0:02:23 > 0:02:28- Your main energy source are - biscuits and freeze dried food.
0:02:28 > 0:02:33- I can tell you from experience - that they are not tasty.
0:02:33 > 0:02:38- In the mountains, - river water is fine to drink.
0:02:39 > 0:02:44- Check 50 metres upriver to make sure - there are no dead sheep there.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46- This is your toilet.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49- Go wherever you want.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53- But don't go to the toilet - near your water source!
0:03:01 > 0:03:06- I can't fit! I'm fine roughing it - if I'm warm and dry.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11- If I'm cold and wet, - I'll start to complain!
0:03:13 > 0:03:16- I'm not bothered about not washing.
0:03:17 > 0:03:22- I'm not looking forward to the early - starts. I like my sleep too much.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26- It's a single man tent.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29- We only have the bare essentials.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32- This is my water and pee pot.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36- A hole for poo.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39- Shouldn't it be deeper?
0:03:39 > 0:03:43- Considering how little we'll eat, - we won't shit a lot.
0:03:43 > 0:03:48- We'll look at their leadership - and decision-making skills.
0:03:49 > 0:03:54- They'll be assessed on the qualities - needed to be an adventurer.
0:03:54 > 0:03:58- This time, we concentrate - on physical toughness.
0:03:58 > 0:04:03- Their first challenge - is crossing this lake.
0:04:03 > 0:04:08- They'll carry their belongings - and equipment above their heads.
0:04:09 > 0:04:13- Crossing water sometimes - has to be done in the outdoors.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16- They must wear the right clothes.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19- I'd wear waterproofs, thermals...
0:04:19 > 0:04:23- ..and remove insoles from boots.
0:04:23 > 0:04:28- It's vital to have dry clothes - to change into the other side.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32- This is a challenge for pairs.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36- Lewys and Lance are first to go.
0:04:36 > 0:04:41- The first challenge is crossing - from the pole to where I'll be.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44- The water could reach up - to your necks.
0:04:44 > 0:04:49- Keep your arms in the air - so your bag and clothes stay dry.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52- You have five minutes to prepare. - Go!
0:04:57 > 0:05:00- They've taken off too many clothes.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04- They'd freeze if they crossed - like this in such cold water.
0:05:05 > 0:05:06- I have to step in.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09- Can I give you a word of advice?
0:05:11 > 0:05:14- Wet weather gear, - trousers and a top.
0:05:14 > 0:05:19- It'll provide some warmth - in the water.
0:05:21 > 0:05:22- Is this wet weather, too?
0:05:22 > 0:05:24- Is this wet weather, too?- - No.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28- Lewys and Lance are ready to cross.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30- Good luck.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35- Arms straight!
0:05:36 > 0:05:40- The adventurers - have one set of clothes.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43- They have to keep them dry.
0:05:45 > 0:05:50- They're halfway across the lake. - Their arms will be burning.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53- Arms straight!
0:05:54 > 0:05:58- The word adventure - means taking a leap.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02- I wouldn't say - I'm physically active.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06- I'm up for the challenge. - I hope to learn a lot.
0:06:07 > 0:06:12- Ideal, spot on. Lance and Lewys - took too long to get ready.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16- But it was a good effort.
0:06:17 > 0:06:22- Next to cross are Richard and Cara. - Cara gets it right from the start.
0:06:23 > 0:06:28- We have waterproofs, too. - I'm going to change into them.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39- For me, an adventure - is something I haven't done before.
0:06:39 > 0:06:43- It pushes me to try something new.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49- Richard and Cara did very well.
0:06:49 > 0:06:53- They wore the right clothes - and kept their bags dry.
0:06:54 > 0:06:55- James and Helen are next.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59- The freezing water - takes Helen's breath away.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01- Oh, my god, it's freezing.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04- HELEN SCREAMS
0:07:04 > 0:07:07- I enjoy swimming.
0:07:07 > 0:07:12- Screaming "It's cold" is typical me.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16- Watch the stones.
0:07:17 > 0:07:21- People underestimate me - because I'm a girl...
0:07:21 > 0:07:23- ..and I'm blonde.
0:07:24 > 0:07:28- But when I take things seriously, - people know it.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- Talk about thrown in the deep end!
0:07:31 > 0:07:34- I thought it would be waist high!
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- Ifan and Beca also - cross successfully.
0:07:43 > 0:07:47- The final pair - are Seimon and Sioned.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50- They also need some advice.
