00:00Hello and welcome to Late Checkout. I'm your host, Ellie Taylor, and following every episode of the main show,
00:06I will be taking a deep dive into all things Fortune Hotel, giving you behind-the-scenes gossip,
00:11exclusive clips and interviews with the hotel's checked-out guests.
00:15Now, this is your spoiler warning. If you haven't watched the opening episode, what are you doing?
00:21This won't make any sense. Go and do that now, because it's time for Late Checkout.
00:30Welcome to Late Checkout, your golden keycard to the Fortune Hotel,
00:34packed with exclusive clips, behind-the-scenes gossip and chats with Series 1 winner Jo
00:39and our checked-out guests Chelsea and Bryony.
00:41And an exclusive tease of what's in store for the guests on the next episode of the Fortune Hotel.
00:46They are doing my head in right now.
00:49But first, let's check in with a friendly face who knows all about providing a five-star service.
00:55Hello, Ellie. Sorry I can't be there for Late Checkout,
00:58but I'm sending you this message to say that the second series of the Fortune Hotel is fantastic.
01:03You are going to love it. So much more drama, great challenges, stunning locations,
01:09hilarious cast, and quite a few emotional scenes as well,
01:13but you're going to meet some real characters.
01:15I will be appearing every now and again.
01:18I will give my reactions to each nightcap.
01:21Well, that was fascinating.
01:24Also, there will be some behind-the-scenes footage.
01:27I can't remember exactly what I did.
01:33I hope my lawyers don't need to get involved.
01:36But good luck. You're going to have a great time.
01:38And I've got a hotel to run, so I'm off. Bye.
01:41Oh, thanks, Stephen. I've got a pep in my step now.
01:44Right, we are now going to chat to someone who has had a big win at the Fortune Hotel.
01:49And I don't just mean stealing a suitcase full of towels.
01:52It's Series 1 winner, Jo.
01:55Oh, Jo!
01:56Welcome!
01:58A brand-new series of Fortune Hotel.
02:00I know, exciting.
02:01You've seen the first episode.
02:03What do you make of it so far?
02:04I thought it was fabulous.
02:06Absolutely fabulous.
02:09Just, you know, just watching it and just thinking,
02:11oh, my God, I know what they're all feeling.
02:14When you first go up to the hotel and you see it,
02:16and you see that amazing swimming pool,
02:18and you're like, oh, I felt quite envious, actually.
02:21I bet you want to go back.
02:22I wanted to go back, yeah.
02:23Were you surprised to see a couple go so quickly?
02:26How awful.
02:27Brutal.
02:28Brutal.
02:28Good telly, though, isn't it?
02:29Being stood on the beach at the end of that swimming pool
02:31and not even getting past that swimming pool,
02:33that is just...
02:35Yeah, I was shouting at the TV,
02:37it's reception desk!
02:39It's funny to see how some people got it so quickly.
02:41I know.
02:42But that happened on ours, and we did ours as well.
02:45We had the word mermaid.
02:46Oh, people have got bedroom and all sorts out of that.
02:49So, yeah.
02:51So who are your favourites so far?
02:53Nella and Toppe.
02:54Yeah.
02:54I got a good feeling about those.
02:55And the brothers.
02:57Jake and Mike.
02:57Jake and Mike, yeah.
02:58They reminded me of Adam and Michael from Series 1.
03:02So they'd be good people to make alliances with,
03:04have a gossip with.
03:04I think so, yeah.
03:06Are there any people that you thought,
03:07hmm, they could be a bit of a threat?
03:09The mum and son.
03:10Jeremy and Sue.
03:12Jeremy and Sue.
03:13Oh, Jeremy.
03:14Yes.
03:14Quite right.
03:15I just, er, I thought he was quite, erm...
03:18Confident?
03:19Yes.
03:20Yes.
03:20Yes, he was very confident.
03:21He was.
03:22When his mum told him off when they were pulling away.
03:24Yeah.
03:24Well, that reminded me of me and Will.
03:25I just thought, oh, yeah,
03:27they've got another me and Will on there.
03:29So, yeah, yeah, that was quite good.
03:31I can't wait for some alliances to start forming, though.
03:33Fair enough.
03:34OK, from your experience,
03:36what were your first thoughts when you saw the first nightcap?
03:40Oh, gosh.
03:41What's it like to be in that room?
03:43All the feelings that I used to experience on that night
03:46came back and I was thinking,
03:47oh, my God, I know how you're all feeling.
