Race Across the World

[Dinglebert]

Difficult to see if its been Photoshopped or was taken at the time. I am really enjoying the series. Not for the couples but more for the fact that I could do this if I chose to. It would make a change from turning up to an airport, arriving somewhere and going back.

I don’t think it’s photoshopped as everyone is in different positions and have bags ect... they all will have been in the original line up, but only the teachers were there for back up incase of one of the couples having to drop out. They often do this with programs like this. As it’s common for things to go wrong. (Which it did)

We are really enjoying it. But not sure who will win the money, I don’t have s favourite either so would be pleased for any of them. Such a fab experience.

I went off her in the last episode. And I really went off the guys who came last. Shamima was being very genuine and they looked very ungracious.

I never heard her wish anyone luck in response to others wishing them luck & agree, very ungracious.

Shamina was lovely.

We wanted the father and son to win in the end. We did start wanting the 2 lads win but I think the father and son where the real winners as you could see how they had changed as a couple since the start. I knew they went really close when i Singapore as the shot of the older couple running across the bridge it was raining and when the father and son was shown crossing it it had stopped raining and the ground was drying up.

As to the photo it could have been taken after the event for all we know.

We wanted the father and son to win as well, but didn't mind the winners too much. They edited it to look close but you could see the times in the book and they were about 2.5 hours behind I think. The 2 guys - my least favourite team by far - were about 5 hours behind the 2 girls.

Loved this programme - I thought that it was really interesting seeing all the different cultures and countries and a little bit envious too.

I wanted Tony and Elaine to win - lovely couple who both embraced the experience.

Alex just got on my nerves tbh, he was great when things were going well but not so when he didn’t get his own way. How many times did they record that their relationship has improved ... ?

Felix and Josh were just not very nice - I didn’t like their lack of sportsmanship and their arrogance.

Shameena and Natalie - just lovely and clearly enjoyed the adventure.

I was amazed at how they found the bus or ticket offices - some very strange buildings!
