00:00There is something quite scary about not knowing where you're going.
00:07It's mad nerve-wracking where we're gonna sleep, what we're gonna eat, how we're gonna get there.
00:12Me and dad want a proper adventure.
00:14Even if we don't come first, which we will.
00:17If we won the race, I think a lot of people will be surprised.
00:21Nothing to lose.
00:2228 days ago, four teams embarked on a race from Mexico to Colombia.
00:31You have to have a strong stomach first.
00:34This is really stressful.
00:35Oh, it is hot.
00:37Surviving the tough realities of the competition.
00:40This is madness. Adrenaline.
00:42He's sped up.
00:43It's unbelievable.
00:45That's a big fat bed bug.
00:47My head's fried, I don't know what the hell to think.
00:51Has strengthened them.
00:53I feel a sense of lightness about me now.
00:56And the relationships.
00:58I never really said thanks for that.
01:00Come on.
01:01Oh, this film, that's amazing.
01:03I've cancelled the funeral plans, by the way.
01:06Now, in the final stretch.
01:08Go, go, go.
01:09This is what Yorkshire's prepared us for.
01:11Which team will triumph.
01:12Famous, famous, famous.
01:13We've put ourselves through so much.
01:15We've gotta win this man.
01:16In a race.
01:17I believe in you.
01:18Across the world.
01:19It all comes down to this.
01:34Wow.
01:35This city is massive.
01:36So much colour as well.
01:38In the verdant mountains of northwestern Colombia, Medellin's skyline of high rises.
01:45The city has reinvented itself as a modern hub of culture, innovation and bold urban design.
01:53Here, the final leg of the race begins.
01:56We've been in such rural locations.
01:59This is the moment we're starting in a big city onto this final stretch.
02:03Yeah.
02:04And it's a bit overwhelming.
02:05It is a little bit.
02:06It's a bit sensory overload.
02:07There's so much going on.
02:09There's pros and cons to being in a big city.
02:11Loads of transportation.
02:12Traffic.
02:13Traffic.
02:14Yeah.
02:15Fast forms of transportation.
02:16Yeah.
02:17Money.
02:18Money.
02:19Exactly.
02:20The pros and cons are literally hand in hand.
02:21Yeah.
02:22Hand in hand.
02:23Hey.
02:24Yeah.
02:25With just one leg left to run, Molly and Tyler have leapt from last place to first,
02:31while two teams are still en route to the checkpoint.
02:34We thought we were doing okay.
02:36And when we saw that you guys were ahead, we were so shocked.
02:40I was happy for you guys, but also I was like, how?
02:43Not only have you made up the time, you've pushed two hours ahead.
02:45Yeah.
02:46I'm like, oh, man.
02:47We were speechless.
02:48We've just found our rhythm with it a little bit better.
02:50How do you think the others have got on?
02:52I really don't know.
02:55Locate your checkpoint.
02:56Right, Dad, keep your eyes peeled.
02:58It's got to be here somewhere.
03:00Hola.
03:01A click-clack hotel?
03:02No.
03:03¿Dónde esta click-clack hotel?
03:05Come on, somebody.
03:07Do you reckon that's it there, that big black building?
03:10Yes.
03:11Down there on the left.
03:12We've got it.
03:13This is it.
03:14This is it.
03:15This is it.
03:16Dad's quick.
03:17We've made it.
03:18Dad, come on.
03:19Oh.
03:20All right.
03:21Third.
03:22What day?
03:23Day 29.
03:2512.
03:2614.
03:27That set us back a bit.
03:29We're 18 hours behind.
03:31But we won't progress if I keep thinking about it.
03:34Molly and Tyler were last and they came first.
03:37So things can flip around.
03:39Still number three.
03:40We're number three.
03:41Well done.
03:42We're hoping we'll be the comeback kids.
03:44We don't give up.
03:46Okay.
03:47Be gentle.
03:49It's lost.
03:50Wow.
03:51We were struggling.
03:53It was a real gut punch going from first to last.
03:56What's the time?
03:5712.31.
03:58Money in transport did not go our way.
04:02I don't know how we're still here.
04:04No, I don't know how we're still here.
04:06That's good.
04:07As the finish line looms, last place Dylan and Jackie are the most cash strapped.
04:13And while funds are also dwindling for other teams, Roman and Harley Moon still have a quarter of their budget left.
04:20How did your budget go on this?
04:23I don't.
04:24Budget is a little bit tight.
04:25But I'm hoping we've got enough pennies in the bank just to get us to the end.
04:29Molly and Tyler, they're really good competitors.
04:31They've showed that throughout the race.
04:33But can they maintain the lead?
04:36We want them to be just peeping over the shoulder.
04:39Money-wise, you're probably in a better position than us.
04:42But you guys haven't come first yet.
04:44We're saving it to the end.
04:47The one thing we're not going to do going into this next leg is lose our heads.
04:51In this race, anything can happen.
04:53I mean, Dylan and Jackie and Anita and Bao, what if they find some journey like you guys did that just bypasses everyone?
05:01We've just got to keep our cool and not pay attention to that.
05:05The outside noise.
05:06Nah.
05:07Do you know what the best thing about this leg is though?
05:09Go on.
05:10No more borders.
05:11Oh!
05:12I am so relieved.
05:13Thank the Lord.
05:14I am so relieved to not get another step.
05:16Unless they send us into Venezuela.
05:18Oh no, don't say that!
05:19Harley, why are you manifesting that?
05:21We literally sat on like a praying hand.
05:24It's not the place to say it.
05:31Hello guys.
05:32Hello.
05:33Hello.
05:34With less than a two hour lead.
05:35I have this envelope for you.
05:37Excellent.
05:38Let's go for it.
05:39First to depart, Molly and Tyler.
05:40Congratulations on reaching the final leg.
05:41Head to Uribia and await further instructions.
05:44Uribia.
05:45Woo!
05:46Map out.
05:47Final time.
05:48Where is Uribia?
05:49Okay.
05:50Uribia.
05:51There.
05:52Over 1,000 kilometres from bustling Medellin, at the northern tip of South America, Uribia.
05:57Gateway to the vast La Guajira desert where teams face a final challenge and must overcome scarce infrastructure, arid terrain and searing temperatures.
