00:00:04Oh, my God.
00:00:39Oh
00:00:40My god
00:01:10Palermo where tourists traffic and tradition jostle for space under the Sicilian Sun
00:01:21Swinging between chaos and beauty this Italian city has been conquered more times than any other in Europe
00:01:30Today five teams are setting out to attain a victory of their own
00:01:34That's a view and a half that you know screensaver vibes
00:01:38Descending to the baroque church of San Giuseppe de Teatini
00:01:47Best friends Joe and Kush
00:01:50Looks like a video game
00:01:51Those look like San Andreas
00:01:53I think scholars are the perfect people to travel
00:01:57We're not shy to like say hello to someone on the street
00:02:01You always say
00:02:02Oh babe
00:02:04See you right there love
00:02:05You have a proper little like
00:02:07There's a little charm about the Scouse or anything
00:02:09I want to swim in the sea, look how pretty it is
00:02:11Oh lad
00:02:11On the race we're definitely going to use our Scouse charm to our best ability
00:02:17The timing of the race is like so perfect because we want one more side
00:02:21Because we're going to come back with so much independence afterwards bro
00:02:25Character build
00:02:26Before we go into the adult world
00:02:28The only thing the other contestants will have over us is experience
00:02:34Winning is our priority
00:02:36However I'm going to be stressed to the max
00:02:40Which is good because I don't stress a lot
00:02:43Like I should be
00:02:45I was packing my bags until like half twelve last night
00:02:48Like literally last last minute
00:02:50Ooh nice
00:02:51Chaos
00:02:52I think it's chaos
00:02:53Yeah
00:02:55Also making their way
00:02:57Look at the head
00:02:58Oh my god
00:02:58That's almost as big as yours
00:03:00Wow
00:03:01Katie and her older brother Harrison
00:03:04You see this pace we're walking up
00:03:05Yeah
00:03:06We're going to need to be quicker than this
00:03:08Harrison loves to plan
00:03:09He thrives off planning
00:03:11Like I think it gives him a kick
00:03:13I'm a lot more laid back
00:03:15We can't just go oh we'll go here and then we'll see what happens
00:03:18We could do that actually
00:03:19We could do that but we're not
00:03:20That is a possibility
00:03:21We could
00:03:22We could
00:03:22Ooh
00:03:24My gosh look at the mountain
00:03:26You've got to have some sort of planning place to reach your final destination
00:03:29You're not just going to waltz and end up there
00:03:31We might
00:03:32Right okay
00:03:33Well there you go
00:03:34That's why it's
00:03:35That's why it might work and it might not work
00:03:38That's so cute
00:03:39Oh look at the little trinkets
00:03:41Yeah no we're not doing any of this
00:03:43We're not racing
00:03:44I feel like we need these to kick start morale
00:03:48We've always lived at home together and we do everything together
00:03:52Pubs
00:03:52Football
00:03:53Going for a dance
00:03:54Going for a sing
00:03:55We love going for a sing
00:03:57Yeah
00:03:58Oh wow look at that
00:03:59Oh yeah
00:04:00Wow
00:04:01Throughout our whole lives we've always been there for each other
00:04:05We've lived in 14 different homes which is quite tough
00:04:09But we've always been the one constant in each other's lives I say
00:04:13I'm yet to see a custard cream
00:04:15One thing
00:04:16Who needs a custard cream when you have cannolis?
00:04:19Yeah not custard cream though
00:04:23Buongiorno
00:04:38Buongiorno
00:04:39Only with a GPS tracker and a world map
00:04:42Am I?
00:04:43Um
00:04:43Yeah that's for you as well
00:04:46Arrivederci
00:04:47Arrivederci
00:04:47Thank you
00:04:48Do I need to set them off you as well?
00:04:50Yeah you probably do
00:04:53Oh look at this
00:04:54You know it's all tectonic plates
00:04:56So this thing has all been crushed together and pushed up
00:04:58I think that's how the island was formed
00:05:00And this is where Kim Kardashian got married
00:05:05Cruising towards the starting line
00:05:07It might bore you being a geography teacher just shut me up okay?
00:05:10Oh yeah
00:05:12Andrew and his eldest daughter Molly
00:05:14I'd be very good if I have to go to a place a second time
00:05:17I'm very good at remembering where to go
00:05:20So what do you want to do? Race wrong word twice?
00:05:22My problem twice! Can we?
00:05:25We've got the port area so we must be coming in the land
00:05:29We're from a small town in County Derry
00:05:31Well everybody knows each other
00:05:33Absolutely everybody knows each other
00:05:34My daddy teaches in the only school in our town
00:05:37It's always
00:05:38Oh you're Mr. Clifford's daughter
00:05:39I'll be Clifford's daughter for the rest of my life
00:05:42Yeah absolutely
00:05:42I hope my love of timetables and bus timetables
00:05:46You are so regimented
00:05:48Oh my goodness this could be a problem
00:05:50Molly understands how I operate
00:05:52And understands I have a bit of a control freak
00:05:55I understand her
00:05:56Sometimes daddy's a bit like his way or the highway
00:05:58So like I'm a junior doctor
00:06:00I'm able to give out antibiotics in a hospital
00:06:02But like I'm not allowed to promote grass
00:06:04Like I'm still a child in his eyes
00:06:06You are still a child
00:06:08Buongiorno!
00:06:08Buongiorno!
00:06:09This is for you
00:06:10Thank you very much
00:06:12Thank you very much
00:06:26You know when you're about to sit your final exam
00:06:28Yeah
00:06:29And you feel like kind of butterflies in your stomach
00:06:33I feel like this is the biggest exam of our life
00:06:35Do you feel it?
00:06:36Yeah but I feel like you've prepped quite a bit
00:06:38Like you've been revising for a while
00:06:39I've done an overnight job
00:06:41Our family, everyone is quite conservative
00:06:44Life is predetermined
00:06:46Like we finished university, we both have stable jobs
00:06:49The family's like
00:06:50Right now you need to find a husband
00:06:52Even though you've been told not to talk to guys for 25 years of your life
00:06:55Like go find someone
00:06:56Oh wow
00:06:58Oh that's beautiful
00:07:01Now we just wanna scratch this itch we've had for the last five years
00:07:06We wanna just see the world and explore
00:07:08Shall we say a prayer?
00:07:10Being in the race, everything's a bit unpredictable
00:07:12And you don't know what's gonna get thrown at you
00:07:14So it would be good to see how we deal with it
00:07:19What do you pray about?
00:07:20To come first
00:07:22I just ask my ankles not to break
00:07:24The rest of us
00:07:26Hello now
00:07:27I always wanted to come here
00:07:28I was here last October
00:07:29I cannot believe it
00:07:30Well you must have an advantage of everyone else
00:07:32Don't get overexcited Mark
00:07:34Good chance
00:07:35Completing the line up
00:07:36Retired architect Mark
00:07:38And clinical hypnotherapist Margo
00:07:41So Mark and I are
00:07:42We are chalk and cheese
