“It took me the entire first day to realise how far away we were from anything,” said Carmarthenshire TikTok star David ‘Dai’ Davison about his stint on the second series of Channel 4 ’s The Bridge, which is currently airing. The 36-year-old lorry driver from South Wales who had previously described himself as a "Karl Pilkington-type character, moaning about most things in life," slowly realised his experience on the Vietnam-set challenge show was almost certainly going to be very different to his day-to-day in Llanelli - and he was ready to cause a stir with his opinionated nature, which his fellow teammates describe as "savage."
In the eight-part series, which returned last week, June 7 to be exact, 16 strangers compete for the chance to win £200,000. The group will have to face the ultimate test of physical ability, mental skill and teamwork in Ha Long Bay in Vietnam. Going head-to-head, two teams have to build a bridge over 1,000 feet of water in just 12 days to reach the cash which lies below a tower on an island between both beaches. But only one person from the winning team can take home the huge amount of money.
