larkim Aug 2024 1:10pm, 16 Aug 2024 25,363 posts	Quote Pin larkim I always get the impression there are rules / constraints that we don't know about which mean they are forced to do some of the activities etc.
paulcook Aug 2024 1:50pm, 16 Aug 2024 6,217 posts	Quote Pin paulcook Oh, I think you're spot on. But those activities are to provide that very tourist content. If I'm in a normal race, I ain't making no 3-day detours to waterfalls, plunge pools, saunas, temples, safari, etc, etc. Or buying wagyu beef, sushi, while on a tight budget. It's cheaper (and different) than flying Judith Chalmers half way around the world on a week-by-week basis.
Big_G 1 May 8:24am, 1 May 2025 4,884 posts	Quote Pin Big_G Is anyone watching the latest series? I’ve seen episode 1 and the route looks like it could be brilliant. I’ve not seen episode 2 yet.
peanut 1 May 9:10am, 1 May 2025 191 posts	Quote Pin peanut Yep I am! Liking the series so far. Felt episode 2 editing could have been better, wasn't clear what routes some pairs took or how they suddenly arrived at some cities.
Ultracat 1 May 12:18pm, 1 May 2025 16,130 posts	Quote Pin Ultracat I am watching, some amazing parts of China shown. Finding the places visited more interesting than the couples racing.

JamieKai chameleon 1 May 9:46pm, 1 May 2025 20,602 posts	Quote Pin JamieKai chameleon We're watching, finding the sisters by far the most watchable pair, also like Caroline (or Carline as they call her) but not her pampered son. The dramatic scenery looks to be the star of the show again though. And the street cats.
Diogenes 1 May 9:49pm, 1 May 2025 91,739 posts	Quote Pin Diogenes I don’t like the posh woman or her son much, the sisters are good but a bit annoying. I like the brothers and the young Welsh couple although she’s showing signs of being a bit of a spoilt princess. There’s something a bit odd about Gaz’s ex.
JamieKai chameleon 1 May 10:08pm, 1 May 2025 20,603 posts	Quote Pin JamieKai chameleon Housemate pointed out that Fin actually went out of his way to upset Sioned, to then take credit for comforting her. Other than that, he's not really done much (other than sport that dreadful 'tache!). They're both so young, it almost feels exploitative having them laid so bare for the cameras. We want the brothers or Gaz & Yin to be first out when it comes to an elimination (really dislike Gaz, too many jokes about being bald, yawn)
peanut 1 May 11:00pm, 1 May 2025 194 posts	Quote Pin peanut I agree. To me it seems Sioned is carrying the team, so I can see why she would get upset/ annoyed sometimes. But it could just be the editing. I wish there wasn't an elimination. I don't think it adds much to the programme.