00:07:43He's very systemised
00:07:45And I'm very random and chaotic
00:07:47These bags are heavy aren't they?
00:07:49No
00:07:49Yes they are
00:07:50No
00:07:50Yes they are
00:07:51I don't even feel it
00:07:52If I'm perfectly honest for a lot of years
00:07:54I just thought he was boring
00:07:55This is fantastic isn't it?
00:07:57Oh my god
00:07:58Yes
00:07:58What scares you the most about the race?
00:08:01Margo
00:08:02That's my first form of transport
00:08:04Good morning
00:08:05Buongiorno
00:08:05Buongiorno
00:08:06Buongiorno signori
00:08:07I got married to Margo's sister
00:08:10Who I first met 40 years ago
00:08:12It seems a bit mad going with your in-law
00:08:15And sometimes I do go
00:08:16What am I doing?
00:08:17So do I
00:08:18So do I
00:08:20Oh my god
00:08:21Look at it
00:08:23This is what we might have had
00:08:25If we hadn't had the Reformation Margaret
00:08:26Yeah
00:08:27We've had a very typical in-law relationship
00:08:29For like nearly 40 years
00:08:31In that there has been a little bit of friction
00:08:34But we worked with each other
00:08:35Caring for my sister Julia
00:08:37Before she passed three years ago
00:08:39It was Julia's dying wish
00:08:41That I make friends with Margaret
00:08:43And to build on the friendship
00:08:45Which actually formed
00:08:46Julia and I both caring for her
00:08:50Goodbye
00:08:51Here is the money
00:08:52That's the money
00:08:53Margo can take that
00:08:54Hello
00:08:55Ciao
00:08:56Ciao
00:09:01Equipped with the essentials
00:09:02Alright Molly
00:09:03Are you ready for this?
00:09:04I can't look
00:09:05Time to find out where the race will take them
00:09:07Your final destination is Hatgal
00:09:10I have never ever heard of Hatgal
00:09:12I have never heard of Hatgal
00:09:13Oh what the hell
00:09:16What if we just don't find it?
00:09:17This is the end of our race
00:09:19Thanks for having us guys
00:09:21Hatgal
00:09:21We're going to Mongolia
00:09:23We are going from here to there
00:09:26What the hell?
00:09:29That's a lot of distance
00:09:31The finish line
00:09:34Hatgal
00:09:34On the northern edge of Mongolia
00:09:41To get there
00:09:42Teams will traverse more than 12,000 kilometres
00:09:45Via seven checkpoints
00:09:47At each stop
00:09:49Their next destination is revealed
00:09:52That is crazy, so close
00:09:54Crossing eight countries
00:09:56Each border a change of language and culture
00:09:59Oh my god
00:10:00There's an eagle
00:10:00This is a journey of extremes
00:10:03From sunny tourist trails and bustling bazaars
00:10:07To sub-arctic snowscapes and nomadic worlds
00:10:10Oh my god, you have to see this
00:10:12Good morning
00:10:14They will retrace the Silk Road
00:10:16The trade path forged by centuries of merchants in search of fortune
00:10:21This is an adventure
00:10:24Today, a reward awaits once more
00:10:27What if we made it?
00:10:29Every second comes
00:10:30For the first team across the finish line
00:10:33£20,000
00:10:34Ruby Casey
00:10:36Oh my goodness
00:10:41Travel is going to be really challenging
00:10:43Very challenging
00:10:44To reach the finish line
00:10:46£1,297 each
00:10:49The cost of flying the route
00:10:51That is
00:10:53That's not much
00:10:54A very small amount of money
00:10:56What?
00:10:57What is it?
00:11:00£23.16 each per day
00:11:03That is a tight budget
00:11:05I'll just say two for one in Italian
00:11:06That's doable
00:11:08It's doable
00:11:09It's going to have to budget hard
00:11:13In central Palermo
00:11:15Beneath its 12th century cathedral
00:11:17I'm actually really nervous, I can't lie
00:11:20Same here
00:11:21The start line
00:11:22This is insane
00:11:26Don't lose me, Mark
00:11:27Here we go
00:11:29Oh, God
00:11:29They're looking fit and young
00:11:31Good to meet you, Margot
00:11:32Margot, I'm Joel
00:11:33I come from Liverpool
00:11:33Oh, no way
00:11:34Whereabouts?
00:11:35I'm Osley Hill
00:11:36I'm from Toxniff
00:11:37No way
00:11:37A Scouser's been a Scouser's then
00:11:38Oh, here we go
00:11:40Oh, I can see them
00:11:42I think their backpacks
00:11:43Are definitely smaller than ours
00:11:44Bit warm, isn't it?
00:11:45Just a little bit
00:11:47Ginger, like
00:11:47I'm dying here
00:11:49Hello
00:11:50Oh
00:11:51Hello
00:11:51Hello
00:11:52Hey guys
00:11:54You alright?
00:11:54No, but...
00:11:56Alright
00:11:56Whenever you'll be
00:11:58It's the room for two more
00:12:00Hello
00:12:01Hi
00:12:02What's up?
00:12:02Hiya, how are you?
00:12:03How are you?
00:12:04Will we get this thing started?
00:12:05Yeah
00:12:06It has to start at some time
00:12:07Good luck, everybody
00:12:08Good luck
00:12:09Good luck
00:12:09Good luck
00:12:15We're gonna win
00:12:16I just...
00:12:16I believe it fully
00:12:18Like, we are winning this
00:12:20There's no doubt about it in my mind
00:12:22You've got to give it all to win
00:12:24Every little decision matters
00:12:26I think Harrison will take charge
00:12:28Because he's older
00:12:29But I would actually say I'm more street smart
00:12:33We are in it to win it
00:12:34No dirty tricks
00:12:35Or good, honest energy
00:12:37I'm not frightened of taking risks
00:12:39No?
00:12:40No, I'm not cautious
00:12:40I'm feeling very confident
00:12:42And very determined that we're gonna win
00:12:44We're gonna absolutely graft
00:12:46Put in blood, sweat, and tears
00:12:48I see a journey
00:12:49I see an opportunity
00:12:51To do things that we've never done before
00:13:00Hey, good luck everyone!
00:13:01Good luck!
00:13:01Good luck!
00:13:03Come on!
00:13:05This is it
00:13:07Come on
00:13:08We got this
00:13:10Let's go, let's go
00:13:13Sorry
00:13:13You alright?
00:13:15Yeah
00:13:19Just let me get my breath for a minute
00:13:22Right
00:13:23Let's figure out exactly where we're going
00:13:27First checkpoint
00:13:29Fiscado
00:13:30I have no idea
00:13:32This is exciting
00:13:33Oh!
00:13:34Oh!
00:13:36The first checkpoint
00:13:37Fiscado
00:13:38I know where Fiscado is
00:13:40To the east
00:13:41In the wine dark sea of the Ionian archipelago
00:13:44The Greek village of Fiscado
00:13:47Situated on the northern tip of Cephalonia
00:13:49It was once known as Panormos
00:13:52Sheltered harbour
00:13:54Today, flashy yachts and humble fishing boats
00:13:57Float side by side
00:13:58And visitors enjoy its neighbouring coves
00:14:01Lush forests
00:14:02And the Venetian architecture
00:14:04At its bustling heart
00:14:07We need to find out where Fiscado is
00:14:10Because it's not on the map
00:14:11Do you know what lad?
00:14:13Train station
00:14:13There might be a stop
00:14:14Called Fiscado
00:14:16Checkpoint
00:14:16We are coming
00:14:19A train to Fiscado would be golden buzzer
00:14:23I don't see Fiscado anywhere
00:14:25No I don't know what it is
00:14:26You're not sure?
00:14:28I don't think you can go by train
00:14:29I don't think this place exists
00:14:31It's like Narnia
