06:35Mark, look at that one, a horse farm near Turkestan.
06:38I love horses.
06:39You do?
06:40Yeah, do you?
06:42I'm not too keen on horses, but I think Mongolian and Kazakhstan horses,
06:46I think they're quite small stuff.
06:47I might be OK with them, yes.
06:48Joyful horses, yeah.
06:50Coming first, I think we've got the chance to take risks.
06:53Even though it looks further to travel, I feel it's going to be faster,
06:57but I've got nothing to base it on.
06:59It's a gamble.
07:00Yeah, it's OK.
07:01Let's gamble and go through Kazakhstan.
07:02Roll the dice.
07:03Yeah.
07:03We want to get to...
07:05Train station.
07:06To keep the race on track, the in-laws are planning a Kazakh adventure,
07:10heading north-east from Akhtau City by rail.
07:14Oh, sorry, do you speak English?
07:15The train station.
07:16He will take me.
07:19Great, yes, yes, yes.
07:22Oh, thank you.
07:24My name is Janice.
07:26Cengiz, the man.
07:28I'll go in the front with Cengiz.
07:30Lovely.
07:34Welcome, Kazakhstan.
07:36Hey, Akhtau.
07:39Look at this.
07:40It is like the Wild West, Mark.
07:42Look at this.
07:42It is, isn't it, yeah?
07:45Train.
07:46Choo-choo.
07:47Choo-choo.
07:48Caspi-si.
07:49Mm-hmm.
07:50Caspi-si, patom, what's out?
07:52No, we want the station.
07:54Oh, I think you wanted to show us the Caspian station.
07:57I'm getting a bit of a tour here.
07:59I'm not sure about this, Margot.
08:01This is what we like, adventure.
08:04The adventure of a lifetime, Kazakhstan.
08:0990 minutes behind.
08:10There's a train route that goes straight through Kazakhstan.
08:13I'm sick of buses.
08:14Joe and Cush debate their options.
08:17Cengiz, though, it's going to take longer than it's worth, in my opinion.
08:20Uzbekistan looks way shorter.
08:22Our number one priority is the race, so I want to take the faster route regardless.
08:27I can't lie, it is wacky, but I think overnight training will be sick.
08:31An amazing experience.
08:32I want to do Kazakhstan.
08:35Uzbekistan does look more efficient.
08:36It does look quicker.
08:37But I'm not thinking about efficiency.
08:39I'm thinking about the experience.
08:41Oh, well, there's a load down.
08:42Is this travelling through Kazakhstan?
08:45Yes.
08:46Oh, bro.
08:47So from 8.30am tomorrow, we can get from Akhtar to Kizlodra?
08:50One day, five hours.
08:52Oh, wow, OK.
08:5229-hour train.
08:54We're going to cover so much distance by this one overnight.
08:57Let's go, Kazakhstan.
08:58Clinching the argument for Joe.
09:00Bosh.
09:01The best friends have found a cross-country train leaving in the morning,
09:05taking them a hugely beneficial 1,400 kilometres deep into Kazakhstan.
09:1129-hour train is going to be boss.
09:14We are super, super stoked.
09:16Tomorrow, we are covering more distance than the length of the UK.
09:19That could be sick.
09:28Caspian Sea.
09:28Wow.
09:29Caspian Sea.
09:30Well, I've seen the Caspian Sea working well here.
09:33Spanning an area the size of Japan,
09:35the Caspian Sea isn't a sea at all,
09:37but the world's largest lake.
09:40Gorgeous.
09:40Didn't think we'll get to see this, did you?
09:42No, I didn't.
09:44Five nations share its vast shoreline.
09:47Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Russia, Iran and Kazakhstan.
09:53Ah, this is beautiful.
09:58I am liking Kazakhstan so far.
10:00Already get a sense of the pride they've got in their country.
10:03That's BNC.
10:04Caspian Sea, yeah.
10:05Thank you.
10:06Without you, we wouldn't have seen it.
10:09Station.
10:10Choo-choo.
10:11Yes, ticket.
10:12Ticket.
10:13What's he telling you?
10:15Oh, 6.30.
10:17Oh, dear.
10:18We missed it.
10:20So if we'd come straight out, we could have...
10:22Yeah, we might have done it, yeah.
10:248.30 tomorrow.
10:26Yes, OK.
10:28Eyeing up the same long-distance train as Joe and Cush...
10:32It's going to be a long, hard journey, I think, for us.
10:34Just zip it, man.
10:36This journey's going to be a triumph.
10:38They will also need to wait until morning,
10:40losing their lead before they've left Actow.
10:44No matter what the consequences, I'm glad we've done it.
11:02Welcome to Kazak.
11:03Thank you.
11:04Thank you, my friend.
11:05This is Cushney.
11:08Hey, look at these, Mark.
11:108.30 in Actow.
11:13I've just seen Maham Mago.
11:15Did you?
11:15Yeah, they're on the same train.
11:18Gee.
11:19That's mad.
11:20We've closed that gap.
11:21Looks like it's go time.
11:24Wow.
11:25The efficiency.
11:27Leaving on time.
11:28Two teams set off on their long-haul train journey,
11:31bound for the vastness of Kazakhstan.
11:34It's going to be interesting, isn't it?
11:36Ask me that in 29 hours.
11:39First carved over a century ago,
11:42these Russian and Soviet tracks
11:44scurped the sparse Ustyard Plateau.
11:49Outside,
11:50some of the most remote terrain on earth.
11:53Inside,
11:55the carriages are famed for their village-like community,
11:58where the Kazakh spirit can turn strangers into family.
12:06I have no clue what this game is.
12:08I don't know what it's called,
12:08I don't know how it works.
12:09This guy just whips out the board
12:12and started pointing.
12:13Not a single word spoken yet.
12:15Oh!
