During the series, filmed over three days, Ant and Liam bond as they camp in the Namibian desert with just a car and their backpacks.  

They walk on top of a high-speed train and swing across a canyon in the Spitzkoppe mountains, but the adventures are just the backdrop for the heart-to-hearts they have about their experiences. 

The singer was refreshingly frank and honest about his life in the spotlight on the show, and admitted his own life is ‘problematic and difficult’, and at times ‘lonely’.  

The 26-year-old also spoke out about the darker side of fame, admitting it ‘nearly killed him’ during a candid chat with Ant.