00:14:35Excusey
00:14:35Do you know where Fiscado is?
00:14:38Oh, it's in Greece
00:14:40Oh!
00:14:41It seems to be on an island
00:14:43Brilliant
00:14:43Thank you
00:14:44It's the top of Cephalonia
00:15:14We're looking for Fiscado
00:15:16Curves around into the right place
00:15:18Traveling by sea will propel teams
00:15:20From the heart of Palermo
00:15:22Straight to mainland Italy
00:15:23Reaching distant Naples on long
00:15:26But often costly ferries
00:15:29Or they could travel by land through Sicily
00:15:32Before a short ferry across the Strait of Messina
00:15:35Into the rugged region of Calabria
00:15:37With its budget friendly travel
00:15:41Once into Puglia
00:15:42The race continues across the Adriatic Sea
00:15:45Towards Fiscado
00:15:48It just looks like southern Italy
00:15:49Is a bit of a longer route
00:15:51Whereas if we took a ferry straight to Naples
00:15:53It would be a bit more direct
00:15:54And then it looks a lot shorter
00:15:55I know
00:15:55But I think when you see boat
00:15:57You think a bit more expensive
00:15:58Whereas this is so off the beaten track
00:16:01Yep, you're for it
00:16:02Yeah? Yeah? Are you happy with that?
00:16:04Yeah
00:16:04We've got a plan
00:16:06Opting to keep on land
00:16:08The cousins are heading east
00:16:09Through Sicily
00:16:11Hoping to avoid pricey transport
00:16:14We're on the west side of the island
00:16:17Working out their first move
00:16:19Katie and Harrison
00:16:20So I think we should go Palermo to Napoli on a boat
00:16:25Yeah, the boat to Napoli could be quite expensive
00:16:27I think we'd have to work
00:16:29Mm-hmm
00:16:29To supplement the race budgets
00:16:31Teams are given a directory of local jobs
00:16:34What's this job?
00:16:35The Grand Cafe
00:16:37Grand Cafe sounds fancy as
00:16:39Ten euros per person per hour
00:16:41It'll pay for accommodation for the night in Napoli
00:16:44Yeah, it would just buy us maybe some quicker transport elsewhere
00:16:48If we had a bit more money as well
00:16:49Yeah
00:16:50I think the race strategies accumulate as much cash we can
00:16:53And obviously spend as little as we can
00:16:55I'm really excited to go to Naples
00:16:57It's one of the homes of football for Italy
00:16:58I'd want to go to Napoli for the football as well
00:17:01I've heard like it's a really good atmosphere
00:17:03We don't have a larger amount of cash to start with
00:17:05But I just really want to complete the full race
00:17:07If we're like first checkpoint here and 20% of our cash down
00:17:10I'm going to be panicking
00:17:11So just to earn money in Naples
00:17:13It's going to make me feel a little bit better
00:17:15Let's go
00:17:16Come on, first leg
00:17:17Do it
00:17:18What?
00:17:19Ten years later with the map
00:17:22Would you like a hand?
00:17:23I don't get it
00:17:25Planning a quick getaway across the Tyrrhenian Sea
00:17:28The siblings opt for the culture and cash that Naples provides
00:17:34Could you tell us where the port is?
00:17:36You follow the street?
00:17:37Follow the street?
00:17:38Yes
00:17:39And you arrive in the port
00:17:40Very
00:17:41It's beautiful
00:17:41It's very, very beautiful
00:17:43Fancy
00:17:45It's a long road that
00:17:47How long is it?
00:17:49Long
00:17:49But walking is a free mode of transport
00:17:51So we shall do it
00:17:53I could do it just like a blindfold
00:17:54So I can't see all these apple spritz
00:17:56I know it's not
00:17:57It's a joke
00:17:58It's not fair
00:17:58It's not fair
00:17:59What's that?
00:18:00One euro for a glass of orange juice
00:18:02The problem is
00:18:03When it's that cheap
00:18:04It feels like you can just spend a euro
00:18:05Yeah
00:18:05But we generally can't just spend a euro
00:18:07I mean, we'll see
00:18:11We could ask people in the queue I guess
00:18:13That's true
00:18:14Still trying to locate the checkpoint
00:18:16Joe and Kush
00:18:18Excuse me
00:18:19We're trying to get to this place called Fiskado
00:18:22Do you guys have any idea?
00:18:25Here it says that it's a village in Greece
00:18:27In Greece?
00:18:29What?
00:18:30We must be going through this little gap
00:18:31We have to close this block
00:18:32Yeah, Greece is pretty though
00:18:34You have a nice day
00:18:37See you soon
00:18:38Thank you
00:18:39Nicely done, my bro
00:18:41So I think the fastest way is if we can find a ferry over to Naples
00:18:45I'm sure that we can connect very quick
00:18:47Sort of up, across and down into Greece
00:18:50So
00:18:51Let's get to the ferry port and hopefully we can get on the boat overnight
00:18:55As the boys head for Palermo port
00:18:58Trains are here Molly
00:18:59Oh perfect
00:19:00Tickets this way
00:19:01Andrew and Molly are planning their departure
00:19:03Hello
00:19:04We need two tickets to Messina
00:19:0632 and 60
00:19:08Thank you
00:19:09Thank you
00:19:09Thank you
00:19:11Excuse me
00:19:12Does this go to Messina?
00:19:14Yes
00:19:14Yes
00:19:15Double checking
00:19:17Fingers crossed that we're leaving Sicily tonight
00:19:20Because both of us haven't travelled
00:19:22It's quite important that we prove to ourselves on the first day that we can do it
00:19:26It's my first train in Italy Molly
00:19:29Yeah
00:19:29You know my love of trains
00:19:30Let's get moving
00:19:32The father and daughter aim to build momentum and reach the mainland by tonight
00:19:37Following the same route as Pooja and Roshni
00:19:42I love Naples
00:19:43Absolutely brilliant place
00:19:45I hate it
00:19:46I loathe Naples
00:19:47I've been there quite a few times and I just
00:19:50You enjoyed it?
00:19:50It was brilliant
00:19:52I've been once
00:19:53I just didn't enjoy it at all
00:19:54Caught in deliberation
00:19:57Mark and Margot
00:19:58I don't want to go to big city
00:20:00Okay
00:20:01I would rather go along the coast and go to smaller towns
00:20:05It'd be quite nice to go up here through Pooja
00:20:08Sounds good
00:20:08It's a part of Italy that neither of us have been to
00:20:11Yeah
00:20:11At this stage we're feeling our way in
00:20:14We've got to explore and see where our interests do collide
00:20:17I'd like to see that those truly
00:20:19They're circular with the stone conical roots
00:20:22I've always wanted to see them
00:20:24Race wise I don't know if it's the wisest decision
00:20:27But it's speaking to us both isn't it?
00:20:29Absolutely
00:20:30I think we'll go with our heart not with our head
00:20:34Feeling the pool of Pooja
00:20:36They set a course to Italy's east coast
00:20:38In the hope of exploring the region's old world charm
00:20:43Ah!
00:20:44Paloma Centrale
00:20:45Yeah, here we are
00:20:46Grazie, grazie
00:20:48Sign down there says Porto
00:20:50Yes!
00:20:52With a ferry crossing in their sights
00:20:54Katie and Harrison
00:20:55Free shuttle bus
00:20:57Oh yeah, sound
00:20:58Where were you two hours ago?
00:21:01Buongiorno
00:21:01Can we get two tickets to Napoli?
