Very fun, and very interesting show about different countries, traditions, food and experience. It was shooting many seasons with different broadcasters. Sometimes they return in the same city after some years and show what changed in there.

Yesterday, I promised you to write about one TV show. So, I want to write a little about it.

It's called ”Орел и Решка." Is the one of the most popular shows on Russian television. At first, it started in Ukraine, but since broadcasters spoke in Russian, this show was later begun shown on Russian TV. Travelling to different countries is the main theme of the show. Two young broadcasters stay in the new country on weekend. One of them takes only 100 dollars for this journey. The other one has an unlimited Gold Card! The one who takes the card would be absolutely rich, live in the most expensive hotels, use luxury cars, and get fabulous entertainment. The one who takes a 100 dollars would search for the cheapest hostels, simple street food, and, of course, will travel on foot. Who will be rich, and who will be poor is decided by the coin. "Орел и решка" means "heads or tails", that is, different sides of a coin. The broadcasters throw the coin, whatever side is on top determines how they will travel.

It's a very fun, and very interesting show about different countries, traditions, food and experience. A lot of seasons were shot with different broadcasters. Sometimes they return to the same city some years later and show what has changed in there. Certainly, I could not see each of them, which maybe it is not that bad, because sometimes I enjoy spending my time with my family for watching this nice TV show.

Very interesting :) Thanks for the recommendation

A TV show about travels [1]

Yesterday, I promised you to I would [2] write about one a TV show. So, I want to make write some words about it.

It's called -” Орел и Решка." and is the one of the most popular Programm programmes [3] on Russian television. Firstly, it started on in Ukraine, but its broadcasters [4] spoke in Russian; for this reason, later this show was begun later [5] shown on Russian TV. Travelling in around different countries is the main theme of the show. Two young broadcasters both [6] stay in the a new country on the weekend. One of them only [5] takes 100 dollars [7] in on this the [8] journey only 100 dollars. Another one have has an unlimited Gold Card! Which one of them The one who takes a the card would is [9] be absolutely rich, lives in the most expensive hotels, uses travels in luxury cars, and gets fabulous entertainments. Which The one who takes a 100 dollars would searches for the cheapest hostels, simple street food, and, of course, will travels on foot. Who will be rich, and who will be poor is decided by the coin. "Орел и решка" is a are different sides of a the coin [10]. The broadcasters throw the coin and which side will be on top faces upwards determines which journeys get the chosen one.

It's a very fun, and very interesting [11] show about different countries, traditions, food and experience. It was shooting shot [12] for many seasons with different broadcasters. Sometimes they return in the same city after some years and show what has changed in there. Certainly I could certainly not see [5] every one of them and, maybe it is not a bad thing, because sometimes I have a joy enjoy [13] to spending my time with my family for and viewing watching this nice TV show.


[1] Articles are a common mistake for Slavic language speakers. It's something that's worth correcting sooner rather than later and this is best done through repetition. It's needed here, because you are presenting the topic: this TV show is new to me (the reader), therefore, it is a TV show.

[2] Reported speech is needed here because we make promises for the future. Now: I promise you I'll write... Past: I promised you I would write...

[3] When using superlative adjectives, you need to name the noun in the plural form i.e. one of the most + superlative adjective + plural noun. Also, programme is British English and program is American, it's your choice which one you use.

[4] broadcaster usually refers to the organisation that broadcasts the show, though you will find its use as presenter in some dictionaries. Nevertheless, I suggest you use presenter.

[5] A common rule for word order and adverb placement:
subj. + aux. verb + adverb + main verb
The TV show + was + later + shown
One of them + only + takes

[6] I've added both here because the subject is "travelling around countries" and it's not clear if the presenters travel separately or together.

[7] Another common rule for orders:
subj. + verb + object
One (of them) + takes + 100 dollars
This is important because in Russian you can change sentence order, whereas in English you can't.

[8] this can't be used as a relative pronoun here, because journey hasn't been mentioned as a subject.

[9] There is no condition here, so would doesn't really fit.

[10] Орел и решка translates to heads and tails in English, which are on different sides of the same coin.

[11] very applies to both adjectives here so you don't need to repeat it.

[12] to shoot as an active verb means either to shoot from a camera e.g. a film, a programme, or to shoot from a gun. to be shot as a passive verb is used when the programme is the subject of the sentence e.g. The programme is shot in different countries.

[13] to have joy as a collocation doesn't exist in English, we just use the verb to enjoy.
