Paddy McGuinness hosts as 12 strangers begin a gruelling 18-day trek through the hostile tropical jungle of Langkawi, in Malaysia, to win a share of £300,000. But to keep the prize pot intact, they must resist the series of temptations thrown in their way. In the first episode, a custom-made swimming pool in the middle of the jungle, complete with canapés and champagne, proves too much for some to resist.
2. Episode 2
The 11 remaining fortune-seekers are split into three separate camps for 24 hours, leaving them with no clue whether the others have given in to temptation or not. Each group is tempted with a luxurious alternative to sleeping on hard wooden boards: a glamping experience, complete with midnight feast. Meanwhile, when the fortune-seekers face a leech-infested trek through murky waters, will anyone take up the offer of an air-conditioned taxi ride to their next campsite?

Each fortune-seeker is secretly offered a much-loved item from home. Meanwhile, jungle life is getting to Vicki. And will the group be persuaded by a boutique hotel with an eye-watering price tag?

The group are dealt a devastating blow and the prize fund takes a big hit. The campmates are tempted with coffee and pastries, and an all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet - but both will come at a cost.

Sealed bids to win a luxury night away from camp lead to outrageous spending. With the whole team reunited after 48 hours of being split in half, tempers flare, as each group's spending is revealed...
