2
00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:07,240
Speaker 2: Is the man who walked straight off the Survivor island

3
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 2: and into a bachelor mansion filled with eligible women. We

4
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:12,400
Speaker 2: spoke to him when he was just about to embark

5
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 2: on this journey and it sounded like a dream until,

6
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 2: of course, COVID took over show went into lockdown. The

7
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 2: show is back. How have they managed to survive the

8
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 2: twists and turns of isolation? Let's ask the man himself,

9
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 2: Locky Gilbert.

10
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:29,319
Speaker 3: Hello, good morning guys.

11
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 1: How are we We're great? Locky? Look at you. You're

12
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 1: on the ISD and where are you right now?

13
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 3: I just need to know I'm in Perth?

14
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 1: Perth.

15
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 2: Wow, So you're closed off in Perth? Aren't you that

16
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 2: the borders are closed?

17
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're all closed off over here. Doing pretty well.

18
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 3: When I came over back from Sydney, had to do

19
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 3: the two weeks quarantine and everything, of course, so that

20
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 3: was definitely fun. I'm not an inside person at all.

21
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 2: No, but now Western Australia is once you're there and

22
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 2: you've quarantined, you can go anywhere. You don't have restrictions,

23
00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 2: do you.

24
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 3: No, it's it's pretty good. It's normal life pretty much.

25
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 2: Well, Lokie, let's talk about this experience. So I'm fascinated

26
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 2: to hear how you've managed this because you did a

27
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 2: few weeks of regular filming with all the dates and

28
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 2: the kissing and the whole thing. Then you had to

29
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 2: everyone locked down, you came back in. How are the

30
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 2: rules different second time round?

31
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's definitely been a crazy experience. As you said,

32
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 3: we started as normal crazy dates and just the normal bachelor.

33
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 3: Then we all got sent home. I mean, we went

34
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 3: through the pandemic just as the world did, and we

35
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 3: did love in lockdown where we did dates over zoom. Wow,

36
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 3: it is different. It is strange, but the way it

37
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 3: was shot and the way the producers came up with everything,

38
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 3: it's actually quite fun. Like it was really fun shooting it.

39
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 3: But then it was only a short while and then

40
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 3: we were able to get back in the mansion. We

41
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 3: got all tested and we're in our own little bubble,

42
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 3: and I mean we'll be able to be affectionate and

43
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 3: the kissing and cuddling came back.

44
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: Really so you can sample the wares.

45
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: See, I like for a while that you couldn't sample

46
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 2: the wares that you had to have dates on Zoom,

47
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 2: you had to look at people and evaluate their brains.

48
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 2: I kind of liked that part of Bachelor.

49
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 3: Oh it was something the Bachelor's never done before. And

50
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 3: it was so beneficial to me because when we went home,

51
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 3: we were able to text and talk to each other

52
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 3: just as a normal kind of couple, unless there was

53
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,839
Speaker 3: other girls as well. But you took away the physicality

54
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,359
Speaker 3: of it and you really got down to just emotionally

55
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 3: talking to each other, and it was really nice.

56
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 2: Did you find it all that when you stepped away?

57
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 2: Feelings changed. I'm an impulse buyer, and if I want

58
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 2: to buy something on the day, i'd buy it. If

59
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 2: I go home and think about it, I changed my

60
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 2: mind entirely. Did separation make any difference for you?

61
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 3: I don't know about difference, but people did, like really

62
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 3: come out and then I really got to know the

63
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 3: real person. Then feelings for other people really started growing.

64
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:54,239
Speaker 3: And it was because you go from spending ten minutes

65
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 3: with someone on a couch had a cocktail party to

66
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 3: talking on the phone to them for like three hours. Wow.

67
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 1: What about the girl was dressed in a penguin suit?

68
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, she is really amazing. You gotta have like confidence

69
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 3: to be able to do that.

70
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,959
Speaker 2: Why did she dress like a penguin? She loves penguins, right,

71
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 2: she would have looked well dressed.

72
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: What did you do? Take it down to SeaWorld and

73
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:18,959
Speaker 1: throw some fish?

74
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 2: She loves the seafood meal.

75
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 3: When I saw that, it was quite like. It was

76
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 3: quite good because like, you're so nervous and everyone's coming

77
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 3: down and you see a penguin walking down in, just

78
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 3: all your stress goes.

79
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, and hers too. She didn't have to wear the

80
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 2: spanx that night and.

81
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: Ref Yeah, it got a bit of a gutty old.

82
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 2: You can let it all hang out. And if you

83
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: go on to have babies with her, she'll just nest

84
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 2: them on her feet.

85
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 3: Well, a male penguin nests the babies.

86
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: That's right.

87
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: Are you prepared for that? Loggiere gonna have to sit

88
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: on the nest? Yeah, I guess so lucky back on

89
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: the nest.

90
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 2: Let me ask you this. Everyone asks, I know, but

91
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 2: have you found the one?

92
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 3: I have found the one? Going into it, like I

93
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 3: knew I was going to find a connection and someone

94
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 3: that like I wanted to continue continue dating. But the

95
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 3: feeling I have now is like I'm so in love.

96
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 3: I'm so happy and I'm I'm so ready for for

97
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 3: life together.

98
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 2: Well, that's nice, that is nice.

99
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: Peng lady, don't say that.

100
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 2: Might be might be you never know.

101
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 3: It could be penguin lady.

102
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 2: Wouldn't it be? Penguin lady. She's hard to pash with

103
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 2: a beak sure and regurgitating your meals down your throat.
