Such a great episode through Nepal. India will really test some of them.

I’d be exactly like Sioned in India. Just completely overwhelmed - I struggle when it’s a bit busy in Tesco here let alone in the middle of a bustling Indian city :joker:. Feel for her.

Vanessa 14-05-2025 10:37 PM

Catching up now

…yeah I really feel for Sioned, the noise level was just overwhelming for her…

…once you got away from that though, wow the views were breathtakingly beautiful…:lovedup:….i have a friend who once spent a few months in India and she absolutely loved it….

Ammi 15-05-2025 05:45 AM

…I really, really like all of the couples this season…:love:…I was willing Tom and Caroline to get to the checkpoint first yesterday, though…:laugh:…just because they’re Suffolk people and live not far from where I did until recent times…

They’re doing really well. I love they’ve gone from 5th to 4th to 3rd to 2nd. They’re only a couple of hours behind 1st so would love to see them climb up again next week.

All the couple are great. The sisters are really relishing the journey. Letitia is such a little gem, I just want to give her a big hug.

…yeah Letitia is gorgeous and she’s holding so much inside, isn’t she…I can’t imagine how shaky she’s felt in having her ‘safe place’ just taken away from her and feeling so helpless …I love how this journey for them all is such soul food that’s so needed…

Ammi 15-05-2025 06:30 AM

…Tom struggling to put the hygiene gloves on and then finally doing it because he obviously wasn’t going to give up and think of another task…I mean, we all jumped up and cheered him, didn’t we…:lovedup:…

Ammi 21-05-2025 06:18 PM

…I think this is on this evening, looking forward to seeing their next part…:love:..

…yeah me too, I’m so looking forward to them continuing and I’m hugely enjoying India in all its stunning glory…

Do any more teams get eliminated? It feels a bit savage to the fifth pair if they were the only ones lol

The brothers and the young couple are my favourites. I find the sisters relationship quite awkward, they really don't seem to like each other that much

Love the brothers. Want them to win

Ammi 21-05-2025 06:32 PM

…I love the mum and son also…they’re local to where I used to live plus…mother and son…:laugh:…

Ammi 22-05-2025 05:35 AM

…Sioned…:hug:…it would be so difficult to not be hugely impacted by the poverty in the country…

Vanessa 22-05-2025 12:30 PM

The teen couple are really behind. Hope there isn't another elimination :shocked:

…yeah that’s the thing about it as well, isn’t it…it’s so competitive but it’s also excellent for learning about the country/people as well …like the guy who took Caroline and Tom to his family home …they were all so welcoming, it really does have gorgeous heartwarming aspects as well…

I love the mum and son and I'm rooting for them to win.
Yes learning from different cultures, that's the best part of travelling.

…:love:…yeah I would love them to win as they’re from an area that I’m familiar with but it’s one of those things that I’d be happy with any of the couples winning because they’re all pretty terrific …

I thought this even moreso in the latest ep, their relationship is so strained for no clear reason. Letitia is lovely but Elizabeth is quite catty

I hope Finn and Sioned catch up

…awkward maybe but I don’t think there is any dislike …I mean, all of the couples on there are there because they’re looking to deepen a bond through the experience or maybe even re-connect for some…?…the sisters…(…I think…)…are completely different/opposites almost in personality and in how they’ve processed unfortunate things in their lives and in that processing…?…they’ve also lived in different countries/have no shared friendship groups etc…their gap if you like has widened because that’s progressed in such different life experiences for the last decade or so…so to an extent, they’re almost now like strangers and trying to connect with all of their back story together and I don’t know how much of that back story will have a more warming shared nostalgia ….this is an aspect that I love with the race…it has so many elements of relationship psychology plus it’s a great insight into long distance travel that many don’t get to experience for real…
