Celebrity Race Across the World is back on our screens as another group of celebrities swap technology and home comforts for paper maps as they attempt to navigate their way around the world.
The latest four pairs taking part in the hit BBC One show are siblings Princess Andre and Junior Andre; veteran sports broadcaster Jeff Stelling and his son Matt; singer-songwriter Ella Eyre and her childhood friend Nana Pepera; and musician Sam Ryder with his best friend and tour manager Kaz Coles.
For six weeks, the celebrities have no access to smartphones, the internet, Google Maps or contactless payments as they attempt to complete the 7,500km journey from Borneo, across South East Asia, to Melbourne in Australia.
The only concession to modern technology is the use of GPS tracking devices for the contestants’ safety.
Who are Princess and Junior Andre?
As the children of Katie Price and Peter Andre, Princess Andre (full name Princess Tiaamii Crystal Andrea) and Junior Andre (Junior Savva Andreas Andre) have spent their entire lives in the public spotlight.
At 19 (18 when the show was filmed), Princess and her 21-year-old brother are the youngest contestants in this year’s series.
With one million followers on Instagram and another 1.2 million on TikTok, Princess is a social media influencer who describes herself as a ‘public figure’ in her bio.

The siblings are clearly close and, before embarking on the race, Princess admitted: “Everything we do, we get compared to our parents. But we actually have our own thing that we do.”
Musician Junior Andre has proved to be one of the surprise packages of Celebrity Race Across the World so far, revealing that he took a job on the London Underground after running out of money earlier in his career.
He shared a video of himself at work with his 587,000 Instagram followers.