03:49You just have a nervous belly all the way through it
03:52and you're just constantly watching the case,
03:57thinking where's it going to go next.
03:59And then when it goes somewhere and you think,
04:00oh, Christ, I didn't think it was going to go there.
04:04What are they going to do now?
04:06And, like, I've not seen where it goes to after that.
04:09So I'm, like, thinking, who's it going to pass it to?
04:11I'd pass it to them.
04:13Use your common sense!
04:15You find yourself shouting at the TV.
04:17Yeah.
04:17Well, I did.
04:18Yeah.
04:18It must be so hard,
04:20cos you can have all the strategy that you like,
04:21but if someone plays a way you don't think it's going to go,
04:24it's all gone out the window.
04:26Who deserves to go, do you think?
04:29It's hard to say.
04:30It's hard to say.
04:31I mean, and they're all learning it as well.
04:32They're trying to, like, get to grips with everybody.
04:34It's just...
04:35It's mind-blowing.
04:37It really is.
04:38It's been a year since you've won now.
04:40Let's remind ourselves of that winning moment from Series 1.
04:44Now let's find out who won the Fortune Hotel.
04:47Shit, have we made the right decision?
04:49Open your cases, please.
04:50Oh, my God.
05:03It's absolutely life-changing.
05:05Would my dad be proud?
05:06Oh, my God, yeah.
05:08Proud is an understatement.
05:10How does that make you feel?
05:16Oh.
05:18Yeah, just seeing, opening that case again,
05:21I've got all butterflies and, yeah,
05:24it just makes you feel really emotional.
05:26Yeah.
05:26I can't like anything, don't I?
05:28How many times have you seen that?
05:30Quite a few.
05:31Yeah.
05:32Well, why not?
05:33Just to remind myself.
05:33No, fair enough,
05:34because it must seem like it didn't happen, right?
05:36Like it was a bit of a dream.
05:37It was just amazing.
05:38I was just watching that bit with the fireworks
05:41and I can remember stood at that point saying to her,
05:44I can pay that 250 bill now to British Gas.
05:47And it's just like, you know,
05:49it's just amazing.
05:51It just, it was, yeah.
05:53I love that.
05:53You're standing in luxury thinking about the gas bill.
05:56Well, I know.
05:57No, but fair enough, fair enough.
05:59How's your life changed since that moment?
06:01I'm going to say it hasn't changed.
06:04Everything's still normal.
06:05I still go to work.
06:06I still buy yellow stickers at Tesco.
06:10I just, yeah.
06:12But it's, I've paid my mortgage off.
06:15So, you know, if I wanted to reduce my hours,
06:19I can now afford to.
06:20So, yeah.
06:21Oh, that's a comfortable way to be, right?
06:23It is.
06:24It's lovely.
06:24And what else have you spent your money on?
06:26I'm giving some money to a hospital that I use.
06:31It's a lymphedema clinic.
06:33So it's part of my ongoing cancer that I had.
06:35Oh, wow.
06:37I bought myself a nice handbag.
06:39Oh, lovely.
06:40That was my main thing.
06:42And I paid my £250 of British Gas.
06:44Big question.
06:45Where's Will?
06:47Will, he's currently in the Philippines.
06:50So he's living his best life.
06:53We're very sad Will's not here,
06:54but we've actually got a message from him.
06:56He's found time for us.
06:57Oh.
06:58Will from the Fortune Hotel here,
07:00up in the clouds in the Philippines.
07:02I've been travelling to South East Asia
07:04for the past four months with my girlfriend
07:05and it's all down to the Fortune Hotel.
07:08So to all them contestants,
07:10keep pushing through it.
07:11And if you win,
07:12this is what you've got waiting on the other side.
07:14Has it changed my life?
07:15Definitely.
07:16And it's changed my teeth as well.
07:17Take care.
07:18I love that.
07:21What do you think of the teeth?
07:23Oh, no, mum's not sure.
07:26What's wrong with the teeth?
07:27They look cracking.
07:28I was told to say,
07:29if you've not got anything nice,
07:31don't say it at all.
07:33Oh, Jo, it's been so lovely to talk to you.
07:35Thank you so much for filling us in.
07:37But, right, time for a quick break now,
07:38but don't go anywhere
07:39because we will be chatting to Chelsea and Bryony
07:41who went all the way to the Caribbean
07:43and didn't even get to check in.
07:45See you in a bit.
07:54Welcome back to Late Checkout,
07:56the travel-sized version of the main show.
07:58Compact, convenient and slightly unpredictable.
