Ed Stafford planned for 12 months for his expedition to walk the length of the Amazon. During his journey he climbed mountains, went down the deepest gorge in South America and trekked through wetlands. He started his journey on 2 April 2008 with Luke Collyer who left after 3 months to return home to England and his fiancée, after falling out with Ed. Ed continued alone until August 2008 when he recruited Gadiel "Cho" Sanchez Rivera who travelled the rest of the way. This first episode covers his trip from Peru to Brazil, where he travelled through the Red Zone which is rife with drug traffickers. At one point, in Peru, local tribesmen imprisoned Mr Stafford and his partner on suspicion of murder. They were released after 48 hours. Written by Joyce M See less