12:15It wasn't bad.
12:18Oh!
12:20Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
12:21Wait, you can't.
12:22I know, yeah.
12:23I'm probably getting battered right now.
12:25I don't know what the score is,
12:26but it is fun just, like,
12:28interacting with someone in a different way.
12:29Oh, wait.
12:31Oh, see, I think he's shown me.
12:32Oh, my God.
12:33No.
12:33He won second in the championship.
12:35Why?
12:38Oh, my God.
12:40You're playing with a master job.
12:43It's the strangest sausage I've ever seen.
12:45Yes, isn't it?
12:46Very old sausage.
12:47Right, you're going to have to help me with that.
12:49No, no.
12:49Handic spam.
12:51Got to eat it.
12:52Keep your strength up.
12:53I was a vegetarian for 20 years.
12:55I'm becoming a vegetarian again.
12:57Not on this trip you weren't, Vince.
12:59Blokes over there are having vodka with their breakfast.
13:02Do you think we should get some vodka with our breakfast?
13:04I am not having vodka with my breakfast, no.
13:06It must be a tradition,
13:07a Kazakhstan tradition, Mark.
13:09Oh, let's have a vodka.
13:10No, no vodka first thing in the morning.
13:12I'm going to ask if it's traditional, okay?
13:14Okay, you can see.
13:15I'm going to ask them about the culture.
13:17What?
13:18English?
13:19No, no.
13:19No, no.
13:20What was the name?
13:21Margo?
13:22Margo?
13:23Margo.
13:23Margo.
13:24My name's Sultan.
13:25Sultan?
13:26Sultan.
13:27Do you have vodka for breakfast?
13:30Is this usual?
13:42This is a good tradition.
13:46Oh, Mark, have a great time.
13:47Yes.
13:49Hypnotise.
13:50Give me your vodka.
13:52Oh, give me your vodka.
13:55Mark, you don't want to come round and join us?
13:57No.
13:57No?
13:58I'm happy here.
13:59Oh, sorry, sorry.
14:00Sorry.
14:00Is that oil?
14:01I don't drink vodka at all, really.
14:03It's not my drink.
14:04He wants to marry me, does he?
14:06No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
14:08You're a very naughty boy.
14:10I'm on trend, Joe, actually.
14:11I like to look out the window and see the landscape.
14:13Let's go.
14:15It's always.
14:21As two teams advance further into Kazakhstan...
14:26Look at that, look, that is just unreal.
14:28As far as the eye can see, nothing.
14:31I sound silly, but, like, you can see why people think they're at this flat.
14:36Third, to get going, Andrew and Molly set out their plan.
14:41I really want to do a city.
14:43I love the idea of being around people and culture.
14:47Uzbekistan is synonymous with the original Silk Road.
14:50Some of the most beautiful cities in the world.
14:53I think that could be dead fun.
14:55It'll be fun.
14:58Opting for a route east through Uzbekistan,
15:01the pair set their sights on an ancient city, Kiva.
15:07You all right?
15:08Yeah.
15:09OK.
15:09Where's the train?
15:11We're trying to go to Uzbekistan through Benya.
15:16Benya?
15:17Yes.
15:18No, no, no.
15:21Determined to reach Uzbekistan today,
15:23they must first make the five-hour trip to Benya,
15:26aiming for an evening connection across the border.
15:30How much to go to Benya now?
15:32I think we missed a train to Benya,
15:35where we know we would have got a connection to Uzbekistan.
15:39So we're kind of racing the clock a bit,
15:41cos I really want to go to Kiva City.
15:4450?
15:45Molly.
15:46Yes.
15:47Guy's willing to take us for $50.
15:49Yes.
15:49All right, to Benya and we'll be there for 4 o'clock.
15:52Jeez, that'd be great.
15:54I think we take it.
15:55OK.
15:56Go, go, go.
15:57Go, go.
15:58Are you happy with us, yeah?
15:59Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
16:00We need to get there.
16:03No.
16:06No.
16:06No.
16:16100 dollar.
16:17And then his mates obviously got around him
16:19and decided that that wasn't the money to pay.
16:23I don't want 100.
16:25I want 70.
16:27But Molly's currently in negotiations with about 20 men.
16:30That's OK, yeah, then goodbye.
16:31Goodbye.
16:32You all right, Molly, then?
16:33Yeah.
16:33She's holding her own, so, uh, but we just have to wait and see.
16:3770.
16:37Yeah, 70.
16:39Daddy.
16:40He did for 70.
16:42Well done.
16:42That was good.
16:45Right, go.
16:47Stressful.
16:48It means we get the connection tonight.
16:50Which is the main thing.
16:52When's the last time you ever had something like that?
16:53I've never had that before.
16:55Never?
16:55Jesus, Molly.
16:56Well done, kid.
16:57With Andrew and Molly finally on their way to Bennu.
17:01Oh, by the way, we're still in Europe.
17:03We're not in Europe.
17:04We're in Asia, Harrison.
17:05Kazakhstan playing the Euro qualifiers.
17:08Katie and Harrison waste no time in doing the same.
17:11I don't do continents.
17:12I do football confederations.
17:15We're going through Uzbekistan rather than over the top through Kazakhstan.
17:20Immediately, it looks like the direct route.
17:25Chasing the same train as Andrew and Molly,
17:27they look to move quickly across Uzbekistan.
17:31We are 20 hours behind first.
17:34Last leg, we maxed out on experience,
17:36but it did feel like we threw away three lengths worth of hard work.
17:40I just don't want to sign in last again.
17:43We're racing a lot more than the last leg,
17:45but it is about balance.
17:47Whilst we're in these places,
17:49we're going to try and experience as much as possible.
17:51Oh, there's camels.
17:54Oh, my God, there's just camels in the middle of the world.
17:57This is going to be cool.
