FIRST LOOK: CELEBRITY RACE ACROSS THE WORLD RETURNS TO BBC ONE

BAFTA award-winning Celebrity Race Across the World from producers Studio Lambert, returns for a highly anticipated second series at 9pm on Wednesday 14th August on BBC One and iPlayer.

The four new famous faces embarking on an epic 12,500 km race of a lifetime are: broadcaster Jeff Brazier and his son, Freddy; actor Kola Bokinni and his cousin, Mary Ellen; broadcaster Kelly Brook and her husband, Jeremy and Radio 2 host Scott Mills and his husband (then fiancé), Sam.

Their journey begins in Belém, Northern Brazil - the gateway to the Amazon - and will pass through five checkpoints across the length of South America, to reach the finish line in the Andes, Frutillar in Southern Chile.

Our familiar faces will say goodbye to lavish transport, smartphones and bank cards and instead must rely on their skills, cunning and ingenuity as well as the kindness of strangers.

Once again, joining the celebrities will be their nearest and dearest, providing a unique insight into people we thought we knew, through the eyes of those who know them best.

Celebrity Race Across The World returns Wednesday 14th August on BBC One.