0:07:50 > 0:07:55- You need to wear wet weather gear. - They're thin but dry quickly.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58- They'll provide a little warmth.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02- Wear shoes. - You don't know how stony it is.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08- Five minutes! Come on! - You should be ready by now!
0:08:11 > 0:08:13- Sioned needs more help.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16- Are they your waterproofs?
0:08:16 > 0:08:18- Oh, god!
0:08:21 > 0:08:23- You should be halfway across by now!
0:08:29 > 0:08:32- Are we ready?
0:08:40 > 0:08:42- I'm not great in water.
0:08:43 > 0:08:47- I'm not a good swimmer. - I'll panic if the water is cold.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51- I hope there aren't - many water challenges!
0:08:53 > 0:08:54- DILWYN WHISTLES
0:08:56 > 0:08:59- Despite being told - to hold up their bags...
0:08:59 > 0:09:03- ..the bags - are dragged through the water.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09- Arms right up! The bag is soaking!
0:09:13 > 0:09:16- Feel the bag.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21- It's soaking. - You need to learn from that test.
0:09:23 > 0:09:24- Thanks.
0:09:24 > 0:09:29- Why put the clothes in a bag, - then get everything wet?
0:09:29 > 0:09:31- Waste of time.
0:09:33 > 0:09:37- I feel much warmer - having seen them in the water.
0:09:37 > 0:09:42- Did one pair stand out?
0:09:42 > 0:09:48- Richard and Cara did very well - and worked as a team.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50- They're the frontrunners.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52- They're the frontrunners.- - Sioned and Seimon struggled.
0:09:53 > 0:09:58- The others kept their bags dry, - but their bags got wet.
0:09:59 > 0:10:00- A failure.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03- Bootcamp, Day 1 of 7
0:10:06 > 0:10:09- The first challenge is over.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13- They must prepare - for their first night.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14- Chilly!
0:10:15 > 0:10:17- They're lighting a fire.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19- Not that way.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21- Not that way.- - The flame has to be on the bottom.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25- We want an arch, just as you said...
0:10:25 > 0:10:27- ..a small one...
0:10:27 > 0:10:29- ..or it might all collapse.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32- The fire could go out.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35- Air will get under it - and blow it out.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37- We'll get there.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41- Perhaps there are too many cooks.
0:10:42 > 0:10:47- When they lit the fire, - everyone wanted to have their say.
0:10:47 > 0:10:51- Some of the group - should listen more.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54- It looks appetizing.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57- Perhaps there are too many bosses.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00- We might have personality clashes.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03- We'll see.
0:11:09 > 0:11:09- .
0:11:13 > 0:11:13- Subtitles
0:11:13 > 0:11:15- Subtitles- - Subtitles
0:11:16 > 0:11:20- The adventurers have spent - their first night in bootcamp.
0:11:21 > 0:11:25- This is their home - for the next week.
0:11:25 > 0:11:30- It took ages to get to sleep - and my feet were cold.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34- I don't know how much more - I can put up with!
0:11:34 > 0:11:38- It'll be heavy going - if we make it to the end.
0:11:39 > 0:11:44- There's no time to relax. They - must prepare for the next challenge.
0:11:45 > 0:11:49- They will complete a fitness course - in two teams of five.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53- It's against the clock.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57- The fastest team wins.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01- Stamina and - pushing their bodies to the limit...
0:12:01 > 0:12:04- ..is vital in an adventurer.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06- That's what I want to see.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10- I want to see - everyone giving 100%...
0:12:10 > 0:12:13- ..to get themselves and the team...
0:12:13 > 0:12:17- ..over the finish line - in the fastest time.
0:12:18 > 0:12:23- The course involves carrying - a log, pulling a Land Rover...
0:12:24 > 0:12:28- ..and finishing with - a steep slog up Moel Y Cynghorion.
0:12:28 > 0:12:34- Sioned and Seimon, as the weakest - in the first test, are team leaders.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37- Team Seimon goes first.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39- Ready? Go!
0:12:40 > 0:12:44- Helen runs ahead to prepare - the next part of the course.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52- Good speed, lads!
0:12:52 > 0:12:53- Keep going.
0:12:58 > 0:13:03- A leader must remember that everyone - has something to offer the team.
0:13:03 > 0:13:07- It's important to find out what - that is. That's what I'll do.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10- Come on!
0:13:10 > 0:13:14- The team decides to push - the vehicle, not pull it.
0:13:15 > 0:13:16- It's there!
