1:23Flight attendant Charlotte takes on the course after explaining her dislike of getting her hair wet.
6:24Lifeguard Steven combines his obstacle attempt with a demonstration of swimming strokes.

Wipeout posted ten uploads, and Steven the lifeguard supplied an unusually practical contribution to the chaos: a swimming lesson. His breaststroke demonstration involves cutting and rounding an imaginary pizza, useful preparation for a course where staying dry is rarely an option.

The week's most-watched new upload, "Pole Dancer Embarrasses \"Alpha Males\" on the Big Red Balls | Total Wipeout UK | Season 4 Episode 5", reached roughly 2,700 views. Richard Hammond handles the studio commentary while Amanda Byram meets the contestants beside the course. Alongside Steven are flight attendant Charlotte, former butler Laurence and Katie, a pole-dancing instructor, with the latter joining the episode's deliberately theatrical male-female contest.

Season 4 filled the week's longer uploads, with titles promising a private investigator, a self-styled ninja and a record-breaking student. But the strongest daily momentum currently belongs to "The Nanny Who Accidentally Mastered The Big Red Balls | Total Wipeout UK | Season 4 Episode 7". A granddad's Wipeout Zone attempt is also among the busiest uploads right now, giving the athletic job titles some less predictable company.

Across the channel, daily viewing is almost exactly at its usual level. Subscribers grew modestly, adding about a thousand over the week. Its weekly views were close to SurvivorOnCBS's, while IdolsSA drew a substantially larger audience and Big Brother had a quieter week. For Wipeout, the steady business remains people discovering just how little their introduction tells you about their chances on those red balls.
