00:17It's mad to think that the mosque is under the water.
00:19I had the exact same thought.
00:21I spent too much time with you.
00:24I love it.
00:27After a 4,500km race through Europe to the south-east of Turquia, now just four teams
00:35remain.
00:37Last leg, back in mind, we were like elimination, elimination, so it's nice to go forward and
00:41not have to worry.
00:42When I just saw it wasn't us last, it was just, to be honest, it was just pure, really.
00:46That's the thing, even Pooze and Ross, it's just heartbreaking seeing them go.
00:50Yeah, it really does show anything can happen.
00:54Siblings Katie and Harrison are in front for the third time, but their lead has diminished
00:59to under ten hours.
01:01After opening that book and seeing Harrison face first, their time was a surprise, now
01:05they're only half a day ahead.
01:06Maybe they'll take their foot off the gas a little bit.
01:08We've got through the elimination, and now that's out of the way, our new goal is getting
01:12to Mongolia and getting that first place.
01:14I do think we are slowly creeping up on him.
01:17Yeah, yeah.
01:17Now we've got first in our head.
01:18Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:19It's not don't be last, it's be first.
01:21Well, we started fourth, and then we came third, now we're second, so there's only one
01:25place to go.
01:26We've got to go to number one spot.
01:28Yeah.
01:28Myself and Mark, we are so lined up, ready.
01:31Sorry guys.
01:32We've got all our ducks in a row.
01:33Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:34We all want to be first, don't we?
01:36Someone will have to displace Katie and Harrison.
01:38What do you mean someone?
01:39Someone.
01:39Us two.
01:40Us two.
01:44As three teams wait to depart.
01:47Right, shall we get going?
01:49First to set off, race leaders Katie and Harrison.
01:53Just for you.
01:54Perfect, thank you so much.
01:57Shall we see how we're going?
02:00Tbilis, yes, I don't know how to say it, but it's where I want it to go.
02:03Is it Georgia?
02:03I was so excited to go there.
02:05Yeah.
02:06I'm so happy.
02:07Thank you very much.
02:07Cheers, thank you.
02:08Cheers, thank you.
02:09Oh, that's so good.
02:11New country, about to be unlocked.
02:18God, there is nothing here.
02:20Yeah.
02:21It's dead.
02:22Yeah.
02:23But at nearly midnight, the progress stalls immediately.
02:28We're not getting out tonight unless you're going to spend ridiculous money on a taxi.
02:32Nope.
02:34We're off to a bad start.
02:36Oh.
02:37Do you have a room for two people for tonight?
02:40Yeah.
02:44Race starts tomorrow.
03:00New day, new chapter of the race.
03:02Yeah.
03:03Let's hit it.
03:05Not getting out of our party last night means we no longer have a ten hour leave.
03:09But I think as long as you keep them in relative touching distance, I'll be happy enough.
03:13I'm actually well buzzed with going to Georgia.
03:15Why did you want to go?
03:16It's just a bit rogue, isn't it?
03:18A 1,700-kilometre journey to Georgia's capital, the fourth checkpoint, Tbilisi.
03:28Meaning warm place.
03:29Legend has it that King Vaktang Gorgasale founded the city after his falcon fell into a hot spring, revealing the
03:40area's natural thermal waters.
03:43Today, those sulphur baths still steam, set against a backdrop of modern, futuristic architecture.
03:53Er, Jean Lerfa?
03:55OK.
03:55What have you got?
03:55Yeah?
03:56Let's have it.
03:59Finally on the road, Katie and Harrison are heading to the closest transport hub, Shan Lerfa.
04:05Should we have a look at the map and see where we're going and what we've got to do?
04:08We could go all the way to the edge of Turkey and then up.
04:13But nothing's there.
04:14Yeah.
04:14Or we could go straight up from where we are to the coast.
04:19To reach Tbilisi, teams may choose to hug the Black Sea coast, a popular route for domestic tourists.
04:28But the winding coastal roads could slow progress.
04:31Or they could opt to stay inland, striking a direct route through Turkey's arid heartland.
04:39Rich in Kurdish culture, but with fewer connections.
