Shine TV are looking for doctors and medics for the new series of Channel 4’s Bafta winning The Island with Bear Grylls


Do you ever secretly wonder what would happen if you were stranded on a desert island?

Stripped of 21st century comforts, do you think you could survive?

Shine TV are looking for doctors and medics for the new series of Channel 4’s Bafta winning The Island with Bear Grylls.

In previous series, the volunteers were stripped of all the comforts of civilisation, and cast away on a remote deserted island. They filmed themselves, and shared their raw and exhilarating story of survival. This year there is also a prize.

They are looking for people who are fit and able to participate, of all ages (18+), each with their unique skillset, from a variety of backgrounds and professions who are confident in their ability to thrive but do not need any experience in adventure or survival pursuits to participate.  They will cover reasonable pre-agreed loss of earnings for everyone who participates.

The closing date for applications is Monday 8th October 2018.
