Anyone planning on watching this?

Rob Brydon hosts as contestants are driven around Europe in a blacked out bus, trying to guess where they are. I’ve seen clips of the US Version, it might be good!

That was the most obvious clue ever

LIZS · 31/07/2025 21:37

Just how many people were in that cablecar in the long shot! 10+

BlueyNeedsToFuckOff · 31/07/2025 21:38

That word is part of Matterhorn, surely?

RockaLock · 31/07/2025 21:39

Or maybe the final destination will just be the Matterhorn, given that’s where at least 2 clues now have been for.

Yes, that’s what we immediately thought.

Must be - contestants, camera crew plus however many people are needed for health and safety for the abseiling and climbing

RockaLock · 31/07/2025 21:41

Oh, so now they’re driving for miles and miles. So it’s the same as e1: all the clues have been for the Matterhorn, but they’ll end up somewhere else?

SwedishEdith · 31/07/2025 21:42

Lake Annecy is France. The alpha males needing to compete with each other.

BlueyNeedsToFuckOff · 31/07/2025 21:43

Unless the clues were for Switzerland and the final destination is the Matterhorn but after last episode they needed to make everything much more obvious

PersephoneSmith · 31/07/2025 21:44

I’m genuinely disappointed, it was more than a bit shit. I’m going to watch the first episode of the US series and see if it’s any better, the reviews do seem to suggest it is.

BlueyNeedsToFuckOff · 31/07/2025 21:44

And now we’re channeling Love Island

SwedishEdith · 31/07/2025 21:45

Do they just need to go for the capital city of each country? This group don't seem like they'd know them all and Switzerland isn't that obvious.

SwedishEdith · 31/07/2025 21:46

Watching Americans do Europe might be interesting - maybe they may know more than these Brits.

Hard for them to know less

BlueyNeedsToFuckOff · 31/07/2025 21:50

I like Judith’s approach - clearly no idea so just goes for the middle of the country. That’s reasonable tactically at this stage

SwedishEdith · 31/07/2025 21:50

I'm looking for the Matterhorn on the map and it's right on the Italian border.

DogsAndBirds · 31/07/2025 21:52

It was going to be on the Italian boarder as wasn’t there an Italian flag in the cable car?

BlueyNeedsToFuckOff · 31/07/2025 21:52

Oh no. Poor Dawn.

SwedishEdith · 31/07/2025 21:55

Nick had worked it out though.

BlueyNeedsToFuckOff · 31/07/2025 21:56

If this was The Traitors they’d definitely all be murdering Nick tonight

flightoftheconkers · 31/07/2025 21:57

I'm still not getting this! Is the 'place your X' bit different to episode one?

bizzey · 31/07/2025 22:01

Ok...
Well today was easier clues...I actually understood them all 😅

RockaLock · 31/07/2025 22:01

Frustrating. So last night, all the clues were for a specific region in France (Alsace) and then they ended up in Paris (just a couple,r of clues for that).

whereas tonight the clues were for Switzerland in general, and the Matterhorn specifically - so we thought the Matterhorn clues were like the Alsace clues yesterday, and that they would end up somewhere else. No consistency with how it’s working!

PuppyMonkey · 31/07/2025 22:04

I got the Matterhorn from the map clue but I’d have probably never been able to find it on the map.Confused

NCTDN · 31/07/2025 22:04

I thought that was a much better episode. I already thought Switzerland last night after rob brydon said you’d need a multi function knife then I saw the anagram for Matterhorn.
It’s not a programme you can watch and be on mn at the same time though because you miss something !