06:12In one of the country's most remote regions.
06:13So, we've got to go up here.
06:14What looks like the quickest way on the map?
06:15To reach the finish line, teams could set a course inland.
06:16Traversing the sprawling eastern Andes via transport connections in the map.
06:17To reach the finish line, teams could set a course inland.
06:18Traversing the sprawling eastern Andes via transport connections in the map.
06:19The major cities along the national highway.
06:20It could be the major cities along the national highway.
06:21It could be the major cities, and could be the most difficult way to read.
06:22And to reach the finish line, teams could set a course inland.
06:24and searing temperatures in one of the country's most remote regions
06:31so we've got to go up here what looks like the quickest way on the map to
06:37reach the finish line teams could set a course inland traversing the sprawling
06:43eastern Andes via transport connections in the major cities along the national
06:47highway or they may be tempted by the popular tourist trail that hugs the
06:52Caribbean coast a chance to enjoy historic gems but where travel can be costly
07:00we could go inland Bukaramanga is looking like a major city there'll be a decent
07:07bus route to Euribia but we could go by the coast to Karthagena there must be a
07:13reason why it's so popular with backpackers it must be well connected and it
07:17would be nice to see the coast one last time yeah let's do it you ready
07:21yeah me and moles are putting into play everything that has went well for us on
07:26this trip so far maybe we can jump on another overnight bath that's a really
07:30good plan using well-connected destinations along a backpacker route the Molly and
07:36Tyler strategy is coming into full effect on this final stretch we've got to win
07:40this man the couple's plan head straight to the Caribbean coast to Cartagena to take advantage
07:48of its transport links to propel them towards Euribia oh I'm excited I like this energy I'm very competitive
07:58I just like winning it's fun the fact that we've got such a clear root in our head fills me with confidence
08:06if Molly loses it's like you just like sneezed on her forehead like she is fuming
08:13fuming right let's go find a bus but you are good at winning so I'd rather be on your team thank you
08:21we're looking to get to Karthagena
08:25it's expensive but we won't have to pay for a hotel let's do it okay boom can we get the Cartagena
08:45dos personas muchas gracias by taking the overnight bus we're saving money and we're still traveling the
08:53same distance but we're gonna wake up in Cartagena hopefully that's enough to take us through how long
08:59we got to wait for this bus about five hours oh but what we can do in that time is eat as Molly and
09:12Tyler gamble on delaying their departure right let's go setting off just under two hours behind
09:19them Roman and Harley Moon we've got to go east at some point all down that right side is mountain
09:26could be long journeys along the Caribbean coast could be quicker yeah well what if we found a bus to
09:33take us as far as possible up here Baron Queer I've got the weirdest fact in my head because I've
09:39interviewed her once but I think Shakira is from Baron Queer and if we meet Shakira that would be
09:45great in their last leg the thing that gave Molly and Tyler the win was that overnight bus if we can
09:52get a night bus to Baron Queer that would be amazing then after that we head to Santa Marta and then the
09:58next town the next town let's just try and get close to Jack going last leg it all comes down to this
10:04hopefully we make it to that book and there's no names in the first time I've been chasing Molly and
10:16Tyler to the coast Roman and Harley Moon are aiming further north to Baron Queer then plan to city hop
10:22via Santa Marta towards Uribia okay I've got that nervous sick feeling I'm gonna be on edge about
10:31every decision that we're about to make a lot of these legs didn't go our way we need some good luck if
10:37we won the race I think it'd be a miracle why are you running because we're in a race
10:44mom and dad would be so happy if we won Monteria, Cartagena, Baron Queer
10:54dad would be buzzing and mom just cares that we come home in one piece
10:59I don't know if I'm looking at the bus time or the football I'm quite interested in the football it's
11:06man United ready little brother hola those but I but I'm Kia and I see it a la noche 7 p.m. and
11:14other destination temple 14 hour bus so 8 9 10 11 12 13 8 9 10 11 12 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 I've lost it
11:34this is the most expensive bus of the race should we do it yeah our whole strategy has been save our
11:50cash so right at the end we have the budget to spend on a good bus not have to worry about that
12:00we've got four hour wait but by tomorrow morning we might be the closest team to the checkpoint
12:07do you know the best thing I can watch the rest of the game oh oh this I can get on board with
12:13what am I gonna do for the next four hours as the siblings sit tight for their evening departure
12:23oh wow this is amazing isn't the view it goes on for miles what you call them the concrete jungle
12:28still at the checkpoint dylan and jackie and anita and bal unable to set off until tomorrow it is a
12:36killer that we're 18 hours behind I felt like we had zero luck in that last leg it was brutal
12:42panama it was like the tax man in the end who's budgeted well enough to be able to navigate the
12:50last leg it is difficult to judge if we have enough money but everyone's in it now aren't they everyone
12:56is in it with their eye on the prize even when we've been in the trickiest of situations somehow
13:02we've managed to get out of them every second we'll be focused on getting closer to that finish
13:08line we want to finish first whatever happens i think we should all be really proud of ourselves
13:15if you'd told me in leg one that i'll be still here leg five i wouldn't oblige it's been difficult
13:22there's a huge gap of a day with the other two teams that we shouldn't lose faith but we won one
13:29it was amazing we won one anything can happen best of luck yep good luck to you we've got a roller
13:35skates on tomorrow it's all downhill as darkness falls over medellin katana gracias two teams make
13:46their escape on long distance overnight buses driver don't stop at all they're just putting the bags on
13:54of people that are getting out last first and then hopefully they'll shout at barranquilla
14:00santa marta santa marta this bus goes to santa marta where we wanted to go from
14:08barranquilla that is so silly we didn't even ask about santa marta we can ask the bus driver and see
14:15if we can just try and stay on roman and harley moon spot an opportunity to save crucial time
14:22avoiding a change in barranquilla would take them 100 kilometers further along the coastline on the
14:27same bus senior the letter is para barranquilla it's possible pagar para santa marta and barranquilla
14:37miramos it's not possible barranquilla compra l'autre ticket to santa barpa so we need to go to
14:43ticket office at barranquilla yeah so we've got to get off the bus go into the office buy a ticket get
