Get ready for more adventure, drama, and maybe a little bit of "we're going to tell you everything twice" because Pechino Express is back with its eighth episode! This season promises even more twists and turns as nine couples navigate challenging terrains and even more challenging personalities across the Philippines, Thailand, and Nepal.
But before we dive into the beautiful scenery and cultural experiences, there's some news to unpack. Fan-favorite host Costantino della Gherardesca is making his triumphant return. His wit and charm are sure to spice things up, but his return isn't the only big news.
The Independents Say Goodbye
Unfortunately, not everyone can stay the course. This week, the team known as "The Independents" have been eliminated from the competition. Their journey may have come to an end, but their impact on the show will surely be remembered. Sources indicate they fought hard, but ultimately fell behind.
And speaking of fighting, things got heated on set during this episode. According to reports, a frightening incident occurred involving Giulio Berruti. Berruti claims that Nathalie Guetta and Vito Bucci encouraged a driver to run him over. The incident reportedly happened when the 'Estetici' saw the 'Cineasti' in a vehicle, leading Berruti to step into the road.
"I almost died, I'm furious," Berruti reportedly said, venting his anger.
Love, Spas, and the Open Road
Amidst all the drama, Costantino della Gherardesca offered some refreshing perspective. When asked about love, he quipped, "Love? Tribal stuff, sometimes a spa is better!" He also emphasized the importance of curiosity and gratitude in both television and life. "Curiosity is the most important thing, on TV and in life. Along with gratitude, that's everything – you should never take anything for granted."
So, as Pechino Express continues its journey through the Philippines, Thailand, and Nepal, be prepared for more unexpected twists, heartfelt moments, and maybe even a few spa days (for those who need it!). Tune in every Thursday to see what happens next!
And remember, as the show reminds us, they'll probably say everything twice, just in case you missed it the first time.
