Race Across the World
Revision as of 18:57, 28 February 2019
Synopsis
Couples are challenged to get from London to Singapore. They're given the air fare in cash.
Easy, just go to the airport and buy a ticket, right? Wrong - they're not allowed to fly. Overland transport only.
OK, whack it all on the credit card, right? Nope - they're not allowed to use any money other than the initial air fare.
Er, ring up someone and ask for a lift? Nada - there are no mobile phones.
First to Singapore wins a cash prize, and (presumably) a flight home. From the publicity, we suspect this will be as much about the relationships as about the travel.
This programme has not yet aired. A full review will appear here after broadcast.
