The out-of-shape couple were damn smart to use those carriers as sleds instead. They weren't so smart when they couldn't find the pitstop, though.
She just... she just did the math.

Because books.
The locals did seem especially nasty about the cheese task. I'm just not sure why everyone didn't roll their cheese down the hill -- it didn't seem to matter with the ones they dropped.
Also, who the hell decided to build the cheese-making building way up that hill, but store the cheese at the bottom?!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, using it as a sled on purpose was smart.
Also, am I wrong, or did they do both of those tasks basically before lunchtime? That's a hell of a day.

I was wondering if the teams were supposed to figure out that they should roll the cheese instead of carrying it. Isn't cheese rolling a thing? You know, in Europe?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

It looked to me like the cheeses that rolled went pretty far out of the way, so those teams wound up carrying them about the same distance anyway.
Cheese-rolling is an annual competition in Gloucester, UK in which contestants attempt to beat a wheel of cheese down a dangerously steep hill. It is fracking INSANE. And awesome.

For anyone who missed last night's TAR, the Travel Channel will be showing the Sunday ep on the following Friday at 8:00 eastern time (so, this Friday for yesterday's ep).

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Oh yay, thanks for the heads-up.
Of course, Friday has suddenly become a totally booked up tv night itself. Hmm.

Yeah, I have teevee conflict this year. I didn't even notice that Lie to Me was being edged out until someone mentioned it in Natter and I was all, "oh, I haven't seen that since the pilot." Now I have to go figure out what's in its way.
