South Beach's bridge has been destroyed by rough tides, while the North Beach contestants have fallen apart by tension and in-fighting. Just when it seems all hope is lost, Aldo Kane offers the teams a lifeline in the form of a tug-of-war challenge, which sees them literally fighting over 100ft of bridge in the hope of pulling it back to their own beach.
Episode 5
As the two sides begin to make good progress, host AJ Odudu presents them with a curveball - any team member can put themselves forward to switch beaches. At least one person from each group must move to their rivals, and if no one volunteers, then it's up to the team leaders who goes.

One of the teams is dealing with a betrayal after one of their own sabotages the build in exchange for some of the prize fund. The team's chances of being first to the money have never seemed so far out of reach. Luckily, there's a lifeline around the corner, as both teams are offered the chance to bid for a carpenter to join their ranks. But they're not bidding in money - they're bidding in the number of team members to go home.
Episode 8
The contestants are in the final few hours of building their bridges. Tensions run high as both teams edge closer to the island and the jackpot - it's neck and neck as they build with fury to be first to finish. Which team will make it to the money first? And who will leave with the jackpot? Presented by AJ Odudu.
