I applied for the second series, years ago, along with a couple of like-minded friends. We were turned down, and I think it was because they changed the format to only allow for teams comprised of workmates from a particular company.

Some of their challenges have been quite interesting, although in several cases they cheated. The high-power rocketry and steam car episodes particularly irked me, for several reasons.

I'm up for another go, though.
