A reboot of the reality TV show Survivor will be broadcast on the BBC next year, it has been revealed. A brand new UK adaption of the popular competition show will air across 16 episodes on BBC One in 2023.
The series last appeared on our screens back in the early noughties where it aired on ITV across two seasons. But now, 20 new players from across the UK will take on the challenge of being stranded in a tropical location, where they'll be divided into two tribes in the "ultimate physical and psychological gameshow".
The BBC has promised "a compelling test of brains, brawn and betrayal" as the contestants will compete to “outwit, out play and outlast their rivals”. After a number of players are eliminated, the tribes will merge and continue to battle it out, as only one can be crowned the 'Ultimate Survivor' and take home the cash prize.