04:44Both routes converge at the Georgian border as they navigate new terrain towards the capital.
04:52I feel like along the Black Sea you can see a lot more transport routes.
04:57Samsung looks like a pretty big city.
04:58Yeah.
04:59It would be great to do some homestays.
05:02It would be good to actually integrate the local people a bit more.
05:06We haven't spent too much time with the locals so far.
05:10I am looking forward to it.
05:12I'm obviously nervous, you know, it's not a natural thing.
05:15But I do think we'll get most out of it.
05:17I'm really excited.
05:19Homestays scare me.
05:20It's just going to be awkward.
05:22But it's something we need to do in terms of, like, putting me out of my comfort zone.
05:26Yeah.
05:26And maybe, like, I'll enjoy it.
05:29Planning to sample their first homestay of the race, the siblings aim to head north towards the well-connected coast.
05:37Samsung.
05:38Two.
05:39Brilliant.
05:41We booked an overnight bus tonight, travelling the whole length of Turkey in one night.
05:47And then we can get straight to our homestay tomorrow.
05:50But there's nothing we can do until then.
05:53So, yeah.
05:54We just have to wait here most of the day.
06:02It's bringing you step today, Mark.
06:04Next, to leave Halfeti.
06:06The elimination's out of the way.
06:08The shackles are off.
06:10Hypnotherapist Margo and her brother-in-law, Mark.
06:13We need to get all the way across northeast of Turkey.
06:18The direct route north up towards the Black Sea coast is probably going to be better connected and faster.
06:22I do fancy that route.
06:23Yeah.
06:25I think going east is my preferred option.
06:29And I'd like to see a little bit of more rural Turkey heading towards Van.
06:35You know, we used to have two Van cats, Arnie and Keeps.
06:38Beautiful and cuddly, with odd eyes, very unique cats.
06:42Seeing that Van is here, I'd like to go see where they came from.
06:49No, I like the sound of that.
06:51Yeah.
06:51I do like the sound of that.
06:53He's kind of bewitched me with talk of Van.
06:56I think he's hypnotised me a bit to want to go there.
06:59Because I just went, yes, I'd like to go there.
07:02An adventure.
07:03It's an adventure.
07:04It is an adventure.
07:05Into the unknown.
07:06We've got it in us to catch up with Katie and Harrison.
07:09Whether it's a good move or not in the race, we are heading to Van.
07:13Let's do it.
07:14Let's go.
07:15Mark's feline-friendly plan, make a 660km punt east to Lake Van.
07:21Do you think we can catch Katie and Harrison and do this route at the same time?
07:25I've got a good feeling about it, a really good feeling about it.
07:29Straight to the bus station.
07:31Yeah.
07:31Just 38 minutes behind.
07:33We did really good last leg.
07:35Yeah.
07:36Best friends Joe and Kush.
07:38It's like kind of moving away from not carrying out the budget to start to bump it up again.
07:43So honestly, any work we can get our hands on, we can do.
07:47Yeah.
07:47After spending big to stay in the race, the boys are beginning the leg with nearly 10% less than
07:53their competitors.
07:55Last leg we did everything to not be eliminated and not included.
07:58A pretty hefty taxi.
07:59Now we've got budget concerns, so we need to make money.
08:02We need to find the city busy, please.
08:05Yeah.
08:05We just need to get on the bus first.
08:09People that are behind us are going to catch up with us, so I expect the boys to appear any
08:13minute.
08:14All concertinos together.
08:15Yeah.
08:16Here are the boys.
08:17How are you?
08:18How are you?
08:19Good, how are you?
08:20You look well rested.
08:21Do you know where you're going now?
08:22Yeah.
08:23Have you got a plan?
08:24Yeah.
08:25We have a plan, yeah.
08:25Are we allowed to know where you're heading to?
08:28I don't know.
08:29I don't know.
08:31We're heading to Vam to see the test.
08:32We're going to Vam.
08:34They're trying to problem.
08:35They're trying to get information out.
08:37Yeah.
08:38Margot's job is to read people.
08:39They're going to copy our strategy, our planning, so we're going to have to keep more hush.