14:49back on the bus before it leaves right we really have tried to win a leg and we've come up short
14:58every single time so i just want to keep moving because this is our last chance
15:02where's arabia 4 15 a.m got it anita and dad bal are starting their big push to get back in the
15:18running my instinct is inland that looks the director's route doesn't it look a moranger that's
15:25a big city they'll have direct connections and that's how we can catch up yeah hopefully we can get
15:30there today and then we move up to uribe that would be the dream we're away definitely feeling
15:38the pressure this morning there are two teams already in front of us with an 18-hour advantage
15:43oh there's a taxi lock excellent but there's been some legs where the wind is beneath us
15:49i'm hoping this is going to be one of those unlike the two teams already en route to the coast
15:55anita and bal are hoping to travel a shorter overall distance by plotting a course east to the
16:02transport hub of bucaramanga before heading north to uribea we're on the moon i'm happy
16:10winning the race would be amazing what an achievement and to have done it with my dad that would be
16:16it let's go final push dad we're going to win because we're strong we're fit we're determined
16:23and we're yorkshire yep
16:29hola dos tickets para bucaramanga there's a eight o'clock one that would be perfect for us
16:37yeah we got them on it okay perfect we're on the next bus we're only up dad we're only up
16:44as anita and bal capitalise on their early start with a quick getaway from medellin
16:51last night someone had their cat just running around the bus roman and harley moon and molly
16:57and tyler have been progressing neck and neck through the night with the siblings now just aging ahead
17:03this is a long bus we're still not even there yet
17:07oh no oh my god is it bad
17:17oh that's really made me really sad what tell me dylan and jackie have decided to leave the race oh no
17:25they wish you all luck reaching the finish line and now just three teams will compete in the final leg
17:31well that's really sad news man oh they were so close to finishing it you cannot underestimate
17:39just how difficult this race is maybe they did what's right for them yeah
17:45that's good well that's divine oh god how are you feeling it's tough i mean the budget we've
18:00counted it so many times but we can probably survive a day and a half yeah mexico sort of killed us to
18:06start with and then we're chasing all the time this is a sad news day banker dylan is is closing down
18:15i think and uh we're bankrupt but it's not just the money this race is so tough i also am very tired
18:28we've tried our hardest and we just want to bow out on our own terms with our heads held high
18:34we gave our all we should take that as a positive for us both that's it the race has made me realize
18:43that i should have more faith in myself and to embrace life i've seen you go on another level of
18:50strength i feel like a new woman and um yeah it's taken me nearly 60 years to feel like this
18:59but i'm a better person for the whole experience seeing you be strong makes me strong as well
19:07my mom has helped me grow she's got that best version of dylan out of me hopefully i can continue
19:15to be a better dylan this journey has been amazing it's shown me that there's like a whole world out
19:27there and i'll always keep this with me we have so many memories seeing all the wildlife and also
19:36getting to know people in other countries as well
19:38it's been special sharing it with dylan meant the world to me yeah and me too and our family
19:47going to be in the state of shock yeah yeah they expect us to get this far i'm over the moon that
19:53dylan has developed in this five weeks incredibly and um i feel quite emotional about it but i'm really
20:04proud of him and excited for him and just love him to bits we've done things we would never ever
20:12dream of doing it was incredible wasn't it yeah
20:20with just three teams left racing to the finish line we're nearly at the coast which is pretty good
20:27going roman and harley moon are arriving in the city of barranquilla this could be make a break of
20:35the leg because we could build some serious hours if we can get to santa marta on this bus it could
20:41really change our position okay that's gonna be a dash with just a 15 minute set down go go go go go
20:51failure to secure tickets means the siblings must face the uncertainty of the next departure
20:55car holly you go stay okay my job is guarding the bus to make sure the driver doesn't leave
21:10there's a little chat keeping busy over there
21:1560 60.
21:17driver's coming back
21:18come on roman this is so tense my heart is racing come on let's get there i mean if the bus needs
21:29to leave i'm actually coming helpless what there's none left no tickets left the bus is empty they said
21:38none left because i bombed it now don't pinch me don't pinch me let's go
21:53that's a relief yeah well done that's a relief we've moved so far yeah this final egg is the first
21:59time i felt like okay no we we can do this
22:03the plan now to continue their hop up the caribbean coast using santa marta as a springboard to reach
22:11palomino one town closer to the finish line all before nightfall
22:15i'm not moving fast at all this isn't what we wanted you know it's bad traffic when people start
22:29getting out can you see how far ahead it is i think it's bad we're stuck in this trap for about 50
22:37minutes now we moved about 100 meters we could be here for hours and hours and hours
22:44it's the little things that will kill you in this race this could be the loss gutted
23:01it's beautiful this is really cool on their journey along the coast molly and tyler have arrived in the
23:08port city of cartagena where they plan to enjoy a final taste of the caribbean
23:14before an onward connection tomorrow morning it's a bit more of us than that yeah that's a cool
23:22once an export hub for gold and emeralds during the colonial era the city was a constant target
23:28for pirates and privateers including sir francis drake who looted it in 1586
23:34today old and new sits side by side with towering skyscrapers rising above colorful architecture
23:46here the streets echo with the country's rich musical traditions that have earned colombia the name
23:52the land of a thousand rhythms
24:02the walls of a thousand mountains so
24:13come on this is amazing what dance is that champeta yeah champeta listen rhythm is cartagena can you teach
24:20Just, man.
24:21Yes.
24:22Quarts.
24:23I'm going to start from here.
24:24Separate the legs a little.
24:26Circular.
24:27The head, circular.
24:28Whoa, a slow one.
24:30Yeah.
24:34Molly's used to winding her hips like that.
24:35I don't wind my hips like that.
24:36Hey.
24:39When I first met Moe on Strictly Come Dancing,
24:41I just thought, wow.
24:44She's like this light that when she just walks into the room,
24:46it was like, you're pretty incredible.
24:49One, two, three, four.
24:51Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da.
24:54Our first date was during the tour on Strictly.
24:59One, two, three, eight.
25:01We were all staying in the same hotel,
25:04and we sneaked out, had jerk chicken wings and a slushie.
