They had to face the map room and provide a final guess to where they were.
Ashvin had picked up on a Viennese Waltz hint - but mispronounced it as "Vietnamese Waltz".

Reacting to the gaffe, one fan said online: "Not the guy who says he's smart calling a Viennese Waltz a Vietnamese Waltz."
Another remarked: "Vietnamese Waltz' is this show a parody."
Despite the mishap, Ashvin ultimately managed to survive elimination.
It was instead Chloe-Anne who departed the bus - having decided to guess Vienna over Salzburg.

Speaking afterwards, she said: "I knew we hadn't come far enough to get all the way down to Vienna, to be honest.
"I should have trusted my gut on that."

Patrick Kielty's 'seething' family reveal sad moment they realised Cat Deeley marriage was over
A moment in Patrick Kielty's marriage to Cat Deeley is said to have shown his family his relationship with the This Morning presenter was over for good The family of Patrick Kielty as are to have known was marriage to Cat Deeley was over due to a specific moment - and it's thought to have left them seething. The TV duo issued a joint statement last month to confirm they had gone their separate ways. At the time, they said: "We have taken the decision to end our marriage and are now separated. There is no other party involved. "We will continue to be united as loving parents to our children and would therefore kindly ask for our family privacy to be respected. There will be no further comment.' Paul Hollywood issues plea as brother suffers 'unprovoked and nasty assault' And while the bombshell statement came across as amicable, it's said that one move by This Morning host Cat, 48, left 54-year-old Patrick's family annoyed. Cat's 'no show' at the funeral of Patrick's mum Mary in March is said to have left the Kielty family angry and it's thought this moment confirmed to them that their relationship was fully finished. A relative told the Daily Mail: "Whatever rockiness was going on in the marriage, something as a momentous as his mother's funeral, you would make up even temporarily and just put your 'best face' on as we say in Northern Ireland. "Cat obviously knew how close Patrick was to Mary and she should have come to be by his side, a hand on his shoulder as he buried his mother. The fact that she stayed in London and presented This Morning on the day, it's not been forgotten." And the source claimed people still can't believe Cat's actions, adding: "It was the point when we all realised that that marriage had ended." A spokesperson told Mirror at the time: "Cat remained at home to be there for her two young children before and after school on this very sad day." Patrick's family are now said to be rallying around the presenter as he comes to terms with his future. The duo had met while hosting BBC 's Fame Academy together in 2002. However, they only made their first public appearance as a couple nine years later in 2011. Just a year later in September 2012 and they had tied the knot at a ceremony in Rome and have two children together. While Cat works alongside Ben Shephard on This Morning, Northern Irish presenter Patrick is the host of RTE talk show The Late Late Show, having taken over from Ryan Tubridy in 2023. It's unclear when the couple split. However, with the duo spending time apart due to conflicting schedules in Ireland and London, it's thought this may have contributed to their break-up. The last time Cat referenced Patrick on her Instagram was in October 2023. At the time, she posted an unusual 90s-themed slideshow of the pair of them. She wrote: "Slightly terrifying but obsessed." And the last public event appearance for the pair came a month earlier. At the time, she also shared a post on her social media. It showed the duo smiling at the event as they got ready for the occasion and then sat in the crowd. Patrick was later seen in the clip being welcomed on stage.

Patrick Kielty seen for first time since split from Cat Deeley after 13 years of marriage
Patrick Kielty and Cat Deeley are both known for their successful broadcast careers - with Cat being the most recent host of ITV's This Morning Patrick Kielty has been seen for the first time since his sudden split from Cat Deeley after 13 years of marriage. The pair recently announced that they would be going their separate ways after more than a decade together, much to the shock of fans. However, he has now been spotted out and about as he went to purchase some wine on Saturday. He broke his cover this weekend as he ventured out of his London home and went to a nearby shop. The 54-year-old went for a casual look as he wore a grey T-shirt along with a pair of jeans and Crocs. He covered his face up with a pair of sunglasses as he carried a shopping bag filled with his purchases. It comes after Cat Deeley found moving back to the UK 'really hard' before split from Patrick Kielty. Patrick Kielty 'to be in very dark place' if new Cat Deeley fear unravels Patrick and the This Morning presenter announced last week that they would be ending their marriage. The couple share two sons, Milo, seven and James, five. They both stressed that "no other party" was involved in the reason for their split. They released a joint statement as they told their fans that they were no longer together. The pair wrote: "We have taken the decision to end our marriage and are now separated. There is no other party involved. We will continue to be united as loving parents to our children and would therefore kindly ask for our family privacy to be respected. There will be no further comment." Cat and Patrick first crossed paths when they were both hosting BBC 's Fame Academy together in 2002, but it wasn't until 2011 that they finally decided to take their friendship to a romantic level. The two tied the knot a year later in September 2012 at a ceremony in Rome. Insiders have since claimed that it was their equally busy work schedules that got in the way and drove a wedge between their marriage. Cat has hosted ITV 's This Morning alongside Ben Shephard since early last year, and previously lived in Los Angeles for more than 10 years. Meanwhile, Northern Irish presenter Patrick is the host of RTE talk show The Late Late Show, having taken over from Ryan Tubridy in 2023. Despite living in the UK, Patrick would travel to Dublin every week to present the show from the RTE studios. Due to their clashing schedules, it was reported that it became difficult for Patrick and Cat to spend quality time together. The source said: "It is such sad news. They were so happy after they moved back to London, and would talk about their grand plans to renovate the house for the family. "But sadly, as so often happens with relationships, work got in the way and it put a huge strain on the marriage." Cat and Patrick hadn't been pictured together in public for over a year and Cat also missed Patrick's mother's funeral in March but this was put down to the mum-of-two looking after their sons.
