- a dastardly concoction of spinning gangways spinning sweeper arms & a whole world of pain The first six across it qualify for the penultimate round
- Terror-Go-Round This sees the competitors attempt to stay on a spinning cone whilst all manner of things are thrown swept & chucked at them by the Terror Twins The last three standing go through to the terrifying Wipeout Zone Who will end up bruised battered & dripping wet? Who will be going back to the UK bruised battered dripping wet & happy having pocketed ten thousand pounds & paid excess baggage fees to carry home the Total Wipeout Trophy? DVD 1 Swimming the English Channel climbing Mount Everest finding the Holy Grail all are footnotes on the list of challenges that man has faced compared to the ultimate challenge of challenges crossing the Big Red Balls on the Total Wipeout course Many warriors (as ordinary British folk are known in these parts) have journeyed to the purpose-built course in Argentina endured the punishment that the Qualifier unleashes the horror that is Amanda Byram pointing & laughing from the side of the course & the terror that is being given a humiliating nickname by Richard Hammond But will today prove to be the day that the Big Red Balls are once again conquered? Not likely but you never know Trying their hardest are a slightly overexcited trainee Maths teacher in pyjamas a Rastafarian postman & Jean from Hadlow in Kent She s an aging rocker Sounds like another low-key line-up of contestants but one is a guaranteed winner & will be trousering a cheque for £10000 with the added bonus of being able to call themselves Total Wipeout champion DVD 2 Eighty foolhardy Brits return to the scenes of their Total Wipeout crimes of previous series in The Last Chance Saloon Some come to defeat the course that beat them so comprehensively last time around some come with grudges against each other & all of them want to do better than last time around We say welcome back to favourites from the previous four series such as Man Mountain Syed Rock God John & Total Wipeout s most famous couple Charlardo We also witness the welcome return of Total Wipeout Record Holder Bouncy Jill