0:13:16 > 0:13:18- Nice one.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21- After completing - the first two parts...
0:13:21 > 0:13:24- ..the team tackles - Moel Y Cynghorion.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26- Give 100%! Come on!
0:13:27 > 0:13:29- That way.
0:13:29 > 0:13:30- That track I think.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33- James suggests the least steep path.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37- But soon, Helen starts to suffer.
0:13:41 > 0:13:42- Can we stop?
0:13:42 > 0:13:44- It's alright, come on.
0:13:46 > 0:13:47- You're doing well.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49- Sorry, my chest is really tight.
0:13:52 > 0:13:57- If someone is struggling - and we have to finish as a team...
0:13:57 > 0:14:01- ..I'd stay at the back to help - and maybe carry their bag.
0:14:01 > 0:14:05- It's important to help - anyone who is struggling.
0:14:05 > 0:14:10- But don't ask me when it's time - to do individual challenges.
0:14:10 > 0:14:14- I'll be like a shark scenting blood, - going for the kill!
0:14:15 > 0:14:20- I like the fact that James - carried Helen's backpack.
0:14:20 > 0:14:24- We often see that in ultramarathons - and mountain races.
0:14:25 > 0:14:29- The strongest ones always - carry the struggler's packs.
0:14:29 > 0:14:30- I'm sorry, guys.
0:14:30 > 0:14:31- I'm sorry, guys.- - It's OK.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33- BLEEP
0:14:33 > 0:14:34- My chest is tight.
0:14:34 > 0:14:35- My chest is tight.- - Push through it.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39- We'll work through it. - Think of that prize.
0:14:41 > 0:14:42- Sorry.
0:14:42 > 0:14:43- It's OK.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47- I was fit when I was in school.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50- I did 1,500, 800 - and 200 metre races.
0:14:52 > 0:14:56- But I haven't really had time - to get back to that level.
0:14:56 > 0:15:00- I wouldn't say, - "No, I can't." I'd always try.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03- I think I could do well - in everything.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- But it might be a different - story when I do it!
0:15:08 > 0:15:09- Count to ten, boys!
0:15:09 > 0:15:11- Count to ten, boys!- - I have to stop, sorry.
0:15:12 > 0:15:12- We're almost there!
0:15:12 > 0:15:15- We're almost there!- - Dig deep. You can rest at the top.
0:15:16 > 0:15:17- Sorry.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19- Don't say sorry, keep going!
0:15:21 > 0:15:25- The mind wants to get to the top, - but the body says no.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29- It's down to lack - of sleep, food and strength.
0:15:31 > 0:15:32- Come on.
0:15:35 > 0:15:40- Come on, the race isn't over - until I touch the last person.
0:15:41 > 0:15:45- Despite Helen's pain, the team - gets to the top without resting...
0:15:46 > 0:15:48- ..in 13 minutes, 47 seconds.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51- Well done! Brilliant!
0:15:51 > 0:15:52- Are you alright?
0:15:52 > 0:15:53- Are you alright?- - Oh!
0:15:53 > 0:15:54- Well done, Helen!
0:15:55 > 0:15:58- From what I saw, James stayed - at the back with Helen.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02- Seimon, as leader, should do that.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06- It isn't the best - leadership display I've seen.
0:16:06 > 0:16:12- Sadly, because of her fitness level, - Helen was the weakest.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16- But after seeing - how much effort she made...
0:16:16 > 0:16:20- ..and how breathless she was - at the end, she impressed me.
0:16:20 > 0:16:24- She could easily have - given up, but she didn't.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31- When I heard I was going to be - a leader, I thought, "Oh, no!"
0:16:31 > 0:16:35- But I think leading - is one of my strengths.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37- I hope to show what I can do.
0:16:38 > 0:16:38- Happy?
0:16:38 > 0:16:39- Happy?- - Happy.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43- No-one go off on their own, - or I'll scream.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46- The whistle will come out!
0:16:46 > 0:16:49- Helen has come down - from the mountain.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51- But her chest is still tight.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53- Helen, are you alright?
0:16:53 > 0:16:57- Yes. It aches, - but if it carries on, I'll tell you.
0:16:57 > 0:16:58- OK.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02- Does it hurt when you breathe in? - Is it there all the time?
0:17:02 > 0:17:06- I think it's because - I pushed myself so hard.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11- Go that side, it's much better.
0:17:12 > 0:17:12- Everyone OK?
