The Race (1)
Revision as of 23:37, 28 October 2004
Synopsis
Eight people were chosen in auditions to take part in a race around the world. The producers paired them up themselves with entertainment potential in mind.
The race was in legs and the teams had a very limited amount of money. Completing a leg within the given time limit meant winning a top up. Coming first in any leg meant receiving a cash bonus. Not checking in on time meant getting no monetary help for the next leg. Saving up is good, because the first team to finish the final leg won a rather large cash bonus, £50,000.
Each leg would involve getting from A to B via either C or D to perform a task.
This was meant to be ITV2's flagship launch show. Sadly it came across as being rather dull and plodding, the exact opposite of the US show The Amazing Race it appeared to be based on.
