HA NOI (VNS)– Cities and provinces from north to south Viet Nam have been selected as destinations for a gameshow titled Mission being shot by Italy's RAI TV.

Hien Luong Bridge in central Quang Tri Province will be the next destination chosen. The TV crew yesterday finished filming the latest show at Me Suot (Mother Suot) Statue in Quang Binh Province's Dong Hoi City. The statute is historically significant as well as a symbol of a Vietnamese heroic mother.

In the filming, eight Italian couples had to sing a Vietnamese song Nhu co Bac Ho Trong Ngay Vui Dai Thang (As If President Ho Chi Minh were here on National Victory Day). Pairs successfully doing this received a ticket to the next destination.

With just one euro provided, the pairs had to ask for road directions as well as for a lift from one destination to the next. During the journey, each couple will be watched by a jury and filmed by a cameraman.

Mission has been shooting in Ha Noi, the northern provinces of Quang Ninh and Ninh Binh, and the central Nghe An Province. – VNS
