-I'm quietly competitive and here

-to enjoy every step of the journey.

-I am here to win.

-I'll give anything a go.

-I know what I want and

-I'll do what it takes to get it.

-There will be things I won't enjoy

-but I look forward to the adventure.

-I'm a bit fiery.

-I wanted a new challenge.

-What better challenge

-than to compete on Ar Y Dibyn?

-Ten amateur adventurers determined

-to win a 10,000 prize package.

-I, Lowri Morgan...

-..and experienced adventure holiday

-expert, Dilwyn Sanderson-Jones...

-..will push them to their limits.

-Both physically and mentally.

-That will determine which one

-is the strongest adventurer.

-After cracking on the cliff face,

-Naomi was the first to leave.

-Phil fell foul of Dilwyn.

-We don't do that.

-But Dafydd excelled.

-The competition has just begun.

-If they thought Phase 1 was tough,

-then they won't like Phase 2.

-The nine are about to spend

-a second night at boot camp.

-Up to now, they've survived

-on calorie rich biscuits.

-They are about

-to be given their first meal.

-I hope it's been a nice day.

-I'm being kind enough to add

-some dried food to the biscuits.

-Enjoy.

-Sleep tight. Goodnight.

-This is for everyone.

-We've spent time together in

-the camp and we get on really well.

-There are no arguments

-and hopefully it'll stay like that.

-You go first.

-You go first.

-

-I'll get more water.

-We're pulling together,

-helping one another.

-I feel I've known them

-longer than a day already.

-This is quite nice.

-This is quite nice.

-

-Maybe with a bit of parmesan.

-If you want salt,

-you can scrape some off my boots!

-It's only the second day.

-I fear that when exhaustion

-and hunger kicks in...

-..people will start to snap.

-I'm saving this

-for a cup of soup later on.

-It's all quite relaxed.

-We're all saving our energy

-for what's to come.

-It's early to bed tonight.

-EPISODE 2

-TECHNIQUE AND STRENGTH

-In the great outdoors...

-..the ability to combine

-technique and strength skilfully...

-..can be useful in

-so many disparate ways.

-From climbing to canoeing...

-..a lack of technique means

-total dependence on strength.

-But dependence solely

-on strength...

-..means a person

-will get tired sooner.

-The first task is crawling

-across a rope on their tummies...

-..before carrying out

-a technique called 'regain'.

-They've been practising

-in the woodland.

-The real task will take place...

-..above the quarry lake, ten metres

-up and without a safety rope.

-This is one of our

-toughest individual tasks.

-Dragging yourself across

-the rope is tough...

-..but they have to hang underneath

-as well and get back up.

-Even with good technique,

-this will be really tough.

-Strength alone

-will not get this done.

-Tom is first onto the rope.

-Tom is first onto the rope.

-

-Focus on this.

-Don't look down.

-I haven't been very high recently.

-Do you get more scared

-of height as you age?

-Once I've got my head around

-the technique I adapt quite easily.

-Boxing involves harnessing the twin

-powers of strength and technique.

-When you are ready,

-do a full regain.

-Excellent, Tom. Well done.

-Tom achieves the regain

-and makes it across.

-Well done, Tom.

-Well done, Tom.

-

-I'm glad I managed the regain.

-I focused on the rope rather

-than looking down and it went well.

-Rhian Taylor is next and she's

-already struggled with height.

-Take your time. No hurry.

-An early slip

-reveals Rhian is nervous.

-If you think about anything

-other than the task, you'll fail.

-When faced with a challenge

-or a job to do...

-..I like to think that I have

-the determination to carry it out.

-I'm not sure I can.

-Last year, I ran

-30 half-marathons in 30 days.

-When my feet started to get tired

-and I had blisters...

-..I had to focus on something else.

-I tried to find a mental escape.

-You must decide now.

-Finding those mental escapes

-give you strength to press on.

-Think of all the things

-you've achieved.

