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!

How are they so stupid to leave money!

I hope he gave her a tip!

I though Thomas might be the person who would have the lost money drama

the sisters are losing a lot of time and money

Bored with back stories, just not interested

Tom is infuriating. ‘I won’t do it again’ - mate, you have before, what’s different now?

Exactly! I feel like they’ve really wasted a space on the show with these two!

I guess now we know Tom was a privileged drop out, they may have thought he'd somehow turn his life around, there be some redemption arc type story.

Can see Yin and Gaz making the time up.

Wonder if exchanging foreign cash like that is legal in China?

Why are the sisters worried about being eliminated?

Tom must be strong running and carrying his mums bag as well as his own.

Damn and blast.

Noooooo not Yin and Gaz

Bugger! I like Yin & Gaz

Shame! I liked them.

This is why I hate the elimination round.

I'm also distracted by who Caroline keeps reminding of. I'm thinking Princess Michael now.

Yin and Gaz were just too far behind at the last checkpoint.

i was hoping Thomas would have lost his moneybelt permanently

Such a shame for Yin and Gaz. I really liked them.

Tom said he was a labourer so I guess he's used to carrying things.

I'm also sad Yin and Gaz went out but the delay from the typhoon left them with too much lag to catch up on. I reckon the producers told them them wouldn't make up the time hence stopping in Maoming, as weren't they supposed to transfer there at 1am or did I misunderstand?

Me too. 😕

She reminds me of the mum/ queen in the Christmas Prince crappy/ guilty pleasure film series on Netflix

She reminded me of Thatcher.

I would hate to not be allowed to finish the leg. I really hope Yin & Gaz got to finish the leg off camera, even though they had already lost.

A bit like sports day races. You don't intercept the one in last place and tell them to get off the track, you cheer them over the finish line.

Boo. It’s so unfair they were eliminated because they were so far behind due to the storm stopping all public transport last week. Surely that was unusual circumstances, not just them making bad transport decisions or running out of money etc. I demand an enquiry.

Wish there wasn't an elimination 😢

So he went to boarding school, got kicked out and didn’t even do GCSEs?!

She's definitely central European regal / aristocratic looking.
