TAR 17 Ep 7 " I Want To Be In The Circus, That's Where I Belong!" (Russia)

--- Quote from: apskip on November 07, 2010, 09:15:25 PM ---At the end of the prior episode, I could not believe that Phil made no mention of the SpeedBump that is supposed to be automatic for the last-place finisher in an NEL leg. This leg showed no SpeedBump at all, so someone at World Race Productions may have forgotten to put one in. How is this possible from a fairness point of view. Now, due to the penalties of Michael/Kevin and Brook/Claire, Nick/Vicky would not have been eliminated by doing a task taking approximately 30 minutes. However, there's something rotten in Denmark( Or was it St. Petersburg?).

they probably edited out the Speedbump reference on the last episode after the editors chose to cut it from this one
DrRox:
I would suspect that the speed bump was before the circus detour....Then with all the other drama in this episode....as Danoosky said......they just didnt show it. I feel sure that the interviewers will ask that after Nick/Vicki get eliminated. We will just have to wait till then to find out for sure.
Dånooky:
**The following is just something I read and is by no means official**
There are rumors at s***** that there was no Speedbump as a credit due to a production mistake during the last leg in which one of the judges at the Piano Detour had told Nick & Vicki they were wrong when they were in fact right. They say Nick posted it in his FB.

That could well be the case, although its been a long time since a production credit was mentioned on air. However, I'm not sure Nick could even post anything about it on FB without running afoul of CBS until they are eliminated, or the final episode has aired.
DrRox:
CBS posted a disclaimer in the ending credits about production hangups and team time credits. Doesnt mention Nick/Vicki by name, though.
