Episode 1
Paddy McGuinness challenges a group of 12 strangers to make a gruelling trek across 18 miles of the South African wilderness - and resist a series of temptations along the way. The party starts out with a prize fund of £300,000 to be shared at the end of the journey, but each time one of them cracks, the money goes down.
Episode 2
The journey continues, and alliances are starting to form within the group. With the gruelling trek starting to take its toll on the 12 Brits' bodies and morale, the temptations are becoming a lot harder to resist, as each enticing offering gets placed quite literally in their path. Will the thought of a hot shower be too hard to resist?
Episode 3
Some of the trekkers are becoming more and more swayed towards alienating the rest of the group and splurging some of the prize money on home comforts. Can they resist sugary sweetness and an evening in a living room that reminds them of everything back home?
Episode 4
The trekkers are now past the halfway point of their arduous journey, and fatigue is setting in. The chance to cut loose and enjoy themselves with a party in the woods and a silent disco may prove hard to resist.
Episode 5
The prize fund has taken some hits, and much of the group aren't happy. But will the bad feeling stop any of them spending more cash on doughnuts and a trip to a cocktail bar?
Episode 6
It's the final leg of the journey, and the group must tackle a chilling night trek before reaching the finish line. A bombshell rule change throws everything up in the air. With the ultimate temptation standing between them and the end of their expedition, will they risk everything?

After a shooting that leaves a young PC dead, and his partner paralysed, he finds himself exiled to the basement and the sole member of Department Q; a newly formed cold case unit. The department is a PR stunt, there to distract the public from the failures of an under-resourced, failing police force that is glad to see the back of him. But more by accident than design, Carl starts to build a gang of waifs and strays who have everything to prove. So, when the stone-cold trail of a prominent civil servant who disappeared several years ago starts to heat up, Carl is back doing what he does best - rattling cages and refusing to take no for an answer.
