As a series, started well, but the contrivance of how the ‘hunters’ got their clues was starting to wear thin by the end.
Does anyone else think that the way they picked up the couple in the caravan park last week was beyond plausible? I imagine that the producers realised they were just going to sit tight in that caravan for the month, which would make boring telly, and just arranged to have them eliminated.
And this week – wanted posters going up in a remote welsh town without them having a clue that the girl was there.
Without the student grassing them up, they wouldn’t have had any kind of finish to the show, which is also a bit suspicious.
Basically, it looks like the cameramen told the producers/hunters pretty much everything, and they then decided how much of that information they’d be able somehow to access, which is a bit different from starting with a blank page.
And sending them all to the same spot at a pre-arranged time may have added some suspense, but basically was a second chance to get the folk they’d failed to catch.
