Coutzy's Commentaries on AusTAR 2! Episode 9 announcement.
Coutzy:
We're back
Steve's souffle looks nice inside, and he's passed the test so they're off!
They must now travel to Rungis Market and search amongst 230 ha of produce and find a certain stall to collect a 30 kilogram wheel of cheese, then deliver it to a cheese shop 25 kilometers away. If they deliver it undamaged, they'll receive their next clue.
Andrew and Sam are starting their class. Sarah is a latecomer but they let her join in anyway, showing they have more lenience than my old high school teachers.
Lucy has forgotten how long her Souffle has been in for, so she kind of just guesses when hers should come out. Grace looks like she'll make the same mistake.
Lucy guessed well, they're out of the task after a quick taste test. They're up to their highest ever place in second.
Sarah has dropped her egg mix and put it back in her bowl. The chef has stopped her and made her redo that.
Michelle's souffle looks good, by her estimations the best of anyone's yet, but she's undercooked the Souffle so she'll have to salvage what mix she has left and hope for the best.
Grace's souffle hasn't risen much, but she passes the test.
Paul and Steve are at the marketplace.
Michelle has lucked out with her 2nd souffle, proving the adage that Ps get Degrees.
Andrews Souffle looks good, the judge called it exactly what he wanted, and he was told he was number 1 for the night. Sam is told he wasn't the best, but good enough. They both pass.
Paul and Steve are still searching the market, but they've found the cheese section, and have been told Jean-Marie (The cheese guy) is coming. The girls are there.
Sarah has been deemed good enough by the judge, and apparently she did it quickly. James likened it to him completing a make up challenge.
Coutzy:
Lucy and Emilia have used their French to advantage and are right behind Michelle and Jo and Paul and Steve.
The girls carry the cheese together. Paul decides he's going to carry it himself and use the chance to flex his muscles a bit.
Lucy and Emilia are right behind the first two, all three in cabs.
Grace is trying to have her taxi driver wait, but he doesn't want to unless Grace pays her "One million dollar" It was strongly recommended in the clue that teams have their driver wait.
Shane and Andrew are having trouble because Here a Cheese, There a cheese, everywhere a cheese cheese.
James and Sarah have got their cab driver to wait for them.
Grace isn't having a bar of lifting the cheese and tells Jo to suck it up.
James and Sarah have made good time with the cheese, and feel they're back in it.
Grace and Jo are trying to steal the cab, and get busted in the act. But it's too late for James and Sarah to stop them, they'll drive off in the cab.
Coutzy:
Back from the ad break.
James and Sarah are still left stranded after the very very low dog act from JoGrace.
Sarah doesn't care if they have to stop traffic on the street, she's going to find a cab.
Joseph says desperate times call for desperate measures.
Grace scrambles to justify herself by saying she doesn't like Sarah and James (literally the first time they've expressed a dislike for the pair)
Michelle and Jo's driver takes the straight to the cheese place and they get their clue. Teams must now head to Debilly Footbridge and search for a painter to receive their next clue.
Paul and Steve and Lucy and Emilia are right behind.
Lucy and Emilia feel Paris has delivered everything they asked for... Except cute Frenchmen.
James and Sarah have found a pub that will call them a cab. They bicker for a while and Sarah feels that their relationship has never been at a lower point.
Grace the Bad Wife and Jo have delivered their cheese, and Michelle and Jo have reached the bridge, receiving instructions to fly to Havana in Cuba. Once there, they must search the airport carpark for a classic car, then drive to the Tropicana Nightclub and find the lead showgirl to find their next clue.
The twins leave the bridge just as Paul and Steve go running up to the painter in a nice distance shot panning across for them.
Lucy and Emilia wanted to go to Cuba, but "Not while we're in Paris and not while we're ahead"
The Cops deliver the cheese and get instructions to the bridge from a nice guy on an iPhone.
James and Sarah have a cab, and James tells her that bitching and moaning doesn't help, and that it's a race. Sarah goes "No way!" and confesses that Paris isn't the city of love, it's the city of hate.
Ad break.
Coutzy:
We're back
The cops are running through Paris just as the sun starts coming up, so they're taking a moment to enjoy the sights, save some money and not be screwed by a taxi driver. Sam and Sticky are meanwhile proceeding to get screwed by a taxi driver that doesn't know where the bridge is.
Lucy and Emilia and Michelle and Jo book tickets on flight number one.
Sarah knows exactly where the bridge is so they jump in a cab.
JoGrace and The Cops have found the painter in spots 4 and 5. They take another moment to enjoy the sights before rushing off.
James and Sarah find the painter in slot number 6 and hope they can redeem themselves in a new country.
Sam and Sticky know they're last when they reach the bridge, but feel they're back in the game.
All teams bar James and Sarah and Sam and Sticky will land in Cuba at 3:10 PM
Hunners and St. James tell Sticky and Sam what happened with the cabs, the two of them will land in Havana at 5:50.
First flight drops in Cuba. Paul and Steve marvel at the cars and claim the dark blue one quickly. Looking at the map it appears as if teams will be driving for a while, and theh shift is in a strange place, which is confusing a few teams.
Steve's car has a non functioning speedo and fuel guage. The cops have a car without seatbelts too.
Steve finds the mix of horses and old school cars on the road very strange.
Michelle and Jo are having big troubles with their car, so they hop out and ask for some strong men to help them push start the car.
Lucy and Emilia don't get a push start, but they're moving too. Albeit one bunny hop at a time.
Ad break.
Coutzy:
We're back.
Lucy and Emilia have switched cars since they're still technically in the parking lot.
The second flight lands in darkness in Cuba. Both teams pick a car and proceed to go nowhere fast.
James and Sarah are first to leave the parking lot, Sticky and Sam a little behind.
The key just fell out of James' car, but it's still running.
Lucy and Emilia are having some directional difficulty, but Michelle and Jo are in the right city.
Shane and Andrew are having trouble opening the boot of their car to get a torch out, they settle for holding the door open and using the car light.
Paul and Steve are at the nightclub and open their clue to head to the Pit Stop: Hotel Nacional
The last team to check in may be eliminated.
The boys are confident they're in the lead, and the Cops have had their cars bonnet has started poping up. JoGrace have stalled in the middle of an intersection, but gotten a push to help them jumpstart.
Michelle has stalled right outside the club, but they're in 2nd place getting their clue, but not before deciding which showgirls bodies they want.
Sticky and Sam have no idea how to get to Havana, and the locals aren't helping any.
Michelle and Jo have struck the kerb and need another push start to get going. She's kangaroo hopping up and down the streets now. The twins share a few words at maximum volume about how hard this actually is, and its another ad break.
