“I’m completely butt-naked in the forest and I’ve just seen some bear scat. I think I’m losing my mind.” On the bright side, it might not have been a bear. This new adventure contest (adapted from a US template) – which looks to test its participants almost to destruction – is set in an area of rural Canada that we’re told is also home to numerous cougars and wolves. Armed only with GoPro cameras and 10 survival items of their choosing, contestants are dumped in the wilderness – and the last participant to bail wins £100k. Very quickly, one contender contrives to bury an axe in his own leg – but the others fare little better, struggling with fire, food and assorted wildlife. Phil Harrison