25:09And then we were too scared to walk hand in hand back
25:11to the hotel in case a pap called us.
25:14I'm sweating.
25:15It's been a long time since Strictly Come Dancing.
25:17We first told each other we loved each other on that tour.
25:22Come on.
25:23I knew pretty soon.
25:25I was gassed.
25:26My whole body just needed to say it.
25:29Oh, that's so sweet.
25:30Look, I feel limbered up.
25:32OK, ready?
25:33Yeah.
25:33The music?
25:33OK.
25:36Yay!
25:38Three, four, five, six, seven, vamos!
25:44That was just the perfect lift to get through this spinal leg.
25:53This has been the best.
25:55What is this?
25:56What's this one?
25:56Hey!
25:58I fell in love with moles watching her dance.
26:01I fell in love all over again watching that.
26:03I swear to God.
26:03Oh my days.
26:08That's really nice.
26:18This is the best night in Columbia.
26:24I'm actually sad for the race to come to an end.
26:27We've just learned so much.
26:29I'm going to chill out more.
26:30Mm-hmm.
26:31And realise that it's OK if you're not in control.
26:33Yeah.
26:34You've shown that you can deal with that.
26:37That really means a lot.
26:41The race is, without that, one of the toughest things
26:44that I've ever done in my whole entire life.
26:47But it has proved to us how much of a team we are.
26:50And as if I thought I couldn't be any more close to her,
26:53this happened.
26:56I was worried we'd find this situation, like, so high pressure
27:01that it would put pressure on us as a relationship.
27:04I knew that we're in love and that I love you,
27:07but this has just taken it up so much more.
27:13I've felt the most amount of love over these few weeks.
27:20I'm so glad we did this.
27:22If we don't win, rematch.
27:30It's so annoying that we arrived here so much later.
27:33You've got two choices.
27:34Moan about it, we get over it.
27:35All right.
27:36Moan about it, it is.
27:38Following a two-hour traffic jam, Roman and Hartley Moon
27:41have finally reached the small beach town of Palomino.
27:46Muchas gracias.
27:47Thank you, ma'am.
27:48Could I ask you, tomorrow, do you know if there's a bus
27:53that goes directly to Euribia?
27:55No.
27:56You need to make a transfer in Rio Hacho.
27:58But the buses are here.
27:59Yeah.
28:00If they don't want to stop, they don't stop.
28:01OK.
28:02It might be tough getting out of here.
28:07Having made a leap of almost 400 kilometers
28:09via inland highways, Anita and Bal are in the well-connected
28:13city of Bucaramanga.
28:16Look at this.
28:17One of your favorite things in the whole wide world, a hot dog.
28:20How are you feeling about tomorrow?
28:22Very good.
28:23We've traveled some distance and that's the name of the game.
28:27When we started early morning, we're 18 hours behind.
28:31But it's worked out really well, so we've got a good chance to catch up.
28:36The race is really tough.
28:38Are you still smiling?
28:39Yeah, because I'm enjoying it all.
28:41I'm trying new things.
28:42I mean, you've always been adventurous.
28:44But never had the opportunity.
28:46But I think what you've achieved is amazing.
28:49He's so brave to come and do this, because it's really hard.
28:53Not just physically, but mentally.
28:55I'm really proud of him.
28:56And I know he'd hate me saying this, but I really am.
29:00I have to keep reminding myself that you're 68.
29:02Don't remind me.
29:04I think you're incredible, Dad.
29:07The race, it's been really good for me because I've learned a lot about myself.
29:13I will now really consider retiring, do a bit more traveling and enjoy myself.
29:19Good day.
29:20Get our stuff packed.
29:21Packed.
29:22And tomorrow we move.
29:35How dreamy.
29:36A little beach walk.
29:42Palomino.
29:45Sandwiched between the Caribbean Sea and the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta Mountains.
29:52Standing at more than 5,700 meters, it's the world's highest coastal mountain range.
29:58Home to four indigenous groups who believe it is the heart of the world.
30:02And that preserving its ecosystem is essential for Earth's wellbeing.
30:07Oh, I can see some dogs.
30:08Hello.
30:09Hello.
30:10Hello, everybody.
30:11Hello.
30:12Hello.
30:13Hello, everybody.
30:14Hola.
30:15Hola.
30:16Are they all with you?
30:17Hey, from the shelter.
30:18And you walk them?
30:19Yeah.
30:20In my life.
30:21Every day walk in the beach.
30:22No.
30:23With the door.
30:24That's beautiful here.
30:25Really beautiful.
30:26Look.
30:27Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta.
30:28Oh, wow.
30:29It looks like someone's put a painting in the middle of paradise.
30:36Hey, doggies.
30:37Are you having a nice drink?
30:39I cannot believe this whole amazing experience is trying to an end.
30:51It's done the thing that I wanted, which is change our relationship.
30:54Regardless of race position, we'll always have some incredible moments that we'll have forever.
31:00When I think back on Roman and I in London, we felt like we were quite different people
31:06and we didn't always see eye to eye.
31:09This one doesn't like the water.
31:10This one doesn't like the water at all.
31:12He's not sure.
31:14I'm hoping me and Roman will keep hanging out and book some trips together again
31:19because I've loved spending time with him.
31:24We have so many memories together.
31:26All of those memories, they've always involved mum and dad.
31:28What's great is that this is ours.
31:30Yeah.
31:31Spending this amount of time with Harley has been incredible.
31:36And I think being ourselves to one another has been fantastic.
31:41When did you get so special?
31:43When? I don't know.
31:45Before we came out here, Harley said to mum, I know Ro loves me, but I don't think he likes me.
31:50Which is really sad.
31:52But I think now she does know.
31:55She knows.
31:57Because it's more than siblings now.
32:00It's, you know, back to being best mates.
32:03Can you show us the way?
32:05Are you going to win the race with us?
32:07New team mate.
32:08We need to find a buff and get moving.
32:11Yep.
32:12After spending the night in Cartagena, Molly and Tyler are aiming to leave on an all-day bus,
32:29departing from the main terminal more than 15 kilometres away.
32:33The bus is at nine.
32:35What's the time now?
32:36Eight.
32:37Oh, shit.
