Who would you trust to rescue you on the mission of a lifetime? Ultimate Escape is a new adventure competition series coming to Channel Seven and 7plus later this year.

The show will see everyday Australian heroes race against the clock and each other as they try to complete an epic journey.

Teams of two will attempt a high-stakes search and rescue operation in some of the toughest terrain on the planet.

One team member will need strength and endurance, while the other will rely on their smarts to compete for a big cash prize.

Seven’s chief content officer, entertainment programming, Angus Ross, said: “We’re excited to partner with HELIUM on this electrifying new format. Ultimate Escape is gripping TV, offering viewers fast-paced, jaw-dropping action supercharged by real emotion.”

HELIUM’s chief creative officer, Mark Fennessy, said: “Ultimate Escape is immersive, edge-of-the-seat, big event TV. With a stunning backdrop and teams of unique Australians, this groundbreaking series is like a blockbuster movie come to life.”
