Adventurer Ben Fogle and former British Olympian James Cracknell embark on their greatest challenge yet - to be the first Westerners to cross the Empty Quarter of the Arabian Desert alone and unguided. This is an area larger than France, Belgium and Holland combined, with mountains of sand as high as the Eiffel tower, where temperatures can reach 40 degrees Celsius. But with only the stars and the shifting patterns of the dunes for navigation, occasional oases for supplies and each other for company, how will these two intrepid adventurers cope?
