[dramatic rock music plays]
[whistles]
[music fades]
-[Lottie] Every time you lose, so moody. -Shut up.
-You're so rude. -[Kola] Don't talk to me.
-Why are you shouting? -Worst loser ever.
-[Kola] You don't need to talk to me. -Walk away, then.
[tense music plays]
Men. [chuckles]
I've dated an actor before. I know…
-[Una] Yeah. -The ego is…
-He can say sorry to me. Yeah. -Yeah, he should say sorry to you.
[Lottie] Do you know what it is with actors?
They're used to people walking on eggshells around them.
If they ever have a kick-off or anything, people are always, "Oh, it's fine."
You know? Should just…
And that's why he kicks off like that
and expects everyone to just pander around him
and make him feel okay.
Also, if you can't handle a disagreement, maybe you shouldn't be in here
with… with people that are mature.
-I don't know. -[Una] Mm.
[music rises, fades]
[monkeys chattering]
[low, foreboding music plays]
[Bear] This end of Bear Hunt
gets more competitive,
ever more dynamic.
The margins get ever smaller.
[tense music plays]
Ultimately, the person that is going home…
[music builds]
-[music abates] -…is you, Shirley.
Thank you.
I would say, you should be proud of yourself.
-You are a remarkable lady. -Thank you.
You've never given up.
You've shown your spirit, your resilience.
-Thank you. [chuckles] -[Bear] Well done.
[helicopter blades whirring]
I've had the most extraordinary time being chased by Bear.
What I've learned is that age does not define you,
and you can do anything you put your mind to.
I will forever, in my heart, remember this
as being the most phenomenal experience I've ever had.
Amazing. Ooh.
[sniffles]
[bird squawking]
[gates clank, creak]
[Lottie gasps] Oh my God. Who is it?
-Zuu! -[Una and Lottie] Oh!
-[laughs] -[triumphant music plays]
-He got out! -[Lottie] He got out!
-[Steph] Yes! -[Una laughs]
[Steph squeals]
-[laughs] -[Steph] You legend!
-I'm super wet. -I don't care.
Oh my God, you did it!
-You said you would, and you did. -[Steph] Yes! I bloody knew you would.
[Kola] I know that me and Zuu, we've butt heads while we've been here,
but if I wanted a sympathetic ear
and someone that can actually come back with some valid advice,
then he's the man.
We were worried because you went without camouflage.
-We thought… -[Big Zuu] I know!
-A bold move. -[Lottie] We thought that was a bold move.
Now are we all gonna go in with no camouflage next time?
-Yeah. -[Big Zuu] It was intense.
I feel like I've proved that size isn't an issue in here, you know?
It's about your heart, it's about what's on the inside,
and how you use your mind.
And we all got different strengths,
and I feel that's what this has proved, that you can't judge a book by its cover.
-[Steph gasps] The gate! The gate! -Oh, the gate. The gate.
-[Lottie] Joe. -Oh my days!
Oh my God. You did it!
[Una] You did it.
-[Steph] Joe, well done! -All right?
-[Lottie] Oh God. -Give us a hug.
[Steph] What happened? Did he catch you?
He caught me. I just basically, like, let my guard down.
He came up behind me and just pulled me to the ground.
-You didn't know he was there? -I didn't even know.
-I didn't know he was there. -Was that scary?
It was scary, and then after that,
I was just quite quickly just really annoyed.
And I was like, "I should've--"
-Don't. It was your first time there. -Yeah.
Yeah.
-Well done. -[all] Yeah, well done.
-Cheers. -[Steph] Amazing.
[Big Zuu] Shirley, man. [sucks teeth]
There's definitely gonna be a big hole in our camp now that Shirley has gone
because she was the mama bear to everyone.
She gave advice to everyone.
She fixed everything that happened in here.
She just kind of knew how to address everything,
which is something really important in camp.
It will be sad, so we'll see how we… we do without her.
[squawks]
[Big Zuu] Yo.
Wagwan? Are you good? You good?
