00:00Welcome back, Fortune Hotel VIPs.
00:02The minibar is fully stocked, the pillows are fluffed,
00:05and it's time for Late Checkout with me, Ellie Taylor.
00:08Think of us as the digestif to the main show's Michelin-star meal.
00:12Tonight, we'll be unpacking every bit of that tension-filled episode,
00:15including chat with checked-out guests Alan, Jacob, James and Yasmin.
00:20And an exclusive tease of what's in store for the guests
00:22on the next episode of the Fortune Hotel.
00:25It's time for Late Checkout.
00:30Well, that was Coco Nuts.
00:34Can't wait to crack it open for all the juicy drama.
00:37Speaking of which, in that episode,
00:40we saw Sue do a dramatic reading of her favourite Olly Murs song.
00:44My heart skipped a beat.
00:47Very moving, very moving.
00:49James and Yasmin thought the prices of the hotel menus were laughable.
00:53A ten grand slice of pie.
00:54Oh, my God.
00:56Remember in the last episode when Fred said this?
00:58A peep is knowledge.
01:01A peep is power.
01:02Hmm.
01:03Well, it turns out Min doesn't need any more knowledge or power, thank you.
01:06Ta-da!
01:08My eyes!
01:11But enough of all that.
01:12We'll be joined by James and Yasmin later in the show,
01:15but first we're chatting to the pair who were all teeth and tash.
01:18Mega threats, Alan and Jacob.
01:21Here's their final moments at the Fortune Hotel.
01:23We want to swap with Alan and Jacob.
01:30Winning some money!
01:32So, we got given the early checkout card.
01:36We want to swap our case with Alan and Jacob.
01:39Would the unfortunates please stand up now?
01:42One pair will be going home, and that pair will be decided with a vote.
01:53Oh, my God.
01:54That's me.
01:55We voted for Alan and Jacob.
01:57You're just very strong.
01:59We've gone for Alan and Jacob.
02:00So, with a broken heart, we've chosen to send her Alan and Jacob.
02:04It's Alan and Jacob, everybody!
02:13I could hear you saying during that VT, absolutely raging.
02:16Yeah, absolutely fuming.
02:18Like, we thought we had a friendship going on.
02:19This threw us right under the bus.
02:21Well, there was a lot of emotion, though, with Maz and Max.
02:23Yeah.
02:23Did you buy it?
02:25We did, actually.
02:26Oh, OK.
02:28No.
02:29No, we did.
02:29We built a good friendship with them guys, so it hurt a little.
02:33It burnt.
02:34We were like...
02:35It's so funny, because we didn't think that that second early checkout card was there.
02:40And then I think you can see it in my face when they're like,
02:42can the unfortunates stand up?
02:44And I saw Fred and Min stand up.
02:45I was like, oh, it's not ours.
02:47And then there's like, there's two.
02:48And I'm like, oh.
02:49Oh, it is ours.
02:51So, talk us through your emotions, then, when that will happen,
02:53when you saw both of you standing there,
02:55then it came down to another vote.
02:57Like, what's that all about?
02:59We couldn't believe it.
03:00When we saw both couples stand up.
03:02Yeah.
03:02And then we were told there was a vote.
03:04We thought we're safe.
03:05Like, we've got good friends in here.
03:06We're safe.
03:07Fred and Min, everyone likes Fred and Min,
03:09but they've just, like, skated along.
03:10So, we felt like we would have been protected.
03:13I guess, looking back, it makes sense.
03:14But in the moment, I was like,
03:16Fred and Min, of course they're going to go.
03:18Yeah.
03:18I mean, that's the problem.
03:19Maybe you were seen as just too much of a threat, right?
03:22Yeah.
03:22And I think from the second that we got reception desk
03:24and that first task, we were like,
03:28shit, have we just, like, put a target on her back straight away?
03:32Yeah, yeah.
03:33And I was like, Jake, you got it too quick.
03:35Why didn't you drag it out?
03:36He's like, well, I couldn't risk it.
03:38Do you think behind your back,
03:41alliances had sort of shifted before you entered that room?
03:45I think we were a bit naive to the alliances.
03:47Yeah.
03:47I was saying before, I think we've got commitment issues.
03:50I think Fred and Min sat at one point and they were like,
03:52we'll get in an alliance with you.
03:54We were like, no.
03:55And then I think James and Yaz would not say at one point as well.
03:59We were like, no, we're fine.
04:01But then Ashley, who were the mugs, we were.
04:03Yeah.
