Celebrity Race Across the World viewers were left unimpressed with Wednesday's episode of the BBC One show as they took to social media to complain about the lengthy introduction.
At the start of the episode, a recap of previous episodes was shown to refresh viewers' knowledge of Celebrity Race Across The World so far, but some fans were left irritated by the length of time it went on for.
One person fumed: "We don’t need to be told the purpose of the show or a recap of what happened last week at the start of every show. We have iPlayer for that if needed. Just get on with it. #CelebrityRaceAcrossTheWorld".
A second viewer echoed this by writing: "Just gonna get past the half hour intro #celebrityraceacrosstheworld."
However, other fans of the hit BBC show were more distracted by McFly star Harry Judd's mum Emma, who has become the standout star of the series. The mother-and-son duo are taking part in the show as a team and have proven to be a hit with viewers, who continue to share their support for them online.
Some fans have even said Emma needs her very own travel show, as they continue to praise her for "embracing the culture" wherever see goes.
During Wednesday evening's episode, one fan tweeted: "I hope someone gives Emma Judd a travel show after this We need to see her travel the world without being on a time @mcflyharry".
"Oh she's so lovely. I think I'd enjoy a travel show with Emma hosting #CelebrityRaceAcrossTheWorld," a second viewer penned, while a third said: "Harry and Emma to win this – they are the loveliest mother and son #CelebrityRaceAcrossTheWorld".
Harry and Emma came first in Wednesday's show, while Alex Beresford and his dad Noel came in second, with Billy Monger and his sister Bonny in third. Singer Mel Blatt and her mum Helene came in fourth place.
Harry revealed he took part in the show as he never got travel properly when he was younger due to being busy with McFly. He said: “I never travelled when I was younger. I travelled with the band, but I never properly did backpacking and I always wanted to. I think the same applies for my mum, she always wanted to but started a family when she was 22.”
