The first roadblock tonight is ridiculous. This show is not survivor. Fancy having to wait for all the teams to arrive for the roadblock challenge to start. Stupid and irrelevant to the nature of the game.
Ohh and now we have Dolar whinging about driving a manual car. He is the biggest sook.
The First Class Pass also made a return tonight. Looks like it would now be given to the team which arrived first at the pitstop of an non-elimination leg.
Jaskirat posted on his Instagram last night there was a detour which was not shown on TV: crab racing and bogan games.
That’s how the producers were able to keep the episode to under 70 minutes. I would like to see this on 10play.
EDIT: found this footage of the unseen detour on YouTube.
I’m starting to wonder if he’s an actor. Talks himself up constantly yet struggles and complains on all the challenges. Reality tv gold, but almost too over the top.
Deborah Wilson, who competed with husband Shane and had to withdraw due to Shane’s injured knee in last night’s episode, posted on her Instagram this afternoon:
Thank you everyone for your kind words. We were devastated that we had to leave but still so proud of how well we did whilst we were there. Getting to experience this together and how much fun we had was a win in our books
Looks like the show may have set a new record. The teams transited through Cairns three times during the race (from Mossman to Gold Coast, from Magnetic Island to Fitzroy Island, and from Green Island to Darwin) without completing a detour or roadblock in the city.
With six legs completed, the teams had done literally a full circle of Queensland:
Newell -> Mossman -> Gold Coast -> Longreach -> Winton -> Longreach -> Townsville -> Palm Island -> Magnetic Island -> Green Island.
