A new cohort of celebrities are about to embark on a race like never before.
Let the race begin! Celebrity Race Across the World kicks off tonight (14th August), as four celebrities all embark on an adventure of a lifetime, with their loved ones joining them on the ultimate race.
As ever, the pairs must leave behind their smartphones, bank cards and the luxurious side of transport and must rely on their skills and ingenuity as well as the kindness of strangers to make it to the final checkpoint first.
Kick starting their journey in the Northern Brazil, the celebrities must make it to their first checkpoint and ideally in first place so they can set off first on the next leg of the race.
The celebrities will be following in similar footsteps of reigning champs Alex Beresford and his dad Noel Beresford, in a hope to be crowned the winners of 2024.
