Stephanie’s episode featured the scenery of Northumbria - it aired on Monday.

Stephanie, who has over 500,000 social media followers, well over 20 million video views, sell-out tours and star of ITV’s Judge Rinder, took hikers on a 5km walk to Northumbria’s most famous landmark, Hadrian’s Wall.

Despite suffering from vertigo, she gave it her best at hiking Northumbria’s highest spots with her fellow hikers.

She completed her hike with some historical-themed activities. First of all, a life drawing at Sycamore Gap, the iconic location of Robin Hood. She also dressed up as Maid Marian and posed as a backdrop for the drawing.

The Northern Echo:

The hikers also had a picnic of a pork pie with melon.

Her rivals scored her 30 out of 40 points.
