[The Saucepan Man]

Once I get an idea in my head, it's diffcult to shake it.

++ GANDALF

For all the reasons already stated by those who voted for him yesterday. And not only does he mysteriously sneak off at critical moments. When he is participating he is holding the other contestants back. They simply rely on his magic, and so their ingenuity and skills are not being tested. It's all very well magically kindling the firewood, but I'd like to see them try lighting a fire in the rain without Gandalf to help them. And his tricksy way with words is displaying itself in very sly behaviour. He has already tricked the Trolls into giving him all their mutton rations, and he had Beorn completely confused about the number of contestants left. He is a dangerous fellow and needs to be removed in order that other, more worthy, contestant may shine.
