What happens when six opinionated Brits, with starkly opposing views on immigration, confront the harsh realities of refugee life? Dave, a chef from Nottingham; Bushra, a small business owner from Surrey; Chloe, a GB News regular from Cornwall; Nathan, a haulage business owner from Barnsley; Mathilda, a podcaster from London; and Jess, a sports coach from south-west Wales — take their outspoken views on immigration and put them to the ultimate test on a life-changing journey.

Dropped into Mogadishu, Somalia, and Raqqa, Syria — two of the world’s most dangerous cities — they face the threat of missile strikes, the devastating overcrowding of refugee camps, and the crippling poverty that millions endure. Often hiding behind humour, their deeply polarized views on immigration are pushed to breaking point, sparking intense conflicts and shocking revelations.

As they journey through Africa, the Middle East, and Europe on their way back to the UK, they trek across vast deserts, climb treacherous mountain borders, and endure the perilous dangers of small boat crossings. Along the way, they uncover the raw truth — not only of how refugees reach Britain, but why they risk everything to get here, and what they leave behind. Will this eye-opening journey change their minds on immigration, or will it only strengthen their resolve?
