So the last one out is the winner? I wonder if they will leave all that equipment down there. I expect so, after all they can't really expect the 'winner' to send it all up before he leaves the house. And would anyone want to go down afterwards to collect it/turn off the lights?Originally posted by Zippy View PostIt's like the last night of Big Brother - "Juan. You have been evicted ..."Comment

The first chap is out, a mining expert and paramedic are down there, and another due to return to the surface in a mo. Very well orchestrated. Here's hoping the capsule/borehole hold up for the rest.
Absolutely loving the fact the drill that did the job is called 'Plan B'.Comment

Can't view this right now but is the capsule thing they're using like the transport pods on Futurama?Comment
