The Circle UK Summary - (Monday 7th October 2019)

Updated: Apr 8, 2023

Lots has happened in the show so far, and I thought it would be a good idea to make a list of who is actually still competing to win that £100,000 prize! At the beginning of this episode there were actually 8 players still in the show. Woody, Tim, Brooke, Georgina and 'Sammie' a.k.a James, FIVE of the EIGHT original players and new players Ella, Paddy and 'Joyce' a.k.a previously blocked players Beth and Jack have all managed to survive the blocking so far, but with ratings around the corner...NOBODY is safe!


To begin the episode, we saw 'Joyce' setting up her profile, putting her status as 'Widowed' to show that she had a husband and an interesting life. On the bio she stated that she has a lot of things on her bucket list, and she recently attended Reading festival...Go 'Joyce' !!


Ella invited Woody to a private chat as they both celebrated becoming the top two influencers for the first time.


...And The Circle news feed was updated, showing the goodbye videos from Beth and Jack!

Beth and Jack were then given the opportunity to watch in on The Circle chat, as the rest of the players discussed the latest result of the blocking. They were able to see the other players to see what they really thought of them.


Brooke then invited Ella to a private chat called the 'Bants Chat' to discuss all things 'banter'. They were talking about how Jack tried to flirt with all of the other players...#JackAndHisBeanStalk became a thing!


Paddy wanted to get to know some of the other players, so he invited both Woody and 'Sammie' into a group chat called 'Paddy's Probing Pananza' where Paddy had some interesting questions he wanted to ask the other players...


Firstly, he wanted to know what SUPERPOWER each of them would like to have...Paddy admitted that he wanted a superpower to persuade Jack to sit on his face, 'Sammie' said that she wanted to try and see though the walls so she knew who everyone was or to be able to dispense gin from one nipple and tonic from the other...and Woody said that he would have liked his superpower to be able to rewind conversations backwards by 10 seconds; probably due to being scarred by what 'Sammie' just said.


Then he asked each of them what their DRAG NAMES would be! Straightaway Paddy revealed that his would be 'Lepricorn Sl*t' due to the fact that he's Irish and loves to party hard, 'Sammie's' would be 'Semi giving Sammie' and Woody's would be 'Lank daddy wood'




After that rather interesting conversation, it was game time once again! The game was called 'Bright Sparks' and each of the players were split into two teams. The blue team was made up of 'Joyce', Brooke, Tim and Woody, while the pink team was made up of Georgina, Ella, 'Sammie' and Paddy.


In the game, there were four category rounds where the team captains ('Joyce' and Georgina) had to select who they thought would be best suited for each round.


Category 1 - Disney (Brooke and 'Sammie' were chosen, but neither of them could identify 'Olaf' as the missing snowman from the picture) - 'Sammie' wanted to just 'Let it go'...


Category 2 - Music ('Circle Besties' Woody and Ella were chosen this time and it was Woody who proved that he was more of a Little Mix fan by correctly guessing the theme tune of 'Black Magic')...


Category 3 - Literature (Tim and Paddy were up for naming a book from just the emojis - and the answer was 'Wind in the Willows' which neither of them got right)...


Category 4 - Food & Drink (and it was down to captains 'Joyce' and Georgina to guess which drink sample they were sent...Each of the other players also received the gift, but neither of them could identify that it was Sherry). Some of the other players thought that it was strange for an elderly woman like 'Joyce' to not know the taste or smell of an elderly woman's drink?? Hmm catfish suspicions...


We then found out that the winning team of four ('Joyce', Brooke, Tim and Woody) would have their breakfasts made by the losing team! Shame...


Ella then began another private chat with Woody to discuss the game, and that they wanted to find out more about 'Joyce', including the festival she went to, more information on her dog and her admiration for the gin and tonic's. They added 'Joyce' to the group chat...


Everything seemed to go swimmingly well, until 'Joyce' refused to answer the question of who she saw at reading...it became suspicious to both Ella and Woody, and was definitely something they both noted on their 'catfish board'...


'Joyce' was then given the opportunity to take another player to the hangout, for some 'quality time', so she decided to take Tim. 'Joyce' a.k.a Beth and Jack had to play this one well, as 5 time influencer Tim has already proved that he is easily able to identify a catfish...


To watch The Circle live, it's on every night (apart from Saturday), Channel 4 @ 10/10:15pm!
