Trivia[]

Behind the Scenes[]

  • When demonstrating what Mawaan had learnt, Greg told him "I hate your trainers", the episode's name.
  • Normally with £20: Daisy would have vaped and ghost hunted; Richard would have bought sweets and gambled; Mawaan would spend it in Poundland buying 20 things.[1]
  • Other ideas considered by the contestants were: Johnny joining Richmond polo club; Katherine donating the money to charity (something her daughter claimed she'd never do with £20); and Mawaan ripping up the note.[1]
  • The fortune teller's prediction is considerably accurate, as Richard's victory in the series was ultimately decided by the final task of the series.
