Published: Aug. 21, 2014, 6:55 a.m.

\n

\xa0This week Jessica and Emma Bailey recap episode two of the BBC\u2019s new show Tumble. We consider these important topics:

\n
    \n
  • What time to arrive at the BBC One studio if you want to be in the live studio audience for Tumble.
  • \n
  • Would the American post-Olympic tour benefit from hiring the Tumble creators?
  • \n
  • The tear-jerking, beauty of the \u201cButterfly\u201d performance by Beth Tweddle featuring some of our favorite junior elite gymnasts from the British squad.
  • \n
  • Which gymnasts (hint, Simone Biles) should wear Lucy Mecklenburgh\u2019s green leotard from this week\u2019s show?
  • \n
  • We speculate on the veracity of the incompetence demonstrated by the celebrities during their practices.
  • \n
  • Does Sarah Harding have poor cardio or is she just unaware that her mouth is hanging open throughout her performance?
  • \n
  • Claudia Fragapane gave great advice and the English champions from the commonwealth games
  • \n
  • Was the romance storyline between Kristin Allen and Bobby Lockwood, just a ruse to throw us off of the H Watkins and John Partridge, romance?
  • \n
  • Natalia Ilienko shed tears\xa0after the show.
  • \n
  • Determine that everything in life should come down to a \u201cVault Off\u201d
  • \n
  • Nastia\u2019s triceps and gorgeous arm muscles.
  • \n
  • Alex cuts off Louis Smith and Jessica is enraged!
  • \n
  • Is the quality of this show greatly improved because of the variety of professionals from different gymnastics disciplines \u2014 acrobatics, circus, artistic etc.
  • \n
  • Two contestants were members of the Royal Ballet - not normal humans, these are super athletes.
  • \n
  • We predict Amelle will be the last woman standing.
