Dispensing with the familiar comfort of the sofa, Louise Minchin dispatches us into a gruelling fight for survival on a remote Scottish island in the depths of winter. No stranger to celebrity herself, the writer has thrillingly captured the potential fall-out from the most ambitious – and most lucrative – reality survival show ever devised. Dump ten celebrity egos far from the reassuring safety of bright lights on to an island bristling with hidden cameras and get them to outshine their competitors whilst concealing their own dark secrets. The prize is to die for…

But when a contestant winds up dead, it becomes clear that they are not just fighting for the prize, they are fighting for their lives. 

Louise Minchin is best known for her time on BBC Breakfast's red sofa, but she has also enjoyed a career in various other TV roles, including I’m a Celebrity.

She certainly knows the ropes!
