She then looks out to the sea and sees Mark Labbett walking out of the sea, Daniel Craig-style.
The show sees the trio head off on a trip across America, as they embark on an intellectual journey to see whether humans are as intelligent as they think they are.
As part of their journey, they meet Kanzi, a Bonobo ape able to communicate with humans using pictures and symbols on a lexigram, and they also swam with dolphins.
Speaking to Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield on This Morning about the show, Mark said: "Kanzi is the of the Einstein of the primate world, and really is a prodigy."
The voiceover states: "And, using their hearts as well as their heads, they will confront the moral challenge: that if humanity fully understood animal intelligence, would we treat them differently?"
The Chaser's Road Trip: Trains, Brains and Automobiles is on Thursday January 21st at 9pm on ITV.
