TLDR's Race Across Europe kicks off in London, with three teams attempting to deliver as many genuine TLDR Merch Store orders to real fans as possible. Teams have 30 hours to make the deliveries, but they must also make it to the finish line (our 10,000th) order before the end of the game or risk disqualification.

Hey! Thanks for watching the video & I hope you enjoyed it. Three quick things to note:
1. If you do like the series please do sign up to Nebula. Unsurprisingly this was an experience thing to put together, so signing up is the best way to support us - plus it gets you every episode a week early and access to our exclusive behind the scenes race discussions in the Daily Briefing. Be sure to sign up with our link so they know you came from us: go.nebula.tv/tldrnewseu
2. I'd like to thank the team over at Jet Lag for their support and approval of this series. We don't make a big deal of it in the video to avoid confusion, but Ben and Adam were incredibly useful when planning the game, and Sam was very kind to sign off on us doing a series similar to theirs
3. Finally, if you know anyone who might be interested in this show (maybe someone who doesn't care about news, or likes Jet Lag/Amazing Race/Race Across the World) then please do share this video with them. We're super proud of this series and would just love people to see it!
Thanks so much - Jack

TLDR I am surprised not to see Nelson. Is he still in the in the TLDR picture?
Are you coming in Serbia or Macedonia and when?
Amazing video guys! Love it! 😍
As a massive fan of Jet Lag, I'm all for more of it. Fan content is amazing.
Same. Jet lag was the first thing I thought about lmao. This'll be fun
European version of Jet Lag! So cool!
Same
Jet Lag was the first thing on Nebula that convinced me to subscribe
Well, Sam, Adam, and Ben are mentioned in the credits as "Additional Support". :)
Ah yeah, I remember now. The team trying to deliver a package in the Netherlands right during the week when there was a week long strike in the Dutch public transport sector. Almost no busses and no trains. This is going to be fun
It could have been better timing...
@@TLDRnewsEU I feel so sorry for you already. Luckily you can cycle from anywhere to anywhere in the Netherlands, just takes some time but it is possible. I hope someone did this and you didn't all go for cabs or something.
I didn’t know a strike was happening in the Netherlands
@@brentgibson8198 At the time of video recording it was, not anymore now tho.
Watching from Toulouse France, can relate
So glad I decided to buy merch, seeing two teams rushing to Helsingør to deliever my package is so fun
I thought it was my place for a second. I am in Lund
i dont really understand the confusion though. they say hes made a mistake going to Helsingnor yet there it is on the map next to Helsingborg both with yellow dots for delivery and you say it was your delivery. so he didnt make any mistake at all. and the place they claim hes supposed to go is the other side of Denmark.
For those with a lack of comprehension. They already consulted with the Jet lag team. Also Jet Lag are not sole proprietors of the concept of travelling around the world whilst performing tasks.
They didn't invent flight travel and they didn't event challenges.
I didn't have a problem with them doing that kind of competition, but I'm actually happy they did consult Jet lag since I loved their tag across Europe.
Only reason for my comment was because I knew it was all fair game and just didn't want to see the comments full of people complaining. Not only does jetlag not own the idea, but tldr already thanked them in multiple previous news videos. If you ask me they even went out of their way to thank jetlag when they didn't even need too
I was wondering if they took inspiration from Jet Lag, thanks for the clarification.
are people too young to remember the amazing race?
Hear! Hear! Amazing Race has been on TV for yonks!
This is awesome, this is like watching the BBC journalists playing hide and seek, it's so nice seeing you all genuinely having fun !
This is like the channel Jet Lag: The Game
The OG is the Amazing race?😂😂
We were absolutely inspired by Jet Lag as well as other shows like Race Across the World and The Amazing Race. In fact, we actually got tips from Ben and Adam when designing the game - and Sam approved the fact we were doing something similar to them. So it certainly does feel a bit Jet Lag, but fortunately everyone's cool with that! - Jack
TLDR Lag: The Game
Imagine these guys teaming up with the jet lag team, would be an incredibly entertaining collaboration
Jan running ahead seemed like a good strategy, but why did they pass the opportunity to have the others carry his backback and let him run faster?
"The Queen's terminal? I believe she's dead" I'm dead💀
It's great to see TLDR put on a Jetlag esc competition to deliver the orders, it would be legendary if someone from TLDR ever joined Jetlag as a guest for one season.
So glad to have another Amazing Race/Jet Lag style video series to watch! Can’t wait for episode 2!
this looks great.
Well done TLDR its cool to see you guys do something fun.
now I'm disappointed I didn't buy merch
Maybe for the 20,000th order!
@@TLDRnewsEU I'll keep my ear to the ground ;)
We now need a TLDR vs JetLag around the world or even a tag game
This was WAYYYYYY more entertaining than I was expecting. I am absolutely loving this. 😂
Great start, definitely wanna see how it continues! I like how you visualized the time schedules on the right and how you framed the videos with the teams' colors. Very well done!
