All3Media international has announced that Studio Lambert’s format Race Across the World will travel to Germany in 2025 on ZDF. Planning for the six-part series, premiering in spring 2025, is currently underway for casting and filming produced by TOWER, an All3Media company.
The original version, produced by Studio Lambert, has run for three seasons and one celebrity season in the U.K. on the BBC, with a new season of both the original and celebrity version commissioned. Race Across the World was the BBC’s biggest factual entertainment brand of 2023 with the first episode of the celebrity version averaging 6.2m viewers.
Race Across the World has seen additional international success in Denmark on TV2, in the Netherlands on RTL, and in Finland, where the first series will premiere next month on MTV Katsomo and MTV3.
