ITV is investigating why the wrong episode of Slow Train Through Africa with Griff Rhys Jones was aired on Friday night (April 10) .
The show launched last week with the fourth episode, rather than the first.
The series follows Rhys Jones's journey southwards from north Africa.
But from the first episode, seen by 2.4 million people, it appeared his journey began in Namibia, in the south west of the continent.
An ITV spokeswoman said to Broadcast Now: "The episode that played out last Friday did not correspond to the running order as billed, and we're looking into how this happened."
The series will now be broadcast in its original order, but with fourth episode left out.