08:44I think the boys are on fire though.
08:47They've got something to prove to themselves.
08:49To get first place.
08:50I think they'd love to get first place.
08:52Yeah.
08:52The boys are being very shady about where they're going.
08:56Very like...
08:57And I think they're going to race as if their life depends upon it.
09:02See you boys.
09:03We'll see you guys soon.
09:04Take care.
09:04We might have to up our game.
09:06See you boys.
09:07Good luck.
09:10Will you sit down here?
09:11We can look at the map, all right?
09:12Aye, will do.
09:12OK.
09:14Woohoo!
09:15Last to depart.
09:16I think the obvious route at the moment is go up and across northern Turkey.
09:21Andrew and his daughter Molly.
09:23And we could go and see the gods on Mount Nemro trip.
09:26But I'd like to kind of meet more people, learn about their culture.
09:29That's what I wanted to do on this trip.
09:32But we had a beautiful time at Mount Olympus.
09:34And maybe the gods have looked on us.
09:36And maybe we need to go and kind of thank the gods for allowing us to get through to the
09:39next stage.
09:41But I don't want to take over here now.
09:43Yeah, I know.
09:43All right?
09:44What do you think?
09:47It would be amazing.
09:48I'm telling you.
09:48I love it.
09:49OK.
09:50I'm excited.
09:51I know you're excited.
09:52I know.
09:54A bit annoyed in the route we've taken.
09:57The whole point of this trip is taking on culture, seeing people.
10:01But he's so excited.
10:02So I've had to say yes.
10:05Feeling the pull of a summit once again, Andrew plots a course for Mount Nemrut, just three hours drive away,
10:12before heading inland through eastern Turkey.
10:16Molly, I'm thinking eastern Turkey.
10:18Yeah.
10:18But it's all very direct, going to Georgia.
10:20So this might actually pay off and get us back in the race.
10:24I'm confident it's going to be a good route to see what we want to see, but also quick enough
10:28routes because we need to move up the table a bit.
10:29So it's rather than being fort, if we can get an experience and a bit of speed as well, what
10:34more can we ask?
10:39So look.
10:40Mardin name?
10:41Yes.
10:42Where are you from?
10:43England.
10:44England.
10:45England.
10:46Yeah.
10:47Your name?
10:48France.
10:49France.
10:49Also heading east...
10:53Joe and Kush have answered an ad in the jobs directory and are on their way to the city of
10:58Mardin.
10:59We've got our work sorted.
11:01But I think we should start speaking to people about accommodation.
11:05Yo, merhaba.
11:07How are you?
11:08Do you know any very cheap hotel or hostel in Mardin?
11:16Yes.
11:18You can stay with him.
11:24In Mardin?
11:26Yeah.
11:28Bro.
11:30Don't you think we can stay at his house?
11:32What?
11:33It's the skull's charm.
11:34It's the skull's charm.
11:35It's the skull's charm.
11:36Nowhere to stay.
11:37People have gone out of their way to give.
11:38We're not tourists here.
11:40We feel like guests.
11:41We've got free accommodation, so we're making money.
11:43We are going to get fair space.
11:49The only team heading to the coast...
11:52Is this the longest motor transport we've done so far?
11:54Yes.
11:55Katie and Harrison are still waiting for their 14-hour overnight bus.
12:00Before I go on the bus.
12:01I really need to moisturise my elbows.
12:05Wash my face now before I go on there.
12:07Maybe brush my teeth before I go on there.
12:09And then I'm going to put some leggings on
12:12so that I can properly relax and get comfortable if it gets cold as well.
12:16I'm going to plait my hair so it doesn't get knotty.
12:20Yeah.
12:20This is my bag?
12:21Yeah.
12:25Blanket.
12:25Well, you're disgusting, aren't you?
12:27Sorted.
12:27Take better care of yourself, you scruff.
12:30Sorted.
12:30No wonder you don't get any women.
12:32You're minger.
12:35Well, this bus looks class.
12:37Looks nice, doesn't it?
12:38Yeah, class.
12:40Beto.
12:41I agree. Beto, indeed.
12:43Got my eye mask.
12:45Got my pink hair pubs.
