Viewers will see Alfie and Owen, Sharon and Brydie, Eugenie and Isabel, Stephen and Viv, and Betty and James race to their final destination with the hopes of bagging the cash prize.

Previous winners of Race Across The World include Elaine and Tony, Emon and Jamiul, and Tricia and Cathie, who all successfully scooped up the giant jackpot.

Upon announcing this new season, the BBC said: "From northernmost Japan, they will cross six seas and eight borders, skirting the path of the volcanic ring of fire – the most geologically unstable region on the planet to reach the finish line in Lombok, an idyllic Indonesian island paradise."