32:38Let's go.
32:39There's taxis over there.
32:42Are you proper mad at me?
32:46A little bit, yeah.
32:47Okay.
32:48Today, we need to make big ground.
32:51We're going to try and push to get to Rio Haka.
32:54Making the bus to Rio Hacha would put the couple within striking distance of Uribia.
32:59Come on.
33:02It's 8.55.
33:03We have five minutes to catch the 9am bus.
33:06Um.
33:07Bapiro.
33:08Bapiro.
33:09Bapiro.
33:10Why is he stopping there?
33:12Where's everyone going on this 171?
33:14This traffic's killing me, right?
33:17But, we are within touching distance of the bus station.
33:20Oh, yeah.
33:21Go, go, go, go, go.
33:22Right.
33:23There it is!
33:24Run!
33:25There it is! Run!
33:27Keep going!
33:29Come on, quick!
33:35We made it. We're still on track.
33:39Next time we go backpacking, we take two alarm clocks.
33:43Such a nugget.
33:52Passport? Money? Yes.
33:54As the furthest team from Uribia, Anita and Bal are looking to accelerate.
33:59I think this is the tickets, right? Yep.
34:01By making a swift departure from Bukaramanga.
34:05Hola. Necesitamos ir a Uribia.
34:09Vamos hasta Maicao.
34:11Maicao.
34:12Es posible autobus to Maicao ahora?
34:15No tengo parados.
34:17Solo mañana.
34:19It's all fully booked.
34:21Could we get to somewhere else? Anywhere.
34:24Sería más cerca de Santa Marta.
34:26With buses to Maicao fully booked, the route via Santa Marta means taking a detour of more than 150 kilometres on an overnight bus.
34:36Oh, I'm feeling a bit dispirited.
34:42The 9pm bus gets in at 6am.
34:45Oh, I don't know.
34:47Who knows where the other teams are, right?
34:49I only know what we're doing and they could be in all sorts of situations.
34:54With father and daughter at a standstill.
34:58This is it.
35:00We have to get to Rio Acha and then get to Uribia today.
35:04Roman and Harley Moon are making tracks from Palomino.
35:09Oh, my God.
35:11Is that a bus?
35:13Rio Acha?
35:14I don't.
35:15Amazing.
35:16Finally.
35:17Luck is on our side.
35:21It was fate that that bus pulled up at the right time.
35:24I'm so excited right now.
35:27Travelling the same route, Molly and Tyler are in close pursuit of the siblings.
35:34We've covered a lot of ground.
35:36We are only a short jump away from Rio Acha and we still have got money to get a quick taxi transfer to get to Uribia.
35:45We got this.
35:47But unable to get back on the road until night time.
35:51Well, this has had a little fun to the tale, but we're here now, aren't we?
35:55Anita and Bal are waiting it out.
35:58What is that, Dad?
36:00Is that a pool table?
36:01Do you have a game of pool?
36:02Why not?
36:04When was the last time we played pool?
36:06Last time you were at university.
36:08That's a long time ago.
36:09I know.
36:10Dad taught me how to play when I was about 15 years old.
36:13He took me for my first half pint, but people thought it was unusual.
36:17No father takes an Asian door to a pool.
36:20It was unheard of.
36:21It was unheard of.
36:22I always felt there's no difference between a boy and a girl.
36:26I saw you come into the world.
36:28I was the first one that you looked at.
36:31Did it, was I?
36:32Yes, when you were born.
36:34Good shot.
36:36I remember it was a Wednesday, seven minutes till three, I know the time.
36:40In them days, Asians frowned on girls.
36:43And my parents said to me, you don't celebrate for a girl, it's a boy you celebrate for.
36:46I said, no, it's exactly the same for me.
36:49So I went straight to an off-licensed bottle, created champagne, and I celebrated for her.
36:55I feel like you've always championed me.
36:58You were quite strict, but you were also open-minded, you know?
37:02Yeah.
37:03I wanted the experience of life.
37:04When I had to pick what degree to do, my dad, a typical Indian dad, thought I was naturally
37:11going to go off and study law.
37:14Oh, flippin' heck!
37:15She wanted to go into broadcasting, and I said to her, if you want to go broadcasting, go for the best course.
37:22All my life, you have always said, go for it.
37:25Yeah.
37:26However, there was still a lot of pressure.
37:29I just feel like every single woman in our family has been expected to live a certain way.
37:34Not the boys.
37:35Yeah.
37:37Recently, I made a big life change.
37:40It's quite a big deal to have a divorce in my family, certainly.
37:43Divorced women are like pariahs, but my dad threw the rule book out.
37:48He's always had my back.
37:50I appreciate that when I came to you, you were there for me.
37:54You supported me.
37:56All the things you've gone through will stand by you, regardless.
37:59It was hard for her, but I was supportive.
38:02It doesn't matter what society says or what other people think about you, that's irrelevant.
38:07You said you've worked so hard, you deserve to make yourself happy.
38:13Of course.
38:14Even if I make mistakes?
38:15Yes.
38:16Whatever you do, we're 100% behind you.
38:20Yeah.
38:22Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, come on.
38:24None of that.
38:26No, you're...
38:27I don't know where the tears are coming from.
38:33You're the best in the world.
38:35None the best.
38:37When I was at my saddest, my dad made me feel supported, loved.
38:42For the first time, I felt, it's okay.
38:45I'm allowed to...
38:47..have...
38:49..I'm allowed to have a hiccup in my life.
38:51I'm so proud of you.
38:53I don't think I would have got through it if I didn't have my dad.
39:00We want you to live your life happy with everything.
39:02Yeah.
39:03Everything you do.
39:04OK?
39:05Yeah.
39:06Thanks, Todd.
39:07Everything you do.
39:08Yeah.
39:09Yeah.
39:11We're into the race and we're feeling more of a connection.
39:14Yeah.
39:15Yes.
39:16I feel different.
39:17Good.
39:18I feel different.
39:20It's quite wonderful that we're having these conversations.
39:22We've found a bit more tenderness towards each other.
39:25No, I feel good.
39:26OK, good.
39:27But thank you.
39:28I just want to say thank you.
39:29Don't make me tear.
