They’ve changed the names of the guards and contestants too. That’s the one good thing Comedy Central did right - employ an actual translator to get the names correct. Then Spain changes them for no reason.
But, you know, those translations are made to make it funnier. Changing the names was a common thing, both in Telecinco in the 90's as well as in Cuatro in 2006.

Not all of them. Spud wasn't called "Weawtar."
Although I guess the name doesn't make sense in English. Is that why they changed it?

So did they have a new episode today? That's what it seemed like on a YouTube-upload by Comedy Central (the Slip Way one), but then they could just be five days late from last episode!

These has not appeared yet, they done it before posting stuff before it actually airs.
Wet Paint is to appear in tonight's episode according to the description, Maybe it's the point like in the Challenge series so if it's true it might be original episode 20 next week?

Oh okay
It could also be the 18th episode (and if the slope is foamy, it definitely is), which would keep to their developing pattern of skipping odd-numbered episodes!

Re: Takeshi's Castle Thailand WILL air in the Uk...
I watched last night’s episode, as I had nothing better to do. He’s definitely been told to put more energy in and sound less like he’s reading everything. Although at one point he said something along the lines of “that’s something I never thought I’d read out”. How about you don’t rely on a script then?
Also during Berry Bayou: “I’ve just been informed that these red balls are actually berries, which makes even less sense”. The only place they’d have seen them called berries is in our site
And it does make sense, because that’s what Craig used to call them in Blueberry Hill. Back before Comedy Central destroyed the show.
Also: “Five sumo rings, four fighters”. In what world does that make sense? Four fighters because you cut Pauline out.

Re: Takeshi's Castle Thailand WILL air in the Uk...
It's like that on most Sumo rings and Tug of War nowadays where they show only 3 or 4 of the guards. Not keen on the part where they show the farewell to the losing contestants though even though that started in Series 2, Episode 2.

Is it always Pauline that they cut-out? Or do they change the one they don't show each time?

They change the one (or ones) they don't show each time. On Episode 3's Tug of War the elephant was not shown or mentioned.