18:02Right, let's go. Bye-bye.
18:07What time?
18:0948. And it goes to Nukas.
18:11OK.
18:12Yes. Nukas time.
18:13Tickets secured.
18:14Hello!
18:16Hello!
18:17Just like the frontrunners,
18:19the bottom two teams are now neck and neck.
18:22Happy days!
18:24Are you getting this one as well?
18:25Yes.
18:25Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's all sorted.
18:27Yay!
18:28Right, let's get on the train.
18:33There is a race back on.
18:34It's nice to know that we've caught up with someone already.
18:37I'm sure they're not happy to be with us.
18:39It means they've lost their lead on us.
18:42There's no other train we could have got,
18:43so we've got what we needed to do.
18:45I'm not worried about who I can see.
18:47Yeah.
18:47I'm worried about who I can see.
18:48Who I can see, exactly.
18:49And if people are around us, that means we're in the game.
18:52Mm-hmm.
18:53Would you have some bread?
18:54I will have some of them, I say.
18:56It's a bit like Jesus bread and water, isn't it?
19:00I am starving.
19:02Got no water, no food.
19:04But what we've been doing here is eat when you can
19:07because you don't know when you're going to eat next.
19:09Yeah.
19:09The problem is, it's not that hard to find food.
19:12So every time I eat, I've been eating like I'm not going to eat
19:15for the next 48 hours.
19:16But realistically, it's the next four to eight hours.
19:20LAUGHTER
19:36Don't drink the water.
19:38Thanks!
19:39LAUGHTER
19:39It's not exactly the Orient Express.
19:42LAUGHTER
19:44A big clamour.And
19:47there I can try it. And
19:51I ask you for a minute. And
19:55you have to be aware of your teeth. Well,
20:07now, where did she get out? Him is
20:12living? What did
20:12too.
20:13As the 29-hour train pulls two teams further across Kazakhstan,
20:18their rival two teams have made it to Uzbekistan.
20:22Got a train ticket sorted for tomorrow morning out of Nukas.
20:25I'm very much looking forward to getting to explore Uzbekistan a bit.
20:30A nation now dominated by youth,
20:33with 60% of its citizens under 30.
20:36Yet beneath that energy lies a history stretching back
20:39more than two millennia, with some of Central Asia's oldest settlements.
20:45How old is this cemetery then, Katie?
20:48Think of old and then think, like, even older than that.
20:52Just outside Nukas, one of those ancient sites still remains.
20:57Mizda Khan, a sacred necropolis in use for 22 centuries
21:02as a burial ground for local communities, prophets and royalty.
21:07We're getting into someone's grave.
21:09It's kind of creepy, man.
21:12What the...?
21:13Wow.
21:15Even the brickwork on it, like, it's just...
21:17you've got hundreds of different types of bricks in it,
21:19and they've then been put together to create a pattern.
21:22Yeah, it must have been such a faff.
21:24I really want one.
21:27Will you build a building for me when I die?
21:29Must be joking.
21:32It's just cool to go somewhere that's so untravelled.
21:35Part of a world I never thought I'd go to.
21:37I know we're obviously racing this leg
21:39to try and get out of fourth place,
21:41but it's been nice to stop for a second, isn't it?
21:43I'd like to get an appreciation of what Uzbekistan's about.
21:48Yeah, thousands of years over where we're stood.
21:50Some of them date back to 400 BC.
21:53None of the dinosaurs are out of town.
21:55Oh, my God.
21:57Are you serious?
22:00Where's the ticket office?
22:02Sorry!
22:03On the other side of town, at Nuku's Station...
22:07Sorry.
22:07Do you really buy a ticket?
22:09Ticket?
22:10Andrew and Molly have their own plans to explore Uzbekistan.
22:14I am especially looking forward to Kiva City.
22:18I'd love to see the culture rather than going out to nature.
22:21Just more daddy things.
22:23But, yeah, that'd be lovely, actually.
22:25We're looking to get to Kiva City.
22:27When is the next train?
22:29All right, thank you.
22:32Thank you.
22:33OK.
22:34Having missed another train...
22:35We seem to keep getting stuck.
22:38...they search for alternative transport.
22:40Hello.
22:41English.
22:42English.
22:43Is there a bus to Kiva?
22:44Bus, no.
22:46Taxi, taxi.
22:47Taxi, talk a taxi.
22:48I don't know what to do.
22:49I don't know.
22:49Sorry, just let us stop.
22:51I need to do something.
22:53I want to enjoy today.
22:55Sorry, just one sec.
22:56I don't like having to pay for another taxi.
22:58But I don't want to be stuck at a train station.
23:01I really don't know what to do.
23:02You can see it from the map, the distances we're covering.
23:04It's going to be a long leg, a lot of travel.
23:07I think you could get lost very, very quickly in this leg.
23:09I'm beginning to realise that Molly has the ability to be confident.
23:13But at times, she doesn't have that inner self-belief.
23:17F***ing stupid, Kiva.
23:20Um...
23:21So, my job is to remind her that there's a time to put the skates on.
23:25OK.
23:25Sorry for being a bit indecisive.
23:27I'm just overthinking, probably.
23:29I'm going to have to make a call.
23:31Yeah.
23:33Kiva...
23:34Kiva City?
23:35So, two?
23:36Yes.
23:37Yes.
23:37OK, OK, yes.
23:42Molly's Kiva City dream has cost them another taxi ride.
23:47Good call, yeah?
23:48I think it's our call.
23:49I don't know if it's a good one.
23:51You all right?
23:51I'm just kind of...
23:53It's true.
23:55At least we should get there in a couple of hours and enjoy Kiva.
23:58Yeah.
24:00As father and daughter make the last 190km push to Kiva,
24:05two teams are still racing along the rails through Kazakhstan's Kizilorda region.