12:47Good night.
12:52That's a view.
12:54God damn!
12:56Just 20 kilometres from the Syrian border,
13:01Marden's stone houses cling to the hillside,
13:04overlooking the vast Mesopotamian plain.
13:07Aw, thank you.
13:08The boys have arranged to stay with new friend Furat and his family.
13:13Your name?
13:14Baba.
13:15Baba?
13:15Yeah.
13:16John.
13:17I'm dead.
13:18Dad?
13:18Dead.
13:19Oh, father.
13:21I can't lie, I didn't expect any of this.
13:23Start a conversation on this bus.
13:25Next minute, we're in his house.
13:28Woo!
13:29Oh!
13:30It's a big thing inviting strangers to your house.
13:33Yes.
13:33What's this?
13:35Yogurt.
13:35It's yogurt.
13:36Peaner.
13:37Juice?
13:37Yes.
13:39Egg.
13:41Wow.
13:44Nice.
13:45Don't be shy, eat until you're full.
13:48He knows, he knows.
13:52He's been very kind to us.
13:54We've just had dinner with him.
13:55He's let us have a shower.
13:56He's laid these beds up for us.
13:59It does mean a lot.
14:01Free food, accommodation.
14:03We're trying to take every opportunity we can get to save money.
14:14Quarter to six in the morning.
14:16Nice time to be out.
14:18You're alone in your thoughts.
14:19It's stunning, isn't it?
14:21It's like the stairway to heaven.
14:23Well, look at the colour there.
14:24It is fab.
14:25Isn't it?
14:28High in the Taurus Mountains, Andrew and Molly have reached Mount Nemrut.
14:35Look at that.
14:36That is amazing.
14:37Wow.
14:38Beautiful, isn't it?
14:38That's exceptional.
14:39Impressive.
14:43Here, ten metres stone gods stand vigil.
14:47Built more than 2,000 years ago by King Antiochus I.
14:52Believing himself divine, he demanded a tomb among the gods.
14:56A monument that still gazes out across Comagene, the ancient kingdom he once ruled.
15:03They're cool.
15:05Daddy, look at them.
15:07Where's he going?
15:08That just sums us up.
15:10I'm looking at the human geography and he's looking at the physical geography.
15:13Molly.
15:14You come here, look.
15:15You come here.
15:16You can really see the crater rim as it makes us the whole way around.
15:21But that's what created all those lakes blocked out.
15:25Mm-hmm.
15:26Because it doesn't seem to be any rivers or anything.
15:28But you can see obviously the lakes have all been blocked.
15:30Daddy.
15:32Do you know what?
15:32I do love a hike and I do love a pretty sky.
15:36And I'll make the most of it when I'm here, but I also just love a bit of crack.
15:40I do think at the moment we're missing talking to people, chatting with people, dancing with people.
15:47I just, I love meeting people.
15:48Uh-huh.
15:49During this trip I'd love to kind of see like, I don't know, a bit of life, yeah, a bit
15:54of party.
15:55Yeah, I know.
15:56But I love, you know, I love getting up in the morning.
15:58A bit of solitude, a bit of quiet time, just to see the sun rising.
16:01This is right up my street.
16:05Look at the clouds.
16:06That is crazy.
16:06The clouds are just stunning.
16:10For me, the race is about proving to Daddy that I am capable.
16:15Yeah, I'm a junior doctor, but Daddy's very much top dog and he'd be the main influencer on the trip.
16:20And like, there's no pretending that kind of daddy-daughter dynamic, like that doesn't matter.
16:26But I think we do need to break this default of like, everything Daddy says is 100% perfect and
16:33correct.
16:33And what I say is maybe not fully trustable.
16:37There's the sun now.
16:38Yeah.
16:39Here she comes.
16:40It's beautiful.
16:41I would love for Daddy to get what he wants out of this race.
16:44But I would also very much like him to know that my opinion is also very much there to be
16:50respected.
16:52Wow.
16:55That was amazing.
16:57Did you get your fix?
16:59I did.
17:00There's a visitor centre down at the bottom, so might be able to have a look through that.
17:04I think we need to move on.