0:17:12 > 0:17:13- Everyone OK?- - Yes.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16- Team Sioned sets off at speed.
0:17:16 > 0:17:17- Team Sioned sets off at speed.- - Well done.
0:17:19 > 0:17:20- Keep going!
0:17:23 > 0:17:24- Everyone alright?
0:17:26 > 0:17:29- All five are staying - together really well.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32- I like the fact I can hear Sioned.
0:17:33 > 0:17:34- Come on!
0:17:34 > 0:17:39- The leader must take responsibility - for the team. She's doing that.
0:17:40 > 0:17:44- Team Sioned decides to take - the shortest but toughest route...
0:17:44 > 0:17:46- ..straight up the mountain.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51- Lewys is suffering.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55- Keep moving, Lewys. - Stopping is the worst thing to do.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57- He's not alone.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27- ..they take a break.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30- Do your calves ache?
0:18:33 > 0:18:36- I'm amazed at what they're doing.
0:18:38 > 0:18:44- They should be pushing - themselves to their limit.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46- They're not all that far from us.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49- OK?
0:18:50 > 0:18:53- We're almost there. It's not far.

0:19:04 > 0:19:09- I've represented Wales in - mountain running and cross-country.

0:19:26 > 0:19:30- Team Sioned finishes the race - in 14 minutes, 57 seconds.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33- That's over a minute slower - than Team Seimon.
0:19:34 > 0:19:34- Everyone alright?
0:19:34 > 0:19:35- Everyone alright?- - Yes.
0:19:36 > 0:19:41- I was really disappointed that they - stopped 100 yards from the finish.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44- There was only a minute - and ten seconds in it.
0:19:45 > 0:19:49- They stopped for a lot more - than a minute. They lost the race.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53- Back at the base, - Helen's condition hasn't improved.
0:19:54 > 0:19:58- After a 30 minute rest, - Helen's pulse should slow down.
0:19:58 > 0:20:02- But it's still 103, - so she has to go to hospital.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05- I just hope she'll be alright.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11- Helen is on her way to hospital.
0:20:11 > 0:20:16- The other contestants pack, - in case they're the first to leave.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21- I hope I've done enough - to go on to the next round.
0:20:21 > 0:20:26- It's too soon to leave. I want - to enjoy more of this experience.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29- Most of the contestants - are stronger than me.
0:20:30 > 0:20:35- I've never done anything like this - before. I think I've done enough.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37- I completed the tasks.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40- I hope I've done enough.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43- I had a lot to prove today.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45- So cross fingers now.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47- At the end of each round...
0:20:48 > 0:20:53- ..Dilwyn and I will decide who is - at risk of leaving the competition.
0:20:53 > 0:20:59- But first, the contestants must - choose who they think is at the top.
0:20:59 > 0:21:03- Their place will be - safe for the next round.
0:21:03 > 0:21:08- When I was struggling, I knew - you could carry on with the group.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12- She led the team very well - in the second task.
0:21:13 > 0:21:18- I couldn't have done the second - task without your encouragement.
0:21:35 > 0:21:40- I understand you've decided - who is at the top.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42- It's Ifan.
0:21:44 > 0:21:48- Many congratulations, Ifan. - Well done, you're safe.
0:21:49 > 0:21:53- For me, Lance was the strongest, - from the start. Keep it up.
0:21:55 > 0:22:00- Unfortunately, we have - to say goodbye to one of you.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03- At risk...
0:22:03 > 0:22:06- ..is Lewys.
0:22:06 > 0:22:11- We haven't seen enough of you. - The bar has been set very high.
0:22:11 > 0:22:15- You haven't quite - reached that standard yet.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21- But the decision - has been made for us this week.
0:22:21 > 0:22:26- Unfortunately, Helen - won't continue with the journey.
0:22:27 > 0:22:32- Congratulations. The nine of you - are through to the next round.
0:22:32 > 0:22:37- I feel for Helen. It's one - of the worst ways to leave.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40- But she went out fighting.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42- She had a lot more to show.
0:22:42 > 0:22:46- She won't get the chance now. - I feel sorry for her.

0:22:53 > 0:22:57- I'm glad to have the opportunity. - I hope I can prove myself.
0:22:57 > 0:23:02- Helen's condition has improved, - but health is a priority.
0:23:02 > 0:23:06- Sadly, she can't continue. - I know what's ahead of them.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08- It gets tougher...
0:23:08 > 0:23:10- ..a lot tougher.
