Bear's Wild Weekend With...

Category: News Release

TX: January.

Bear Grylls takes Miranda Hart and Jonathan Ross on their own once-in-a-lifetime expeditions to some of world's most stunning natural environments for two exhilarating new programmes for Channel 4.

In Bear's Wild Weekend with Miranda (airing on Boxing Day), comedy writer and actress Miranda Hart confronts her greatest fears while exploring the spectacular Swiss Alps.

Miranda traverses a glacier, crosses crevasses roped to Bear, tackles deep snow in snow shoes and completes a huge boulder scramble. She also faces her greatest fears when she flies in a helicopter and abseils down a waterfall.

And in Bear's Wild Weekend with Jonathan Ross presenter and chat show host Jonathan discovers his inner Tarzan in the magnificent rainforests of the volcanic island of La Palma, one of the least-known of the Canaries.

Jonathan's two-day adventure with Bear includes an exhausting trek through dense and steep jungle, abseiling from a helicopter, SAS-style, swinging through the trees, sleeping in a hammock and walking across an active volcano.
