*Coarse Language*How will a group of Western women cope when they are challenged to take on tribal women at their own sports and on their own turf? Following on from the series Last Man Standing, the women are now having their turn. A group of Western women are sent to some of the most remote areas on the globe, living with different tribes to experience what life is like for the tribal women who live there. The contestants must also train with the tribes and learn their ancient sporting rituals before taking on the women and all their years of experience - in a head-to-head competition.In the first episode, the rivals have to face a tough wrestling match in Brazil. Living with the Kamuyura tribe they must learn the traditions surrounding the annual Yamurikuma festival, which culminates in a competition, where tribal women from all their surrounding villages come together to fight, using the 'Huka Huka' style of wrestling which uses the lower body, knees, legs and feet.With each challenge needing a different set of skills, different forms of fitness and all undertaken in very different environments to those that they are used to, the women must adapt quickly if they are to stay in the competition. Will the Western women be able to cope in these extreme tribal worlds?Over the course of the journey, all of the athletes will be tested both physically and mentally as they give everything they can to the array of challenges that face them. But who will be crowned the Last Woman Standing?PRODUCTION DETAILS:A BBC Production, series producer Sophie Todd |
