Adoring Race Across the World (UK)
Posted on
Okay, I love a travel programme whether it's about the flashiest of hotels, about cruises, about well-known train journeys but I'm absolutely mad about Race Across the World which is a UK TV series but hopefully searchable for others living elsewhere.
They've already been two series that you can find on BBC iPlayer where contestants raced from London to Singapore in the first one and then a new set of contestants raced from Mexico City to Ushuaia, Argentina. They can't travel by air. They don't have smart phones or debit/credit cards. They have just a map and money that's the equivalent of the air fare. They have checkpoints to reach and there's prize money for the first couple that reaches the end destination. This third series started last Wednesday night where they're travelling right across Canada and oh my word. It's looking like it's going to be an incredible series. I wasn't sure how it'd work essentially going across a single country but the footage of things to come look spectacular. You won't find me on series 4 (very camera shy!) but wow it's inspiring me! xx
