Nevena and John are joined live on air by  Elliot Constable, who  was recently crowned the winner of Race Around the World, bringing to an end 100 days on the road.

Unlike previous weeks, contestants on the ABC iview series were able to select their own destination for the reboot’s finale.

For Constable, it was the favelas of Brazil.

Topping the leaderboard of six filmmakers, Constable has won the crown and funding to produce his own project for the ABC.
