So we are half through now. 5 episodes left to the final, seems a little short. If its 5 weeks left then we only have 10 new arrivals left if every week we see two new arrivals. I wonder however if this changes for the last week as we have seen old shipwreckers return for the last week and the hawks returned for the last week last year. Wonder if this year will be something completley differnt.

I thought we had longer than 5 more weeks left. I think the island weeks are shorter so you fit more of them into 10 weeks, so more than 10 episodes.

10 weeks isnt long enough....

Shipwrecked needs to go back to its no frills 5 months 1 weekly new arrival and loyal tribal identities this series is a complete let down and tbh 08 was only marginally better then 09.

I want to see island communties with loyal tribe members pontoon races rule breaking/breakings and more air time !!

yeh i was reading the episodes for 2006 on wikipedia, and so much more happened, there was so many love triangles, pontoon races, meetings on the pontoons and things, and i remember when katie and charlie didnt wana leave, it seemed sad coz they'd been there for so long.

There will be 16 episodes because each island week is 4 days.

i agree its too short. even if they just topped it up by another 2 weeks it would then be 3 months and i think maybe that would seem a more substantial amount of time.

then again, im sure by the time  the originals this yr came to leaving it probably felt like theyd been there a v long time. 10 weeks doesnt seem long back in england but i bet it would feel like more than "a long holiday" to those out there...

Maybe an extra episode, as the final week is normally shown over 2 episodes.

Far too short, I can't believe the series is almost over and yet feel I don't know the names of more than 5 shipwreckers without glancing at this site!!

The Apprentice is only into its 3rd/4th show and yet I already feel that I've seen lots more of it than Shipwrecked!
