Bluddy Nora!!!

I can't really picture Ben Fogle doing it let along William!!

Deffo worth a watch!!

[Deleted User]

[Deleted User]

well, posh totty ben did do it and lived to tell the tale. amazing i know. that's why i love watching these programmes, cos I lie on the sofa thinking..... if they can do it well so can i...... NOT!!! but it's nice to dream. i'm not sure how fit he was before taking up the challenge.

It was in the 'paper recently, can't remember which.

Just had to do an internet search to find out what Des Sables Ultra is (not clued up on these things at all). Yeah I think I'd like to see this. I reckon he'll do it. My mate saw him on telly in some kind of boxing match and apparently he did ok for himself taking into consideration that he is Ben Fogel. Wish I'd seen that!

[Deleted User]

aah dear wills ... another very posh good looking lad - looks not dissimilar to ben actually. i'm no toff or royalist but i'll be watching strictly from an eye candy point of view.

Ah, might not Ben and William be mates?

The paper article did say something about Wills sounding a mate out abiout it. If Fogel is 33, then it's definitely him.

[Deleted User]

My mum was at the MDS same time as Fogle

He was beyond slow and almost bolt last and apparantly the but of quite a few jokes.


...but it should be an entertaining program non the less.

[Deleted User]

Can't be too tough then if a load of shandy drinkers can do it.

[Deleted User]

You can take comfort in the fact that he suffered quite badly....

I bet the programs edited to make it look like he came in the mid pack.

[Deleted User]

yeah .....next thing trisha will be doing it

[Deleted User]

Vanessa Phelps - I'd love to see that! Not because she's big but just because her face annoys me and I know she'd whine a lot much to my amusement.

[Deleted User]

Maybe I could run it for charity in a rhino suit .......

[Deleted User]

must say though hats off to anyone who can finish it - stone last or not. of course the slower you are the more you suffer too, so good for him - celeb or no.

[Deleted User]

even better let's get rebecca loos doing it - the camels will be happy

[Deleted User]

....to see how well one of them has done?









....she really isn't very attractive is she, I guess she has other charms. Like being a slapper.

[Deleted User]

BEN BLOODY FOGLE????........BLOODY BEN FOGLE??? I Must have summat wrong here.... I though Ben Fogle was that lah-dih-dah nancy boy off BBC'S Castaway. It can't be the same bloke, how would he draw enough breath with that plum in his gob? You've defo got summat adrift here! If it is Ben Fogle the stuck-up, twatty public-school-boy-type then it must be a Marathon in Des' Stable. Whereby he ponces around in some straw for a while trying not to get horse poo on him.

Ben Fogle.....Shmogle

[Deleted User]

wow scampi that was rant and a half.

[Deleted User]

He makes a valid point mind...he does come across as a bit of a grease spot.

[Deleted User]

hes signed up to a row the atlantic challenge next year too -its always been his dream apparently

good luck to him if hes got the spirit to give it a go -i know i dont

[Deleted User]

....or are these just his attempts at keeping his TV career alive?

[Deleted User]

hes just lucky to be able to do these things i guess

he presents animal park in the morning (on leave this week so ive discovered these things!)

[Deleted User]

nice life really - getting an in to do all these great challenges and get paid loadsa money in the process. i'm a teensy bit green.

[Deleted User]

He has got a nice dog though so he can't be all bad

[Deleted User]

What a load of
