| Oh that was them in the shop with the drawers too was it? I couldnt remember if it was them or not. LMAO How funny - everyone else was all nice and calm and kept getting the right ones while they were constantly getting the wrong one hahaha it definitely makes you think karma really works hahahaha I think they confused the shop owner because they were too hysterical and that's why he didn't understand them, they seemed to have no concept of non-verbal communication. |

| I definitely agree with you there coach Jacki, when she shoved the gnome in his face he could of thought it was a knife or anything.Although I am constantly amused at how a lot of taxi drivers dont seem to know where anything is!!! But even so the way that one redhead kept whining and being so rude it was definitely karma!!lol!! They seemed to have a lot of that all the way through though like in the shop where they had to ask the shopkeeper to open draws to find the clue. Sure it would be annoying trying to tell people what draws to open when they dont speak english , but everyone else seemed to cope without being rude. So I did think it was funny that they got there about first, but got out last!!! |

jondalar - you miss my point.
I totally agree the taxi mob SHOULD know where places are. That's not my point. I just thought it was highly amusing that when they got home to an ENGLISH SPEAKING country (after constantly whining about stupid people who cant speak english in non-English speaking countries) they got worse stuff from the taxi service than anywhere else ROFLMAO
And after the way they'd been running around the world treating taxi drivers they thoroughly deserved to get an incompetent taxi service at the crucial moment.
One stand out bit was when the silly cow shoved the gnome over the back of the seat into the Chinese driver's face. The poor guy was clearly frightened when he saw something large coming at his head. No wonder he wouldn't answer the stupid woman in the back who kept gibbering on incomprehensibly at him in a demanding, threatening hysterical tone. He probably thought she was a lunatic. |

Well I disagree I think it IS the taxi company that should know how to get to an address. Do they expect us to all carry a street directory so we can tell them where to go?
Yes the red-heads were rude at times but in this instance they were justified. I kinda wanted them to win. |

I was glad Tammy and Victor won too, by far the least annoying of the final three. Although I did think they'd thrown it away when they were carrying the pig in a really stupid way, instead of on their shoulders like deaf guy and mother did.
The mother knows how the deaf guy can't handle pressure and throws tantrums when a task isn't working easily, so I have no idea why she didn't do the final surfboard task herself. If the red head on the sideline hadn't made the one who he helped show him all her surfboards he would still be there. Also have no idea why he didn't just run around and look at Vincent's boards when he couldn't figure out the final two especially after he'd finished.
I also thought it was Karma that the rude red heads had the taxi cab company dispatcher tell them she was not their personal concierge (although she no doubt would have been fired once the owners of that company heard that, I mean taxi drivers should know where destinations are and if they don't the dispatcher need to, if they don't it's there job to find out). It was good karma though for the racist girls who believe everyone is stupid who cannot speak or read english even though they could not speak or read a word of the language of each company they were visiting. |

shalamikan - I agree with you about the first incident (being the girls fault) but then the deaf guy responded badly. To me they were just both over-excited. The mother tho drives me insane. She makes things worse instead of better - she's a menace!
Tonight when Luke was trying to put makeup on her she kept swinging her head around to look in the mirror (making it difficult for him to work) and nagging him and telling him off and generally fussing and carrying on like an idiot so much that I wanted to smack her senseless.
LOL Now that's out of my system - yes, the redheads are rude and seem to think everyone in the world should 1. speak English and 2. are deliberatelyy out to get them. No wonder they kept having trouble with taxi drivers, I swear most of the drivers hated them so much they deliberately sabotaged things LOL
I thought the result tonight was a good one. |

Although I found the deaf guys behaviour at the 2nd clue box appalling, I did not think that it was totally his fault the first time as the girl , did rush at him from behind into his back .She could of waited until he'd got his clue and moved out of the way like everyone else would of. Having said that though, he should of had his whinge and just of got on with the race rather than the childish behaviour he showed the next time they met at the clue box when he did instigate the pushing.His mother should of tried to calm him down after the first time so it would not of escalated!!
I hope that the redheaded girls dont win the race, as I find them very obnoxious and rude!!(Particularly one of them anyway, not sure on her name though!!) |

| I'm normally addicted to these shows but unfortunately I found out by accident who won so it's taken the gloss off a bit. But aside from that, is it me or does anyone think the teams this time are perhaps a bit boring? Maybe it's cos I know who wins, but they just don't seem to have the same 'oomph' as in previous years. Eg, like Colin and Christie, Jonathan and Victoria, BJ & Tyler etc. |

I was also surprised there was no penalty for that behaviour. I think the whole thing was blown out of proportion, it didn't need to go on, what happened to forgive and forget?
It was funny the other night when the redheads were so emotional about coming 1st in a leg for the 1st time and when they got to the 'pit stop' Phil told them that it wasn't over yet. |

Agree totally, I was so expecting when they reached the mat Phil to go you are the fourth team to arrive, however due to unsportsmen like behaviour or even more accurate assulting another contestant you will receive a two hour penalty (could have even been a few as he did it twice and also threatened to in the cab with ramming his fist into his hand before pushing her from behind into the clue box at the next stop). Even disqualified from the race completely would have been appropriate once the show had viewed the tapes. A simple statement after viewing the tapes they were disqualified meaning the stuntmen are back in it would have sufficed at the beginning of the next episode. Remember the stuntmen were given four hours penalty, 2 of which for hiding bicycle pumps. Surely premeditated asult on a girl by a guy is worse than that. A few hours penalty would have given them a chance to stay in the game.
The mother is just as bad by not forcing him to apologise, then standing behind his immature outbursts the next times and trying to portray him as the victim since he has a disability. She clearly heard the way the B word was said and that they were not calling him that but about his actions and just inflamed the situation. Gives all people who are deaf or with a disability a bad name by playing that card which they do not deserve. Both mother and son should be so ashamed of their actions.
I must admit I think all the teams remaining are a bit racist and I would have liked others to still be around for the million dollars but assaulting women is just not on and they need to go home next. |

Did anyone else think the deaf guy was just a bit nasty the other night?
Don't think mum adding to the drama helped at all.
After their attitude the other night they are no longer on my wish to win list. I'd be happy for either of the sibling pairs to win.
I didn't think the girls pushed him at the first clue box at all but he certainly did push them and I did not think they were laughing at him at all, more grinning at his explanation........that I can understand.
Don't forget it was the son and mum who eliminated one couple with the U turn. |
