Destination X locations for all episodes in series 1 so far
Gamemaster Rob Brydon is currently leading a group of contestants around a handful of European towns, cities and countries with one objective in mind – to figure out where the X they are, by using only clues gathered from challenges in each episode. Just some of the places the cast have already visited on board the blacked-out X-bus include the romantic French capital of Paris. But over the next few weeks, even more players will be dumped from the X-bus if they place their X too far away on the map when the time comes to guess. The person left at the very end will take home a staggering £100,000 – who do you think it will be? Where was the Destination X location in series 1 episodes?

Are there other Destination X series? If you can watch in UK
Dubbed as 'The Traitors meets Race Across the World', Destination X sees contestants travel around Europe onboard the X-bus and asked one simple question - where the X are they? With blacked out windows, all they have to do is try and figure out where they are, competing in challenges (some secret) along the way, because at the end of every episode they must place an X on a map and guess their location. Whoever puts their X furthest away from the location is immediately thrown off the X-bus and eliminated from the competition. However, the winner will return home with a cash prize of £100,000 – who is your favourite so far? Are there any other versions of BBC Destination X? See if you can watch in the UK But if watching the new UK series isn't enough, there are others that might interest you too. The BBC's format is based on a Belgian show called Bestemming X, which first aired in 2023. Over the last few years, there have been various versions of the puzzling reality show in other countries, such as the Netherlands, France and Germany, NME reports. Who is Rob Brydon? Additionally, an American version of Destination X was commissioned at the same time as the UK's, which was announced as a joint deal between NBCUniversal and the BBC. The US edition (also titled Destination X) is presented by The Walking Dead favourite Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Sadly, those in the UK aren't currently able to watch the various Destination X series mentioned above. Bestemming X is available on Dutch streaming service Videoland, but this isn't accessible for UK viewers without a VPN. Recommended reading: However, although nothing has been confirmed yet, it could be possible that the US' Destination X (currently available on Peacock), will eventually come to BBC iPlayer. This would be similar to how The Traitors US was released previously. What do you think of Destination X so far? Let us know in the comments.
