Total Wipeout is back for another series of bumps, crunches, smashes and splashes. Once again 20 foolhardy Brits throw their caution and dignity to the wind on the purpose-built obstacle course in Argentina, hoping that their bodies hold out long enough to capture a £10,000 first prize.

Richard Hammond is the master of ceremonies, commentating and commenting on the unfolding carnage, while Amanda Byram is his mistress of mirth, stifling a few giggles at the side of the course.

The 2010 Total Wipeout course has new games and challenges, including the evil Motivator, a gargantuan mallet to help unwary contestants across the Big Red Balls; Crash Mountain, the evil offspring of the Sweeper; and a terrifying new Wipeout Zone. Show less
