Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I'm just hoping that the two girls might start talking in a less annoying wa-aay.

The young girls reaction to India was pretty similar to mine when I landed in Bangalore and walked out of the airport :-)

Only I was a grown ass man in his 30's :-) Place is spectacularly bonkers and I'd recommend it to anyone !!!!

Always. It is TV. They edit. A lot.

Not their fault that they're from the South of England :-)

Fin and Sioned have done a couple of tv appearances together since filming the series, so they are at least still talking...

Having been to India dozens of times (and China a few times), I think China is harder work, but YMMV. Bangalore has changed massively over the last 20 years - the new airport is definitely better than any in the UK, and I'm pretty sure I'd rather be treated at the new (but presumably quite expensive) hospital there than an NHS hospital.

The scenes we've seen of India would have me rocking and in a full on panic attack - total sensory overload.

This is one Race Across The World I'm not feeling jealous for the experience - the hideous food in China, the bare-handed mucking out of the animals - yikes. Plus all the fully booked trains in China would probably have me sobbing a bit :)

Put me in the "India is too much for me" group. I would be a quivering wreck within 48 hours.

Transferred on a bus between Kathmandu and Pokhara once, it was interesting 😆

When I went to Nepal in 2017 Kathmandu was a shock! (Also with cows wandering along the road). I've also done the Kathmandu- Pokhara bus route (we were flown back)

missed the first 15 minutes of last nights episode.

India looks busy!

I still like the brothers, they've done better than I expected them to.

I would fall over like one of them did last night, sort of thing I would do!

The brothers are great. Finn has come into his own on this latest leg, I think, showing huge resilience
