Celebrity Race Across The World season 4 recap: Winner ‘sealed’ as another star sparks fears they’ll quit
Jeff Stelling’s ‘big problem’
Jeff and Matt have opened up about the big problem they faced during the show.
Appearing on Wednesday’s episode of BBC’s Morning Live, Matt said: “I was so misguided, to be honest; it’s so different from just going backpacking where you could take everything at your own pace, and if something went wrong, well, you could just go book into a hostel and go again the next day.
“We didn’t have that luxury at all whilst we were racing, and we’re constantly thinking on the race, ‘where are we going next and how are we going to get there.'”
Jeff added: “When you’re backpacking with someone like me, one big problem is that a lot of hostels will not let you in if you’re over 35. We were turned away from hostels because I was over 35- well, only just.”
