Gladiators ready! Hosts Bradley and Barney Walsh welcome four battle-hardened Contenders back into the arena to face off once again with the awesome Gladiators in the first of this year’s semi-finals.
Over five gruelling events and the energy-draining Eliminator, only the fastest and strongest will make it to the next stage of the competition.
Who will have the strength and heart to power up the Travelator and claim one of the coveted places in the grand final?
In this contest, the referees are on point in Collision, unbeaten Comet returns to Hang Tough, and Cyclone gets bored on top of Everest.
