Celebrity Race Across the World

[Halsall]

Anyone watching? I couldn’t see another thread - apols if I missed one. As usual, I haven’t heard of several of the 'celebs'.

I think that Harley moon looks like Shirley! I was always so jealous of Pepsi and Shirley , they had it all.
I do like Roman, he seems very sweet and just nice.

The Kemps love a reality show don’t they! Martin is currently fighting off the critters in the jungle !

I’m feeling a total bitch tonight, I just don’t want to deal with hearing about others anxiety.

🤢

All I remember of El Salvador is loads of American brand restaurants, totally empty, clearly for money laundering. And gun shops. I think I lasted 3 days and moved on as quickly as I could.

Glad to see Molly & Tyler have perked up

i like the look of Tiger Island

Oh no - I hate it when they all end up n the same place

Anita looks fuming that those other couples are on the same bus as well

All these places do not appeal to me at all.
I guess I was never ‘ back pack’ material !

Molly and Tyler are very cute, I’m glad they came first.

I couldn’t carry a back pack anymore. I’m going to see if can get one with wheels. There must be such a thing!

these three seemed v close in their arrivals.

Oooo Anita is mad.

love that they’re all close together.

Pleased for Tyler and Molly. It makes me laugh when they cross each other in the street going in different directions

Costa Rica should be amazing next week

A couple in the main series had wheeley bags. They seemed a bit of a hinderance. All the running around getting to the checkpoint had steps and stuff

Oo I’ll check that out.
Also I’m not planning on running. Ever!

id just like the flexibility of carrying and wheeling.

Loving this series, at the moment I really want Anita and her Dad to win ( Yorkshire bias)
However, we are enjoying getting to know the other couples too.

We have always planned to go to South America for 6 months when we retire, now it looks like we will add some of Central America too!

Enjoying this series.

Like all the pairings but most enjoy watching Molly and Tyler, who seem so sweetly happy and loved up. And supportive of one another. Think they are great role models of what a positive, healthy relationship can look like.

She glows and grows when he praises her. Even the way Tyler was disagreeing in the clip about next week: "I'm not sure how much I'm on the same page as you right now" - healthy and respectful disagreement, not critical or aggro.

🩷

I thought tonight was really boring - far too much talking. I don’t care at all about all the back stories; can people just enjoy the race. And I want to see more of the placss.

I like Molly and Tyler. I’ve no idea who either of them are but they seem so sweet.

This series isn’t gripping me as much as previous.

Molly plays Anna knight in Eastenders.
She is the same character, just sweet and nice.

El Salvador has some lush scenery, volcanoes, lakes, waterfalls, colonial characterful towns with cobbled streets and colourful houses. It's battling some bad out of date PR and the capital, San Salvador is nothing special but if you're in Central America don't write it off. I was there in 2025 and really liked the feel of it.

I'm not feeling the same fun with this series that the last Celeb series had. Tonight's episode was just like the latest non-celeb version which got slated for too much sob story / talking.

Some lovely places and can't wait to see Costa Rica next week but more race footage please!

Yes, just need Shirley

Their budgets are going to take a hammering in Costa Rica - it's priced for the US tourists now.