-Then decide if this is another one.

-Okay, I will do it.

-Are you going for it?

-Are you going for it?

-

-I'll do it.

-Rhian overcomes her initial fears.

-The hardest part of the task

-is yet to come.

-Full regain, Rhian.

-I'm going down.

-I'm going down.

-

-Relax, look ahead, feet together.

-Well done, Rhian.

-Rhian, how do you feel?

-Really tired.

-I was so close to giving up.

-You believe in yourself and focus.

-Don't ignore the drop

-and focus on the rope.

-Rhian Taylor showed considerable

-mental strength to try and do it.

-Unfortunately, she didn't have

-the technique or the strength.

-She didn't complete the task but

-it was great to see her character.

-Cian is next

-and he succeeds with the regain.

-However, Catrin and Phil fail.

-In the last 18 months,

-I've lost four stone.

-I feel fully alive at the gym.

-I've built a lot of muscle and I

-think I'm a strong, muscular person.

-If I have to lift my own weight

-in a pull-up, I can do it.

-Rhian loses her balance before

-Dilwyn asks for the regain move.

-Lift yourself back up.

-The brief for letting go was simple.

-Get a good grip, look ahead,

-feet together and a controlled drop.

-Rhian failed on all counts.

-Okay Bryn, full regain.

-Don't quit.

-Bryn fails the challenge too.

-Great technique but

-no strength to back it up.

-He quit too easily for me.

-A wise man once told me,

-if you can't be strong, be crafty.

-I live to that motto.

-Good technique will

-double your strength at a task.

-There it is.

-That was great fun.

-I never lost focus

-and I'm delighted.

-Cassie is the last on the rope.

-When you are ready, do the regain.

-Drop your legs down.

-I was a real tomboy, climbing trees

-and playing games with the boys.

-Get back up. Go on.

-Throw your head right back.

-I'm determined to get what I want.

-I do what it takes to get it.

-Kick the leg down.

-Go on.

-Come on, Cassie.

-You are doing so well.

-Don't you dare quit.

-Come on, come on.

-I know you can do it.

-She is so close.

-Go for it again.

-Go for it again.

-

-I can't.

-I've never seen anyone

-try so hard before failing.

-She deserved to succeed.

-Well done.

-Well done.

-

-I'm gutted.

-Don't worry.

-How do you feel, now?

-So annoyed...

-..but I couldn't do it.

-A very difficult task

-but three succeeded.

-Cian, Tom and Dafydd.

-The rest failed...

-..but I saw Cassie and Rhian

-Taylor's strength of character.

-One is strong physically,

-the other is strong mentally.

-The others let themselves down

-by not having 100% commitment.

-Rhian Durnin was very lucky not to

-get hurt in that uncontrolled drop.

-After the individual task

-testing strength and technique...

-..it's time for a team task

-to test strength and technique.

-In teams of three -

-Red, White and Orange...

-..they have to swim to canoes,

-get all three on board...

-..paddle round the quarry, then land

-and carry the canoe up this path.

-Canoeing involves paddling technique

-and strong shoulders.

-However, the three members of

-the team must paddle in unison...

-..to harness all that power.

-Without that, they'll lose energy

-and maybe even travel in circles.

-Ready, 3, 2, 1, go.

-Tom from the White Team and Bryn

-from the Red Team take the lead.

-Dafydd from the Red Team

-brings up the rear.

-I fear the water

-and I'm a poor swimmer.

-I'm like a heavy stone

-through the water.

-I get tired quickly

-because I have to work hard.

-I take my time

-and rely on technique.

-Tom from the White Team

-gets to the canoes first.

-Getting three members safely

-into the canoe will take teamwork.

-Cassie gets in easily thanks

-to help from Bryn in the Red Team.

-The White Team on the other hand

-has a few problems.

-The Red Team has to wait

-for Dafydd to reach the canoe.