04:04It seemed like Nella and Toppe and Maz and Max sort of came for you.
04:08Together, in a way.
04:09Yes.
04:09Yeah.
04:10Definitely.
04:10Nella and Toppe are like, Alan and Jake are our biggest threats.
04:14And then Maz or Max goes, yeah, they'll shaft us.
04:18I was like, oh, you shafted us, babe.
04:20Don't worry.
04:21And it's quite funny because that night we were like,
04:23yeah, we're not going home.
04:24Our mates have got us.
04:25Yeah.
04:26So we were maybe a little bit, like, confident
04:28that we weren't going to go anywhere, but we did.
04:30I mean, that's what makes it such a good game.
04:32You just, you never know what's going to happen.
04:34You really don't.
04:35Right.
04:35Now for something you'll only get on late checkout.
04:37Once the drinks were downed, our checked out guests
04:40got a golden briefcase with all the intel.
04:43So where the fortune ended up and who currently is in control?
04:47Alan and Jacob, let's see your reaction
04:49to the truth in our gold case reveal.
04:55Right.
04:55Let's see what is in here.
04:57You ready?
04:58Yeah.
04:58Right.
04:58Open it for me.
04:59The original fortune holders were Jake and Mike.
05:05The fortune then moved to Fred and Min and the current fortune holders
05:08at Nella and Topley.
05:10We had this all along.
05:12We had it bang right.
05:13We had it all along.
05:15So we had the money tonight and we had the money last night.
05:20We should have played a dangerous game last night.
05:21Oh, I'm fuming.
05:22We played it too safe.
05:24Oh!
05:26You had the money.
05:27You held it.
05:28How did it feel to find that out?
05:31We knew it at the time.
05:32We knew it was sitting at our feet.
05:34And it was so funny because when it sat at our feet,
05:35it was almost like, I felt like it was bubbling at our feet.
05:37I was like, we've got it.
05:38Play cool, play cool.
05:39Yeah.
05:39And then when we got it, like we got it that night
05:42that we got voted off, we were so confident
05:44that we weren't going to go anywhere.
05:45We're like, no one's onto this.
05:47I think because we played it so safe the night before,
05:48we was like, we have to just try and chase a fortune.
05:51Yeah.
05:51Obviously, that second early checkout card screwed us over.
05:54Do you think chasing a fortune was your downfall, ultimately?
05:58I think we played it too safe.
05:59Oh, really?
06:00Yeah.
06:00Yeah, definitely.
06:02Because the night before when they gave it to us
06:05and we knew they'd given it to us
06:06because I think we were onto them,
06:08we just panicked because James and Yasmin
06:10had said to us in the van that day,
06:12oh, we know where the money is.
06:14So when we had it and they were the swap after us,
06:17we were like, and they had the early checkout card.
06:19So we were like, they're just going to give us
06:20the early checkout card, just get rid of the money.
06:22But I don't actually know in hindsight
06:24if they did know where the money was.
06:27Everyone thinks they do.
06:28Right.
06:29And then they discover it, don't they?
06:30Yeah.
06:31Let's talk about Fred and Min.
06:32Do you think they were very strategically clever
06:34or was it mostly just luck?
06:36Look.
06:37Oh.
06:38No doubt.
06:40Blimey.
06:41Do you want to think about that?
06:42No.
06:43I think, look, they're such nice people.
06:46I feel like the look couldn't have happened
06:48to the better people.
06:49And we had a bond with them from day dot,
06:51actually, which we didn't see coming,
06:53if that makes sense.
06:54Like, they're not people that, I guess,
06:56we would ever think we would meet in the outside world.
06:58We were so interested, the first time we met them,
07:00Min came running up to us like,
07:01you guys are cabin crew, I can tell straight away,
07:03like, I used to be cabin crew.
07:04So she got the whole, like, crew reference straight away.
07:06So we had a good bond with them, guys.
07:08Do you think, looking back on it,
07:09was there one move that sealed your fate, do you think,
07:11if you could change one thing?
07:13Oh, gosh, that's a big question.
07:15You know, you were so close to winning the Day Trip Challenge.
07:18That could have changed quite a lot, couldn't it,
07:20if James and Yasmin hadn't just picked it at the end.
07:22And we changed our minds at the very last minute.
07:25We were like, no, let's change destinations.
07:28And we were going to the right place,
07:30and we ended up in the wrong place.
07:31And I just think, if we had got that,
07:33we would have got the money that night,
07:34I think it would have changed the whole course of the game.
