Maybe they'll be the Aussie version of Cormac & Nicole.

That does go better as an apples-to-apples comparison.

Funny story, in Belize they forgot to take the smart TV out of our room (no other teams, just us), so this was the first time we had access to the internet in weeks. We came onto this forum to see what you were all saying about us and to see who had been identified. We went and told all the other teams about it and they were so intrigued, it was hilarious.

The first time we saw u on rff ,was the first time you spotted yourselves, how cool. Wonder what's your take on that viral video of reshoots

It was pretty insane seeing that clip blow up, thats how alot of our friends found out that we were on the race. It annoyed us so much though seeing people in the comments saying the show was fake etc. That was the only time the entire race that we ever really had to reshoot anything. We were so excited to be coming first and about to make the finale that we kept mucking up the reading of the clue and exited the frame in the wrong direction.

I'm glad it annoyed you as much as it annoyed me, guys!

As you say, the Race is so real and raw, but now and then they do have to make reshoots as, after all, it is a television product! Some people just want to say that about reality television though - always have!

Loved watching you guys! How gutted were you to miss out on racing in Colombia? I have to say, that was the only let-down of TARAUS6 - the cast and route was epic - but all the COVID-outers was such a drag!

KellyandGeorgia:
Absolutely devastated to miss Colombia and being out of the race. Was super frustrating seeing people saying we got a 'free ride', we much rather would've been racing and been eliminated. Sitting in the hotel room for 2 weeks was awful, toughest thing we have ever done mentally. Super hard having no contact with the outside world so just having to do sudoku and watch turkish tv channels all day. We also didn't know if we would even be back in the race or where the other teams had gone.

Was super frustrating from a viewers perspective even for us watching COVID ruin the season. I really don't think there was a perfect solution to it. Ideally it would've been great if they paused production, but that could've taken months as teams kept getting it at different times, plus all the crew have families at home to get back to etc.

Having teams out though really did ruin the pace of the season and was 100% unfair for those teams still having to race, we felt awful coming straight back in. All of the Covid teams thought we were going to have to race and only the team who finished first would come back in or something.

Sorry for taking away from the current season, we are more than happy to do a Q&A on another thread!
