}}Race Across the World is a British television competition programme, in which teams of two race around the world to be the fastest to reach their destination.[1] The programme is broadcast on BBC Two.[2]

Format

The programme follows pairs of competitors racing around the world to be the first to reach their destination, starting from London and finishing in Singapore. The competitors cannot fly, but were each given an amount of money equivalent to a one-way plane ticket to their final destination of £1,329, which they can use to travel by land or sea. The money pays for all the cost of the travel including food and accommodation, but they may work to earn money along the way. The competitors may not have any mobile electronic devices or credit card at the start of the race, but were given a world map, a GPS device to track their progress, a travel guide with local job adverts, and the money for them to travel. In every episode the teams were given a checkpoint they had to reach. One team may be eliminated if they come last at a pre-determined checkpoint. At each checkpoint, the racers were given a 36-hour break. The first team to reach Singapore win a cash prize of £20,000.[2]

The programme was commissioned by David Brindley and Michael Jochnowitz for BBC Two. The series is narrated by John Hannah.

Series 1 (2019)

Contestants

Sue and Clare were eliminated when they finished last in Baku.[4]

Retired PE teachers Tony and Elaine Teasdale were the first to reach the final checkpoint in Singapore and were crowned the winners.[5]
