There was a movie from the 1930s called 'The Amazing
Race', following the misadventures of various
two-person teams racing from London to somewhere in
Europe; Rome or Paris or Madrid or somewhere, I forget
which.  It's a classic and I saw it several years ago.
 It was to that which I was referring.

I've *heard* of the reality show, but I thought it was
a one-off and happened several years ago.  I didn't
realise it was happening again and I didn't even think
of it before you posted.  Live and learn.  So it's
being put on this year and there's a goth team?

I believe in dragons, unicorns, good men
and other mythical creatures.
