Hollyoaks just hasn't been the same since the sad departure of Max and OB, but, luckily for us, the actors who played them, Matt Littler and Darren Jeffries, have now made a brand new show – and we think it's even better than 'Oaks. In Red Bull Rivals (this Saturday, Channel 4, 1.05pm), Matt and Darren challenge each other in a series of extreme sports in extreme circumstances, including cliff diving, free-running, downhill urban mountain biking and this week's challenge, motorcross motor biking. Both boys suffered a number of injuries making the show, and the crash poor Darren has in the above clip is peer-through-your-fingers-and-wince stuff. Happily, though, they're both still in one (very fine, we might add) piece, and as well as doing all the scary challenges they also make us laugh...a lot! Have a watch of the clip above and tell us what you think. We're absolutely hooked already. Oh, and you can now follow Matt and Darren together on Twitter. Just click here!
