It's not all the time I've liked to give apologies.
27:17The way I look at it, Nathaniel's just walked into the easy camp, like this was like a practice run, like a dress rehearsal.
27:23When he gets in there in front of Sam, it's like feeding him to the liars.
27:29But before the groups reunite, lying ahead of them is today's trek.
27:35Guys, I found the map.
27:37Oh, wow, okay.
27:42To get to the next campsite, both groups will be enduring the same gruelling five-kilometre trek through dense, fawny rainforest with a steep 100-metre ascent.
27:55Ready?
27:55Yes.
27:56Let's go.
27:57Let's get this party started.
27:59Should we do it then, boys?
28:00Positive thinking, guys.
28:01Let's go.
28:09Oh, for fuck's sake.
28:11Oh, my God.
28:12Here we go.
28:14Oh, right bridge.
28:16So, we're literally going to be like that.
28:21Ready?
28:22Well, I don't really have much upper body strength, but I'll give it my best shot.
28:26Let's go.
28:26Let's make a move.
28:27Oh, my gosh.
28:36Feeling strong this morning.
28:38Yeah.
28:38You fucking should be.
28:39Two steaks.
28:39Yeah.
28:40Guys, I think we've forgotten that we're not supposed to be talking to Nathaniel at the moment.
28:44I'm not going to ignore you.
28:45I'm just going to give you fucking hell.
28:47It started.
28:48I think it's going to be a long day.
28:50Oh.
28:51How do you think the rest of the guys are getting on?
28:55They're probably in a nice bubble.
28:56They don't realize they're skint yet.
28:58They don't realize we spent all that money.
29:05Oh, good.
29:06More jungle.
29:07No, this is quite steep, so I don't know.
29:09Be careful.
29:11Me and Hills don't have the best relationship.
29:14I'm really not suited to go downhill with my build.
29:17It's very easy for everyone to topple over, especially with me.
29:22I think the night in that retreat home might have made this ten times easier.
29:30Unlike the other group who've had the Chinese buffet, as well as Nathaniel's double steak
29:36plus breakfast, Sam's group's only source of energy has been rice and beans.
29:41We're just absolutely exhausted, aren't we?
29:44That's where we're at today.
29:45Mm-hmm.
29:46We're just getting through day by day now at the moment.
29:50Obviously, today's chat, I think everyone's just got to stand their heads down and just
29:53get into the camp, really, aren't we?
29:56At the start, I set myself a goal to make it to the end with essentially no temptation taken.
30:02It's important for me because I've been faced with quite a lot of obstacles and challenges
30:05throughout my life.
30:06Obviously, being deaf, so I had to work harder than others to get to where I am.
30:10This is an opportunity for me to prove that I am strong-willed and I can tell myself that.
30:17I feel like we're all fully in-renting ourselves in the younger experience.
30:21That's our own choice.
30:22But we're also trying to have as much money as possible at the end.
30:26Yes, I came here to take as much money home to my family as possible.
30:31My restaurant was beautiful, fresh food, beautiful linen on the tables, real old school, gorgeous
30:38service.
30:40But unfortunately, current cost of living just wasn't practical to run.
30:46With my two children, I have to budget.
30:50Life's tough.
30:51I don't have the money I, you know, used to have.
30:54So, of course, money motivates me.
30:56Not for me, purely to give my children a good life.
31:01Come on, boys.
31:02I'm tired of being with the B-Squad.
31:07Since we got split up, it's been quite dry.
31:10Obviously, I get on with you.
31:12But it's just we came here to be happy, not to be miserable, you know?
31:15It's not fun.
31:16I wish we could stop those three for Nathaniel, Martha and Imani.
31:21I think that would be the dream team.
31:22The hunger is just making me a bit more tired, especially after I couldn't indulge in the
31:33Chinese chicken.
31:35Just, you know, really craving something other than some beans and rice.
31:39I'm looking forward to see what spicy, juicy temptations are on the way.
31:44What?
31:45If a bit of a pick-me-up is all they need, they won't have to last that long.
31:49Guys, I've just seen something through the bushes.
31:53Oh, my God!
31:54It's jelly!
31:58Pick and mix.
32:00For that sweet energy boost to make a trek easy as pie.
32:04Or if the 36-degree heat is too hot to handle, how about a refreshing ice-cold slushie to
32:11quench the first?
32:12But this is probably the most expensive sweet shop on the planet.
32:19Oh, my God!
32:22Smell them!
32:24First to face the sugar fix is Nathaniel's group.
32:28So the slushies are £300.
32:29The pick and mix, 100 grams, is £250.
32:34That doesn't actually tickle my fancy, you know.
32:37Because of the heat, I'm getting a bit of a headache, so I need to stay away from those
32:40today.
