This time, four brave celebrities, each paired with a trusty teammate, will embark on an epic journey from Africa to the Arctic, crossing 24 countries.
With no planes, smartphones, or internet to help them navigate, they'll need to rely on their wits, charm, and sheer determination to outpace their competitors and win the ultimate adventure.
In the first series of Celebrity Race Across the World, Alex Beresford and his dad Noel triumphed over All Saints singer Melanie Blatt and her mother Helene, McFly drummer Harry Judd and his mum Emma, and former British F4 Racing Driver Billy Monger and his sister Bonny.
Who will be the next to conquer this gruelling challenge?
Let’s dive into the rumoured line-up for this thrilling new series!
First up, it’s none other than model and presenter Kelly Brook, who is reportedly set to join the race with her husband Jeremy Parisi.
The glamorous couple, known for their globetrotting escapades shared on social media, will be swapping luxury holidays for budget travel and gritty challenges.
“Kelly has travelled all over the world with Jeremy – and she’s really competitive, so she’ll be brilliant TV,” a source told The Sun.
We can’t wait to see how they handle the pressure!
Joining Kelly and Jeremy in this high-stakes adventure is Ted Lasso star Kola Bokinni, a self-confessed superfan of the show.
His athletic prowess and team spirit could give him an edge, but will it be enough to cross the finish line first?
Next, we have presenter Jeff Brazier and his youngest son Freddie.
While Jeff’s elder son, Bobby Brazier, has been making waves on EastEnders and Strictly Come Dancing, Freddie, has stayed mostly out of the limelight.
Now, it’s his turn to shine, and viewers will get an inside look at this dynamic father-son duo.
And if you thought the line-up couldn’t get any better, think again!
BBC Radio 2 DJ Scott Mills is also rumoured to be taking part, alongside his fiancé Sam Vaughan. The teaser for the upcoming special has fans buzzing with excitement.
"OMG was that @scott_mills’s voice I just heard in the trailer for Celebrity Race Across The World?" tweeted one eager fan, Ryan.
And after the BBC released four clue-filled images on Friday 26th July, it's looking more likely than ever that these previously teased names are this year's celebrity contestants.
While we don’t have a specific date for the series premiere, the tantalising teaser clip promises it’s 'coming soon' to BBC One and iPlayer.
The voiceover, hinting at the new adventure, said: “This journey may be over,” as footage from the series four finale played, followed by: “But a new one is about to begin.”
The trailer, keeping things mysterious, didn’t reveal the participants' faces and kept dialogue to a minimum.
But fans are already piecing together the clues and matching them to the rumoured cast.
So, are you ready for another whirlwind tour of the globe?
Celebrity Race Across the World promises to be packed with nail-biting moments, heartwarming teamwork, and plenty of laughs.
Whether they’re trekking through mountain terrain, navigating bustling cities, or finding themselves lost in translation, these celebs will have to pull out all the stops to make it to the Arctic first.
Stay tuned for what promises to be a race full of unexpected twists, breathtaking scenery, and, of course, a hefty dose of celebrity drama.
Grab your backpacks and get ready to embark on the ultimate adventure with Celebrity Race Across the World!
Race Across the World is available to watch on BBC iPlayer.
