Ireland’s Fittest Family

RTÉ One, 6.30pm

After two weeks, coach Anna Geary has failed to see any of her families progress and is feeling the pressure.

Each family must nominate one member, the sole survivor, to balance on a beam six metres high in the tree tops.

And 'fast and furious' is a test of speed, agility, and endurance. It’s a head to head 300m relay race jumping over hay bales, a balance beam around a barrel with a sprint back to tag in the next member of their team.