24:10An open desert step where settlements are scarce and the horizon seems never-ending.
24:17Look at that.
24:19Bit of flatland.
24:20Oh, my God.
24:21You see that?
24:21It's a rock.
24:24How do they survive on this landscape?
24:27To start off with it, it was actually quite a variety of terrain.
24:30Mm-hm.
24:30But it's now just flattened out into a vast steppe.
24:34I have not seen one tree since 8 o'clock this morning.
24:38Wake me up if anything interesting happens.
24:40I think you're pretty safe.
24:50On the edge of the Karakum Desert lies Kiva.
24:57A gateway for Silk Road traders to rest and recover
25:01before facing the vast sands of Central Asia.
25:04Within it lies Itchen Kala, a maze of narrow streets and blue-tiled minarets,
25:11enclosed by towering clay walls, still perfectly preserved today.
25:17Oh, look at this, Molly. Wow.
25:20You OK?
25:21Just a bit shut up.
25:23I just feel like we've taxied this whole...
25:26Yeah, I know, I know, I know, I know.
25:27..journey and...
25:28Andrew and Molly's city stopover has cost more than a day and a half's
25:33race budget on taxis alone.
25:35A modern reminder of just how remote this outpost is to reach.
25:40Kiva.
25:41Yep, it's just lovely.
25:42Eventually got here, but...
25:45Honestly, very deflated.
25:47Very deflated.
25:48Kind of...
25:49Annoyed.
25:53Of course, there's a lot of money to get here.
25:55And we're going to have to spend a lot of money to get out of here,
25:58more than likely.
26:00Or...
26:01We just sacrificed the race.
26:04It's something I wanted to do, and...
26:08It's not worked out very well.
26:11So a bit of guilt with that.
26:16You all right?
26:18I'm not fed up.
26:20Sorry.
26:22Yeah, do you want to...
26:23We go for a walk?
26:24Have...
26:25Have a bit of...
26:26Us time.
26:27I'd love to go for a walk.
26:28All right, kid, yeah?
26:28Like that a lot.
26:29You OK?
26:29Yeah.
26:30Go on a walk.
26:34It is stunning, isn't it?
26:36Kind of like Aladdin, that kind of...
26:38It is, it is absolutely Aladdin.
26:40Yeah.
26:41Just look at it, it's amazing.
26:42It's crazy.
26:42It is crazy.
26:44I don't really know why I'm upset.
26:46I'm trying to prove to myself that I'm independent.
26:49But I really do overthink things.
26:52I'm always kind of going,
26:53Oh, could I have done that better?
26:54Could I have gotten it for cheaper?
26:56Where's the best place to see it, Molly?
26:58Up on the walls, no?
27:02Oh, wow.
27:05That's beautiful.
27:08I wish I could stand on my decisions with pride.
27:13Beautiful, beautiful spot, man.
27:15Amazing.
27:16But I'm scared of negatively affecting people.
27:19And with this race, it's daddy.
27:21I don't want to be disappointed.
27:24Oh, it's lovely, actually.
27:26I probably need to trust my gut.
27:28I know that is within my power.
27:31So, I think this is what I need to do from now on in.
27:36It is beautiful.
27:37Happy we did it.
27:38Good call, all right, Molly?
27:42But the thing that I always find is that, like,
27:44the sun goes down and it always comes back up again.
27:47I know.
27:47Yeah, no matter what your day is like, at least.
27:49It'll come up tomorrow, yeah.
27:50That's the thing.
27:51I think that's what we need to think about.
27:53We need to think about today.
27:54It's kind of a nice round-up.
27:57Tomorrow will be a better day.
27:59Yeah.
28:05The noise.
28:07Oh, look at that colour.
28:08That's beautiful.
28:09It is lovely, isn't it?
28:11In Kazakhstan, after more than a day's travel...
28:14This us, Kuzlodha?
28:16Yo, Joe, is this us?
28:17Yes.
28:17Joe.
28:19Oh.
28:20Joe and Kush and Mark and Margot alight in Kizilorda,
28:24more than halfway to the checkpoint.
28:27We need a hotel.
28:30Should we try and find our fella?
28:31See if he's here.
28:33To bed in with Kazakh culture...
28:35Bigzat, my name.
28:36Bigzat?
28:37Kush.
28:38Lovely to meet you, my friend.
28:39Joe and Kush have arranged a homestay
28:41with local businessman Bigzat and his family.
28:45Wow.
28:45We've got a very nice place.
28:47Welcome to...
28:48Thank you.
28:49...my house.
28:50This is my family.
28:53Hello.
28:54This is my father, my mother.
28:56Assalamualaikum.
28:57Waalaikumussalam.
28:59Waalaikumussalam.
29:00In Kazakh tradition, the national dish of Beshbermak
29:04is served on special occasions.
29:06It's sharing platter, a symbol of unity and hospitality.
29:12If you have a family, you will have a lot of food.
29:18God.
29:19God.
29:19God.
29:20God.
29:20God.
29:24That's so good.
29:25Mmm.
29:26Mmm.
29:26Tastes amazing.
29:28Sport?
29:30Oh, sport?
29:32Me, basketball.
29:34And, of course, Thai boxing.
29:36Thai boxing?
29:38Thai boxing.
29:39Judo.
29:39Judo.
29:40Judo.
29:40Whoa.
29:41Judo minus a ball.
29:43Judo minus a ball.
29:53Judo minus a ball.
29:55Along with me and my older brother.
29:57And she met my dad slash step-dad Matt.
30:01He was a fighter.
30:02He's coached me and my brother for as long as I can remember.
30:06Muay Thai.
30:07Thai boxing.
30:07Thai boxing.
30:08As a kid, I remember doing pads in the garden.
30:11That's a big one.
