Running Wild with Bear Grylls

documentary / 10pm / Discovery Channel

Bear Grylls takes three more celebrities out of their comfort zones, beginning with Hollywood star Julia Roberts. Her motto ‘keep laughing’ is put to the test as she embarks on a mission to get life-saving vaccines from Wamba Hospital in Northern Kenya to a remote village that’s two days away across scorching bush and

croc-infested rivers. Julia’s first challenge is getting over a flimsy rope bridge, before dining on a goat’s head. ‘I’ve so much conflict about how I feel about you,’ she says to Bear as he hands her some chargrilled brain… It’s fuel before their final push, though – they need to get to the village by morning or the vaccines will spoil.
