Over these nine weeks, three guys who aren't olive pluckers, they're olive pluckers' sons - Michael, Logan & Bindles - will be recapping and breaking down everything that happens as we try and work out who has been given an offer that they couldn't refuse - to become the Mole - beginning with the premiere and elimination of Gillian!
