The start date and route of the next series of Race Across The World has been revealed.
Last year, the show reached a thrilling conclusion with best friends, Alfie and Owen, becoming the first pair to reach the final checkpoint in Lombok.
After a nail-biting boat race to the finish, the friends, were declared winners of the 15,000km race across Eastern Asia and won £20,000.
Along the way, viewers were left ‘a mess’ after a contestant bravely opened up about her heartbreaking diagnosis that left her ‘without a womb’.
The 25-year-old social media and events manager from Yorkshire broke down into tears revealing her health battle.
Now, this year the the BBC have revealed a new destination for the fifth series of the BAFTA-award winning show, and here is everything we know.
Where is it starting?
The starting point of this year’s epic race is none other than The Great Wall of China.
Five teams will have to navigate three of Asia’s most diverse nations across the series.
The included countries will range from China to Nepal and finally India.
All in all, the teams will race more than 14,000km to reach the finish line.
The final ending point will be in the stunning Kanniyakumari, the southernmost tip of India.
Who are the teams?
Following a gripping celebrity series, fans of the show will be keen to find out who will be included this year.
The teams will include sisters Elizabeth and Letitia and former married couple, Yin and Gaz.
Alongside them will be two brothers Brian and Melvyn.
They will be competing against teenage couple, Fin and Sioned.
Finally, rounding off the groups will be mother and son, Caroline and Tom.
What are they allowed to carry with them?
Fans of the show will no doubt be aware that teams are going to be pushed to their absolute limits.
Across the four previous seasons, we’ve seen people almost pushed to their breaking point.
And it appears this time around, it’s not going to be any different.
Racing across vast distances, the contestants will not be allowed to have any smartphones or bank cards.
They are armed only with cash equating to the cost of flying the route, however, only one duo can claim victory over the others and win the cash prize of £20,000.
Last year, Scott Mills and his husband Sam Vaughan won the celebrity version after a trip of a lifetime through South America.
The pair were crowned champions after reaching the final checkpoint in Frutillar in Southern Chile after taking a speed boat James Bond-style in the nail-biting episode.
Kola Bokinni and cousin Mary Ellen were runners-up with Jeff Brazier and son Freddy taking third place, and heart radio host Kelly Brook and husband Jeremy Parisi finishing last.
Race Across The World airs on Wednesday April 23 at 9pm on BBC One and iPlayer.