08:01Now, most holidays feel like they're over
08:04before they've even begun,
08:05but that was literally the case for Chelsea and Bryony.
08:08Let's remind ourselves of their time on the show.
08:11There are only ten rooms available at the Fortune Hotel.
08:15We're getting this challenge done,
08:17and we're getting it.
08:18Three room keys, please.
08:20Go, go, go, go, go.
08:22Oh, no, I don't understand.
08:24Desk reception.
08:25You're the winner's winner, right now?
08:27Woo-hoo!
08:28I don't want it!
08:30I don't want it!
08:31If you pick the case with the early checkout card,
08:33you're going home.
08:37Oh!
08:37It's okay, it's okay!
08:40I'm fine.
08:43Girls, welcome!
08:46It's so lovely to see you.
08:49How was it seeing that again?
08:51It's like a bit of PTSD, Ellie.
08:53It's bringing it all back.
08:54It is bringing it all back.
08:56It was devastating.
08:58We didn't expect to get all the way there
09:00and not even get into the Fortune Hotel.
09:03As you can see with my reaction with running up to Stephen,
09:06I was like, just take the key and let us in!
09:08We thought that was a challenge.
09:10We didn't realise it was going to be that twist,
09:11and we genuinely believe when we got that key off that point
09:14that we was in, we've got it, we've got a room key.
09:16No, no, we were not.
09:17We were not.
09:18We were not.
09:18We were not.
09:18We were not.
09:18We were not.
09:19How did you feel when you opened that case
09:22and you saw the early checkout card?
09:24It just hit us.
09:25It was gut-wrenching.
09:27But as you can see, my reaction,
09:29because I knew how upset Chelsea would be,
09:31because you're very emotional.
09:33I'm emotional.
09:33And I just needed to make sure she was okay.
09:36That's why you hear me go, it's okay.
09:37It's okay.
09:38It's okay.
09:39Just breathe.
09:39Just breathe.
09:40Inside, I'm like, it's not okay.
09:42You must have been proper devo'd when you saw it.
09:45Yeah, definitely.
09:46Because we just...
09:47We was ready for an adventure.
09:48Of course it was.
09:49And we feel like we was kind of...
09:50Because it was all down to luck.
09:52Like, literally what it was.
09:53Yeah.
09:53Yeah.
09:53We felt we did okay in the challenge.
09:55Could have done a bit better.
09:56But, you know, we won't do a crossword again.
09:57It's all right.
09:58We'll stay away from then.
09:59But it's...
10:01We just were looking for more of an adventure.
10:03Yeah.
10:03And we feel like it was cut really short.
10:06Oh, and we would have loved to have seen more of you,
10:08because we could just tell from, like,
10:09the little bit of time that we got to spend time with you.
10:11But you're so much fun.
10:13I would have loved to have seen you get stuck in.
10:15Us too.
10:16Oh, sorry.
10:17I don't know what I've brought up again.
10:18Oh, goodness.
10:19Pass us a drink.
10:21But you just started to sort of form
10:23these fledgling relationships with the others.
10:26Did you think there were any people
10:27that you were sort of drawn to?
10:28Do you think there were any people
10:29you would have been good pals with?
10:31Yeah, we...
10:32I was very intrigued by Jeremy and Sue.
10:34Yeah.
10:34No, they're not the kind of people
10:36I would come across in my normal day-to-day life.
10:38They were very eclectic people
10:39that you're not necessarily going to...
10:41That's what's good about it.
10:42Yeah, and I was looking forward to
10:44trying to be able to get to know them a bit more,
10:46because I was just dead intrigued by them
10:47and just where they come from
10:49and what their story was.
10:50Yeah.
10:50Did you enjoy your time out there
10:51as short-lived as it was then?
10:52Yeah.
10:53Loved it.
10:53Loved it.
10:54Loved it.
10:54Fantastic.
10:55Such a laugh.
10:56And did you go straight back
10:57to business cleaning at home?
10:58Straight back.
10:59That's the joys of being self-employed, Ellie.
11:01Straight back.
11:02Literally, I think it was about a day or two later,
11:05we were straight back to it.
11:06Back home to mum-wife.
11:08We both have a cleaning business.
11:09It's cleaning brat services.
11:10Clean for Chelsea, bright for Brian.
11:12C&B.
11:13C&B.
11:14There you go.
11:15Jo, do you need anything brightened up?
11:17Oh, definitely.
11:18Oh, well.
11:18We're your girls.
11:19Yeah.
11:20You'll have to give us a follow, Jo.
