- Season 1
The contestants are in the final few hours of building their bridges. Tensions run high as both teams edge closer to the island and the jackpot - it's neck and neck as they build with fury to be first to finish. Which team will make it to the money first? And who will leave with the jackpot? Presented by AJ Odudu.
One of the teams is dealing with a betrayal after one of their own sabotages the build in exchange for some of the prize fund. The team's chances of being first to the money have never seemed so far out of reach. Luckily, there's a lifeline around the corner, as both teams are offered the chance to bid for a carpenter to join their ranks. But they're not bidding in money - they're bidding in the number of team members to go home.
Fractures are starting to show in both camps and the long hours, hard graft and difficult conditions are taking their toll, even on the strongest members of the teams. North Beach decide now is the time for a reconnaissance mission and set out to their rivals' beach in the dead of night.
As the two sides begin to make good progress, host AJ Odudu presents them with a curveball - any team member can put themselves forward to switch beaches. At least one person from each group must move to their rivals, and if no one volunteers, then it's up to the team leaders who goes.
The halfway point arrives but both teams are far from reaching their target. South Beach's bridge has been destroyed by rough tides, while the North Beach contestants have fallen apart by tension and in-fighting. Just when it seems all hope is lost, Aldo Kane offers the teams a lifeline in the form of a tug-of-war challenge, which sees them literally fighting over 100ft of bridge in the hope of pulling it back to their own beach.
The contestants finally discover they are not alone - this is a race, and only member of the team that reaches the island first is in with a shot at the £200,000 prize. With both groups way behind schedule, will this new information spur them on? Meanwhile, moles David and Alex return to dish the dirt, and two members of each team face a dilemma - do they take 10 anchors back to the build or secretly pocket £10,000?
The teams are three days into their challenge and are forced to appoint leaders in the hope of kick-starting their bridge builds. One member of each group is also given the chance to be a mole. Who will feel the pressure and who will stop at nothing in the race to the money?
The return of the reality challenge in which 16 strangers gather in the paradise islands of Ha Long Bay, Vietnam and compete to be the first to get their hands on a £200,000 jackpot. Split into two team, they must race to build a bridge over 1,000 feet of water in just 12 days to reach the cash held on top of Fortune Rock. The question is, will whoever reaches the money first choose to share it with their team-mates?
There is nasty shock as the group members wake up to discover that former team-mate Luke has sabotaged their progress in exchange for £10,000 from the prize fund. Zac finds it hard to believe that his best friend would do such a thing and considers throwing in the towel, while newly elected leader Rowan is in the firing line. In the most testing of final days, can the team pull together, rebuild the bridge and reach the money?
The team wakes up to the realisation that more than half of the bridge still needs building - and that they will likely lose a team member too. With rumours spreading through the camp that a splinter group are plotting to vote someone out, it soon transpires that the whispers are part of an intricately calculated game plan to crown a new leader.
Newcomers GB Para Powerlifter Ross and wellness coach Susie must make a dramatic decision about which of their teammates loses their place in camp. With one less person in the team, tempers fray and the bridge build falls even further behind schedule. A flare brings the promise of a luxury banquet, but with it the cost of an essential day of building, which causes a major rift.
Plumber Luke and hotel entertainer Maura return from their overnight mission with a huge secret that could jeopardise the bridge build. As bad weather and dubious construction methods hamper the team's progress, Zac's leadership is called into question. With the team way behind schedule, two new arrivals make a surprise entry into the camp.
In the first episode, the 12 get to know each other, including Billie, the daughter of TV presenter Trisha Goddard, Covid-19 survivor Tara, and the oldest member of the team, 60-year-old Sly. The team attempt to come up with a plan to build the bridge, but tempers quickly fray over who should lead the group.
