Oh, what turned you off about the NZ season? I think that was one of the best ones. Ben and Adam are just brilliant together in all seasons though.

Yeah I meant The Getaway. To be fair though, I gave up after the second episode. When the best bit is the reveal (not gonna spoil anything) at the end of each episode, then I guess it's just not for me.

I think the problem for me with NZ was its linearity and the degree of independence between the teams. It was fun, but there was so much less room for random chance to get in the way, or for teams to interfere with each other.

Yeah I watched The Getaway to the end, but found it obvious by episode 2 that there were big structural problems. The conceit if them travelling along in the van never made sense to me.

The last episode was worth watching just for

The llama challenge in episode 3(?) was also great. As I said, a lot of great moments and some fantastic editing, it just didn't piece together very well imo.
