Eleven ordinary people from all over the UK have turned fugitive as Hunted returned to screens. On Sunday night the games began as the group try and outrun an elite team of hunters for 23 days in a bid to win share of £100,000.
The fugitives who the hunters, which include assistant chief constable of Cleveland Police Lisa Theaker, must catch include an ex-military veteran, serving police officer and mother of two; a couple who are experienced urban explorers; two profoundly deaf young men 'in the prime of their life'; two sisters who have something to prove to their mum; and a mother of four who is hoping to evade detection with her grown-up son.
And in a major twist, for the first time on Hunted the fugitives must make their escape from an island, the Isle of Wight, under the ever-watchful eye of the hunter helicopter which is streaming live video direct to HQ. As the hunters circle the fugitives, they must work out how to get off the island without being caught.