00:21:04Please
00:21:05One hundred fifty five
00:21:09One hundred fifty five
00:21:09So sixty two fifty each
00:21:10Just figured it out and that's about four percent of our budget I think gone
00:21:14It's a bit of a tough one to swallow
00:21:15And how long is the boat?
00:21:18Twenty five hours
00:21:18Thank you so much
00:21:19Grazie
00:21:20I think twelve hours moving is really good progress
00:21:23For day one we're doing pretty well
00:21:31Selling for the night
00:21:33Got a bite on my face
00:21:34Looks really itchy
00:21:35Like a type of
00:21:36I've got Mount Edna on my face
00:21:39Mount Edna?
00:21:40Edna, that's the one
00:21:41Edna's her cousin
00:21:44Oh it looks like we're moving
00:21:46On the same overnight ferry
00:21:49Joe and Kush
00:21:54Could do with a shower
00:21:55Maybe we could have a dip on
00:21:56Jump off
00:21:57Yeah
00:21:58Get one of the rubber rings
00:21:59And just float around the back
00:22:02I could really do with a cup of tea and a custard cream
00:22:04You always can do with a custard cream and a custard cream
00:22:07No but this is like an especially like end of the day
00:22:11This is peak cosy cream in tea time
00:22:14Yeah I think it'd be three
00:22:15Three cosy creams
00:22:17And three cups of tea
00:22:19And three cups of tea
00:22:31What's up?
00:22:32What's up?
00:22:33What's up?
00:22:35Having made it across to the mainland last night
00:22:37Two teams are already on the move north
00:22:41Why are we here?
00:22:42To experience things
00:22:43Why not stop somewhere along the way
00:22:46Explore maybe the coast?
00:22:48Yeah
00:22:48Do something we've always wanted to do
00:22:50A bit of kayaking
00:22:51Maybe see the sea caves
00:22:52Before we make that mad dash to Bari
00:22:55Great job
00:22:55I like that plan
00:22:56We've made good time yesterday
00:22:58We made the effort yesterday
00:23:00To reward ourselves
00:23:01To reward ourselves
00:23:02Perfect
00:23:04Oh gosh look
00:23:05Look look look
00:23:06Oh that is really nice
00:23:07You can see the whole coast
00:23:10There's been a lot of farmland as well
00:23:11Lots of crops that you want to eat
00:23:13Just like you know fresh Italian tomatoes
00:23:15Like cherry tomatoes that taste like grapes
00:23:17That's what I want to eat
00:23:19That's what I want to eat
00:23:20If mum knew that I was hungry
00:23:22She would totally freak out
00:23:23She'd call 999 and be like
00:23:25My daughter is hungry in Italy
00:23:31Lounge deck
00:23:32Oh
00:23:33It's a sea breeze
00:23:35Trailing the pack
00:23:36Mark and Margot are making the short hop to southern Italy
00:23:40It's absolutely gorgeous
00:23:42Things are fitting into place
00:23:44Can we sit here?
00:23:45Yeah
00:23:46Once we get to mainland Italy
00:23:47And get a bus all the way to Puglia
00:23:49We shall be able to get there by this evening
00:23:51After a slow start
00:23:53The pair are skipping the sights of Calabria
00:23:56For express travel to Puglia
00:24:00Ooh
00:24:02Look at this
00:24:04People are joining in
00:24:05I think it's a flash mob
00:24:09You going to join in?
00:24:10I'm not tempted at all
00:24:11Come on Mark
00:24:12I'm not joining in now
00:24:14Can we join in?
00:24:16Yeah
00:24:17I'm not very good
00:24:18I need you on the back
00:24:19Mark is very impulsive
00:24:21I'm not quite as brash as Margot
00:24:24La la
00:24:25La la la
00:24:26What do we do?
00:24:28I haven't got the musical beat
00:24:30Oh
00:24:30Oh, if they're turning around
00:24:31I don't know what we're doing
00:24:32On the ferry
00:24:33This is mad
00:24:35It's very Margot
00:24:37Very much joie de vivre
00:24:39Full of life she is
00:24:40Yay!
00:24:41Yay!
00:24:42Oh wow
00:24:51Naples
00:24:52Founded by the Greeks as Neapolis or New City
00:24:56It's hailed as the birthplace of modern pizza
00:25:00Where narrow streets pulse with life
00:25:02And the air echoes with the songs of devoted football fans
00:25:08Oh lad
00:25:09There we go
00:25:09Gary Baldy
00:25:11Baldy Gary bro
00:25:12I'm not a biscuit
00:25:15After their overnight ferry
00:25:17Two teams have reached the cosmopolitan city
00:25:19Yeah!
00:25:21We're so good at this
00:25:24Woo!
00:25:26Getting a ton already
00:25:28But while Joe and Kush make a swift departure towards the Sorrentine Peninsula
00:25:36Everywhere you look is beautiful
00:25:39Katie and Harrison have a chance to explore before their shift
00:25:43It's got character
00:25:44You just keep looking up, it's just like amazing like
00:25:47I think what it is, is everything hanging off the balcony is blown in the wind
00:25:50Yeah, it's so cute
00:25:52Even though it's just people's dirty laundry
00:25:55Oh wow
00:25:57Just literally everything is Maradona
00:25:59Maradona everything
00:26:00Football's clearly a way of life here
00:26:03I've never seen anyone idolised like this
00:26:05Ever
00:26:06Like you don't even see religions idolised like this
00:26:09No
00:26:09Like he's beyond the religion
00:26:11It's just, it's wild
00:26:12Right, 40 minutes to our shift
00:26:14Shall we go?
00:26:17Right
00:26:19Left
00:26:20Now we need to get turned on a wee bit
00:26:21Left, left, left
00:26:22After 260 kilometres along the Calabrian coast
00:26:26Andrew and Molly's push for momentum pays off
00:26:29With their chance to take to the water
00:26:32On the southern spine of the Apennine mountain range
00:26:36Maratea is a tectonically active region
00:26:39Where black mineral rich sands meet a labyrinth of sea carved caves
00:26:44Yay!
00:26:46Wow
00:26:49Look at the colour of the water
00:26:51It's nearly bioluminescence
00:26:53Oh my god
00:26:54This is so cool
00:26:56Do you see the pop marks in the limestone?
00:26:59Yeah
00:27:00I'm a geography teacher
00:27:02I've been doing it for 30 years
00:27:04It's the only job I've done because I love teaching
00:27:07I love the mystery that surrounds caves
00:27:10I feel like I'm a mermaid
00:27:12I daydream about travel all the time in school
00:27:15But I have not seen as much of the world as I'd like
00:27:17Definitely not
00:27:18There is only a certain amount you can learn from a photograph
00:27:21Because somebody else's photograph
00:27:23Hello world
00:27:26We're free
00:27:27When you have kids and you get married
00:27:29And those kind of things dictate to you where you can go
00:27:32And yes, maybe a fact of a bit of fear as well
00:27:36And it's kind of stopped me from doing it
00:27:38A fear of the unknown
00:27:39There's a bit of a scaredy-cat in me at times
00:27:41Love to be adventurous
00:27:42But adventures in a kind of a... in quotations
00:27:46Ollie, this is fab
00:27:47This is so good
00:27:54Buongiorno
00:27:55Scusi
00:27:56Grazie
00:27:58Arrivederci
00:28:01In Naples, Katie and Harrison are embracing the city's famed cafe culture
00:28:08This is my friend
00:28:09Yes, you look good
00:28:10Manchester
00:28:11Manchester, yeah

