RACE Across The World winners Alfie and Owen have broken their silence on how they plan to spend the £20k cash prize.
After a heart-pounding boat dash to the finish, the friends clinched victory in the epic 15,000km trek across Eastern Asia.
The pair - who are the youngest duo ever to win - have now revealed how they plan to splash some of their cash.
Owen said: “I’ll definitely take my parents away, do something nice for them.
"And then you know, treat my brothers to a bit of money, get my brother out his overdraft, because I'm sure he will need that."
Alfie joked: “I’m going to the Caribbean and then I need to go and live somewhere.
"So, I'm going to have to be sadly responsible with it… If it makes it through the Summer!"
The friends beat mother and daughter duo Eugenie and Isabel who came in second eight minutes behind.
Siblings Betty and James came in third while husband and wife Stephen and Viv came fourth.
The final episode of the BBC show saw Alfie and Owen begin the last leg in the lead by just 12 minutes ahead of Eugeine and Isabel.

Starting in Jakarta, Indonesia, they faced over 1,000 km to reach the finish line in Lombok.
Despite making good time, they realised they needed to catch a boat to the small island of Gili Meno upon arriving in Bangsal.
The island is only accessible by boat during daylight hours, so Alfie and Owen had to wait until morning to leave.
This delay gave Eugenie and Isabel time to catch up and the pair came head to head as they both waited for boats to Gili Meno.
As Alfie and Owen were the first to disembark the boat, they received a message to head to the Masjid Mosque.
Despite leaving their compass in a rucksack, the boys managed to navigate their way to the temple where they were given further instructions.
After sprinting along the beach, the boys ran into the tropical waters where the guest book awaited them.
There, they discovered they had won the race of a lifetime and the £20,000 prize.
The friends were overcome with emotion as they screamed “We’ve done it!” and hugged each other.
“We came, and we saw, and we succeeded," Owen declared.
Alfie added: “Best moment of our lives. Undeniably. Can’t believe it.”