Fantastic, excited for the series. I know there are some people saying you've plagiarized Jet Lag but I'm sure many are all for it!

@@TLDRnewsEU Great to hear. I'm a big fan of Jet Lag myself.
Racing to reach an international destination in a restricted time period has been a standard rag week activity for many decades at UK universities. It is not a new concept, nor exclusive to any one group. We should at least be grateful these guys didn't have to dress up in fancy dress, as per the rules during rag week. They could have ended up doing this in a chicken costume, or dressed as a banana or a pantomime horse....
@@happybunny1329wow that's interesting!
Ok, this is the reason why The Amazing Race needs to bring back the airport drama. It’s so good. Although the TLDR teams should’ve brushed up on some OG TAR before embarking upon this journey. Prep, people!
Yeaaa I missed the airport drama of Amazing Race!
I watch TLDR UK and Jet Lag. THANK YOU for posting about this on the UK community page. This is a dream come true series! 😊
Jeremy Clarkson would be proud... Reminds me of the race in Japan...
OG Top Gear was definitely one of the inspirations for the series. Growing up I always wanted to do one of their races/challenges, and I guess now I have - Jack
Wow wow wow, what an incredible premiere! The DRAMA, the PUNS - it's all going down. Excited for ep 2 x
British Jet Lag: The Game, great video
This is SO GOOD! This and Jet Lag are some of the best game shows full stop.
Simply amazing. I found myself stressing about where will Ben's team will go and who will make it first to the Danish delivery. Very well made and a cool idea!
Love the video. Probably not a bad shout to thank your friends over at Jet lag as you did in one of the earlier TLDR news videos (mabye pinned comment or description etc). Atleast to stop every seccond comment being "Yo this is just jetlag" etc 🤣 Keep up the solid work team!
That's fair
@@TLDRnewsEU You guys are awesome. Ive already gone and watched week 2 on nebula. We just need a nebula++ now so I can get my hands on week 3 already, it's too addictive
This was so fun to watch! More content like this.
Wow this is just like Jet Lag, I love this concept and I'm so glad two of my favourite channels are doing it!
Just woke my mum up in the middle of the night bc I couldn’t wait to watch the next episode to try and persuade her to pay for the nebula subscription as my 18 bday present- it worked! (she knows you guys are my fav channel) This is hilarious!
Nice one! Which team would you like to win? And happy birthday! :)
I love the Jan/Ben/Scarlett team, excellent balance and immaculate vibes
not the change of pace i expected from TLDR but as a jet lag fan im loving it! hoping to see you guys on a future season :D
Great editing all around! Can't even begin to imagine the amount of work..
Really love the concept!
TLDR Postman simulator 😂
Oh wow, has no one on Ben's team ever flown before? How on earth could they not know that the cut-off time for check-in is 30-60mins before flights are scheduled to leave?!? I don't know if I can watch the next episode... this is all too stressful haha. :)
If you pause it just right at 7:03, there's a fantastic frame of the camera looking up from the pavement at Jack framed by buildings all around with the sky in the background.
This was really really interesting. Would love more content like this.
Amazing first episode to the series! Cannot wait to watch the next one, though I’ve gotta say that as an eastern European it would’ve been nice for more of the destinations to be located further east to incentivize traveling farther from the UK. Still get video nonetheless.
It's a really good point. Ultimately we were limited by the location of the final 10,000th order (which was obviously totally out of our control). We obviously could have still added eastern European spots, but realistically given time and budget it's unlikely people would have picked them anyway. We also wanted to limit options a little, to try and encourage exactly the kind of conflict which happens here. It would definitely have been fun, but unfortunately it was a little out of our control - Jack
@@TLDRnewsEU fair enough. Thanks for the reply mate!
This is so awesome and epic! You should do challenges like this more often. But I would have added a life line where you can call your rival teams 3 or 5 times to ask where they are. It would add a bit of spice to the logistics of the challenge. Overall this is amazing and please do more of these!
Wait until the next episode to find out a bit more about the game mechanics and how teams can find out where the other team might be - or buy Nebula and don't wait. 🙂
This is way better than my country's race travel shows.
Hope you guys do more vlogs like this
And the golden rule strikes again: Should have picked Austria lol
Linz airport is small and usually not busy at all, the city itself is tiny compared to vast cities like Munich, so the delivery would have been an two hour stop - that would have been easier 5 points than the 4 for Munich ;-)
// Edit: Ignore all those AI bots writing nonsense below, one quick lookup on google flight (used correctly) shows up 100 flights from LNZ to London. And obviously there's a over a dozen direct flights alone serviced by Austrian Airline. So it's easy to verify.
I think they would have if they could have, probably no flights (or at least no affordable tickets for a flight) between there and London that day.