30:12He'd do round the pads with us and then make us do press-ups while the other one does the
30:16pads.
30:17Even though we're not blood, he never once shied away from treating me as his own.
30:26So, growing up with him as someone strong to look up to, it means the world.
30:32Your medals.
30:32Your medals.
30:36Bro.
30:37What are you saying?
30:38Champion.
30:40Number one.
30:41Champion.
30:42Goodbye.
30:44It's a language barrier, but I can sort of relate to the journey that they've grown up with.
30:49Watching their dad and being inspired to then pursue the same passion.
30:54Hey!
30:55You've done this.
30:56You know Muay Thai.
30:57I think this guy's got a lovely family.
30:58It's so lovely all of us.
30:59It's so sweet.
31:00Ha ha ha!
31:08Ha ha!

34:57Bir bost to tell him.
35:01I really wish I could
35:03sort of show him
35:05who I am now.
35:07Because when you're 14 it's like
35:09I didn't know who I was
35:10and I was still a child
35:13and I made a lot of mistakes
35:15when I was younger and I feel like
35:17if I could sort of show him
35:19what I've learned.
35:32Losing Kush's dad, it was so sudden.
35:37I think experiencing
35:39them hardships
35:41like so unexpectedly
35:43it has affected Kush's personality.
35:45He wants
35:47to stay in control of himself.
35:49You know, he's never drank
35:51he's never got drunken before
35:52doesn't smoke
35:54doesn't do anything
35:56without checking safety twice
35:59because it was such a shock
36:00I guess he doesn't want
36:01anything like that to happen again.
36:04Thank you.
36:06I'm very grateful
36:07we're doing the race together.
36:11Like, we can literally
36:13go to each other for anything.
36:14We just need to get to Dirk, Stan.
36:15Hopefully we can have some work,
36:17keeping the budget healthy.
36:19I'm always there for Kush
36:20and I know he's always there
36:22for me as well.
36:24Oh, perfect.
36:26Sick. Thank you.
36:29Goodbye.
36:29Goodbye.
36:32Check the jobs directory.
36:34There's a job saving food
36:36at this quasi.
36:37That looks sick.
36:39That would be boss.
36:41as Joe and Kush
36:42push on south in search of work.
36:47Across the border in Uzbekistan.
36:49It's tight now.
36:50I don't know how you're going to do this, boy.
36:52Andrew and Molly are finally
36:53on their seven-hour train journey to Bukhara.
36:56I don't know how you're...
37:00Batman's on top.
37:05Heading the same way.
37:06How is it?
37:07This is scary, but kind of cool.
37:09This is what I've been wanting to do
37:11this whole time.
37:12Katie and Harrison.
37:14I feel like this is an out-of-body experience
37:17looking at a desert outside of a sleeper train.
37:19Yeah.
37:20I just never thought I'd be here.
37:22Really pleased with how we're racing so far.
37:24we spent a good day in Nukas
37:26but then got out of there as soon as we reasonably could.
37:29And now we're nine hours on the move to Bukhara.
37:31He couldn't ask for much more, really.
37:34My name is Faisullo.
37:36Faisullo? Harrison.
37:37What's your name?
37:38Harrison.
37:38Harrison, yes.
37:39Nice to meet you.
37:40Katie, where are you from?
37:42Where did you come from?
37:45We're from...
37:48Manchester.
37:49Manchester United.
37:52Ah, yeah.
37:53Ah, yeah.
37:54Kuzanov.
37:55Ah, Manchester City.
37:56Yeah, so there's Bekerson, the centre-back.
37:58He must be quite good for Manchester City.
37:59Yeah, he's good.
38:00Manchester City.
38:02If you said to me five years ago
38:03that you'd be travelling across the world
38:05and seeing these places,
38:07I wouldn't have believed you.
38:08I'm obviously a world away from home.
38:12But I don't feel it.
38:14Before the race,
38:15I certainly wouldn't be going up speaking to people.
38:18But I think it's become a second nature now.
38:19It is very lovely to meet you two.
38:22You have been very kind.
38:24It's the bit that I kind of dread,
38:26but it's always the experience I get the most out of.
38:29I come away thinking just how wonderful everyone is.
38:32This is a gift from me to you.
38:33It is very precious to me
38:34because it's my first achievement in Nukkust.
38:37Oh, no, no, no, no.
38:39You sure?
38:41Ah-ha.
38:42Ah-ha.
38:43It's a medal.
38:44Ah, half marathon.
38:46Ah.
38:47Running.
38:48I have run a half marathon too in Manchester.
38:51I can send you my medal if you would like it.
38:55My name is Faisal Love.
38:56Faisal Love.
38:57My name is Harrison.
39:01We are friends.
39:07Hello.
39:09They're lovely.
39:10Aren't they beautiful?
39:12Would you like to get on one ride?
39:13Not particularly.
39:16In Kentau, just outside the city of Turkestan,
39:21Mark and Margo have made it to the horse farm,
39:25run by Kularnish and his family.
39:29OK.
39:31One job you've got to do is shovel shit.
39:34This is very ripe.
39:37Mocking in in exchange for bed and board.
39:39Give me a wheelbarrow.
39:41I'm fine.
39:41Absolutely fine.
39:43Do-do-do-do-do-do.
39:45I love wheelbarrows.
39:47Essential to survival, horses have long sustained life on the steppe.
39:52As transport, the source of kumas, a fermented mare's milk,
39:56and as a vital food source.
39:59Mum loves horses.
40:00My grandad loved horses.
40:02Oh, gosh, your grandad was a...
40:04My great grandad.
40:05My great grandad was a horse trader, wasn't he?
40:06Yes.
40:07Yes.
40:09So, what will we do with the horses?
40:12Meat.
40:13Oh, they're meat?
40:14They're meat.
40:14You eat these.