39:32It's really nice to be able to communicate like this with Anita.
39:36Come on.
39:37Let's play the game.
39:38OK.
39:39It's a very good feeling.
39:42Let me thrash you then.
39:43Yeah.
39:45The last couple of years has been really tough.
39:48And what I'm very good at doing is ploughing forward.
39:51And not really giving myself time to think about my own feelings.
39:57The race has been an amazing opportunity.
39:59Not just to spend time with my dad, but to think about actually how I want to live my life going forward now.
40:05Yeah.
40:06Well done, Dad.
40:07You taught me well, though.
40:08Word's out.
40:09I think this will be us, right?
40:10Still out in front and less than 100 kilometres from Uribia.
40:25I think it's at the back of the bus.
40:29Roman and Harley Moon are arriving in Rio Acha with plans to keep pushing onwards into the night.
40:35Taxis.
40:36I see a taxi.
40:37Oh.
40:38Oh.
40:39Oh, no.
40:40Let's make you feel sick when we get these.
40:42Oh, no.
40:43The roads between Rio Acha and Uribia have been deemed unsafe to travel on at night.
40:49Teams may not proceed during the hours of darkness.
40:52It's dark in an hour and Uribia is hours away.
40:59Oh.
41:01Yeah, we won't make it in time.
41:04Oh.
41:05Damn.
41:07OK, let's find the Hotel ASAP and then leave first thing in the morning.
41:12All right.
41:14Just keep breathing.
41:16Gracias.
41:17Gracias.
41:18Just 15 minutes later, Molly and Tyler have also arrived into Rio Acha, closing the gap on the brother and sister.
41:28Teams may not proceed during the hours of darkness.
41:33Considering we're so close, it's just well annoying.
41:37We best find a hotel.
41:39As two teams grind to a halt.
41:41Let's go.
41:42Anita and Bal are set to depart.
41:45Right, we're 33 and 34, Dad.
41:47OK.
41:48Making an overnight leap of 550 kilometres towards the finish line.
41:53The bus gets in at 6am and then tomorrow we fly.
41:56That's it.
41:57We just move as fast as we can.
41:59We are going to finish it in style, me and Dad.
42:05Now that is the last dinner.
42:07Stock in Rio Acha, Roman and Harley Moon.
42:11I think if we get to bed early enough tonight and in the morning, use that last bit of determination and pray that we've done a good run on this leg.
42:21We've done the best we can.
42:24I'm feeling quite nervous for tomorrow because I still have a small hope in the back of my mind that we might get there first.
42:33I'm just glad that we couldn't be having dinner in Euribia tonight.
42:38Molly Tyler and me and Ro left Checkpoint at quite a similar time, so it's so hard to call.
42:46Well done.
42:48Whatever happens, well done.
42:49I don't think we can win.
42:52I haven't said that directly to Harley, but I don't think we can win.
42:57Let's get some sleep.
42:59The traffic jam yesterday was the first punch and not being able to get to Euribia tonight was the knockout blow.
43:10Just one street away.
43:12Wow.
43:13The memes.
43:16This is race day five.
43:17For the first time, our competitive spark has been ignited.
43:21The hunt for first place is on.
43:23Some people are taking it more serious than others.
43:30I think both of the other teams are actually really close.
43:36Molly looks hot in a cowgirl hat.
43:40Tomorrow, as soon as the sun rises,
43:43we're going to be in that taxi and we're going to be on our way.
43:48Reading these back makes you realise how far we've actually come.
43:52Yeah.
43:54We've put ourselves through so much, we have to make it count.
43:57Yes, Bob.
43:58Go.
43:59Taxi.
44:00Para Euribia.
44:01Euribia.
44:02Euribia.
44:03Euribia.
44:04Muchas gracias.
44:05This looks like the fastest car in Colombia.
44:06Okay.
44:07Rapido.
44:08Yeah, boy.
44:09Señor, quanto tiempo arribe a Euribia?
44:10Ah, pero te quieren ir por Euribia.
44:11Ah, pero te quieren ir por Euribia.
44:12Sí.
44:13No, no, pero es que yo no voy a Euribia.
44:15Yo hago ese taxi aquí,
44:16porque en el taxi que va a Euribia,
44:19por Euribia.
44:20Euribia?
44:21Muchas gracias.
44:23This looks like the fastest car in Colombia.
44:24Okay.
44:26Rapido.
44:27Yeah, boy.
44:28Señor, quanto tiempo arribe a Euribia?
44:33Ah, pero te quieren ir por Euribia?
44:35Sí.
44:36Euribia.
44:37Ah, no, pero es que yo no voy a Euribia.
44:40I got a taxi here, urbana, taxi urbano.
44:46What?
44:50We've got to get out.
44:51Get money ready, Ray.
44:52Yeah, it's ready.
44:53Come on, guys.
44:55Oribia, see?
44:56Right, grab my bag.
44:59What is going on?
45:00Oh, no.
45:01It's Roman, honestly.
45:02Go, go, go, rapido, rapido.
45:06We're going in this car now.
45:07Put it in a whip to the urbana, we'll give you loads of money.
45:15Yeah, all right.
45:16Just jump in that car, go.
45:18Go, go, go.
45:20Rapido, rapido, rapido.
45:23Yes, we can overtape them.
45:26I think they're in the car in front.
45:28We just need to keep up this momentum.
45:30This is exciting.
45:31I feel like I'm in a car chase.
45:33My heart's pounding.
45:34I can now totally see why we couldn't do this journey at night.
45:37Yeah, too dangerous.
45:39More pothole than road, animals.
45:42Where do you think the others are?
45:43So hard to know.
45:45Is that Anita and Bal on the back?
45:48As the two front runners set off for Uribia,
45:51Anita and Bal are arriving into Santa Marta,
45:55hoping for a quick connection.
45:57Here we go, loads of buses.
46:00Hola, señorita. Necesitamos ir a Rio Hacha.
46:03Muy rápido.
46:04¿Qué hora sale?
46:06Cinco minutos.
46:06Cinco minutos.
46:08It leaves in five minutes.
46:09All right.
46:10Let's keep moving.
46:11But I personally think we'll still have a chance.
46:13Dad's wonderful optimism.