17:11I think we need to move on.
17:34I think we need to move on to Syria.
17:35I wouldn't have guessed that.
17:39900 kilometres north-west.
17:42The drive has been pretty stunning, hasn't it?
17:44Very stunning.
17:45On the left, there's the Black Sea.
17:47On the right, there's been, like, these huge green mountains.
17:52Joining the coastal highway, Katie and Harrison are approaching Samson.
17:58I'm so excited.
17:59It's a vanilla cake as well.
18:02Check, John.
18:03The other Turkish box.
18:06You and your revolving doors.
18:08I love revolving doors.
18:09I know you do.
18:10Mark and Margot have made it to Van and are now the team closest to the checkpoint.
18:17Ardahan?
18:18Ardahan.
18:19And from Ardahan, I think that would give us a crossing across the border.
18:22Yeah.
18:228.45 tomorrow?
18:241,400 each.
18:252,800.
18:26It's just nice to have this sorted, though, isn't it, Mark?
18:29Yeah.
18:30Cheers, thank you.
18:31Seeing as we've done it now, we're here.
18:33There's no bus till tomorrow.
18:35Perhaps we could see if there's anything lively happening.
18:45Look at that.
18:47My cat looks similar to that.
18:49They said it was orange and white.
18:52Native to the shores of Turquia's largest lake, Van cats are famed for their striking
18:58eyes, their water-resistant fur and an unusual love of swimming.
19:05This is Lake Van.
19:07That's it.
19:08Huge, isn't it?
19:09Not a Turkish Van cat inside.
19:12We haven't seen one, have we?
19:13No.
19:13Oh!
19:14Is that a cat over there?
19:15That ball of his arms?
19:17No, it's a baby, I think.
19:18Oh, it's a baby.
19:19I thought it was a cat!
19:22No, we've got people out.
19:24In northern Turquia, near the Black Sea...
19:28mate, I think it is.
19:29..Arison.
19:30It's not that's not Harrison.
19:31It's that's Harrison.
19:32Katie?
19:33Katie.
19:34He looks like he could pick us up.
19:35I'll do whatever he tells me to do.
19:38Katie and Harrison have reached their homestay on the outskirts of the city.
19:43tree house
19:44Oh my god
19:46Oh this is so cute
19:48I feel like I'm in a little film
19:50where they're going to stay in the cabin
19:52These get murdered in them but
19:54I'm hoping it's not those vibes
20:01This is exactly
20:03what I thought we'd be doing to be honest
20:04I'm quite happy to be doing it
20:06The siblings are working as labourers
20:09for cattle farmer Esat
20:11We've always helped around the house
20:13Especially when we lived with mum
20:15and she wasn't as
20:17well
20:18Maybe we did more than other kids
20:21Yeah

28:31if the map is badly folded it's no reflection on you as the first and mark close behind it's so
28:37beautiful beautiful fresh off an overnight bus joe and kush have stopped just short of the border in
28:45susus look at this wow oh this is sick what's this remind me of it's like grandma's house
28:54turkish grandma's protecting their budget once again they're staying with adel and his wife beren
29:01helping to care for their flock of over 100 free-range geese we come from liverpool liverpool
29:09Football much
29:13Sala
29:24So me stump you know yet
29:30Raised on open pasture the region's cool climate creates the ideal environment to rear the birds
29:39Joe prized across Turkiya for their high nutritional value and succulent texture
29:45Yeah
29:46It is quite a change coming to the east side of techy
29:51When I think it's a he think like our holiday destination busy people very touristy place
29:58But I don't think we expected this whole experience. There's good luck learn the show like that was bad thought
30:03we're doing flips
30:05That's mad push our pigeons did this like this isn't the type of thing you'll see in liverpool
30:11Think this is the geese shit some things in life that have to be done
30:15Yeah, we enjoy it. We're happy to do it. What they need us to do we came here
30:21For work and in return a bed. It's pretty much sums up our plan on this leg to save money
30:29I swear some of these are trying to square up
30:34I defo could put this on my cv. I shoveled bird poop one of the jobs we've done hotel
30:42hospitality waiters geese yeah my cv is gonna be so thick
30:47We have both finished our educations. We've got our grades and now it's a case of whether we want to
30:53work or
30:54university
30:56apprenticeships anything and this is the perfect opportunity to think about the future
31:01This is sick coming to the middle of nowhere. No, this is heavy this
31:06I hope this experience will broaden my
31:09Vision and open my eyes see what I may want to do but also
31:15discover what I
31:17Maybe don't want to do. Joe, which is heavier a kilogram of geese shit or just kilogram of chicken shit
31:24They're both a kilogram
31:25What do you mean? Oh trick question
31:29What are you?