07:36Yeah, for sure.
07:37Who do you think is playing smart in the hotel,
07:39and who do you think is playing safe?
07:41Nella and Toppy are very smart.
07:42Very smart.
07:42They are so smart.
07:43And I said it from day one,
07:45they were smiling assassins.
07:47They know exactly what they're doing.
07:48100%.
07:49Who's playing it safe?
07:50Safe is Martina and Bryony.
07:52Oh, yeah.
07:53I don't think they're adding too much.
07:56Don't say that.
07:57Don't say that.
07:58I'm sorry.
07:59Oh!
08:01He is inside!
08:05Girl, are you being bitchy?
08:06No, I think,
08:10and they're very honest.
08:11I think they know it.
08:12They're just kind of coasting.
08:14And that's what we should have done,
08:15so we're the mugs.
08:16Yeah, exactly.
08:17I mean, it sounds like you had a great time.
08:19I was the best.
08:20The best time.
08:21And to be able to say you did it together.
08:23Yeah.
08:23Yes.
08:24That's lovely.
08:25That's really lovely.
08:26Right, we are stepping away
08:27for a short housekeeping break.
08:28But when we're back,
08:29we're going to get Stephen's
08:30exclusive nightcap recap.
08:32And James and Yasmin will be here
08:34joining the gang,
08:35so we'll see you in a few.
08:40Welcome back to Late Checkout,
08:48the minibar snack of the main show.
08:50Small, tasty,
08:50and a little more expensive
08:51than you expected.
08:53Alan and Jacob are still here,
08:54and soon we'll be chatting
08:55to James and Yasmin
08:57about their time
08:57at the Fortune Hotel.
08:58But first,
08:59here's an exclusive.
09:01So every night
09:01at the Lady Luck bar,
09:03there's one man
09:03pulling the strings
09:04like a cocktail-shaking,
09:06linen-clad puppet master.
09:08And after every nightcap,
09:09we collared him
09:10for the inside scoop.
09:11So here's Stephen Mangan
09:13with his take on the drama.
09:20So Yasmin has gone.
09:22Yasmin,
09:23well, Yasmin and James have gone,
09:25but Yasmin was the only one
09:26in the room,
09:26which I have to say,
09:29it's a really tough game,
09:31even when you have
09:31your partner by your side.
09:33I can't imagine
09:33how hard it was
09:35for Yasmin
09:35to be there
09:36on her own
09:38and to feel that vulnerable
09:39and then get picked
09:40to leave.
09:42I mean,
09:42she was joking
09:43that it was actually easier
09:43without her dad
09:44because she got to make
09:45all the decisions.
09:46But I think that's tough.
09:48That's tough.
09:49Yasmin and James
09:50have taken a couple of people
09:51out in the past.
09:52They've had the early checker card
09:53and had to do that,
09:54had to wield the axe.
09:57And I think they found it
09:58pretty traumatic.
10:00But having said that,
10:02Fred and Min
10:02didn't look bothered
10:04in the slightest
10:05by kicking out
10:06James and Yasmin,
10:07not bothered at all.
10:11James and Yasmin,
10:12everybody!
10:16It's so lovely
10:17to have you here.
10:17It's interesting
10:17watching Stephen,
10:18isn't it,
10:18sort of dissect it
10:19because he's playing along.
10:20He doesn't know either.
10:21Yeah, it is interesting.
10:22So tell us,
10:23did you have a game plan
10:24going into the show?
10:25What was your strategy?
10:26Was there one?
10:27We were winging it.
10:27We were winging it.
10:28We were winging it
10:29the entire way.
10:30We didn't really have
10:31a game plan strategy.
10:33My strategy was
10:34I just wanted to stay.
10:35It's what an amazing
10:36thing to do.
10:36So I just wanted
10:37to stay there.
10:38Yeah, I mean,
10:38you did win the hotel challenge.
10:41You had the fortune.
10:42Yeah.
10:43How was that,
10:44holding that case?
10:45Unbelievable.
10:46It was crazy.
10:46I've never seen that much.
10:48It was unbelievable.
10:49We don't know
10:50what that feels like.
10:52You were giving it.
10:53They tried giving it,
10:54you guys.
10:54They were like,
10:55no, we don't want it.
10:56We don't want it.
10:57I'll give back.
10:59Well, you made,
11:00you know,
11:01a sort of an alliance
11:02with Nella and Toppe,
11:03but you didn't tell them
11:04that you had the fortune.
11:06Do you think,
11:06in hindsight,
11:07that's maybe something
11:07you should have done?