40:15Oh, Lord.
40:18My dream has turned into a nightmare.
40:21Good taste of reality, isn't it?
40:25When I thought about the Kazakh horses,
40:27I just thought of them running wild, excitedly over the fields or something.
40:31Hello.
40:33Are we all right?
40:34I didn't really associate it with the reality of it's a major food source
40:39and that is reality of the way of life.
40:42I want to be open-minded, but sometimes my mind just doesn't want to go there.
40:47Poor fella.
40:50I'm not as squeamish as Margot is.
40:53It's a part of human life, isn't it? We eat animals.
40:57Light's gone, hasn't it, now?
40:58Right, let's go.
41:02I'm here, am I?
41:03I'm at the table.
41:05There we go.
41:06To welcome their guests, the family has prepared a traditional meal.
41:10It's like a banquet.
41:11I feel like a king, Margot.
41:15Go, go, go, go.
41:16Oh, gosh.
41:19Oh, thank you very much.
41:21Look at that.
41:22Is that a goat?
41:25Ram's head.
41:27Ram's head.
41:28Ram's head.
41:29For guests of honour.
41:30Wow, look at that.
41:33Oh, Lord.
41:35What is this?
41:36Horse meat of sausage.
41:39Oh!
41:40It might feel impolite not to accept it.
41:43OK, I'll try a bit of that.
41:45OK, do something.
41:47Mmm.
41:49Do you like it?
41:50Just taste of succulent lamb, yes.
41:54I'm enjoying this route.
41:55I am enjoying it.
41:56But it's not been everything I'd hoped for.
41:59It was a bit of a surprise, really.
42:02I don't know why.
42:03I think my fairytale thinking got me into another fine mess.
42:08And what's that?
42:10I don't know, it's meat.
42:12Mark, this is why I brought you on the race.
42:15I'm taking one for the team.
42:17Hi, hello.
42:18Hello.
42:19They are all happy to see you in our home.
42:23Oh, she gave me such a hug.
42:24She gave me a hug.
42:27Thank you.
42:29Thank you.
42:30A wonderful family.
42:31It's been a real joy meeting them.
42:33This has raised my spirits.
42:35We have gifts for you.
42:37Oh, my goodness.
42:41Oh, my God.
42:46Someone like how I would imagine people from the ex-Soviet Union to be.
42:50Yeah.
42:53You always see images in the West of them being very dour and grumpy.
42:58This is not the case here.
42:59Neither.
43:01Yes.
43:01These are vibrant, exciting, lovely people with big hearts.
43:08This is my wife.
43:09This is Julia.
43:10The brochure that I carry with me, the celebration of Julia's life.
43:14So beautiful.
43:15She is beautiful.
43:16She is very, very beautiful.
43:17It really is an eye-opener of how we should actually treat fellow humans.
43:21Amazing.
43:22The Kazakh way.
43:24Your treasures.
43:25Absolute treasures.
43:26Thank you.
43:27Thank you very much.
43:28Night, night, night, night.
43:30Isn't that lovely?
43:32That was an incredible night.
43:34It was.
43:35Not what I expected.
43:36For a while there, back at the farm, I was like...
43:39I know you were very down, weren't you, about the farm.
43:41I was...
43:42Yeah, but...
43:43They've opened their hearts and home to us absolutely.
43:45But you could feel it.
43:46It was so genuine, wasn't it?
43:48This homestay, it hasn't been about horses.
43:50It's been about humans.
43:50You know, families.
43:51Yeah.
43:52In communities.
43:53And that's what's been so wonderful about it.
43:54Absolutely.
44:00Forty kilometres south, in the centre of Turkestan.
44:04Getting ourselves dressed up.
44:05For the first time in a long time.
44:07I like a smart, casual fit, you know what I mean?
44:10Joe and Kush are bolstering their funds with a shift at a luxury events venue.
44:16I wonder what the celebration is for.
44:18Today's celebration is called...
44:20Today's celebration is called...
44:20Today's celebration is called...
44:21A circumcision party.
44:22Sick.
44:29The Kazakh tradition of sundet toy.
44:34A celebration of every boy's journey towards manhood.
44:38Oh, these gifts are lavish for a...
44:40This is a really big deal.
44:43And an opportunity for families to display their wealth by spending big on lavish banquets and entertainers.
44:51I've never been anywhere like this.
44:53My teeth was in a church.
44:54It was quiet.
44:55It was family and friends.
44:56And these guys, they're getting handed wads of cash.
45:10Oh my god.
45:11There's an eagle?
45:13Wow, look at that.
45:14Imagine getting an eagle in your party, bro.
45:16That would be lit.
45:17Hello.
45:18Nice to meet you.
45:19My name is Nazgud.
45:20Nazgud?
45:20Yes.
45:21Kush.
45:21It's nice to meet you.
45:22Your eyes are so beautiful.
45:25Thank you.
45:27I love the outfits.
45:29Okay.
45:29Thank you.
45:31We will watch, okay?
45:32We will watch.
45:33Yes, okay.
45:33Goodbye.
45:34Bye-bye.
45:36Your eyes are so beautiful.
45:39Give me one minute.
45:46This job has been lively, shall I say.
45:50We wanted that randomness.
45:52We wanted to experience new things.
45:54I think this has ticked both of them boxes.
45:57I don't know.
45:58I was just blown away that this type of thing is happening around the world.
46:02Like, yeah, it was a celebration of these two lads getting a circumcision.
46:06But I feel like it was, it uplifted everyone in that moment.
46:10We were like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
46:13What did you say?
46:14I said, come find me after you finish dancing.
46:16Sick.
46:17Sick.
46:18Confidence.
46:19Very easy.
46:20This is the best job.
46:22Oh, my God.
46:23It's just mine and Joe's calling.
46:24You know what I mean?