11:22Give us a follow.
11:22I know how to do it.
11:23I know how to do it.
11:24Oh, do you?
11:25Well, there we go.
11:25I love how you do that on the carpet.
11:27The people of the hands.
11:28I love it.
11:29Oh, my God.
11:29Fangirl.
11:31Now, I know you didn't last too long
11:33on Fortune Hotel.
11:35You didn't even make it into the hotel.
11:37So, as a little treat,
11:38down the side, just there,
11:40we've got some goodie bags
11:41from the hotel for you.
11:42Oh, my goodness.
11:43A bit of sweet merch.
11:45There's another one as well.
11:45We've got one.
11:46You don't need to share.
11:47You don't need to share.
11:48Everything we can nick,
11:50we've shoved it in the bag.
11:50My daughter's going to try and have this.
11:52Well, we need some toys.
11:54Get it in.
11:54Have the crocodile as well.
11:56Get it in there.
11:57Why not?
11:58Thank you so much.
11:59You are very, very welcome.
12:01Right, before we go,
12:01I have a little exclusive for you all.
12:04Ooh.
12:06Let's take a look at what's in store
12:07for the remaining guests
12:08on the next episode of the Fortune Hotel.
12:13We're going to take a risk.
12:14I'm sorry, guys.
12:15I think we need to find out
12:16what's in those cases, don't you?
12:20I'm going to the bathroom.
12:21Get rid of this water.
12:22Always look at the bigger picture.
12:27What does that mean?
12:28No, Mum, get off it.
12:30Guys, there's more in the sea.
12:31There's still more to get.
12:32We need some help.
12:34They are doing my head in right now.
12:36I think that's pretty suspect.
12:38Bye, sorry.
12:40We're just thinking that.
12:41We have a target on our back.
12:43We don't want to go home.
12:44I'm kind of going to go home.
12:46If they'd wrecked the room,
12:48they could have taken the fortune.
12:50Who is holding the early checkout cards?
12:53Can the pair that are please stand up?
12:56Oh!
12:58Can they look good?
12:59Drama.
12:59So excited.
13:00Who do you think, from your intel,
13:03who do you think are the ones to watch?
13:04Nello and Torpy.
13:06Yeah?
13:06Mm-hmm.
13:07You think they've got eyes on the prize?
13:09They could go all the way.
13:10Yeah.
13:10We discussed this, though.
13:12If we were on there
13:12and we had to give the early checkout card,
13:15I'd find that quite difficult to refer.
13:17You'd feel bad, wouldn't you?
13:18I bet it's intense.
13:19I would have been the villain.
13:21Yeah.
13:22No, I would have been.
13:23Because when you're over there,
13:23you know what it's like
13:25to be suddenly sent home sort of thing.
13:27You don't know.
13:28Everything expected.
13:30And what did you think about Fred and Min?
13:31Did you get to know them much?
13:32You could have looked at them
13:33in a way that they were their oldest,
13:35I think, on the show.
13:36More ex-bevious.
13:37So you might have looked at
13:38maybe in a physical challenge
13:39they might not have done the best.
13:41Oh, excuse me.
13:41I was the eldest.
13:42George, you smashed it and you won.
13:45So you're proving me wrong.
13:48I mean, Gov and Gherk's
13:49quite wanted to get rid of Fred and Min
13:51pretty quickly.
13:52What do you think about that?
13:53Why do you think they would want to do that?
13:54Maybe because they come last?
13:57Yeah, if they're playing further, maybe.
13:59It's hard because it all is...
14:00Yeah, it depends what it comes down to,
14:02if it's the look or if it is,
14:04just if you're coming last.
14:05But, yeah.
14:06We didn't deserve to go.
14:08We didn't.
14:08I thought that too.
14:09But, hey, you've got some fun in the room.
14:11You've got your bag.
14:12I'll sit crying tonight in my dressing room
14:14eating my bag of crisps.
14:16Girls, thank you so much for coming.
14:17It's been lovely to meet you.
14:18Very well.
14:18Thank you for having us.
14:20That's actually all we've got time for on Late Checkout.
14:22Thanks to last year's winners, Joanne and Will,
14:24and our wonderful Wigan duo, Chelsea and Bryony.
14:28And, of course, you lot for joining us.
14:30We'll be back after episode two of Forty Hoats.
14:33Let's get it trending.
14:34For more chats...
14:35It's never going to work, is it?
14:36For more chats with our checked-out guests
14:38and exclusive behind-the-scenes gossip.
14:40We'll see you then.
