I hope it's JR's turn to go this week. The editing is brilliant at making the audience think the Faithfuls are on to him and then the round table goes awry every time.
I have never enjoyed these sorts of programmes before, but the last 'normal' series (the first I'd watched) showed me just how frail the human psyche is. Group think, mob rule, selfishness and intelligent intrigue are all on display in this game format. If you want to know how a whole group of people can be convinced that good is bad (or vice versa) just watch this show. It's a real paradigm of the real world and to that extent, frightening.