46:25We've been talking to everyone.
46:26Everything's so nice.
46:29It's really made me so thankful that I listened to Joe and we decided to go through Kazakhstan.
46:33I mean, it's such a beautiful country.
46:35It's got so much heart.
46:36I'm trying to learn to enjoy the moment a lot more.
46:38Trying not to think so much about the future or the past.
46:40You just got to take it all in your stride and enjoy it as much as you can.
46:43And today's been so enjoyable.
46:45Look at that.
46:46Look at that.
46:46Have you seen them, was it?
46:48She's fine.
46:50She's fine.
46:51She's fine.
47:05Oh, Harrison.
47:06Hariton, you look bonita.
47:10Orange is your colour.
47:12Hariton last night...
47:13Do you want to get moving?
47:14We've been racing pretty hard this leg.
47:16We do have time. We can go and have a wander around.
47:20Katie and Harrison are exploring Bukhara.
47:25Another key stop on the Silk Road,
47:27it was a centre for Islamic Theology.
47:30Unlike the stillness of Kiva,
47:32it remains a city where ancient madrasas,
47:35centres of higher learning,
47:37sit alongside a modern working city.
47:40A stunning mosque.
47:42Incredible, isn't it?
47:43At its centre, the 500-year-old Kalyan Mosque.
47:48So have you got a scarf?
47:53Incredible. What a bit of craftsmanship.
47:56You don't see that on a new build in Manchester, yeah.
47:59Its grand arches and geometric detail
48:02designed to evoke a sense of harmony and balance.
48:06Katie, you stand right in the middle.
48:10The symmetry of that.
48:11Maybe that's why you like it so much here,
48:14cos everything is symmetrical.
48:16It is.
48:18So we're going to get some food?
48:20Yeah.
48:21I'm starving.
48:25It's a little bit of luxury, isn't it?
48:27Very peaceful.
48:29I wouldn't have done this a few years ago.
48:31Yeah, you used to be really boring,
48:33so it's just good that you're not letting yourself miss out
48:36on these types of experiences.
48:39Really boring's a bit harsh.
48:41You're quite boring.
48:43Without the race,
48:45I wouldn't have allowed myself to go travelling
48:47to see these things in person.
48:48It's not in the plan I set out for myself
48:50at 17, 18 years old.
48:54My priorities in life have been to save money,
48:57get on the property ladder as soon as I can.
48:59If that's all sorted,
49:01then I think it takes away a lot of the worries and stresses
49:03that I saw our family grew up with.
49:06Well, God.
49:07We struggled a little bit financially.
49:09There was a lot of moving.
49:11I think I've lived in maybe 14 different houses.
49:14I've loaned money to my family
49:15from the age of 16 since I started working.
49:19Kind of like the Bank of Harrison
49:20rather than Bank of Mum and Dad.
49:24The stresses of financially not always having enough,
49:28that's what shaped me to be
49:30so financially motivated and secure.
49:33But I think my mindset on that
49:34is definitely starting to shift.
49:35I've got a bill here.
49:37Is it as much as you thought?
49:40Service charge.
49:42What?
49:42Service charge.
49:44Well, it was very good service, to be fair.
49:46It was.
49:47Right.
49:48Well, the Taurus Information Centre over there
49:50get taxis there to Zamin.
49:53Yeah.
49:54Poised just 430 kilometres from Zamin...
49:57Sorry.
49:58Do you have any English?
49:59The two teams in Bukhara
50:01set about securing onward transport.
50:04We are trying to get to Zamin National Park.
50:09To strike out towards the checkpoint.
50:13Do you know what I mean?
50:14How much?
50:15$100.
50:16No.
50:17We are on a small budget.
50:19Is there a...
50:20We don't care about a good car.
50:22We have cheap.
50:24No?
50:24No.
50:26Finish.
50:26Low, low, low.
50:27No.
50:28Finish.
50:28Okay.
50:29Give me one minute.
50:30Okay, thank you.
50:33It's a killer on the budget.
50:35But we are last.
50:37We need to catch up.
50:38If you're happy with spending it, then that's fine.
50:41Yeah?
50:42We go to Zamin?
50:43Yeah?
50:43Okay.
50:45It's very clean glass, to be fair.
50:47Oh, God, it's gorgeous in here.
50:50As Katie and Harrison, as well as Andrew and Molly,
50:53plot a route east through Uzbekistan...
50:56The priority for today is to cross the border into Uzbekistan.
51:00The two teams in Kazakhstan are ready to approach from the north.
51:04I feel like the tactics are quickest, for sure.
51:06I think we should just try and flag one down here.
51:09Once across the border, it's a final push to Zamin,
51:13as the routes converge and the pack comes together.
51:17We're going to Uzbekistan.
51:19So, fasten your seatbelt.
51:21We'll be in checkpoint in no time.
51:25Wrong way, bro.
51:27He's taken a wrong turn.
51:28He's been told to make a U-turn, but he keeps thinking,
51:30and he's smarter.
51:32I don't know if it's Uzbekistan, this way.
51:36He doesn't know he's gone.
51:38Oh, my days.
51:39I presume he knows it's the Uzbekistan border.
51:46It should be fine.
51:52We'll get there.
51:53Don't stress.
52:02High in the mountains on Uzbekistan's eastern edge,
52:07the fifth checkpoint.
52:09Zamin.
52:13Very dramatic, isn't it?
52:14You like a national park, don't you?
52:16No, I do.
52:17Sort of Uzbekistan version of Wales.
52:20Poised and ready to go, the national park opens,
52:24and the teams embark on the final push by taxi.
52:28This is the bit that I love, but it also stresses me out.
52:31I can't wait to get going.
52:33Get me out of this taxi and ready to run.
52:35Within the Zaman Mountains, the Sufa Plateau,
52:39known for its distinct flat, high plains
52:42and cool, thin mountain air.