Lottie started getting rude, so I told her to shut up.
-What was it over? -You.
-Why? -They thought you'd go out.
I said, "What?"
"He was mad yesterday that he… that he lost."
-Yeah. -"No, he wasn't."
I said, "Yes, he was." Said, "No, he wasn't."
I said, "Yes, he was." Like, "No, he wasn't."
I was like, "Why you keep on saying 'no' to everything over something I know?"
-Just be easy, bro. -I'm easy.
-I know you are. -I really am.
I just think it's a big misunderstanding. It's over something so trivial.
Like, it's… it's over… it's over nothing, you know?
It's unfortunate because I know how close they are.
I know how much of a… like, a friendship they have.
I think, personally, easy today.
Pull homegirl over.
Even if she don't listen to you, at least you tried, bro.
-It will show your character, bro. -Okay.
I'm gonna go do my ting. I appreciate you hearing me out.
In a… in a bit.
[Big Zuu] Kola, I know, sometimes he expresses in different ways,
but he's got a heart of gold.
He's such a, such a nice guy.
Hopefully they can come to some sort of understanding.
Oh my God. I stink.
-Are you guys okay? -[Una] Everything's good.
[Lottie] Yeah. I mean, pff, as far as… I don't know.
[Big Zuu] Well, good.
Kola told me you lot had a little one-two argument.
But I told him that you lot just need to talk and…
-In his own time, in your time. -[Lottie] Yeah.
He can apologize to me when he's ready.
[Big Zuu] Yeah, when he's ready, he'll definitely speak to you.
I'm allowed to disagree.
-[Big Zuu] Yeah. -And he didn't take that very well.
-Regardless… -[Lottie] Yeah.
-When he's ready, he'll talk to you. -Yeah, yeah.
When he comes over, apologizes to me, I'll speak to him.
Hey, man, we're good. All good. We're good, man.
[expectant music plays]
[water trickling]
[Kola] For the better of the group, I will go and patch things up with Lottie,
to squash the… the beef, you know?
I wanna clear the record.
-Lottie, can I talk to you? -[music fades]
[Lottie] Yeah, sure.
Look, listen, I know we argued earlier, and I don't wanna argue with you.
I don't… I don't wanna argue either, all right?
Yeah, it was unfortunate what happened. Tempers flare.
What I said, I shouldn't have said.
You know, we said some things we sh… we both shouldn't have said.
Uh, going forward, I don't wanna argue with you.
I've… I've come to respect you as a person.
So have I, which is why it disappointed me even more, your reaction, quite honestly.
It was really upsetting, really disappointing to me.
Well, you… don't you think that your reaction was bad as well or…?
I think I wouldn't have had my reaction had it not been for yours.
I'm allowed to have a different opinion.
-[Kola] Of course. Of course. -I'm allowed to disagree with you.
The thing is, Kola, as well, when you're upset about something,
everyone in here suffers for it.
I am apologizing for my behavior, of course,
but what I'm saying to you is that, in that situation, yeah,
I was matching fire with fire.
-Yeah. -You understand, it takes two to tango?
If you know what I'm saying.
But you were the one who ignited that fire in me.
I would never go off like that unless you snap at me
and speak to me a type of way that makes me feel disrespected.
What I was saying wasn't… wasn't… wasn't… wasn't incorrect.
-I can't deal with immature people, and-- -I'm not immature in any way.
[Lottie] It's the way you handled the situation.
I'm a grown man. Remember, it's not just me.
I'm not arguing with myself, my shadow. I'm arguing with you.
Yes, you argued with me because you did something wrong.
But I was right.
[huffs] How are you not understanding this?
How can you not just come to me and say, "Lottie,
I'm sorry about what happened earlier, let's just move on"?
You still have to be right.
You always have to be competitive.
You always have to be sulking. It always has to be something.
It's actually exhausting.
-All right, good night, Lottie. -I don't wanna be in your team tomorrow.
I don't wanna… Swear to God, if I'm in your team tomorrow, I'm moving.
[Kola] I don't care.