46:24Excited.
46:25I'm not excited.
46:27I'm nervous.
46:28Uribia.
46:29Now just 68 kilometres stands between the teams
46:33and the chance of victory.
46:35Let's go, Mars.
46:39Okay.
46:40On foot, head through Uribia via Sombrero Plaza,
46:43cross the railway tracks,
46:45and fly the 4x4 to Cabo de la Vela.
46:49Sombrero Plaza.
46:50Oh, my God, it is.
46:55Oh, my God, it is.
46:55It's a foot race.
46:57Ask the man on the bike.
46:58Go, go.
47:00Gracias.
47:01Sombrero Plaza.
47:02Sombrero Plaza.
47:04Yeah.
47:04Gracias.
47:05I don't know if this is the right way.
47:14Head through Uribia via Sombrero Plaza,
47:17cross the railway track,
47:18and find a 4x4.
47:19All right, go.
47:21Sombrero Plaza.
47:23This is it.
47:24Keep going, babe.
47:25You're good.
47:26Come on, huh?
47:28Let's go, babe.
47:29Railway?
47:30This way, Mars.
47:32We need a 4x4.
47:32Senor, the railway tracks.
47:36The railway tracks.
47:36Railway.
47:38Dravo.
47:39Cabo de la Vela.
47:40Yeah, I brought it.
47:41I'm going to go.
47:42Mars, quick, quick, quick.
47:43Where are we going?
47:45We need a ride.
47:46Can we try one of these?
47:49Nothing is a 4x4.
47:51Holy, holy.
47:52There's a 4x4 down there.
47:53Go, go, go, go.
47:54Gracias.
47:55Senor, Cabo de la Vela.
47:58Mas rápido, si?
47:59Mas rápido, mas rápido.
48:00Let's go, let's go.
48:01That's not pretty.
48:02No, no, no, we're the race.
48:04What's wrong?
48:04What are they doing?
48:06Petra.
48:07Oh, my God, you can't make it out.
48:08Oh, dear.
48:09Do you see how much?
48:10Mike?
48:10Well, if you get us there first, we're going to name our baby after you.
48:13Bahamas, bahamas, bahamas, bahamas.
48:15See, see, see.
48:16Oh, we're not that far behind.
48:18Is that a 4x4?
48:20Yeah.
48:21They're going to overtake, isn't it?
48:22Yeah.
48:23Is that there?
48:24Is that there?
48:25Is that there?
48:25See, bahamas, bahamas, bahamas.
48:27Oh, no.
48:29Good.
48:30Is that there?
48:31Yes.
48:31This is crazy.
48:33I can't believe it.
48:35I can't believe any of it.
48:37It's not over yet.
48:39Desert.
48:39Desert coming.
48:41Yeah.
48:41Oh, my God.
48:52We're in a serious open desert.
48:53This is mad.
48:57We're driving to the end of the world.
49:03We're in the middle of nowhere.
49:07Nothing.
49:08Looks like it's just us, Roman and Harley in the desert.
49:13That's so scary.
49:15I've never seen anything like it.
49:19Peninsula de la Guajira.
49:21The most northerly point in Colombia.
49:23We're blistering desert winds meet the spray of the Caribbean Sea.
49:29From this isolated outpost of Cabo de la Vela, teams face a final five-kilometer push, navigating the rocky headland to reach its peak, where the finish awaits.
49:42Does this fit?
49:51Get out of the car.
49:54Continue on foot into the village, cut through.
49:56Praga de la Guajira.
49:58Take a boat, and then proceed beyond the lighthouse.
50:03Praga de la Guajira.
50:05Si, si.
50:07Follow them.
50:08Yeah.
50:11Here's the bags.
50:12Harley.
50:13Praga de la Guajira.
50:14Keep your eyes peeled.
50:17Senor, donde Praga de la Guajira?
50:22What?
50:22Mistake.
50:23Is it this, babe?
50:25What's it called?
50:26Bro, go, dog.
50:28This is it.
50:28Go.
50:29Oh, we got out of here.
50:30Shit.
50:31Run, run, Ro.
50:32Run, Natasha, can't, Ro.
50:35Oh, yeah.
50:40Harley, we're here.
50:41We're here.
50:43Boats.
50:43Get to the boats, Monks.
50:44This is so hard.
50:46Come on, Harley.
50:47Come on, Har.
50:49That's good, babe.
50:50Lighthouse.
50:51Well, it's quick, quick, quick.
50:52I believe in you.
50:53Get the boat.
50:55Enjoy.
50:56Boat, boat, boat.
50:57Vamos, vamos.
50:58Vamos.
50:59Señor, vamos, vamos, vamos.
51:00Go, go, go, go.
51:00Vamos, vamos, rápido, rápido.
51:04Quickly, quickly, quickly, quickly.
51:07Oh, no.
51:07That boat's not working.
51:09Bro.
51:11Más rápido, más rápido.
51:14I might as well swim.
51:16Is it broken?
51:18It looked like the engine was at the start thing.
51:22There we go.
51:23We're back on.
51:24Más rápido, más rápido.
51:26Más rápido.
51:28All right, you pass up.
51:30Pass up.
51:31Más rápido.
51:31Más rápido.
51:33We're catching them up.
51:34All right.
51:35Anything can happen, baby.
51:37They're behind us.
51:38So nervous.
51:40We're gaining on them.
51:42We're right on their tail, sir.
51:43Proceed on foot to the finish line.
51:49So we've got a rub.
51:51Come on.
51:51Where's that boat?
51:53What's around that corner?
51:56The finish line.
51:59Oh, my God.
52:00I can see it.
52:03That's a hill and a half, babe.
52:04This is it.
52:08Oh, my God.
52:09Well, it's the one thing we're good at.
52:11Hills.
52:12Raleigh's on fumes.
52:13We can do it if we push.
52:15Last bit of running, all right?
52:16Yeah.
52:16That's all I need from it.
52:19Sprint against Wally, who's 10 years younger than me.
52:22You've got it.
52:23Just put it in the back of the net.
52:24It's 90th finish.
52:25It's a penalty.
52:26It's a Champions League final.
52:28Put it in the back of the net.
52:29All right.
52:32Breeze it.
