💨 Abstract

The fifth season of "Race Across The World" features five pairs racing through China, Nepal, and India on a £1,000 per person budget. While popular among viewers, the show has faced criticism for focusing too much on contestants' emotional backstories, with some fans arguing that it distracts from the travel and logistical challenges. Defenders of the emotional content emphasize that it adds depth and makes the show different from other travel programs.
