At an on-set visit in 2023, host Hamish Blake and judge Brickman said having teams from Denmark, France and the USA is “exciting”, however, nothing prepared them for German duo, Felix and Annalena.
“The German team might be some of our favourite contestants of all time,” Hamish told Chattr. “They won the German version and they are like pro athletes!”
Adding that after five years of purely Aussie talent, the “newness of having these international teams” is fascinating, because they have “different ways of doing things”.