00:28:20I'm sorry
00:28:22The siblings are sampling a shift at Grand Cafe Gambrinas
00:28:27A Neapolitan institution since 1860
00:28:32Hello
00:28:34Erm

00:28:41This one
00:28:41Throw me in there
00:28:44I know no Italian

00:28:59Cheers boys

00:29:02This is the best I'll look for eight weeks
00:29:04I think the cream suits me
00:29:06I feel like quite Italian
00:29:08Grazie
00:29:08Grazie
00:29:09Grazie
00:29:09And I'm pretty pleased
00:29:11We'll have 80 euros soon

00:29:14Pay for a hotel
00:29:15And then tomorrow

00:29:18To get the ferry across to Greece

00:31:24Gallopina
00:31:25Alla
00:31:26Alla
00:31:26Sorrentina

00:32:06No, she will
00:32:08Me and Kosh, we were both brought up by our moms
00:32:11I think a lot of my good qualities come from my mom
00:32:14My positivity, try to succeed, my empathy
00:32:18And for me, family is still priority number one over everything
00:32:25I wish you could stay for longer to be honest, but
00:32:27Isn't it?
00:32:27If it weren't a race, and it was just
00:32:29Like
00:32:29Chill across the world

00:33:05This is my
00:33:05What is that?
00:33:07This is my cocoon
00:33:08What's it for?
00:33:09What did you...
00:33:09What's it?
00:33:10Modesty, sir
00:33:13Why do you need a modesty cocoon?
00:33:15Well, last night we had separate beds
00:33:18But tonight, we're sharing a bed for the first time
00:33:21Do you think it was ridiculous?
00:33:24And also, I don't sleep on the same sheet as you in case you fart
00:33:28Thank you, Ma
00:33:29Please, okay
00:33:30All right, let's get some sleep

00:33:44That's huge
00:33:47Diamante
00:33:48Known as the city of murals
00:33:50Where more than 150 large paintings adorn ageing buildings
00:33:55Can we have some...
00:33:57Cafe?
00:33:58Cafe?

00:34:11Cafe Napolitano
00:34:11It's strong
00:34:14Oh, okay
00:34:16Grazie, Giuseppe
00:34:19This is, like, pure Italian grandma cooking
00:34:22This is, like, pure Italian grandma cooking
00:34:23Oh, she doesn't want to try
00:34:25Oh, she doesn't want to try
00:34:27It's good
00:34:30Giuseppe
00:34:32Matrimony
00:34:37It's because food is good
00:34:41Me and Roshni have had such a nice time
00:34:43We're enjoying the Italian travel experience
00:34:46And now we have a train booked at around six o'clock
00:34:50We're in a beautiful town
00:34:52I just want to enjoy it
00:34:53Should we just wander around street to street and see what we see?
00:34:57Yeah
00:34:57Roshni, look at the sea
00:34:58This looks beautiful
00:35:01We are technically cousins
00:35:04But our relationship feels like sisters
00:35:07And we behave like friends
00:35:10We behave like five-year-olds
00:35:12That looks very Banksy
00:35:13Is that Banksy?
00:35:15You think Banksy came all the way here?
00:35:17To the beach
00:35:19I just don't think we've spent enough time together as adults
00:35:23We went to different unis
00:35:25And we work hard
00:35:27Smile
00:35:28Recently, I think we both just realised that
00:35:30We've been missing each other a lot
00:35:33Oh
00:35:35Your shoes get wet
00:35:36Wear your shoes
00:35:37Pooj is one of the most humble people I know
00:35:39She has achieved so much
00:35:41And all you get from her is just love
00:35:43I feel like Pooj's relationship with...
00:35:45Oh, don't cry
00:35:47I wish I could record this
00:35:49And then I could just play that to you
00:35:50When you're getting upset on the race
00:35:52Be like, remember, this is what you think of me
00:35:54I love my feet right now
00:35:56They're very happy
00:35:58Do you have everything well at you?
00:36:00Yes
00:36:00OK, good
00:36:02With all teams needing to move east
00:36:04Reaching the Adriatic in good time
00:36:06Is key to the journey ahead
00:36:09They can set sail from Bari into southern Greece
00:36:12And then island hop through the Ionian Sea
00:36:15To the first checkpoint on Cephalonia
00:36:18Or set off from Brindisi
00:36:20To make a shorter hop to Egomenica
00:36:22And head south through Greece's Western Isles
00:36:25We're trying to transverse the country
00:36:28From the west coast to the east coast
00:36:29There's Bari Centrale
00:36:31Yes
00:36:32Duration is 7 hours 43 minutes
00:36:34Perfecto
00:36:37Italian trains, they're on time
00:36:39If anything, they're perfect
00:36:44All right
00:36:44All right
00:36:44Here we are
00:36:45Also with Bari in their sights
00:36:47Joe and Kush
00:36:48So

