Destination X star reveals the favourite game they played on BBC bus
Prior to the final, the three remaining spoke to the Beeb about their time on the show. Nuclear engineer Judith revealed a surprising way the players kept themselves entertained on the bus.
She said: “We played Uno quite a lot which was very funny and really brought out everyone’s competitive sides.” For those of us who were on the younger side around the turn of the millennium might remember the old Uno Extreme ads, so that brings back plenty of memories.
What will Destination X finalists use the money for?
Pilot Josh said: “I would pay my parents back for the money they spent on flight school, that was a big sacrifice. I would love to be able to give them something back to show how much I appreciated it and then use some to go travelling with my girlfriend.”
In a similar vein, Saskia added: “I’d take my family on a holiday and give my mom a lot of the winnings she’s sacrificed a lot over the years for my brother and I and this would be a huge chance to say thank you for everything she’s done.”
Judith said: “I would definitely love to treat my family, I would love to travel more and go to parts of the world I have never seen. Just being able to set up a future for myself would be amazing.”