32:40I love chocolate.
32:43Do you really need it after you've had Chinese?
32:44I don't need it.
32:45I just think it'll be nice.
32:46I have absolutely no willpower and I'm very impulsive.
32:50I did get a buzz from taking the Chinese, so I think I could probably benefit from having
32:54Hugo back by my side, because now I've had one temptation, the impulsiveness has kicked
33:00in.
33:01No, no, no, no, you're right.
33:02It's worth it.
33:02It's worth it.
33:03Yeah, Hugo's going to kick my butt.
33:05I found we're very good at turning down cheap temptations, but then we're supposed to be
33:08like...
33:09Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
33:10We're not interested, are we?
33:12David's going to have a kill game.
33:14Oh, yeah.
33:18Oh, my God, guys.
33:20There is a temptation.
33:22Woo!
33:25Having missed out on the Chinese buffet and the retreat, will David and Tomas be able
33:30to resist a sugar rush?
33:32It's a cold drink.
33:34Oh, good.
33:35Oh, I feel that.
33:36That was cooling me down so well.
33:39Wow.
33:42I don't know, we've got so many smarties as well.
33:45Slush is £300, pick and mix £250.
33:48Why don't we take something and share?
33:52No weekend way.
33:55But your body uses a lot of heat, just, like, drinking something cold actually makes you
33:58hotter after.
33:59It's a no from me, guys.
34:03Yeah, I've never really been, like, a pick and mix fan.
34:05It's amazing as it is.
34:06I'm going to say no for that one.
34:08This is right out of my street.
34:10I think this has my name written all over it.
34:13All over it.
34:14Reward yourself once the job's done.
34:18You can bathe in slush then.
34:23I'm going to say no.
34:24I'm going to say no.
34:28Taking temptation, it feels good at the time.
34:32But you kind of start feeling bad afterwards because you get to know people and you feel guilty
34:39from taking from the prize pot.
34:42I just have to keep my eyes on the prize, which is to get to the next camp.
34:46Not today for everyone, then.
34:50Not today, folks.
34:51It's a no from us.
34:58For the first time, everyone's resisted temptation.
35:02But the groups will soon be back together.
35:04And Nathaniel's lot will have to face the music to the tune of 14 and a half grand.
35:12Guys, it's a big tent.
35:15We're all back together.
35:16Yeah, we're all back.
35:16Oh, OK, we need to buckle up.
35:19You know what that means?
35:20Beef.
35:21The beef is going to be served.
35:24I think the group will still respect me as a leader.
35:29We just all need to remain in alignment moving forward.
35:31I'm definitely not going to defend Nathaniel.
35:35He is a big boy.
35:36He can defend himself.
35:40Hallelujah!
35:41I can hear David from a sodding mile away.
35:45Oh, gosh.
35:46I let Nathaniel know that we are holding him accountable
35:49and that he does need to apologize to us.
35:52Oi, oi!
35:53There they are.
35:55So I will be front row to see this all unfold.
35:59Oh, you're good, thank you.
36:01Oh, good to see you.
36:02Good to see you.
36:03Sam's a worry.
36:05The worst possible outcome is Sam goes,
36:07fuck this, fuck you all, what's spending right?
36:10I don't mean that we all do it all,
36:11but hopefully Nathaniel's going to be able to read her back in.
36:15You know, we're done with the place.
36:16I know, I think badly you guys have to ride first
36:18and set it all up for us.
36:20Yeah, guys, come and have a seat.
36:22I feel like there's a lot to look at Chapel.
36:24Straight to the nitty gritty, yeah?
36:25Straight to the nitty grits.
36:26I ain't done nothing more here for once.
36:29This is definitely the calm before the storm.
36:39After 48 hours apart, both groups have been reunited
36:44and must now reveal what they've spent from the shared prize pots.
36:50All right, guys, do you want the good news or the bad news?
36:55We want the good news.
36:56It's good news fair, yeah.
37:03Yeah, good news is we've come to an understanding
37:08throughout the group
37:10that we now need to be very responsible
37:18with money moving forward.
37:25The bad news is
37:26for the retreat,
37:29I put down 10K.
37:3810K?
37:4210,000.
37:43Oh, my God.
37:44I wasn't expecting 10K.
37:47You're so full of shit.
37:49It's unbelievable.
37:53I can't even look at you, honestly.
37:55Can't even look at you, mate.
37:57What was the rationale?
37:58My social battery was
38:00below minimum
38:01and I realised
38:03I actually need some time alone.
38:05So I'm happy I took the space away.
38:09Well, I'm glad you had a lovely relaxing time
38:11when we've all starved and took nothing.
38:13That's correct.