11:10Uh, no.
11:11No.
11:12No.
11:13We knew we had to keep
11:14things close to our chest
11:16at that point.
11:16Yeah.
11:17That was probably
11:17the only game plan
11:18that we really had
11:19at that point.
11:20Yeah, when we got...
11:21Wasn't it?
11:21So, that was it, really.
11:23Did you feel the pressure
11:23sort of ramp up
11:24when you had the fortune?
11:25Yeah.
11:26Yeah, it was insane
11:27how much pressure it was.
11:27You don't realise it
11:28until you actually
11:29get the money
11:30and you open the case
11:31and then your next task
11:33is, I've just got to
11:34try to keep hold of it.
11:35By any means possible,
11:36just try to keep hold of it.
11:38Which is harder
11:39than we thought
11:39we were going to be.
11:40We did great.
11:41It must be so hard there
11:42because you're sort of
11:44under scrutiny
11:45the whole time.
11:45Do you feel very
11:46sort of conscious
11:47of people observing
11:48your every move?
11:49You feel like
11:50everything gets...
11:51Everybody's watching, yeah.
11:52Every minute little detail
11:54gets...
11:55Analyzed?
11:55Analyzed and everything.
11:57Well, at the time
11:57you came down to breakfast,
11:59do you remember
11:59what James said
12:00and you read into that?
12:01Yeah.
12:01Yeah.
12:01I thought he said it.
12:02He said,
12:02oh, I'm so tired
12:03I feel hungover
12:04and I thought
12:04you only get alcohol
12:05if you've won the money
12:06and I'm like...
12:07That worked!
12:07I was fine on it.
12:08Literally,
12:09he's like,
12:09didn't he?
12:10Yeah.
12:11She sat at breakfast
12:11and he was like,
12:12he's hungover.
12:13They've got the cash.
12:14They've got the cash.
12:15He's hungover.
12:17He's hungover.
12:18And of course,
12:18in the last nightcap,
12:20you were there by yourself,
12:20Yasmin,
12:21and it wasn't quite a slight...
12:22It feels quite a lot of pressure.
12:24Oh, yeah.
12:24Did you really feel that,
12:26just being there by yourself?
12:27Yeah, it's a very intense
12:28environment anyway
12:30and I was so nervous
12:32going in
12:32because me and Dad
12:33had talked about
12:34what we were going to do
12:35and all I'd said was,
12:37I just want to go in,
12:38make Dad proud,
12:38do the best that I can
12:39for us to stay.
12:40You did.
12:41You did.
12:41You did well.
12:42Even though I kind of knew
12:43there's a chance
12:44that we were going
12:44because we'd kind of figured out
12:46that we were going early on.
12:47So it was just nerve-wracking
12:49and it was hard.
12:50I was just sat there,
12:51I was like,
12:51please hurry up,
12:51everybody talk
12:52and swap so I can get out the room.
12:54Yeah.
12:55Do you think,
12:55in hindsight,
12:55is there anything you could have done
12:56to have changed that
12:57or do you just think
12:58Fred and Min
12:58were just going to go for you?
12:59We knew from the morning
13:00when we sat down with them
13:02and we had our chat,
13:03we'd figured it out
13:04before we'd even gone
13:05to the next challenge.
13:07We'd said,
13:07haven't we,
13:08we need to go,
13:09we need to be above
13:10Fred and Min
13:11otherwise we're gone.
13:12Well, you did do so well.
13:14Well done with that,
13:14you've got there.
13:15Nice work, sister.
13:16Right, earlier,
13:17we got to see
13:18Alan and Jacob's reaction
13:19to the gold case reveal.
13:20So let's see
13:21how you guys reacted
13:23to the journey
13:24of the fortune case.
13:31The original fortune holders
13:33were Jake and Mike.
13:35The fortune then moved
13:37to Fred and Min.
13:38Yeah.
13:38Then Nella and Toppy
13:39and the current fortune holders
13:41are Maz and Max.
13:43I knew it.
13:45I told you they'd been banking
13:46all that money.
13:47They'd been
13:47rolling in the dollar base.
13:49And he was going on to me
13:50about lying.
13:51Yeah.
13:51What are you doing,
13:52Freddy boy?
13:53Yeah.
13:54And he was...
13:55I couldn't have done it
13:56with anybody else,
13:57you know,
13:57because I wouldn't have
13:57known where anything was.
14:00You'd have left a lot sooner
14:01if you didn't have me.
