In Bear's Mission with David Walliams, David is taken way out of his comfort zone, on a journey across one of Devon's most spectacular and rugged valleys.

In this first show of the series Jonny struggles with heights and confined spaces so the hidden world on the fringes of Dartmoor that Bear has selected offers both 50 metre sheer drops and damp cramp caves. Even before their descent into a dank and unwelcoming world Jonny is telling candid tales of how driven and obsessed he was as a child, how a missed kick brought weeks of mental torment and acute fear of failure to a ten-year old Jonny. Climbing hand over hand, an old commando assault technique, Jonny is soon fighting his way up a 40 meter slimy chimney in the rock face but it's the conversation with Bear at the top that reveals the true obsessive nature of Jonny Wilkinson, and how he has learned to harness a force that would drive him to become one of the world's best rugby players but which would ultimately take him to the brink of a mental breakdown.

Bear Grylls will be pushing boxing champion and double Olympic gold medalist Nicola Adams to her limits in Bear & Nicola Adams' Wild Adventure. Nicola will face the grueling and harsh terrain of Dartmoor in a once in a lifetime experience and test her survival instincts.

Nicola will join Bear to battle the wild and push her physical and mental limits. Nicola will also learn the key basic survival skills necessary to survive in remote terrain like Dartmoor. In addition to the physical challenge of the adventures, Bear will also have the chance to get to know his companion by speaking to her about her life, achievements, key life moments, as well as her hopes for the future.
