    With just over a week to go until the launch of the second series of the BAFTA award-winning Celebrity Race Across the World, the BBC have revealed the line-up of celebrities set to take part.

    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.

    With the first episode of the highly anticipated new season scheduled to premiere at 9pm on Wednesday, August 14th 2024 on iPlayer and BBC One, this years contestants journey will begin 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.

    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”.

    As in previous seasons, contestants 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”.

    Watch the official trailer for Celebrity Race Across The World 2024 below:


    Speaking ahead of the new series, Tim Harcourt, Chief Creative Officer, Studio Lambert said: “After the phenomenally successful run of the first celebrity series, and more recently the fourth series of the regular series – we can’t wait to bring audiences along with us to the huge South American continent and its jaw-dropping scenery, in a race which will push our celebrities and their loved ones to their absolute limits.”

    With Catherine Catton, Head of Commissioning, Factual Entertainment and Events adding: “We’ve been delighted by the success of celebrity Race Across the World, and are now incredibly excited to see some new famous faces and their loved ones take on this difficult yet highly rewarding race of a lifetime. We cannot wait to watch their journey unfold.”
