Race Across the World

[Liquorandvinegar]

New series starting next week - really looking forward to it. The teams are travelling in Asia, but I can't find information about the couples yet. Wednesday nights sorted!

Yes can’t wait! My friend and I applied for this one. Goodness knows how many people must apply. What a fantastic route. Can’t wait 🙌🏼

What's the route?

Looks like it’s China, Nepal and India.

Can’t wait !

apparently there’s an ex married couple racing

That should make interesting viewing.

Just to clarify, had they split before the Race or were they still together at the beginning?

Thanks for the thread, excited for this

Hello, just marking my place as a RATW faithful. See you all on Wednesday!

Very excited!!

Joining again for this year. Glad to have RATW back for another season!

Fab! See you then

Just marking my place ready for the off. So looking forward to it.

Marking my place too - can’t wait!

Great!

Can’t wait for this to start - love it!

I read something that they had split and she was with a new partner. The new partner died and she roped him into doing RATW with her to work through her grief.

Sounds interesting!

I’m looking forward to it too!

Yaay! Cant wait :)

Really enjoying Pilgrimage at the moment. Travel, beautiful scenery, interesting people, a sort of RATW "aperitif" 😄.

Following as I love the series. Must watch Pilgrimage as well as it's always good too.

Getting ready here

Anyone else watching?
