* FailedASpotCheck: Discussed in the podcast. John reveals that before filming the team task in "Dafty In The Middle", he was told by the crew that they needed to do a pick-up shot of him leaving the caravan. John didn't think much of it at the time, so he was genuinely shocked when Alex gave him the secret sabotage task. It was only later that John realised that this was a clue that something was afoot, his reasoning being that the crew should know by now how to film the show so that pick-up shots would be unnecessary.

Instead, he ends up rushing to the kitchen to find some.