52:33Okay, right.
52:34Oh, my God.
52:34They're getting really close.
52:39My legs are, like, lead.
52:40Harley, up here.
52:44Go, go, go, go.
52:45We're super close.
52:46Come on.
52:47Ah.
52:48This is so hard.
52:50Come on.
52:51I feel sick.
52:52It's up here, Moss.
52:54That's it.
52:54Keep going.
52:56Keep going.
52:56Keep going.
52:57I'm not sure we can do that.
52:59I'm not sure we can do that.
53:01I'm struggling.
53:12Come on, Ha.
53:13Keep going.
53:14Don't stop.
53:15They're right there.
53:22I'm too much.
53:25Come on, Ha.
53:26Help me.
53:26Come on.
53:26Come on, Ha.
53:27You've got it.
53:28Come on.
53:28So close.
53:48Come on.
53:49Come on.
53:50Seven.
53:51Seven.
53:51Nine.
53:52Seven.
53:53Seven.
53:54Eight.
53:55Nine.
53:56One.
53:57Oh, they've got it now.
53:58They made it.
54:03Ready?
54:04I'm in.
54:06Congratulations.
54:07You have reached the finish line.
54:09Please sign in over leave to find out if you're bothered.
54:13Ah!
54:20We did it.
54:21I can't believe it.
54:22I don't understand that we've come first.
54:24I know.
54:25Let's write our names before they get it.
54:27To make sure it's true.
54:30I'm so overwhelmed.
54:31I don't know whether to be sick, to celebrate,
54:34feel in shock.
54:36That was the most adrenaline, most emotion that I've had ever.
54:40I could hear the rocks crumbling behind me
54:44where they were so close.
54:46I've never run like that in my whole life.
54:49We come second, come second.
54:50You said we were saving first for that last one.
54:53And you were right.
54:55I'm proud of you.
54:56I'm proud of us.
54:57I think they're a mixture of happy tears, just absolute shock.
55:01Oh, man.
55:02And pride.
55:03Well done, team.
55:04Well done.
55:05So hard.
55:06You okay?
55:07The fact that we were here, like 20 metres away.
55:08Yeah.
55:09Right here.
55:10And if it weren't for a broken engine, it would be first on that list.
55:12So I'm not worried.
55:13That's life, isn't it?
55:14Yeah.
55:15Yeah.
55:16Oh, my gosh.
55:17Two minutes.
55:18Oh, I'm so sorry.
55:19Don't be sorry.
55:20You guys deserved it.
55:21I'm so sorry.
55:22You guys deserved it.
55:23Oh, my gosh.
55:24Oh, my gosh.
55:25Oh, my gosh.
55:26Oh, my gosh.
55:27Two minutes.
55:28I'm so sorry.
55:29Don't be sorry.
55:30You guys deserved it.
55:34Right.
55:35Right, we're scrambling, Dad.
55:36This is what Yorkshire's prepared us for.
55:37Oh, my gosh, my gosh.
55:38Yeah, I'm right in.
55:39And if it weren't for a broken engine, it'll be first on that list.
55:40So I'm not worried.
55:41That's life, isn't it?
55:42Yeah.
55:43Oh, my gosh.
55:45Two minutes.
55:46No, I'm so sorry.
55:47Don't be sorry.
55:48You guys deserved it.
55:51.
55:55.
56:00Right, we're scrambling, Dad.
56:01Come on.
56:02This is what Yorkshire's prepared us for.
56:06Yes, come on, we can see it!
56:09Final push.
56:11Let's go, go, go.
56:12You ready?
56:14Three, two, one.
56:16Yes!
56:18I've only got no breath left.
56:21Nice job.
56:22We'll hold it together.
56:23You ready?
56:26Oh!
56:27Oh!
56:28They're still amazing!
56:30Dad, same day.
56:31Yeah.
56:34We were 18 hours behind.
56:35And now there's only six hours between us.
56:37So that's 12 hours we caught.
56:39Yeah.
56:40So we're delighted.
56:41We're really, really good.
56:43That's massive.
56:44You smashed it.
56:45We smashed it.
56:48We kept going.
56:49We did keep going.
56:50We didn't want to stop.
56:51We are very, very, very proud of ourselves.
56:53Exactly.
56:54Well done you, Dad.
56:56Without you, we wouldn't have done it.
56:58You are amazing, Dad, you know that.
57:01You're a blooming hero.
57:02You're a blooming hero.
57:10Hello, gang!
57:11Yay!
57:12Yay!
57:14Yay!
57:15Nice to see you.
57:17Oh, well done.
57:18Well done.
57:19Congratulations.
57:20Congratulations.
57:21Yes!
57:22We did it.
57:23Can you believe it?
57:24We did it!
57:25Yeah!
57:26Every moment we've had throughout the race, we've enjoyed to the fullest.
57:36Literally throwing ourselves at the deep end with everything.
57:40Yay!
57:41I can't explain how proud I'm at us.
57:44It's just been the most special thing we could have ever wanted to do.
57:49It's been the best experience.
57:52And to get to do it with Tartt has been amazing.
57:55For me, I will never forget this time that I had with my dad.
57:59There is nothing more precious.
58:01This has been one of the most magnificent, but also the hardest things we've ever done.
58:06I will never forget this.
58:08Every bus ride, every experience, it's magical.
58:12You said you wanted an adventure in life.
58:14Well, you gave me adventure.
58:15You don't give me any more, though.
58:17Yay!
58:19Woo!
58:21What a journey.
58:22Yes, well done.
58:23Congratulations, everyone.
58:24Well done, everyone.
58:25Brilliant.
58:26What a joy.
58:27We will always have this.
58:28And a cheers to our winners, Roman and Harley.
58:32Cheers!
58:34We've been a really good team, right?
58:35Yeah, been a really good team.
58:36Yes!
58:38I'm so proud of what we've achieved.
58:41Making our relationship even better, creating a strong bond.
58:45During this race, I really feel like I've got my big sister back.
58:50To do all of that and come out on top is incredible.
58:55To racing across the world!
58:57Cheers!
58:59We've bloody won it.
59:01What?
59:03How the hell are we getting back?
59:05What are we getting back?
