DESTINATION X players were left confused tonight after a series of clues and red herrings, but did you get it right?
Rob Brydon is the host of the new BBC show, which sees a group of strangers try to figure out where they are in Europe through a series of clues in a bid to win £100,000.
Episode two ended with the Matterhorn being the destination, and Rob told viewers in tonight’s episode that the bus was moving on to one of the five countries that borders with Switzerland.
The windows of the bus are usually blacked out so the group can’t get a steer on where they are, but at one point tonight, they were given the chance to look out and saw a roundabout with large red balls in the middle.
The first clue had them thoroughly perplexed, but once they boarded a luxury train, they received more.
Split into two teams, they headed into their respective carriages and saw a postcard with Oscar-winning actress Audrey Hepburn, a ticket stub with ‘Oktober’ written on it and a slip of paper with the word ‘Dienstabteil’ printed.
Another postcard featured a print which player Saskia asked: “Do we think these are roads or vines or like a forest maybe?”
Meanwhile a book had a stamp from the Bavarian State Library.
The two teams then went head-to-head in a challenge onboard the train, with the winning group receiving the chance to go into a glass sided carriage to discover more clues.
The team that won consisted of Josh, Judith and Saskia, and when they reached the carriage they saw they were moving through a forest.
The train slowed down for them to see a number of new clues, which included a sign reading ‘Donau’ and a group of naturists eating large sausages and drinking from big glass beer steins.
Meanwhile in the carriage, there was a football magazine with Harry Kane on the front which read ‘Harry Kane strikes again’ .
The clues all lead to Germany, and the winning team were convinced it was Munich, but decided to throw some red herrings into the mix when they returned to the others, and suggest what they had seen was pointing to Dortmund.
But what did you think?
The episode featured a brutal twist which saw the three players who failed to make it onto the bus in episode one return in a bid to try and win a spot on board.
LOSING GAME
After a series of head-to-heads with Ben, James and Nick from the losing team, James was sent home there and then.
The remaining players then entered their guesses for Destination X into the computer, before Rob revealed the results.
It turned out Ben had been furthest from the actual location and would be leaving too.
And if you had guessed Munich, you were correct! Well done!
Destination X continues tomorrow night at 9pm on BBC One.
