Switzerland is an episode of a travel programme that follows a pair as they make their way through Europe. The show documents their progress from one country to the next, with each instalment highlighting a particular location. This instalment centres on their time in Switzerland, presenting the nation’s distinctive attractions and its scenic vistas. During the Swiss leg, the duo board a mountain‑side rollercoaster, experiencing the rapid ascent and swift descent typical of such rides. The coaster runs along the alpine terrain, offering a direct encounter with the region’s elevation and landscape, and the surrounding views. Their reaction to the ride forms a central moment of the episode. Following the thrill of the coaster, the pair turn to a cultural activity by trying yodelling, a traditional Swiss vocal practice.