14:02I don't know.
14:04Hey!
14:06That is true.
14:06That's true.
14:07Yeah.
14:08Brutal.
14:09I love it.
14:10I want lying on it.
14:11I don't know.
14:12I don't know.
14:14Do you think
14:15Fred and Min
14:15are dark horses then?
14:17Are people under
14:17estimating them?
14:18How much
14:20can you underestimate
14:21luck?
14:22Yeah.
14:22Ooh!
14:23That's a good way to put it.
14:23Do you think it is luck
14:24more than tactic?
14:25Yeah.
14:26Total luck.
14:26Total luck.
14:27Total luck.
14:28There were things
14:28that went on
14:29that I just was like...
14:31Only Fred and Min.
14:32As in.
14:33Like when we did the puzzle one.
14:36Yeah.
14:36Everybody had picked
14:37their chest
14:38and the one chest
14:38gave a laugh.
14:40Gave them the first spot.
14:42And why were they dancing?
14:43Because they got another take.
14:44Because they got another take.
14:46You actually really learned
14:47Fred and Min didn't you?
14:47Yeah, we named it
14:48to Fred and Win.
14:49They always win.
14:51Well, you did so well.
14:52You made it so far.
14:54Unfortunately,
14:55not right to the end,
14:55but like you said,
14:56you were there for the experience.
14:58Did you have a magical time?
14:59It was amazing.
15:00Oh, it was amazing.
15:00Some of the stuff we did
15:01was like...
15:02The bit on that yacht,
15:04I'll never forget
15:05that bit on the yacht.
15:06Yeah, that was brilliant.
15:07Popping that champagne.
15:08And waiting to you guys
15:09on the beat.
15:10Bye!
15:10For somebody that lives
15:12four miles away
15:13from where they were born
15:14to be on a yacht
15:15in Grenada.
15:17Never done a long
15:17old flight before
15:18in my life.
15:19To be there,
15:20just...
15:21It was insane.
15:22Mega.
15:23Mega.
15:23Oh, Dad.
15:26We loved you.
15:27We loved watching you.
15:28Right, thanks for coming, guys.
15:30Lovely to talk to you.
15:31That's nearly it
15:32for late checkout,
15:33but before we go,
15:33time for an exclusive tease
15:35at what's in store
15:36for the guests
15:37on the next episode
15:38of The Fortune Hotel.
15:42The pair holding the fortune
15:44will no longer
15:46be able to withdraw
15:47£10,000 from the case.
15:50It's not about the money
15:51at this stage now.
15:52It's about eradicating people.
15:54Jeremy and Sue
15:54are the main threats
15:55to our lives currently.
15:58Can't wait to destroy them.
16:01Come on, then.
16:02Shut up!
16:03Is that Martina and Bryony
16:05getting on the boat
16:06that we've just run
16:07to get to?
16:09Throughout this game,
16:10we've been nice.
16:12Is this the right time
16:13to be nice?
16:15Oh, my goodness, Jeremy.
16:16Yeah, this evening's
16:17going to kick off.
16:18I'm absolutely fuming.
16:21I cannot even look
16:23at either of them
16:24in the eye.
16:28It's ramping up,
16:29so they can no longer
16:30take £10,000 out.
16:32Do you think
16:32that would change things?
16:34Yeah.
16:34Yeah, massively.
16:36I would have thought so.
16:37Yeah, people are going
16:38to start hunting
16:38for money now.
16:39Proper on at that point
16:40until, you know,
16:42people are, like,
16:43proper dialed in,
16:44wanting the big money.
16:46Is it weird?
16:47In a selfish way,
16:47I'm like,
16:48good, I'm glad you
16:48can't take any money now.
16:50I didn't get any money.
16:51You shouldn't get any money.
16:54So do you think
16:54alliances are going
16:55to break under this, right?
16:57I think it depends
16:58how strong people's
16:59alliances are.
17:00And if they break,
17:01they're obviously
17:01not that strong.
17:02Absolutely.
17:03I mean,
17:04how strong can any alliance
17:05really be ultimately, right?
17:06You've got to be
17:07in it for yourself.
17:09Right,
17:09things are getting
17:10really interesting.
17:10Thank you to my guests,
17:12Alan, Jacob,
17:13James and Yasmin,
17:14and of course,
17:14to you lot for watching.
17:16We'll be back soon
17:17for more chats
17:17with our checked out guests
17:18and exclusive
17:19behind the scenes gossip.
17:21We'll see you then.
17:33We'll see you then.
