“This is our seventh season now – it’s insane!” Mark, 60, tells Woman’s Day of his family’s time on the show. “We’ve pretty much seen and done it all.”
As we speak, the Newcastle-based quartet are all at the hairdressers getting in a last-minute pampering before they jet off to yet another mystery location to film what will be their 54th episode.
To prepare, production gives them only an A4 sheet of paper with bullet points of basic info about the country they’re visiting – the temperature, what time it will be when they land, etc.