31:30We are both going to experience so many different cultures different kinds of people different attitudes to life
31:37I just clocked taking the geese for the water. Oh, we actually are taking the geese for the water
31:42This race it's a lifetime of exploring in such a short amount of time. I think it's going to open
31:47up a lot of doors
31:48That not many people have the privilege to unlock
31:54That's adorable
31:58I was supposed to get him back
32:05This is hopper fantastic at the eastern edge of the black sea shoreline
32:11Katie and harrison have arrived in hopper where they've arranged a homestay at a nearby tea farm
32:18But first let's go let's go they look to book onward transport towards the checkpoint for tomorrow
32:24Tbilisi yeah with bus
32:27tomorrow
32:28Well, one nothing. No buses tomorrow. There's not one. No, no bus tomorrow. No
32:40We just have to wait till the day after
32:45Can we book not tomorrow but the morning after perfect thank you. Thank you
32:54With no choice but to stay in hopper for two nights the risk falling a full day behind in the
33:00race
33:01It's not ideal. It's rubbish. It's pretty terrible. It's okay. It's not okay
33:09The transports are not the best in the world for timings, so we're just stuck and feel helpless
33:16And there's nothing we can really do about that. Maybe on the teams are finding just as hard as well
33:22At least that's what I'm telling myself
33:25karma karma
33:27It's karma karma. I'm gonna throw myself in the black sea
33:34We are going to Tbilisi what's the best way to get to Tbilisi cars cars. How do we get to
33:40cars?
33:41Okay, perfect. Thank you
33:44Trailing behind andrew and molly have reached the transport hub of tat van
33:49We're trying to go to cars tonight. No bus no bus is there anywhere else around here
33:56No, no buses up anywhere tonight. No
34:00Nobody seems to run buses at nighttime. How can we get to Tbilisi? Yes
34:06Yeah, yes, it's not that can we get a bus can we get a train?
34:10Can we get a bike tomorrow bus? Yes
34:15When is that bus?
34:178.30 at 8.30 in the morning. Yeah, thank you molly take your bag
34:22We're a bit stuck there seems to be no buses tonight, but there is a bus to ezerum tomorrow morning
34:29Why is there no buses? Molly, I can't answer that question title
34:34If we are in ezerum tomorrow, okay, so would we get a bus from ezerum to Tbilisi every hours you
34:41can go to
34:42To be so daddy. He's speaking through him. He's not giving us independent information
34:47What is that possible?
34:48I
34:51Okay
34:52So
34:55I'm just a bit frustrated at the minute because daddy is not listening to me at all and he's telling
35:00me to shush
35:01Which is really annoying me, so it's okay
35:05But at the same time, I'm always dirty myself
35:09So I don't know
35:12So what do you want to do? I don't know I don't I don't know
35:16I'm not really sure what to do. I actually have no gut instinct. It's a bit annoying. I normally have
35:21something telling me
35:22So I'm kind of thinking a full day behind is what we're looking at if we stay tonight
35:29It's a choice between budget and getting there. We could pay 7 000 for a taxi or 2 400 get
35:36a hotel here
35:37I think i'm just tired and I really mean that I just think what do we need more at this
35:42moment in time pet a bed
35:45Okay
35:47A bit of tension tonight between the two of us daddy just kept telling me to shh and I find
35:53it really difficult when
35:54You are just as good at getting information, but you're kind of put in the back burner
35:59So I was struggling and it got a wee bit tense for a moment stress levels are up
36:07Oh, jeez, I've never felt tired of my life