@@merijnmeulensteen4209 When I check google flights, it returns over 100 flights for today, so there should be enough options there - Linz is after all one of the major steel production cities of Europe :-)
@@MaxiTBLinz today had exactly two flights, ome to rhodes, and one to Frankfurt, so definetly no 100 flights
@@heybenjii5544 This is complete nonsense; as I mentioned before just go to google flight to see all the flights yourself. And if you can't even find the 13 direct flights that are Austrian airline themselves providing today, well, then you really need to learn how to book flights mate.
@@MaxiTB I do not know what BS you are reading but Linz is currently only served by Lufthansa, one or twice daily from Frankfurt. Besides that, sometimes charters to the south. Learn to use flightradar smartass
Now I can watch both Jet Lag and this to enjoy myself! Amazing!
This is golden. Im on the edge, its very stressful. Love it
i have had so much fun watching it. thanks guys 🙏🏻
This is giving me The Amazing Race vibes and i love it so much.
Good stuff! That joke from Jan cracked me up!
So intense! Great video
This was genuinely lovely.
“Across Europe”. It would be like going from New York to Chicago and writing Across USA.
Ben 18:32 "where the hell are we" is priceless!
This is great. Anytime there is a race/game across Europe I’m instantly in.
This is so fun! Absolutely love it
Had I known about this, I would’ve placed an order to Australia.
500 Points 😂
This was awesome, gave me major top gear challenge vibes
I'm currently at five minutes and I am 100% sure the team that went to Germany got stuck at some point for an hour or two because of the Deutsche Bahn.
I present to you; Jet Lag the Game: British Edition
Lol fr
I love Jack sitting right next to the competition in the plane lol
Incredible
loved this , keep diversifying guys!
This is way better than the news!
love this series
This is so much fun to watch!
Remaining budget as prize? I know if I was playing I'd be very tempted to give up on the game and vlog a £2500 holiday with my best mates😂 excited to see what happens next!
My strategy would have been to hire a car and clean up the UK. Fly from Edinburgh to Dublin, then a Ryanair flight to the Netherlands and grab those early. A bit boring perhaps, but getting some early points in would be a great boost.
Mom: "we have jet lag the game at home"
jet lag the game at home:
Dangit, I just watched the second episode on Nebula, but now I still have to wait for the continuation. It's still exciting.
This is like a uk version of that wedover productions chasing thing
I remember seeing the face of Sam first time lol
"why is british transport the worst"
clearly she hasn't seen new york city transit
There should have been a carbon budget instead of a GBP budget.
"Why is British transport the worst?"
*laughs in American*
I'm really enjoying this, even if I'm on the edge of my seat.... which is a good thing cause I was about to fall asleep at my desk.
You bamboozled me into going to my door at 1:07. It's the exact same sound :D
I have been wanting for this
More Jet Lag-style series? Yes please!
The awkward moment when someone gets to terminal to check in and realize they’ve forgotten their passport
This is like a old top gear episode 😅 keep am coming !
This is actually really fun‼️
British Jet Lag kinda goes crazy criminally underviewed video
YESSS JET LAG 2!
flying to millan/vienna with an interrail ticket is the only optimal choice.
Great iteniary visualisations!
That Ghost Icon on the Denmark Order is my favorite part of this episode :O
I thanked the algorithm to show me that my favourite news channel HAS A RACE?!
Amazing Race but nerdier. I love it😂 Next time come to Kenya.
I'd love to hear Jago's take on the tactical decisions made here in regards to London transportation - I was so confused
It's on nebula, last part of the daily briefing last monday. I didn't get much wiser from it, because all these metro/train stations don't mean anything to me. But they explain how they went from the lobby to the airport(s).
this is one of those games you'd love to play with/against your friends but can't afford to lol
Mom: We have Jet Lag the Game at home.
The Jet Lag the Game at home...
I mean they worked with the Jet Lagged guys on this so... 😉
I really enjoyed this
Incredible guys!
Didn’t ask for this, but very glad to have received it.
🙂
Nailed it.
Amazing consept
From Munich to the Netherlands with the DB now this gonna be interesting. (If they even get to Munich)
Yea, they're in for a treat...
Great fun, enjoyed the video. Think I would have run to Waterloo and got a fast train to Southampton Airport where the terminal is adjacent to the platform and gone to Jersey. After that you could fly to France and on the Netherlands.
would love to this this again
Just the sheer panic 😂
Finally its here
Yes I've waited ages for this to be published too. And now, all I've ended up with is a sleepless night waiting to find out what happens to poor Ben's team lol. :)
didn't expect this kind of video from you guys 🙂
Almost didn't click the thumbnail
Love you guys!!!
Jack pointing at the whole of the Netherlands; "We can rule out this section. It is so low value."
Yeah man, I feel ya...
I'm sorry to the people of the Netherlands - you are very high value... but in the game... less so
Also, who knows, the Netherlands could end up being much more important later in the series! - Jack
@@TLDRnewsEU Already looking forward to it! 👍
Oh noooo i don't wanna wait.
I’m seeing more and more games using whole cities or countries as game boards and as a jet lag fan, I approve
