Overview
- The celebrity spin-off debuted on BBC One and BBC iPlayer at 8pm on Thursday 6 November, with narration by John Hannah.
- The four teams are Anita Rani with her father Bal, Dylan Llewellyn with his mum Jackie, Tyler West with Molly Rainford, and Roman Kemp with his sister Harleymoon.
- The route begins on Isla Mujeres in Mexico and ends at Colombia’s Península de La Guajira, spanning roughly 5,900km through five checkpoints revealed as the race unfolds.
- Contestants travel without smartphones or internet on an allowance reported at about £30 per day, a budget production sets using advance, security-supported route trials.
- Producers stress a hands-off approach in which crews do not guide racers and step in only to prevent danger, with multi-skilled security/medic support shadowing each team.
