Is this the best program on TV just now?

If the 2 women don't win I shall be so disappointed! They are inspirational.

(I couldn't find another thread on this, apologies if I've missed it.)

I’m not watching, but just found out Kevin and Claudia live about 3 miles away from us!

Having been so lucky with the lady from the Cannabis shop, Kevin should've bought a scratchcard. He would've won enough to get a taxi to the finish!!!!

Cathie and Tricia have now considered doing the same as Kevin and Claudia which we all, on here, slated them for .... Tricia suggested waving smugly to the ones who couldn't get on the bus.

I have gone off them even more now.

The other one did sound shocked and said No, to be fair to her.

Only just caught up with this week's - I'd now be content to see either Ladi and Monique or Zainab and Mobeen win. I'm starting to lose a bit of patience with Cathie and Tricia now.

What a ending you couldn't really call it until the very end.
I'm pleased that Cathie and Trisha won it, but I was rooting for all of them in the end.
Love these series, the follow on after the news was worth watching as well.
Well done BBC on this series.

They so deserved to win. I was afraid that they had taken the wrong decision on the last leg but it all worked out brilliantly for them. They made so many good friends who looked after them and went out of their way to help. What lovely people they all met in Canada. Ladi and Monique were a great father-daughter partnership and I'm pleased for them that they finished the race and cemented their relationship.

I watched half the reunion programme and will finish the rest today.What is lovely is how pleased they genuinely seemed to see each other again.My favourites were Mobeen and Zanaib but actually any of them deserved to win in the end if only for 7 weeks of carrying a big rucksack everywhere.Not dure I could do it .Plus with my bladder I would find catching lifts and all that travel hard!Quite envious of their experience though !

I didn’t mind who won at the end, it was so tense right till Cathie and Tricia opened the book. Really enjoyed it and would love to visit Canada!