38:14You're so full of shit.
38:15I do owe an apology
38:17to Imani and Thomas
38:21for making your time here uncomfortable.
38:25There has to be a balance.
38:27If we are all
38:28as stupid as you,
38:30then what happens is
38:30let's not call somebody stupid.
38:33All right, stop.
38:33So, therefore,
38:35we're staying strong
38:36so you can all have the time of your lives
38:38and then we all go home with money,
38:39but you don't see it like that.
38:41You're coming here
38:41like the big Terminator,
38:43the big I am.
38:44You are so full of shit, mate.
38:46And I'm telling you
38:46that straight to your face.
38:48It's just fucking,
38:49it's just,
38:49it's a fucking joke.
38:52You're a joke.
38:52Everyone's on their own journey, Seth.
38:57Don't even just...
38:59No.
39:03What about the Chinese buffet?
39:08The buffet came up on the first day
39:10and that cost 4.5.
39:13Oh, fuck me.
39:15We spent zero.
39:17So you spent 14,500 pounds
39:20in two and a half days.
39:21So it's a bit unfair.
39:23We have to be careful.
39:24But who authorised all this?
39:26It came up,
39:26it said if three or more people won it.
39:29Literally two seconds
39:31took us to decide on that
39:32because we said
39:33we wanted a group one.
39:34Yeah, but we wasn't together
39:35as a group
39:36but you lot still took it.
39:37You didn't think about
39:38the other half.
39:39But you had the same choice.
39:42Do you know what I mean?
39:42I didn't have the same choice
39:43because it probably
39:44would have been two of us
39:45and we was outnumbered.
39:47If we're all like you lot,
39:48it's like there's fuck all left.
39:49You should have thought
39:51about how we were feeling as well.
39:53We did
39:53and that's why we chose it.
39:55How does that...
39:56On what planet
39:57does that make sense?
39:58Because we needed proper food.
39:59You thought about
40:00how we were feeling.
40:01That's how you went
40:01and stuffed your face with Chinese.
40:03That don't make no sense, Trish.
40:05I just thought that
40:05we were kind of moving
40:07with a certain trajectory
40:09as a group.
40:10Do you know what I mean?
40:11Were you taking one?
40:13Yeah, and I told everyone
40:14that I took it.
40:14Yeah, I took it one.
40:15It was £300.
40:17Yeah, but it doesn't matter
40:18about the number.
40:19Of course it's about the number.
40:21It's all about the number.
40:23You spent more money than me,
40:24so you're worse.
40:25That's what I'm trying to tell you.
40:26I'm there standing there.
40:27It's beating down
40:28with the hot sun.
40:30I'm looking at a £300
40:31slash puppy thinking,
40:33I don't know.
40:34Oh, yeah, the group,
40:35the group, the group.
40:36Find the group, man.
40:39The group ain't thinking
40:40about other people.
40:41Everyone's just doing
40:42their own thing.
40:46It's changed the game
40:47a little bit for me now.
40:49When I'm spending money,
40:50no one don't tell me nothing.
40:52Don't say nothing to me,
40:53I'm doing my thing now.
41:00Maybe it's time
41:01to have some fun then,
41:02David, isn't it?
41:03Eh?
41:05Because, uh,
41:06I could do with
41:07fucking tearing up.
41:08I think there's enough
41:10for people to take a treat,
41:11there's enough for people
41:12to take some harm.
41:12Yeah, well, I'm feeling
41:13like a fucking treat.
41:16Loyalty is everything to me
41:17and, unfortunately,
41:19people don't have
41:20the same values in life
41:22and I'm obviously
41:23learning that the hard way.
41:26The only two
41:27that are standing in there now
41:28that have taken nothing
41:30are the two youngest boys.
41:32You're right.
41:33I thought we were
41:34on to something.
41:35We were in a team.
41:36I know.
41:36I thought I could trust you.
41:38Everyone needs time first.
41:39It took us overnight.
41:41When that's here,
41:42we've already just been told this
41:43and you can't really expect
41:44like Dave and Sam
41:46to calm down.
41:47Every action has a consequence.
41:49This has sort of split the camp.
41:51There's going to be
41:51a few people
41:52that decide that
41:53we're going to be
41:54more careful
41:55and then there's going to be
41:56other people
41:57that are going to
41:58be absolutely ridiculous
41:59and just spend, spend, spend.
42:01After hearing that,
42:02I don't think that
42:03I cannot not spend.
42:06For what reason?
42:07I was holding back
42:09for the group collectively.
42:11I didn't think I realised that before.
42:12I thought I was just
42:13doing my own thing.
42:15Do what you want to do, mate.
42:17You want to leave no money,
42:18that's sweet.
