INTO THE JUNGLE: MEET THE PARENTS AND CHILDREN TAKING PART IN NEW CHANNEL 4 SERIES

In this brand-new six-part series from Twenty Twenty productions, world-renowned explorer and former British Army captain Ed Stafford sets up an extreme survival school that will put struggling modern dads and their children through some of the toughest outdoor challenges on the planet.

Ed’s plan is to establish an extreme wilderness adventure school, based on programs he has been part of here in the UK, helping struggling modern dads - and their kids - by putting them both through some of the toughest outdoor experiences on the planet.

Over the course of several weeks a group of ordinary, struggling, out-of-their-comfort-zone British dads - each bringing one of their kids with them - will live in the heart of the Central American jungle: sleeping in home-made shelters, catching and cooking their own food, digging toilets, building fires, dodging spiders, snakes and scorpions while dealing with boiling heat, biting insects and sky-high humidity.

But that isn’t all. As they battle to cope with the extremes of everyday life, in each episode they’ll also have to tackle a wilderness challenge specially designed by Ed to test both their individual characters and their relationships with one another.
