Race Across The World is returning very soon

The hit BBC show - which sees two-person teams racing against each other to win a £20,000 cash price - is set for its fourth series, and fans don't have to wait along.

It's been confirmed the new series will start on April 10 at 9pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.

The contestants and route for this year's edition are yet to be announced, but the travellers will once again be able to take any route they like, providing they don't use any phones or take any flights.

Meanwhile, a further fifth series of the show has already been commissioned, as well as the celebrity spin-off series.

Tim Harcourt, creative director at production company Studio Lambert, said: "Audiences seem pleased that the difficult and disarming undertaking of the Race was not watered down for well-known personalities and their loved ones.

"We are thrilled to be making another series for the BBC."

Last year, fans were treated to the first ever celebrity edition, with Alex Beresford, Harry Judd, Mel Blatt and Billy Monger all taking part.

For the 2023 civilian series, the five pairs raced across Canada, going between Vancouver, British Columbia and St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, while the previous series saw them battling from Mexico City to Argentina.

The celebrities started in Marrakech, Morocco, and finished in Tromsø, Norway, 'Good Morning Britain' weatherman Alex Beresford and his dad Noel narrowly beat McFly's Harry Judd and his mum Emma to win the show after travelling through 24 countries to get to the finish line.