I tried to patch things up with her, and it massively backfired in my face.
And I'm too old for all that high-school behavior.
[low, tense music plays]
-My love, are you okay? -I'm okay.
[Big Zuu] It's less about the initial thing.
Yeah. I just didn't deserve to have someone snap at me like that.
Has he tried to apologize a bit?
He said, "I'm sorry, but you need to take accountability for what you did."
-[Joe] All right. -Which isn't really an apology.
[Big Zuu] He said sorry.
Whoever drops their pride and nips it in the bud will be the bigger person.
He just doesn't know how to say "I'm sorry"
and let it be just "I'm sorry."
[Big Zuu] As much as Lottie has love and respect for him,
she needs to recognize that being rude to him
and… and speaking to him in a certain way
is never gonna lead to him being different.
If she wants to see a change in Kola, she has to address it in a different way.
-Lottie. -[Lottie] Mm-hmm?
What's the word that is on your cheek?
[Lottie snickers softly]
Lead with love, man.
You got love in your heart, man. You're a lover.
[Lottie scoffs]
I'm so glad that Zuu has spoken to me.
I really can't be bothered to argue anymore.
You know, there were some things that I said
that I probably shouldn't have shouted at Kola.
Kola, I'm sorry, all right? I don't wanna do this anymore, okay?
I really don't… I really don't wanna do this, okay?
Let's just leave it. Do you know what it is for me?
It's I've… I've had, like… And this is the thing…
-[Kola] All right, come. -Yeah.
-They'll be all right. -[Una] Yeah.
[Big Zuu] They'll be all right.
[sniffles] I've had situations in my life when people have spoken to me
the way that you spoke to me, and then I've let it go.
It's happened again and again and again, and it's been worse and worse and worse.
And I've come back feeling broken as a person.
[sniffles]
So now, I don't let people speak to me like that…
-Yeah. -…without sticking up for myself.
All right?
Yeah, I understand, and that's why I came in there
to apologize for my behavior earlier,
and then you started cooking me.
-I was like, "I'm getting cooked." -It didn't…
I will say, it didn't seem like an apology
when you came in and said, "I'm sorry, but it takes two to tango." [chuckles]
-And I was-- -No, yeah, I never meant it like that.
I meant it like… I started it,
and then
it went to a place that I should… that I should never have let it get to.
I'm sorry for reacting the way that I did.
I think we're in a good place now.
We just need to move on and forget about it.
Kola, we have to admit something here now, okay?
-You don't take losing very well at all. -I don't.
[laughs] Thank you!
-Thank you! That's all I've wanted. -[Kola chuckles]
We've had a breakthrough, finally.
Kola has admitted he is not a good loser.
[sighs]
I want you to announce that to the group.
-All right, I'll do it right now. -Right, do it.
Guys, Kola's got something to say to the group.
All right, here we go.
-[Kola] I've something to say. -[Joe] Yeah?
I don't take losing very… very well.
[all laugh]
-[Lottie] We are all shocked. -And I had to admit that.
-Oh, well, I mean… -[Lottie] We're shocked.
-Hey. -[Steph] Yay!
[clapping]
[Lottie] No, guys, we are all fine now.
-We have come to an agreement. -[Big Zuu] Good!
The Brady Bunch is back!
-Back together! -[Una] Yay.
[upbeat music plays]
[Kola] Now that it's squashed, I feel a million times better, like,
and probably gonna be a stronger friendship for it,
because everything's out in the open, you know?
[Big Zuu] Love you all.
Be safe.
[music fades out]
[mellow music plays]
[rooster crows]
Oh my days. What, this guy… left another note?
-Yeah. -Yeah.
New note on the table.
Ha! "The River of Fire."
What does that even mean, bruv?
Some oxymoron, bruv.
Yeah.
I am not the best in water,
so if it's got anything to do with water,
I'm gonna need some strong swimmers on my side.
[foreboding music plays]
[gates clank, creak]
[Kola] Oh, look. Why is… why is the door open?
