Honestly, we are absolutely bereft today. Our very own Harrison got sent packing from Celebrity Treasure Island and we are fully spiraling. We break down that brutal elimination, the "dog move" camera angles on his feet, and why Harrison’s nana is already over the show now that he’s gone.
It has been a massive day in the world of reality TV, and not necessarily in a good way for the home team. Our boy Harrison officially got eliminated from Celebrity Treasure Island after a grueling 57-minute physical challenge, and the vibes in the studio are a mix of pride and total heartbreak. Harrison opened up about the mental battle of staying locked in while his arm went numb, and the "beautiful" but overwhelming flood of messages he’s received from fans across Aotearoa since the episode aired. Of course, it wouldn't be the Ash London Show without things getting a little bit "group chat losing it" style. We pivoted from Harrison’s emotional exit to some truly eye-popping pop culture deep dives. Ash shared a classic story about flirting with a "ripped" David Guetta during an interview, leading the team down a rabbit hole regarding the actual ages of the world’s biggest DJs. Turns out, some of these blokes have been doing residencies since before Harrison was born! We also had to address the absolute "immaculate scenes" of Simon Barnett in the shower. While Harrison was fighting for his life on the island, Simon was busy providing what might be the most talked-about broadcast moment of the year. The team (and apparently half of the More FM Instagram followers) were left buffering over the obliques on display. It’s a lot to process, especially when you find out Harrison’s CTI journey only actually lasted four days in real time. Finally, we looked ahead to who might actually take out the top prize now that our glue is gone. From Nicks and her incredible, harrowing life story to the rising tension between Ben Barrington and Vinny Bennett, the drama is only just starting. We might be biased, but the island is definitely looking a little less bright without our Harry.
