Looks like TAR will do an homage to the Festival of St. George in Arachova by recreating the "race of the yeroi", a footrace up the 264 Egarsios steps to the Church of St. George. 

Quote
St. George, the dragon-slayer, is the patron saint of Arachova, and the largest church on the top of the highest hill in town is dedicated to him. The festival is kicked off in fine form with the race of the yeroi, the old men of the town who are astonishingly agile as they clamber up the stone steps without so much as a gasp for air.

For sure, Brooke & Scott used the 1st U-turn. Their actions and reactions in the preview tell us enough.

From Tara's voiceover, I think there's a footrace to the W-turn, then Brooke & Scott pushed Tara & Joey away. OR There's also a good chance that they U-turned Tara & Joey too, as Tara's hand made an indescribable movement. ??? Knowing TAR though, I doubt they U-turned Tara & Joey.

Very possible, as they were announcing their apologies aloud.

From that scene, it seems Tara/Joey touching the box when Brooke was putting on the u-turn, so maybe the arrival order is Brooke/Scott > Tara/Joey > Matt/Redmond?

If Brooke chooses Matt/Redmond, Tara/Joey may not need to u-turn anyone and give the chance to Matt/Redmond (except they are already the last team)

If Brooke chooses Tara/Joey, Tara/Joey would probably u-turn Matt/Redmond or other teams behind then, but Tara's tone of speaking does not sound like her team is being u-turned though

The preview definitely gave a firm idea that RedMatt are U-Turned by ScottBrooke.
But I speculate that LoLo are behind and get the second U-Turn from RedMatt.

They could U-turn Mike & Liz as they're likely to be behind due to self drive. I hope they don't go home but it doesn't look good.

Tara's audio says:" I can't believe they U-Turned *skip* , that's so crappy. "

They did the first U-Turn, so saying that's crappy would most likely refer to them? or a team way behind? Dunno.

The skip could be U-Turned "us", or any team name edited out.

Where does the firm idea come in? I am just not seeing it....

Well, I could easily see them referring to Matt & Redmond.

(All three teams are together at the board and it looks like Tara & Joey get the clue first, then Scott & Brooke, then Redmond & Matt).

Tara also looks like she reached into the pictures.



Tara's voiceover getting cut off too: listen closely.

"I can't believe they U-Turned that's so crappy" (there doesn't seem to be a skip or a cut at all).

I felt that the "crappy" situation was that a team right behind Scott & Brooke was U-Turned (Kynt & Vyxsin style), but because Tara & Joey seem to be rather chill in the moment gamer snapshot, it must be RedMatt getting U-Turned.

I'm not so sure Tara & Joey got to the board before Scott & Brooke though.

Or you could be right Peach, and it's a team already way behind. But RedMatt's reaction really seemed frustrated to me.

Anyway, by the "firm idea", I meant that the editing is misleading us to believe TarJoe were U-turned, hence Tara's words. And nothing is shown (heard) from RedMatt, which further fulfils the objective of misleading. This is just my idea of how it was edited though.

Certainly possible, but what makes you think so?

They could have also UTurned Brooke and that's why she is hurriedly adding a pic... Anything basically is possible!

fwiw (I'm on my phone so I can't cap this)

a) Scott & Brooke are at the stadium at the same time Redmond trips over his bag. When this happens and what kind of task this is idk but that's a thing :)

b) Also the donkey task is a Detour - Tara & Joey and Scott & Brooke attempt this.
