Route Info: Teams must now travel by train to the city of Middlesbrough, regularly cited as one of the worst cities in England. It is home to many chavs and teenage single moms (not mutually exclusive, certainly), drug dealers and widespread poverty. They must make their way to Elstree & Borehamwood train station, where trains leave once every 10 minutes starting on the hour, and will take 15 minutes to reach Middlesbrough. Once the train arrives at Middlesbrough train station on the scheduled time, teams will make their way to the utterly tacky and pointless statue of Spectra-txt to find their next clue. Post: *purchase tickets for next train to Middlesbrough* (15 GBP) Curtis & Starla / Married Five Years (maximillian) (2/3) Rebecca & Sassy / Twins (YemaGrl1988) (1/3) Graham & Brad / Bachelors/Straight Dudes turned Gay (Cuauhtemoc Gilmore)

Fast Forward: This is the 1st of three Fast Forwards on the Race. In this Fast Forward, teams must make their way to Cockfosters station, on the vast, ancient network of the London Underground. They must then travel from Cockfosters station to Liverpool Street station on the network via the route which passes by the least number of Underground stations possible. However, there are a few catches: - teams must travel via Old Street station (i.e. their route MUST pass through it) - teams must count the number of stations (start and end stations inclusive) on their route - teams must not count certain stations that are closed Therefore, an example answer to post for the route with the least number of Underground stations possible from Heathrow Terminal 4 to Ealing Broadway would include this: Heathrow Terminal 4 PICCADILLY (line teams will travel on between the stations) Acton Town DISTRICT Ealing Broadway Total number of stations 13 (actual figure would exclude stations that are closed) For teams' reference, a copy of the Tube map may be found below: http://www.bbc.co.uk/lond...l/downloads/tube_map.html The following stations on the network are closed: Arsenal Balham Barking Bermondsey Bethnal Green Canada Water Canary Wharf Cannon Street Edgware Elephant & Castle Epping Finchley Road Highbury & Islington Holborn Holland Park Kew Gardens Marble Arch Notting Hill Gate Oval Queensway Pimlico Rayners Lane Richmond Southwark Theydon Bois Turnpike Lane Upminster Uxbridge Vauxhall Walthamstow Central Waterloo West Ham Whitechapel Wimbledon You may change lines for any number of times. The first team at Cockfosters to post the right answer in the game thread wins this Fast Forward. Chet & Ryan / Roommates (hakushu8) (almost there!) To take the Fast Forward, post one: *taxi to Cockfosters tube station* (8 GBP / 1U) *bus to Cockfosters tube station* (3 GBP / 2U)
Roadblock: Who's a fan of all things voyeuristic? ("Hello, hello!" Davina appears on the TV screens in the Big Brother house all excited, "I'll bet that you weren't expecting to see me so soon, hahaha! You're on my turf now!") In this Roadblock, Racers will experience 2 of modern Britain's favourite pastimes combined in full force: gossip rags and reality TV. Each Racer will be randomly assigned a contestant from Davina's show Big Brother, and they must post in this thread links to 10 articles, along with their titles, which mention their contestant. Their post must also include a picture of their contestant and state their name. (Yes, different Racers may link to the same article or picture as long as it mentions the contestant they are assigned to.) The articles must be original content published by the site owner, and not copied/sourced from other sites or media sources. There is, however, 1 more twist to this: Each Racer must be 'voted out' by the public, per international Big Brother rules. Racers must get a Yuku poster with at least 500 posts, who is not currently in this game, to post *(poster name) votes to evict (Racer name) from the Big Brother house*. Racers must complete both parts (they can complete them in any order) in order to receive their next clue. Each poster may only vote to save a maximum of 2 Racers. An example Roadblock (but with 1 link instead of the 10 required) would be like this:
Davina McCall 1) EXCLUSIVE: Davina: 'Let's get over Brand prank' http://www.digitalspy.co....over-brand-prank.html?rss Remember, each Racer may only do a maximum of 6 Roadblocks in the Race. Russel & Troy / Professional Tag-Team Wrestlers (Q Iron) Rebecca Shiner Task/Vote Frank & Antonio / Grandfather & Grandson (3Diesel) Amanda Marchant Task/Vote Get another Yuku poster not in the game (with 500 posts) to post: *(poster name) votes to evict (Racer name) from the Big Brother house* Post: *(team member) runs into Elstree Studios and sorts out tabloid rags and mags* Post: *(team member) will do the Roadblock* Post: *rip open and read clue*

Route Info: Teams will now make their way to the city of London, England. London is one of the largest metropolises in heavily-urbanised Europe, and besides its wealth and reputation, is known for its outrageous prices, crumbling infrastructure and council trash. A Yuku friend of the host has also spent some time complaining about London and the UK, and his taste is generally fine, so... In any case, when teams land, they must make their way to Elstree Studios in the suburb of Borehamwood, where they will receive their next clue. To fly to London, teams must now make their way to Alfonso Bonilla Aragón International Airport, which serves the metropolitan area of Santiago de Cali. The standard currency is Great Britain is the pound sterling (GBP). Post: (I'm just posting this as soon as I see someone have the correct answer, so if you answered London, England/UK just proceed to this step, I'll edit in accordingly) *taxi to airport* (132000 COP / 2U) *bus to airport* (44000 COP / 3U) Route Info: Teams will now have to make their way to a particular city in a particular country. Post: *the next destination is London, England* Patani & Charisse / Survivor Contestants (pinoyako) Olivia & Walter / FBI Agents (Crowlass) You have 89 USD for this leg of the Race. |

Starla: *solo confessional* I'm so afraid it would have something to do with his coma. Curtis: Thanks, babe.
Curtis: *solo* No way. I remember everything she told me. She told me I hated cherry with a burning passion because my old self had told her they taste like puke. Why did she lie to me? The idea of my angel being flippant to me is so wrong and impossible. She would never do that to me. |