00:37:06Happy days
00:37:06Happy days
00:37:08Happy days
00:37:10It's hot here isn't it?
00:37:13Scotchio
00:37:14Just 55 kilometres away from the port
00:37:17Mark and Margo wake up in Alberobello
00:37:22There's features of beauty isn't there?
00:37:25Yeah
00:37:25Hundreds of years old
00:37:27The iconic stone truly
00:37:29Are said to have been built without mortar to dodge taxes
00:37:33Designed to be dismantled before the inspectors arrived
00:37:36Good stone work
00:37:37Mega
00:37:38Today
00:37:39They stand protected by UNESCO
00:37:42A cone topped maze teeming with tourists
00:37:46Station's over there isn't it?
00:37:48Stazione is pretty easy
00:37:49Yeah
00:37:49Are the Italians picking up?
00:37:51I know
00:37:52We are planning on going to Bari
00:37:55And then we want to head over to the port
00:37:57And get right over to Greece as quickly as possible
00:38:00Where's that going?
00:38:01Bari
00:38:02Bari
00:38:03Bari
00:38:03It's only bus
00:38:04Another bus
00:38:06Is there a train?
00:38:09Only bus
00:38:10There's no seat
00:38:11Oh
00:38:11It's so frustrating
00:38:13But what needs we know?
00:38:15The current situation is there are no more buses tonight
00:38:17He just can't get out of the place
00:38:19It's a real setback in the race
00:38:21We're stuck here
00:38:23Excuse me
00:38:24Can you recommend a cheap bed for the night?
00:38:28Buonasera
00:38:29Dovrei chiedere una stanza solo per stasera
00:38:32Per...
00:38:34Tutto pieno?
00:38:35Ah ok va bene
00:38:37Grazie mille lo stesso
00:38:38Buongiorno
00:38:39Full full
00:38:41Full
00:38:50Full
00:38:54Full
00:38:55Full
00:38:55It's a problem
00:38:56There's no room at the inn
00:38:58I don't know what we're going to do
00:39:07Right
00:39:08Ticket office
00:39:09Ticket
00:39:10Bigliotel
00:39:11Already in Bari
00:39:13A direct early morning bus from Naples has put Katie and Harrison in prime position
00:39:18Can we buy a ticket to Cappellonia?
00:39:21Cappellonia will go to Patras
00:39:24Superb
00:39:25Does the boat leave today?
00:39:27Oh
00:39:28This is exciting now
00:39:29This is tasty
00:39:30We could get there tomorrow
00:39:32And how much?
00:39:3476 euros
00:39:3576?
00:39:36That's brilliant
00:39:37I was prepared to pay 150
00:39:38It's unbelievable
00:39:39I'm so happy about that
00:39:40Today has gone
00:39:41Mwah
00:39:43Securing the ferry means the siblings will be the first team to cross the sea to Greece
00:39:49Do we have our sandwiches?
00:39:52Starving
00:39:53Bread
00:39:54I'm so excited
00:39:56Pocket meat and cheese
00:39:58The cheese is feeling pretty sweaty but...
00:40:01Let's go
00:40:05Really dry
00:40:07Really dry is an understatement
00:40:08Really dry
00:40:10Like I've just stuck my face in the Sahara Desert
00:40:13I can't swallow it
00:40:16I'm so dry
00:40:21Lesson alert
00:40:22Stop being so tight and buy some mayo
00:40:25Oh my god
00:40:26That was a workout trying to get that down
00:40:29I think we can keep doing this
00:40:31This cost us a euro 61 per meal
00:40:34That's so cheap
00:40:36You just need a bottle of sauce to take it to one euro 80
00:40:40Yeah
00:40:41Cost per meal will be quite small
00:40:43Exactly
00:40:43Yeah, cost per meal
00:40:45But...
00:40:46You are getting there
00:40:47You are getting the budgeting
00:40:50Thank god
00:41:01BUENASERA SENORAS
00:41:02BUENASERA
00:41:03BUENASERA
00:41:03BUENASERA
00:41:03BUENASERA
00:41:03BUENASERA
00:41:03BUENASERA
00:41:03BUENASERA
00:41:03BUENASERA
00:41:04Stuck and Albaro Bello for a second night
00:41:07Mark and Margo
00:41:08Oh wow, look at that
00:41:09Shall we go up here?
00:41:11OK
00:41:12We've been trying for five hours
00:41:14To find accommodation in this town
00:41:17Everything is booked up
00:41:18There's nowhere
00:41:19Oh wow
00:41:20I'd love to have a go at one of these
00:41:22Wouldn't you?
00:41:22I know you would
00:41:22Come on, you get one, I get one
00:41:24Mmm
00:41:26If I was by myself
00:41:27I'd be very stressed out now
00:41:28But I'm just so chilled at the moment
00:41:30I think it's the influence of Margo
00:41:32It's the Margo effect
00:41:33If she's not worried, I'm not worried
00:41:36If they've got nowhere to stay
00:41:38No
00:41:38He's not getting us down
00:41:40No
00:41:40Nothing's gonna stop us
00:41:43The three years of caring for my wife Julia
00:41:46My role was making sure that she was comfortable and safe
00:41:49And that she had square meals
00:41:51And she had all the medication
00:41:52But Margo gave her the will to live
00:41:56Excitement
00:41:57A spark of life
00:42:13Caring for someone, it's not a one-man job
00:42:15When she was ill, I used to go there for weeks at a time to help out
00:42:19Leaving my partner behind
00:42:21And I would be sitting with her
00:42:23Eating sweets, drinking cups of tea
00:42:25Laughing, giggling and just having fun
00:42:35There's a saying, isn't it? Enjoy yourself
00:42:37It's later than you think
00:42:38Julia can't go on this race
00:42:40But we can
00:42:41And so it's like
00:42:43Enjoy yourself
00:42:44Go for it
00:42:45It's that chance, isn't it?
00:42:47Yeah, we're gonna enjoy ourselves
00:42:51Yeah
00:42:54It's brilliant, wish you were here
00:42:56Yeah, he's great
00:42:57But you do wish Julia was here, don't you?
00:42:59I do
00:43:00Even though she hated Pink Floyd
00:43:03After an evening filled with searching
00:43:05Mark and Margo have finally secured accommodation
00:43:08Ah
00:43:09Hallelujah
00:43:10Yeah
00:43:11A little baby truly
00:43:12Brilliant
00:43:13Oh
00:43:14But their last minute room in peak season
00:43:16Has cost them 4% of their total budget
00:43:19Thank you very much
00:43:20Thank you very much
00:43:21Grazie mille
00:43:22Ciao
00:43:22Ciao
00:43:22Bye
00:43:23I'm absolutely knackered
00:43:55But saying that
00:43:56It's
00:43:56I'm lucky
00:43:57And it's a great honour, isn't it?
00:43:58It's a great honour to be able to spend that time and to do that for someone and be there
00:44:01for them
00:44:03Cheers, Mark
00:44:05Cheers
00:44:15Two lads are over there
00:44:17Oh
00:44:18So, they're doing the same as us
00:44:19Yeah
00:44:20We can give them the game face eyes
00:44:22At the port of Bari
00:44:24Planning to catch the 17-hour ferry to mainland Greece
00:44:27Andrew and Molly
00:44:28After that, we just take an island hop then to...
00:44:31To...
00:44:32A smaller ferry to Kefalonia
00:44:33Yes, perfect
00:44:34What did they say?
00:44:35They're doing the same one
00:44:37And Joe and Cush
00:44:38And how much will it be for two?
00:44:40Sorry
00:44:41Five
00:44:42Six
00:44:42Six
00:44:44We might be on the button, Molly
00:44:45Yeah
00:44:46Thirteen
00:44:47Fourteen
00:44:48Fifteen
00:44:49We're ten short
00:44:50Is there any way we could change money?
00:44:52Okay
00:44:53Okay, thank you
00:44:54Thank you
00:44:55Problems
00:44:56Ciao
00:44:57Ciao
00:44:58Okay, problemo
00:45:00You know the people who come before us?
00:45:03Yes
00:45:03Did they try and buy the same ticket?
00:45:06Yeah
00:45:06They didn't buy the ticket
00:45:07Because they had enough money
