The first series of Amazing Race is returning to Sky One this January .. but viewers will have to be up early to watch it.

The US reality adventure show was originally broadcast on the channel in 2001 in a primetime slot but was dropped after just four episodes and moved to a graveyard slot.

Now the programme is getting another airing, Tuesdays at 4am from January 6. It is unknown at this time whether the second series will follow the first.
