Rucksacks ready....!

I was wondering the same, the hotels are all high spec, and there's usually a pool etc. However, they only have 24 hours, so who knows?!

PP was only wondering because Bonnie has really immaculate hair and nails.

PP wasn't making any comment on whether they should or not

That's right, thank you.

I thought they had three days at the hotel?

I think it might vary - I'm sure they have said a day before but Alex and his dad were are full 24 hours behind the others thanks to the one ferry a day and we saw them with the other teams. If you arrive late at night you don't start again the next morning so I suspect it's often a couple of nights even if it's only one 'full' day.

Ah thanks. It hasn't been specified this series for how long they are at the hotels.

They still started a day behind and then caught up though.

It's 36 hours. In other series they've had to leave during the night if that was the end of their 36 hours.

Thanks for the link to the article and how it’s made, really interesting. I really like them all, the dynamics between each pair.

The first to arrive seem to always leave at say 9am - so if the gap 14 hours to the last pair they should be leaving at 11pm.

Ooh. Conflict between Harry and Emma. But Austria isn’t cheap.

I like how Harry said his mum gets forgetful when shes tired.. yet asked her if she had the tickets when they were in his bag!

I'm with Emma though - that train ride looks spectacular.

It all looks wonderful <wistful>

I'd be spoilt for choice on routes as want to go to Trieste as well

Is Harry annoying anyone else tonight?

Yes, he's been repeatedly very rude to his Mum

and obviously desperate to win above all else

But Emma is always moaning about how tired she is.

I absolutely loved seeing Billy and Bonny talk about their childhood. Harry and Emma are definitely not doing well when it gets tougher.

It's a real endurance test I bet it's knackering

Emma and Harry are in the lead, aren't they? They'll ease off for the next leg, surely, to give Emma a rest. I think she's had some health problems in the past hence why she's struggling a bit.

I'd be tired too to be fair..

Bonnie is an absolutely amazing sister

I'd be knackered if I'd been on a 19 hour bus ride and then had to scrub the deck of a luxury yacht. And I hate people who always leave at the last minute for everything so you're always rushing/nearly late. So I'm Team Emma here.

What IS the embroidery they are doing?