Oh, there's Bear. Look. There's Bear.
Oh, he's coming out of the pit. Does he live in the pit?
[Big Zuu] He must live in the pit.
Okay, come and join me down here by the firepit.
[foreboding music continues]
-[Steph] Hello. -New day.
And a new challenge awaits.
The dial is definitely turning up a little bit now.
And as you've probably gathered from my note this morning,
the next challenge that you'll face will require you to light a fire,
so I'm gonna be giving you just some simple tips
on fire-lighting in the wild.
To use the back of this, not the blade, to light fire with a fire steel.
-And we're just creating… sparks. -[Steph and Lottie] Wow.
[Kola] I came here to learn.
The one thing that we humans can do
that separates us from the animals is create fire.
[Bear] So this is called kindling.
That's called tinder.
And then that's your fuel.
Joe, I want you to become the team ninja of fire.
Just lots of… Just do lots of them.
Just gently… Just feel it, how that works.
And that's great.
-Boom! -[Steph] Wow!
-[Joe] Right. -You see what was so nice about that?
-[Una] Yeah, nice and calm. Yeah. -Control. It's like you only need one.
[Joe] I really, really wanna win.
I wanna light a raging fire, and I absolutely wanna smash this one.
-[Bear] All right. -[Steph] Excellent. Thank you.
-Thanks, Bear. Thank you. -[Big Zuu] Thank you.
[Joe] Cheers. Thank you.
[foreboding music builds]
[dramatic drum music plays]
[birds chirping]
[Lottie] Right, okay.
This could be one of our last challenges, so let's smash it.
Let's have a really good time,
because one of us will be gone tomorrow, or more.
-Ah! -So let's go!
-Whoo! -[Una] Yeah! Let's go!
[Big Zuu] That was really inspiring.
-She's like Holly Willoughby but smaller. -[Steph] She is, yeah.
[Big Zuu] Ready for the challenge.
[music builds]
[music abates]
[birds whistling]
[drums pound]
[Holly] Only six remain in the Bear Hunt,
and they're making their way here to Rio Colorado
to take part in a race to avoid the Bear Pit.
But who will survive the River of Fire?
[drums pound]
In this challenge,
you'll be racing head-to-head in your teams along the river.
You've got to pick up your rafts and paddles,
inflate the rafts and head down the canyon,
grabbing everything that you think you might need,
before arriving at the beach and building a fire.
The first team to get a pot of boiling water over a fire will win.
It's that simple.
So we're gonna need two teams of three.
Zuu, you escaped the Bear Pit yesterday, so you get to choose your team.
-Who's it gonna be? -I'm gonna go for Una and Steph.
Una and Steph, well done. That makes up Zuu's team.
Instantly, I knew I had to pick Una and Steph.
Two people I know I can communicate with,
and I just knew that they would be less erratic
compared to Lottie, Kola, and Joe.
-[Holly] Happy? -Yes.
-Love this team. -[Holly] Good.
I feel really strongly about our team.
After our little argument with Kola yesterday,
it just makes our bond stronger.
And it's gone really well with Joe twice,
so I'm not sure how this could go wrong.
So we've got our teams. All we need now is Bear.
He's over there. How are we starting, Bear?
Okay, so this challenge is starting from up here.
With a jump off this cliff into the water.
[dramatic sting]
I'd like somebody to demonstrate this, really.
Need a volunteer.
[dramatic music plays]
-I'm thinking… -Who do you want?
Holly.
[Lottie and Una] Holly?
-[Bear] What do you reckon? -This is not what I signed up for.
Legs together, hands across the chest,
spotting your landing and then committing to it.
Okay, I… [murmurs nervously] I don't wanna look down.
Hold on. Okay, I'm picking a spot.
-Here I go. -One, two, three, go!
-[Holly shrieks] -[cheering, applause]
[Una laughs]
[Steph] Please come back up.
-[cheering continues] -[Lottie] Yeah!
-[Una] Well done. -Holly, that was sweet. Textbook.
