Six months after the finish line, the five pairs of travellers from Race Across the World are back together for one last debrief. Airing Wednesday, 18 June, at 9:00 PM BST on BBC One, this one-off reunion special gathers the teams to look back on their 14,000km trek across Asia and discuss how the experience has changed their lives.
From the Great Wall of China to the southern tip of India in Kanniyakumari, the series followed the contestants as they dealt with tight budgets, transportation breakdowns, and the general friction of constant travel. Now, with some distance from the grind, they’re ready to share unseen moments and behind-the-scenes stories from their journey.
The reunion is a chance to see how the intense, screen-free adventure has influenced their relationships and perspectives. For fans of the show, it’s a welcome epilogue, a chance to catch up with the personalities they followed for weeks and learn what happens after the cameras stop rolling. This special looks to be a heart-warming look back at the highs, lows, and enduring connections forged on the road.
