Did anyone else watch Dispatches From Elsewhere?
Couple of years old now, but I've just finished it (it's on Amazon Prime)
Not entirely sure what to make of it. It tried to do something really cool, sometimes landing it and sometimes not quite. It did have a lot of positives overall
But... what I found out googling it, was that it's based on real event!
I've always loved the idea of making something like this, but practically I know it's impossible. Often thought that if anyone was stupid enough to ask me to be a best man I would for their stag do. Such a cool idea, a mysterious, free treasure hunt, hidden in the real world.
