From Borneo to Melbourne: The drama and the race to the finish. Who is your pick to win?

Chaos has erupted on the new series of Celebrity Race Across The World, with sports presenter Jeff Stelling admitting he is tempted to quit mid-race. According to the Daily Star ^[2], a visibly overwhelmed Stelling confessed in a teaser, "I would go home now. But I can't," leaving fans wondering if he will hang on until the next episode.

The 71-year-old broadcaster is racing his son Matt on a grueling 7,500km expedition from Borneo to Melbourne. Meanwhile, the Mirror ^[1] reported that siblings Princess and Junior Andre faced a turbulent start, catching up in the race only to suffer a major setback. The pair, children of Katie Price and Peter Andre, are determined to prove they can succeed without living in their famous parents' shadows.

Princess, 18, opened up about past trauma during the episode, recalling the struggles she faced after a car jacking in South Africa as a child. Despite finishing last at the second checkpoint, the Andre siblings have captured the public’s imagination. Fans have taken to social media to declare them the underdogs with the best chance of taking the crown.

One viewer wrote on X, formerly Twitter, "Junior and Princess just don't let themselves get too down about anything," praising their positive mindset and respect for locals. Another supporter insisted, "Don't count Princess and Junior out so soon," arguing that younger generations deserve more credit than they are often given.

The race, which sees four pairs of celebrities navigating Southeast Asia, is streaming on BBC iPlayer. As the competitors push through checkpoints, the question remains: will Stelling survive the pressure, or will the Andre siblings’ resilience see them through to victory?
