Until then I'll keep quiet.
Me too!   
We can discuss then.

On the 21st here they will be showing a reunion episode with all of the survivors.

Is that what you're getting as well, or does anyone reading this thread not know the winner yet?

I just really don't want to spoil it for anyone.

It is my understanding the final show is aired this coming week in Canada. Thus we in the states are allowing them to catch that episode before discussing.

Thank you for allowing us Canucks to catch up. I am not sure why they have it offset. We had a recap episode halfway through.....maybe that night there was something else on that they didn't want to compete with?

I watched the last 2 episodes last night. Next week is the reunion/recap episode.

I'm aware of the winner.

The Spaniard rolled his kayak and then figured that because he was already wearing all of his warm clothes which were now wet, and because he would not be able to dry them before the night time temperatures dropped, that he risked hypothermia so he called for rescue.  That just left 2.

I wonder how long it took the boat to get there......he was still standing in the water when they got there........shock? Disappointment?

Most certainly shock.  He looked "lost" if you will.  I was so bummed for him having to tap as a result of being soaked.  I think he made the right call.  I'm not familiar with wool but I cannot imagine he would be able to dry out.   I do wish we would have seen more of his time on the island.  His skills were certainly on display IMO.

Ahhh, shock got the best of him. Cold water, low energy and likely a bit of dehydration got him.

Wool is one of the best fibres for warmth retention while wet.

Next time I get retrenched/made redundant/employer closes doors, or when "my government" finally passes AA legislation that would make me unemployable..........I'm applying, and I'll win.

The will to win is a big factor. A lot depends on locale too. I will have a harder time in different locations...ie high altitude and arid.  I would like to have the chance to compete. Better odds at winning than the hundreds of thousands that went to the bush during the gold rush.

this just proves that stubbornness can take you places. sadly I have to say that I wasn't really impressed even though David lasted longer than Alan.

Oh and wool retains a lot of insulating value but with the wind it still is a wet piece of clothing. Takes a while to dry too, even more so since it's not the best idea to put it directly over any heat source that would quicken the process (fire in their case, radiator in my case). Probably the best thing to do, outside of changing into something dry, would be to put on a windbreaker jacket or an anorak over the wet wool and be close to a heat source

If season 3 is in process, did they select another local and do a spring adventure. 

+1 on stubbornness.
I was impressed with the skills of several folk, yet when it came down to the majority, they accomplished what they set out to prove, and missing loved ones or being bored, was reason to tap.

Season 3 is going to be in the Patagonian rain forest at the southern end of South America.  It is filming now.

Very nice.  The BC locale is pretty limiting for survival options.

Pretty sure they all receive an "income" while they're out.  As far as children and such  :think:

This locale ought to bring up some new challenges.  Good to see a change as I can imagine the many hopefuls after season 1 studying all they could about Vancouver Island.