-In the meantime, the White Team

-sort themselves out and get going.

-Get on your knees.

-With all nine in their canoes...

-..the White Team

-reach the first buoy.

-Catrin, Rhian and Cian, the Orange

-Team, are chasing them down fast.

-Technique is crucial

-in many activities.

-More so than strength.

-I've done a bit of sea rowing.

-Without technique there,

-strength is meaningless.

-While the Orange Team chases the

-Whites, the Red Team lose control.

-The tension is clear

-between Bryn and Dafydd.

-It's me. We're turning too much.

-It's me. We're turning too much.

-

-You're pulling us. I need to go.

-We're going that way.

-When a team

-isn't pulling together...

-..someone has to put their foot down

-and take charge.

-Unless we pull together, we'll lose.

-I've been in the cadets so I'm

-comfortable with these scenarios.

-I'll be happy to tell people

-what needs to be done.

-Where are you going?

-By now, the White Team is working

-superbly together and lead by miles.

-Keep the weight in the middle.

-Slow down, Daf.

-Other side.

-Other side.

-

-I'm with you, Bryn.

-We're turning

-in the wrong direction again.

-Bryn, you need to paddle harder.

-As the Red Team struggles...

-..Tom, Phil and Rhian Taylor

-of the White Team land.

-The Orange Team

-are hot on their heels.

-Over the finish line.

-Don't give up.

-That side of it.

-Talk to each other.

-As the Whites celebrate...

-..Catrin, Cian and Rhian Durnin

-also finish the race.

-The Red Team remains on the water...

-..well behind.

-The White Team won the race.

-Orange were second and miles

-behind them was the Red Team.

-What went wrong?

-What went right is the question?

-Three monkeys with paddles

-would have done as well.

-There were strong characters

-in that boat.

-I concerned about Bryn.

-He was weak in the first task

-and weak again now.

-His place is at risk.

-Rhian Durnin was quite weak

-in both tasks too.

-The way she dropped was dangerous.

-Is she safe?

-After two tough tasks, the

-adventurers now pick their champion.

-The person chosen

-goes through automatically.

-Dilwyn and I will then decide

-who is on the precipice.

-That person is

-in danger of elimination.

-We were disappointing

-as a team in the canoe race.

-We failed to correct ourselves...

-..to close the gap between us

-and the other teams.

-Which one has boiled?

-We didn't harness the power

-of Daf and me properly.

-We did struggle as a result.

-From the Red Team, I was the weakest

-of the three in the rope task.

-I fear it may well be my turn to go.

-To lift spirits, Cian is making tea

-from some wild plants he's found.

-Are they like sour apples?

-We're all enjoying a cup

-of blackthorn tea I picked earlier.

-It doesn't have much flavour but

-it's something warm we can drink.

-It might cheer everyone up.

-It does have flavour.

-Mine's quite strong. Is it okay?

-I hope I don't need

-the spade tomorrow.

-Have you elected your champion?

-Tom is our champion.

-Congratulations.

-You are safely through.

-Cian, you also did very well.

-Keep at it.

-Rhian Durnin, you were the only one

-to lose grip of the rope.

-Your drop into the water

-was dangerous. Really dangerous.

-Bryn, we feel you made

-the least effort in the rope task.

-You were also in the losing team

-in the canoe race.

-Rhian Durnin and Bryn

-are on the precipice.

-We have agreed that

-the person leaving us is...

-..Rhian Durnin.

-I'm sad to see a big character like

-Rhian go. She made us all laugh.

-The camp will miss her.

-My life has changed entirely

-in the last 18 months.

-Just being able to

-come here was huge for me.

-I've done it.

-Knowing I was

-on the precipice wasn't nice.

-I was relieved when Rhian was named

-but I felt for her.

-I must complete the next task.

-The ten is down to eight

-but they all need to change gear.

-The competition is hotting up.

-NEXT TIME

-I've never been so scared.
