Bear begins a third series in which two groups of eight men and women are left on an uninhabited island with no more than a few basic tools. Both groups are abandoned on the opposite side of the same island, but neither group knows that the other is there, will you also watch it? It starts 9pm on ch4  |

"Were the other two series any good mate?"
Yes, they were pal, it is interesting to see what kind of things they will do you know from basically nothing.

"Will give it a watch. Bears got nothing on Levison Wood though. He only really narrates it, it's normal people"
Yup that's what I mean where as Wood lives it. |

It's an interesting programme even just for the group dynamics and decision making process the groups make.
It also shows how inept a lot of people are without everyday facilities and luxuries. Worth a watch. |

No he just walked the Nile from source to sea and the whole Himalayas. With a camera buddy and some friends popping up on the route. |

I really like this show. I think it's a bit shitty that they have to kill animals just for a show but apart from that it's cool.. I'd try it but not on t.v lol |

"I love this show. Last year I thought Lauren was exactly the sort of girl who is a fabulous role model for girls up and down the country. The Scottish chick got right up my nose though.  "
Especially when she found that can of iron bru, her accent annoyed the shit out of me  |

The guys a bit of a fool.
As a nutritionist of 34yrs I can tell you for fact there is NEVER a situation where you should drink your own pee nor should you EVER pee on a wound  a good old spiders web would be the choice for a wound.
Ray Mears,Les Stroud,Matt Graham & Cody Lundin know their stuff

I would agree with you on the open wound bit, although many years ago in Zimbabwe, I came across 2 guys holding a man down while a 3rd urinated in his eyes. Turns out a cobra spat in his face and there was no water for miles, this saved his eyesight. |

"The women made fire, impressive.
I hope you're not suggesting it was impressive because they were women."
No I didnt. Was comparing as they did it before the men. |

"How's Erika Roe doing on it?
According to my mum, she looked after me a few times when I was very little and we lived in Africa  "
She's an interesting character. I'm on the fence though cause whilst I think she's ballsy, she's giving the anti-men vibe. I'm all for feminism but I'm not keen on unnecessary man hating.  |

After they put the net in the sea, they had problems to swim back cos of strong currents, one of them ended up few miles away but made it to the camp few hours later, they did catch a shark in the net, it was a good episode |

Yes, it was really good, I think cos they didnt cook the turkey long enough. So he got bad from it and it was a bit scary there in the end when he fell down the cliffs. |

No Shag, he ate cooked bones and they damaged his bowel and rectum as they came out. |

I see yes. I might of missed that bit, yeah it is not a good idea to eat bones, at least it did come out in the end there. |

I used a survival tip I learned off Bear Griller. One night I was lost, it was dar, pelting down with rain, no stars to navigate by, no survival gear, no mobile signal and all I had on me was an Amex card.
So I checked into the nearest Holiday Inn.
Ray Mears is the man, Boar Griller is just a wannabe showbiz survival celeb. |

I knew it was going to happen the second he decided to put his foot down so low in regards to the other :P. Unfortunate for him indeed, good bloke just made a really bad decision. |