42:19The amount of times
42:20Nathaniel would say,
42:22I'm not going to spend
42:23other people's money,
42:24then he goes and does it.
42:25Stuff like that
42:26would stay in my head.
42:27Do I regret
42:31the Oriental Buffet?
42:32No.
42:33Do I regret
42:34the stay in the retreat?
42:36No.
42:37The bid I put in
42:38was a bit excessive.
42:40I don't personally think
42:41this is going to affect much.
42:42I still have the respect
42:44from a lot of people
42:44in the camp.
42:45You haven't even heard
42:46the fucking
42:47juicy bar.
42:49Nathaniel
42:50fucked off
42:52but had already eaten dinner
42:53and didn't leave
42:53any for me and Trish.
42:55They were like,
42:56fuck.
42:56He's fucking stupid.
42:59A Chinese buffet
43:00in the middle
43:01of a jungle
43:03when you can
43:04see the end
43:05is taking the piss.
43:08£10,000
43:09on a cosy retreat
43:10for yourself
43:11is taking the piss.
43:14Really anger.
43:15It's bad, isn't it?
43:16I'm feeling it.
43:18I'm just trying
43:19to keep the shit together.
43:21Sam's is extremely quiet
43:23and has a very stern
43:24look on her face.
43:25She's ready to blow.
43:29Are you buying the apology?
43:31I'm not buying his apology, no.
43:32No.
43:34He's absolutely
43:34no match for me, that.
43:36No match at all.
43:38Anytime you want to talk,
43:39I'm there.
43:40I don't want to talk to you.
43:41That's fine.
43:41Honestly.
43:42That's fine.
43:42It's there.
43:42You think you're
43:43a big, tough guy.
43:44Just a £10,000
43:46on a retreat
43:47on your own.
43:48Look at you standing there
43:53all, like, freaking...
43:54You think you're the big man.
43:55Honest to God,
43:57I'd fucking chew you up
43:58and spit you out.
43:59Do what you need to do.
44:00Do what you need to do.
44:02Do what you need to do.
44:03Absolutely pathetic you are.
44:04I'm a big man
44:07and I need a night away
44:08on my own
44:09with a bottle of red wine
44:10and some steak.
44:11There is going to be a line
44:12that we're going across
44:14that way
44:14it gets disrespectful, yeah?
44:16When we get to that point...
44:18Is it Nathaniel?
44:19The point's well and gone.
44:20You can't even see the point.
44:21When we get to that point,
44:23yeah?
44:23Yeah?
44:24Yeah.
44:24And you've got it off your chest
44:25and you actually want to have
44:27a proper conversation.
44:28I do not want to have
44:28a proper conversation.
44:29Because all of this is emotion.
44:32All of this is emotion.
44:34You cannot phase me
44:36with anything you say to me.
44:38Take yourself off now.
44:39I don't even want to look at you.
44:44I've come here.
44:45I've challenged myself.
44:46I've also put my neck
44:47on the line for a team.
44:49A team that threatened
44:50to rinse the pot dry.
44:52A team that questioned
44:53my leadership.
44:54You start to wonder
44:55why you're actually doing it.
44:57I've only got six days left
44:59of being strong.
45:00Am I going to suffer
45:01for the next six days
45:02or should I go and have
45:03the greatest time of all?
45:05That was madness.
45:08My concern is
45:09people now acting out of spite.
45:12It's not gone down too well.
45:14Nathaniel's definitely
45:15blown it from now
45:16if he thought he was the leader.
45:19I feel like we've lost
45:20complete control there.
45:21It's just going to be
45:22a race to the bottom
45:22and the pot's going to be diminished.
45:25Should I continue
45:26to protect the group's money?
45:28I don't see why I should.
45:29I'd rather go home
45:30with nothing
45:31than don't tell me
45:32what I'm going home with.
45:34There really is a storm tonight.
45:36Yeah, there is a storm
45:37for brewing.
45:39Having the cheek
45:40and the nerve to say
45:42you came to a unanimous
45:44decision.
45:46Now let's not do
45:47no spending.
45:48Are you crazy?
45:51Now you don't want to spend?
45:52Listen, the bank is open.
45:55Yeah, the bank is open
45:57for spending.
46:02Next time
46:03on Tempting Fortune.
46:05An ATM, hey?
46:06This is almost like
46:07payback.
46:07After I've taken a 10k,
46:09it's definitely going to
46:09justify a lot of people
46:10taking this money.
46:11This one's tricky
46:12because it comes down to trust.
46:13That was a test, right?
46:14Obviously, some people
46:15aren't up to scratch.
46:17Fuck a lot of them.
46:18Fuck them now.
46:21Tonight is the night
46:22where the Big Heart goes wild.
