Blind task is eye-opener for group

Most of the housemates had developed a new understanding of Mikey’s condition by the halfway point of today’s 'Blind Leading The Blind' task.

As half the group removed their goggles, Rebecca complained that she felt "really tired" from being in the dark for so long.

"You can hear everything," she said. "It’s really weird."

Stuart said he found it hard to adjust to his surroundings, saying "everything seems huge" when blindfolded.

Lisa struggled to comprehend how Mikey managed to cross roads or walk down busy streets.

"I’d have to have someone constantly there," she said. "They’d have to be dead caring."

"You just need to have your wits about you," explained Mikey.

"How would you have a relationship?" pondered Lisa. "It affects everything."