00:45:09Ooh
00:45:11It's Sunday at the moment
00:45:12And banks are always going to be closed
00:45:14So maybe somebody might help us out here
00:45:16And change a bit of money
00:45:17Or we won't be able to go on this ferry
00:45:19These are your tickets
00:45:20Thank you
00:45:21Ciao
00:45:22Excuse me
00:45:23Do you know anywhere I could get euro for sterling?
00:45:26Euro?
00:45:27No
00:45:28Right, outside the port
00:45:30You wouldn't give us a tenner for a tenner, no?
00:45:32Oh, it's a shame
00:45:32Do it not?
00:45:34It's a shame
00:45:35We're ten euro short for the ferry
00:45:37Would you be able to give
00:45:38And we give you sterling?
00:45:40No
00:45:41No
00:45:42Okay, sorry
00:45:43Oh, they look stumped
00:45:44What?
00:45:45They look stumped
00:45:46I feel like we should help them all
00:45:48No
00:45:48Oh, lad, what are you chatting?
00:45:51Joe's always looking out for people
00:45:52I admire it
00:45:53However, this is a competition
00:45:55And you can't be giving the other person the advantage over you
00:45:59Isn't this pretty?
00:46:01Yes
00:46:02If they don't find it
00:46:03Sick
00:46:04Realistically
00:46:05Not to be mean
00:46:06Sick
00:46:06If they have to stay behind
00:46:07Then we're winning
00:46:09Oh, nah
00:46:10I feel bad, you know
00:46:12Right, just need to keep trying
00:46:13That's all we can do
00:46:14Excuse me
00:46:15We need to get our ferry ticket
00:46:17Would you have ten euro
00:46:18And I'll give you ten pounds sterling?
00:46:20Good
00:46:21Grazie
00:46:22Grazie
00:46:23Grazie
00:46:24Grazie
00:46:25Grazie
00:46:25Thank you
00:46:26Thank you
00:46:28Oh my god, the stress
00:46:3062
00:46:3163
00:46:32Thank you very much
00:46:34But both of us work as a team
00:46:36Bang in the game
00:46:37Grease, here we come
00:46:44Is this train going to Rundizi?
00:46:48Also heading to a port
00:46:49Pooja and Roshni
00:46:51Feeling a bit more apprehensive this morning
00:46:53Thinking about where everybody else is
00:46:56Are they behind us?
00:46:57Are they already there?
00:46:58I just feel mentally exhausted
00:47:01The cousins are the first team to opt for the shorter ferry crossing
00:47:05To one of Greece's busiest ports
00:47:08Egumenica
00:47:10Hopefully there's a night ferry
00:47:12Positive thoughts
00:47:13We'll get there
00:47:14We'll swim there if we have to
00:47:15Put us a float on our backpacks
00:47:22None of them are saying Bahari
00:47:23I think we should try and get some more information
00:47:27Mark and Margo have made it to Monopoly
00:47:30Down the coast from the port of Bahari
00:47:33Bahari?
00:47:34Bahari?
00:47:34Eh, no, Brindisi
00:47:36Oh, do you know
00:47:37Can we get a boat
00:47:38From Brindisi to Greece?
00:47:41A boat?
00:47:42Ferry
00:47:42Vero
00:47:43Vero, a boat
00:47:45Boat?
00:47:46Ah
00:47:47El ferry
00:47:47Ferry
00:47:48Ferry
00:47:50We've had to make a quick decision
00:47:51Because the train's about to come
00:47:53Let's do it
00:47:53Brindisi
00:47:54We could steal some time
00:47:56I'm very, very happy with that
00:48:04Late
00:48:07Hindering our race
00:48:09Move
00:48:09You're about
00:48:10Quicker
00:48:11Me and Greece aren't going to get on
00:48:17Although its ancient poetry, politics and philosophy still resonate in our lives today
00:48:22Greece was only declared a modern state in 1830
00:48:26Having been assailed by successive conquerors from the Romans and Byzantians to the Venetians and the Ottoman Empire
00:48:34Now with a coastline of over 13,000 kilometres, the longest on the Mediterranean Sea, it's known for its 6
00:48:42,000 islands, of which just over 200 are inhabited
00:48:50Right, here we go
00:48:51Let's hope there's some more boats this afternoon
00:48:55Arriving in the commercial port of Patras, Katie and Harrison are the first team to reach the second country of
00:49:02the race
00:49:03We want to go to Kefalonia
00:49:06The ferry left one o'clock
00:49:08One o'clock, okay, so there's a ferry tomorrow though
00:49:10Yes, but there's a ferry from Kilini
00:49:13Yeah
00:49:13That goes to Kefalonia
00:49:16Okay, today
00:49:17Today
00:49:17How do we get to Kilini?
00:49:19By taxi
00:49:20The price is there
00:49:22The 100 euros?
00:49:24Oh, we are the 100 euros
00:49:25I can make it 90
00:49:2690
00:49:28Do we risk it to get there today?
00:49:31Can you check if there are tickets?
00:49:32There are tickets
00:49:33100%?
00:49:33Yes, if there are no tickets, you don't pay me
00:49:35Do we just do it?
00:49:37Shall I get there?
00:49:38We might be able to get to Fiscardi tonight
00:49:39Yeah
00:49:40You are going to be able to
00:49:41Are we?
00:49:42Yeah, of course
00:49:42Perfect, thank you
00:49:43Thank you very much, thank you
00:49:45Oh, it's hair conditioned
00:49:47Go, go, go
00:49:48How far is it, taxi drive?
00:49:50One hour
00:49:51Your English is very good
00:49:53I'm Australian
00:49:53Ah, are you?
00:49:55A spontaneous spend for the budget conscious siblings
00:49:59will take them 75 kilometres to Kilini
00:50:02in search of their final ferry crossing
00:50:08Buena sera, buena sera
00:50:09Still in Italian waters
00:50:11but heading east towards the Greek shores
00:50:14Mark and Margo
00:50:15This is quite nice, isn't it?
00:50:17It's well swanky
00:50:18And Pooja and Roshni
00:50:20I think the seating area is this way
00:50:23Is it?
00:50:24John
00:50:24Oh, hello
00:50:26Hi
00:50:26Hi
00:50:27How are you guys?
00:50:28Good, good
00:50:29Well, look, we're all crossing paths
00:50:32Hello
00:50:33Hello
00:50:34Good night, guys
00:50:35Good night
00:50:35Good night
00:50:37Up till today, we really thought we were, like, last
00:50:40But seeing the girls, it was like a little lightbulb
00:50:44Oh, we might not have done so badly
00:50:46If we don't get many people, it'd be like business class
00:50:50Voila
00:50:51That is good
00:50:52Just need someone to come and serve me and a glass of champagne
00:51:03430 kilometres ahead
00:51:05Thank you very much
00:51:06Wow, let's pay and go
00:51:08Katie and Harrison have made it to Kefalonia
00:51:11What a place
00:51:12Oh
00:51:14Arriving into the town of Fiscardo
00:51:16Where harbour lights shimmer against dark Ionian waters
00:51:20And the first checkpoint nestles deep amongst towering cypress trees
00:51:27What would be helpful if we weren't in the pitch black?
00:51:30PHONE RINGS
00:51:32OK
00:51:32What does it say?
00:51:33Continue on foot, look for the local map stands
00:51:36And you can find an off-road shortcut to your first checkpoint
00:51:39Continue on foot
00:51:40Off road track
00:51:42It's a map here, Katie's map
00:51:44Hotel on the lease
00:51:45Where did you are here?
00:51:47I hate maps
00:51:48We are here
00:51:49It's fine, don't figure out our bearings
00:51:53I can't see anything
00:51:54Shall we put some head torches on?
00:51:56Yeah
00:51:59We're in that hill
00:52:01It's going to be a path to a hotel
00:52:06I see a big build up this way, Katie
00:52:08Oh
00:52:10It's a book
00:52:11How are you?
00:52:12Thank you
00:52:13Hello

