How to watch Celebrity Race Across the World season 3 for FREE

If you feel disillusioned or uninspired, Race Across the World might help. It never fails to conjure that visceral sense of escape and adventure you just don’t get with regular travel shows, and the third edition of the celebrity spinoff is fronted by Countryfile presenter Anita Rani, Derry Girls and Big Boys star Dylan Llewellyn, EastEnders actor and former Britain’s Got Talent finalist Molly Rainford, DJ Tyler West, and The One Show presenter Roman Kemp, son Spandau Ballet’s Martin Kemp.

In pairs, with just a map, a limited budget (which they can top up by working odd jobs) and the kindness of strangers to guide them, they’ll tread a peripatetic 5,900km path from Isla Mujeres, the easternmost point of Mexico, to the Guajira Peninsula, the northernmost region of South America at the tip of Colombia and Venezuela, via five checkpoints.

And it won’t all be golden beaches and ancient Mayan ruins. They’ll also run the gauntlet of the notorious Darien Gap, a mountainous, roadless, and effectively lawless mass of rainforest bridging Panama and Colombia, where countless desperate migrants have lost their lives.

Stamina is as key to Race Across the World as initiative, and by that measure Anita and her 68-year-old father Bal might be at a disadvantage. They’ve also never been on holiday together. At the other end of the spectrum, Roman and sister Harleymoon have clocked up plenty of air miles. Molly and Tyler are no strangers to a holiday either, but only if it’s poolside at an all-inclusive resort, while Dylan and his 59-year-old mum Jackie are wary of taking things too easy.
