Survivor is set to return to UK screens next year after more than 20 years, the BBC has announced. The psychological gameshow is one of the world’s most successful TV formats with 50 versions of the show globally.
The show will see 20 Britons marooned in a tropical location where they will go head-to-head to win "physical and psychological challenges". The UK adaptation has been commissioned by BBC One and BBC iPlayer and will run for 16 episodes.
Only one contestant will be crowned the Ultimate Survivor and take home a cash prize. The hour long episodes show the contestants divided into two “tribes” who battle it out to “out last” the other team until only one tribe remains.
