[TV] Hunted . Series on Channel Four

[Rogero]

Anyone watching this.? I love this series and it open your eyes as to how they can track people down . Next week is the last episode and there is a local interest. I do not want to say too much but if you get a chance have a watch as it is quite addictive. Get it on playback.

By local interest do you mean east of Brighton, west of Eastbourne local interest?

 

[Sheebo]

Agreed it’s good but I wonder how much is staged. If you have a camera man following you around everywhere you’re gonna stand out too. Also the editing is blatantly done for ‘dramatic effect’ all the time.

This. Like the 2 brothers from Sussex: hope they get the winnings.

 

[Rogero]

Yes, it must be strange having a camera man with you especially if you do a runner.

 

[Garry Nelson's teacher]

I’ve watched it since the first series and think you have to come to terms with the fact it’s entirely scripted and staged before you can enjoy it.

Cynic: you'll be telling us that wrestling is fixed next...………………..

After one episode I could not sleep as I kept thinking where I would disappear to.

Apply to be on the next one? Although you have to commit to 6 weeks away from home for filming. That includes the hotels which they put you up in and also a monetary payment for missing work for that period of time.

There are rules to going on the run in this show, which includes telling them which contacts you intend to use, you must at some point try and get one over on the hunters, make a visit to your home etc.

Me too. And I realised that for once my complete and utter horror of all things techno might actually be an advantage. It's almost always their mobile phone usage that sinks them. (It also helps to have absolutely no mates, of course!)

Always amuses me that the static CCTV cameras tend to follow the fugitives!

I'd join the Albion U23 squad.

Often thought the best way to hide for three or four weeks would be to throw away my mobile, and become a rough sleeper in central London. They are completely invisible to the vast majority of people.

And another thing I hate is when some nasty busybody front bottom, giving them a lift or a beer in a pub, shops them for a reward of £200.

Are they not allowed burner phones? Started with this series and wondered why using their own or asking member of public who seems to always grass them up.

My dad gave a fugitive a lift to Bristol and a drink in his pub....didn’t grass him up though.

 

[Sidwell Jnr]

Have to use 2 different cash points on different days as well. Like most 'reality' shows its becoming more staged/scripted each series

I know these brothers, nicest blokes you could possibly meet. Hope they win too. (They won't tell me the result!).