52:45Thank you.
52:46Thank you.
52:50Find the amphitheatre and the way for the instructions.
52:53The amphitheatre.
52:58No idea where it could be.
53:01Amphitheatre.
53:02Is it a man-made amphitheatre?
53:05Over there, look.
53:10Looks to be that up there.
53:11Yeah, that's in the opera house kind of thing.
53:13Zaman Amphitheatre,
53:15standing nearly 2,500 metres above sea level.
53:20It's a walk, is it?
53:24Jesus, it's dry up here.
53:25Yeah, it's weird, eh?
53:27You OK?
53:28Just a sec.
53:29My legs are wobbly.
53:31The altitude has just killed me.
53:35Keep going.
53:35Doing well.
53:36Don't go too fast, Mark.
53:37I did take my inhaler.
53:38I'm working very slowly.
53:39I might have another go with the inhaler.
53:42I'm in no physical state to run.
53:46Do you want some water?
53:47No, I'm OK with water, mate.
53:48You got hearts pounding, but we're all right.
53:53Altitude running is not what I'm meant to do.
53:56Almost there.
53:58Seating.
53:59Stage.
54:00Yeah, amphitheatre.
54:03Well, an impressive structure.
54:07Travel by cable car to the lower station.
54:11Travel to the cable car!
54:14I love an echo.
54:15Yes.
54:16That's a cable car.
54:18Cable car.
54:20Oh, wait.
54:21That is a cable car.
54:22Oh, it's over there.
54:23I can see it.
54:23I can see the sea lines down.
54:25Yeah, cable car looks to be here.
54:28I think we're getting the wrong way, Marko.
54:30If it's far to go, I'm just going to have to have a rest.
54:33Get in front of all the cute people.
54:34Come on.
54:37So, I'm there.
54:38Two people.
54:39140,000.
54:40Just keep the picket.
54:41Thank you.
54:41Thank you.
54:43Get on.
54:44Get on.
54:44Get on.
54:49Oh.
54:53Oh, my God.
54:56Oh, look at this.
54:57This is crazy.
54:58Jesus Christ.
54:59Oh, my.
55:00Oh, my God.
55:03Hollywood going vertical.
55:05Woods.
55:05Oh, my God.
55:07Maduna.
55:07It's insane.
55:09This is sick.
55:11So nice to see a hill.
55:18Where do you think the other teams are?
55:20Imagine if they're just in the cave.
55:22It's going to be hilarious.
55:24That'd be so good.
55:26Oh, my days.
55:27Wow.
55:30Oh, right.
55:33Find the Checkpoint Hotel and sign in.
55:36Hotel.
55:37Ah, hotel.
55:37What's this?
55:38Hotel is?
55:39It's the town hotel.
55:41Oh, there's two.
55:43Checkpoint Hotel is a little bit vague, isn't it?
55:47That looks like a hotel, no?
55:49Let's try it.
55:52I have no idea if that's the Checkpoint Hotel.
55:54Yeah, this looks nice.
56:00Perception.
56:00Perception.
56:03Better be it.
56:07I don't see a book.
56:11I think it's the wrong hotel.
56:14Welcome to Zemindor Resort.
56:16Please sign in.
56:18I'm 33.
56:20Oh, what the hell?
56:22Oh, yeah.
56:23What?
56:24We're back.
56:24We're back.
56:25We're back.
56:26Oh, my God.
56:28Oh, sign.
56:29No.
56:31Fuck.
57:00I'm so happy to be back in first place.
57:02Pakistan was the quicker route, but I'm still not regretting going through Kazakhstan.
57:06We have had the best experiences.
57:08One.
57:09Hopefully, we're going to stay consistent near the top and then on the last leg, do that little
57:13sprint to the end.
57:15Third!
57:19Third time being third, but very pleased about it.
57:22thought we were not going to do as well as what we did.
57:25Oh, Marlon.
57:26That was a tough week.
57:27That was very tough.
57:28That was a tough week, Kate.
57:29Pure, utter relief.
57:30Journey to Kiva kind of nearly broke us.
57:33I really struggled this leg, and I'm so pleased everything worked.
57:36Yeah.
57:38That's the entrance, just there.
57:39Up on top?
57:40Yeah.
57:41I'm not walking any further until you're certain we've got it.
57:43We're just going up for fire escape.
57:45Come on up, Margot.
57:47Good evening, please.
57:48Sign in.
57:50Yes, we're fourth.
57:50Fourth.
57:51Yeah.
57:52Well, look at that.
57:52Katie and Harrison are back in the lead again.
57:55Katie and Harrison have had it a lot of times.
57:57Move over.
57:58Let someone share the throne.
58:00Boring.
58:02We've been fourth before.
58:03We're up four, three, two, one.
58:04We're going forward.
58:05We're choosing better routes.
58:06No more side quests.
58:07No more side quests.
58:08To see horses.
58:09Let's do it.
58:15Margot, the car coming.
58:19Let's go.
58:20Yes, let's go.
58:21This leg, I'm letting Monica go over.
58:23Your daughter, she did so a great job.
58:26Margot and I are fourth, and we have got to race.
58:28This could be a white-knuckle ride.
58:31Oh, I'm so stressed.
58:33I hate to see you in such a negative space.
58:36We just can't give up.
58:37Oh, my God.
58:38I'm on a horse in Kyrgyzstan.
58:42This isn't real.
58:43I feel like I'm in a painting.
58:44Woo!
58:46Woo!
58:47Woo!
58:49Woo!
58:50Woo!
59:19I'm on a horse in Kyrgyzstan.
59:20I'm on a horse in Kyrgyzstan.
59:20I'm on a horse in Kyrgyzstan.
59:20I'm on a horse in Kyrgyzstan.