00:52:43But we've won
00:52:44Yes
00:52:44We've won race so far
00:52:45It's made the budget
00:52:47Spend
00:52:48Just about worth it
00:52:49You just had to
00:52:50Sorry
00:52:51Just enjoy the win
00:52:53No, I know
00:52:54Come on!
00:52:56I'm really happy
00:52:58Yeah

00:53:00I'm happy
00:53:00You're happy
00:53:01We're happy

00:53:07Thank you so much
00:53:08Cheers, thank you
00:53:09Thank you very much
00:53:10Sorry for the sweaty hands
00:53:11Sorry
00:53:12Amazing
00:53:20Well there's the boys there now
00:53:22Oh there they are
00:53:23That's good
00:53:23We're not party last
00:53:24We're not party last
00:53:25Exactly
00:53:27Having made it to Greece
00:53:29Andrew and Molly and Joe and Kush
00:53:31are on a three and a half hour crossing to Kefalonia
00:53:35where they'll need to travel the final 40 kilometres from Sami by road
00:53:39We're gonna have to spend a week while in there going around see
00:53:42and if anybody is willing maybe to give us a lift
00:53:45I smell this bad
00:53:46I wouldn't give me a lift
00:53:48Are you going to Fiscardo by any chance?
00:53:50Do you know how to get from Sami to Fiscardo?
00:53:53Fiscardo? Any chance?
00:53:54No
00:53:54Yo, are you going to Fiscardo?
00:53:57We've asked I think almost everyone on the ferry
00:54:01so not ideal
00:54:03Fiscardo
00:54:04What's the best way we can get there?
00:54:06Bus
00:54:06There is not
00:54:08But
00:54:08There is a van
00:54:09It's 120 euro
00:54:11Okay
00:54:11Okay
00:54:13Thank you so much
00:54:14Very good
00:54:15Thank you
00:54:16It's 120 euro
00:54:17Mm-hmm
00:54:18So
00:54:19Would it be
00:54:20An option
00:54:21To go and ask
00:54:22The two boys
00:54:23To split the money with us?
00:54:24It would be easier
00:54:25If we're spending 60
00:54:28Knowing that they are spending 60
00:54:31It's very manipulative
00:54:33Yeah
00:54:34Even though it will not get us to checkpoint quicker
00:54:37Makes it a hell of a level
00:54:38Parable
00:54:39That's just like peace talks
00:54:41How's it going?
00:54:41Suggestion for you
00:54:42All right?
00:54:42Ooh, all right
00:54:43Captain has offered us a minivan
00:54:46For 120 euro
00:54:47Shit
00:54:48Yeah
00:54:48Do you want to split it?
00:54:50Do you know
00:54:51Okay
00:54:52He wants an answer
00:54:54Quickly
00:54:54May I speak to my associate, guys?
00:54:56Yeah, yeah, yeah
00:54:57You can speak to your associate
00:54:58Okay, okay, okay
00:55:00Regular tax will not be 120
00:55:02It'll be less than that
00:55:03No, no, no, no
00:55:04But it's 120
00:55:04It's 60
00:55:05If this was in school
00:55:06They'd be told what to do
00:55:07Because it
00:55:08They'd be told what to do
00:55:10Right
00:55:10Thank you
00:55:11Is that good?
00:55:12Sorry, you're not going to pull out
00:55:13No, no, no, no
00:55:15Alright, take it easy
00:55:15Thank you very much
00:55:17Results
00:55:18Well, okay
00:55:21We've got this, Mark
00:55:22We've got this
00:55:23Last transport before Fiscardo
00:55:26So
00:55:26We chose this route
00:55:28With our heart
00:55:29Not our head
00:55:30What that means
00:55:31Only time will tell
00:55:32We have to race to checkpoint
00:55:34Against Mark and Margo
00:55:35Maybe
00:55:36We'll be able to come first
00:55:39From the north
00:55:40And south
00:55:41Four teams converge in unison
00:55:43As they close in
00:55:45On the first checkpoint
00:55:48What's the game plan?
00:55:49Just
00:55:50Be ready to run
00:55:51Because you never know
00:55:52That ten second difference
00:55:53May be the difference
00:55:54Between getting on one train
00:55:55And subsequently not
00:55:57For the next leg
00:55:57I like your thinking
00:55:59The sooner we get that
00:56:00The sooner we leave
00:56:01Yeah
00:56:01Exactly
00:56:03Think logically
00:56:04Think quickly
00:56:05The competition is about winning
00:56:07But also trying to gain time
00:56:08On the other teams
00:56:10May the best team win
00:56:13Fiscardo
00:56:14Whoa
00:56:14We made it
00:56:15Above the calm waters of Fiscardo
00:56:18Rise narrow streets
00:56:20And relentless climbs
00:56:21And beneath the piercing sun
00:56:23The race for an early lead
00:56:25Gets underway
00:56:26This is it on
00:56:27Yeah
00:56:28I'm feeling quite competitive right now
00:56:30Just getting ready to start running
00:56:33Lads we're gonna beat you
00:56:34No way
00:56:37It's gonna be a butt race
00:56:40Yes
00:56:40Yes
00:56:45On foot find the church
00:56:48Overlooking Fiscardo Harbour
00:56:49Over there
00:56:50Yeah
00:56:50Is that the church?
00:56:52That's the church, yeah
00:56:52Let's go
00:56:54Oh, Mark, let's get here
00:56:57We can do this
00:56:58Do you know where we're going?
00:57:00Yeah
00:57:00Cool
00:57:03They're coming
00:57:04They're coming
00:57:04If this gets down to a foot race
00:57:05You know who's winning, bro
00:57:08Come on, Manny
00:57:09Hey, go speed up, man
00:57:11Come on
00:57:12Ah
00:57:14Daddy, daddy, daddy
00:57:15I just can't run this, Manny
00:57:17Snow on, Daddy
00:57:17Snow on, Daddy
00:57:18Snow on, Daddy
00:57:19All right, Manny, where we go, kid
00:57:20Right
00:57:21Let's go
00:57:22What?
00:57:23Hey, lads
00:57:23I'm gonna go past
00:57:25You've got me in need
00:57:27Church
00:57:28Shit
00:57:29That's not it, no?
00:57:30Nah
00:57:31Stay on
00:57:34I think that's it there
00:57:36Yeah
00:57:37That looks to be the entrance
00:57:39Is this it?
00:57:40Doesn't look like
00:57:41A lot of the chairs, does it?
00:57:44Continuing on foot
00:57:44Look for the local map stand
00:57:47And if you can find an off-road shortcut
00:57:50To your first checkpoint, Hotel Emelisi
00:57:53The map stand, Molly, would have been down towards the village
00:57:56Is there a church here?
00:57:58Yes
00:57:58Oh
00:57:59Up the stairs
00:58:00You okay, Puddy?
00:58:02I'm good, Puddy
00:58:04Look for the local map stands
00:58:05Right
00:58:08You know where church?
00:58:09Find the malls
00:58:10Behind the malls
00:58:11What's that?
00:58:12That was the gate
00:58:12Was you on?
00:58:13Yeah
00:58:13Oh, nah
00:58:14Look for the local map stands
00:58:16It's on
00:58:18Let's go
00:58:20We need to find the maps
00:58:22There's one here
00:58:23Right, Molly, this way
00:58:24Wait a minute
00:58:25What?
00:58:25No
00:58:25It's here
00:58:27No, it's not a map stand
00:58:28No, I just pictured Molly
00:58:30So maybe round by the harbour Molly
00:58:32Where boats are coming in
00:58:34Where's he gone?
00:58:35Hotel
00:58:36There it is
00:58:37Oh, it's right there
00:58:37There it is
00:58:38It's around that headland on the side
00:58:40Right, so let's get to the headland
00:58:42Can we follow the water?
00:58:44Okay
00:58:44Listen a minute, Marco
00:58:45Wait a minute
00:58:46What?
00:58:46Do you want to go back and draw a map a bit?
00:58:47No, I think we draw a map and you've lost the race
00:58:49Oh
00:58:51I've seen three of these
00:58:53It is, I was right
00:58:54You were right
00:58:55We need to go back up the headland
00:58:57Okay
00:58:59So I was right the first time?
00:59:00I know
00:59:01I need to listen to you
00:59:02I do need to listen to you
00:59:04Up there
00:59:05You see that?
00:59:06Yeah
00:59:12Come on
00:59:13Come on
00:59:15Come on
00:59:16Hey, hey, hey
00:59:17Mark, Mark, Mark
00:59:17It's here
00:59:19Come on
00:59:20Last one, Doritos, bro
00:59:21You're saying Box can do it in ten seconds?
00:59:23Yeah
00:59:23You can do it in nine
00:59:24Come on, Box
00:59:28Molly, come on
00:59:28Come on
00:59:29Come on
00:59:31What's your sign?
00:59:32Come on, talk him up, bro
00:59:33Oh my God
00:59:34Let's get him to sign that book
00:59:42Hear the police
00:59:44Say he's pretty serious
00:59:46This is scary
00:59:47Jesus Christ
00:59:49Everything that we knew about travel going into this
00:59:52Just does not apply
00:59:54We're coming to the middle of nowhere
00:59:57We could really do with a miracle at this point
00:59:59What do you want me to do?
01:00:00I can't mind you got a bus
01:00:01I've never travelled with just my dad before
01:00:03We don't know what we're getting ourselves into
01:00:05What the?
01:00:09Woohoo!
01:00:10Oh, gosh
01:00:11For Mark and I
01:00:12This is the chance to be spontaneous again
01:00:14Give me your vodka
01:00:16This is what I've been wanting to do this whole time
01:00:19That is amazing
01:00:20We've got a checkpoint to get to
01:00:23Get that kettle on
01:00:25Upnow
01:00:27Never
01:00:27I can't deny
01:00:35Do something
01:00:35You're coming soon
01:00:38You're going to go
01:00:40Or
01:00:53Find anotherι