[dramatic drum music plays]
[all cheer]
[all laughing]
Why is he so cool, bruv? He's just so cool.
-[Bear] Ready? You remember what to do? -[Holly] Go on, Zuu.
-[Bear] Feet together, arms crossed. -Yeah.
Focus, commit.
-Yeah. -And go.
[Steph] Ooh! Woo-hoo!
-[Joe and Lottie] Yes. -[cheering]
Jumping into that river, first, may I add,
first, it was a big drop.
All the way down, I was praying that I'd get up.
When I got up, I said, "Oh, I made it. I've… I've survived."
Okay, cross the river, go to the bag. Go.
Okay, next, here we go.
-Oh, I'm so scared. -[Bear] Okay.
-I'm really scared. -I know. Of course we are. We all are.
-Ready? One, two, three, go. Beautiful. -[Una] Yes, Lottie!
[Steph] Ah…
[Bear] Well done, Steph.
[Kola] Well done, Joe.
-Whoo! Everyone dispatched. -[Holly] So good.
-[Bear] It begins. -[groans]
[Holly] Once the teams have retrieved and inflated their rafts,
they'll be in a head-to-head race down the river
to collect all the supplies they need to help them light their fires
and boil the water at the end of the course.
-[Lottie] Oh my God. That was terrifying. -Refocus. Get going.
Right, just take your time.
Take your time, everyone.
[Joe] This bag, this is the thing we use to put air in.
Joe, straight off the bat… smart.
-Most people can't figure that out. -[Holly] I can't figure it out.
-So it's a bag. This bag, you seal it. -I thought it was his trouser leg.
-You squeeze it and inflate it. -Oh, I see.
-That fills up with air, and you push it. -[Bear] Look.
-[Joe] Squeeze air in like that. -[Lottie] Joe did well.
He is amazing in a team,
and every team I've been in with him, we've won.
It's actually working! It's actually working! Okay.
-[Big Zuu] What's this? -Um… don't worry about that.
-I'm not sure. I think we need… -That's a bag to put stuff. Keep going.
-[Big Zuu] Just blow? -[Una] Just blow for now.
Air in? Yeah? Seal.
The blue team were ahead when it came to inflating their raft,
so from the beginning, it felt like we was losing.
I'm seeing them do the mad ting, bro. We're gonna have to copy them.
[Steph] What is it?
And we're like, "How do you do it? What is it that you do?"
And to be honest, we looked at the other team at that point,
and basically, we copied.
Yeah, I'll… I'll admit that.
So you squeeze it like a bagpipe.
Right, now if you squeeze down from your end,
and I'll squeeze from mine.
There we go. Finally, guys. Finally.
Inflating the raft just felt impossible.
Once we kinda understood how you get it done,
it was still impossible.
So we lost a lot of time.
[Lottie] Let's go, Kola.
[Bear] And remember to keep a look out
for anything you might need to build a fire.
As a team, we came flying out the gates.
-All right, bruv, keep up. -Okay, let's go.
[Lottie] Wee!
All seemed to be going well…
[Joe] Okay, nice. Nice, nice, nice.
…until, as soon as we got into the water…
-Paddle together. Stop panicking. -Oh, sorry. Okay.
You need to listen to me.
…the communication just went.
-[Joe] Kola, you okay? -[Kola] Yeah.
[Lottie] Kola, come on.
Kola was not good in the raft.
[Kola chuckles]
[huffs]
That raft is so hard, that single raft.
I don't know, mate. Left is right, right is left.
I'm going around in circles.
Serious? [groans]
[chuckles] I can't go anywhere, bro.
-[resonant pinging] -[tense music plays]
[Una] Go on. Come on, come on, come on.
-[Steph] Yeah, you're nearly there. -[Big Zuu blowing]
-[Steph] You're nearly there. -Guys, keep going. You need to catch up.
[Una] We started off quite far behind.
We were struggling a bit, you know, to get the air in,
but we finally did get in.
[Steph] Right, we're done.
Green Team, the blues have got a head start on you, but you can catch up.
-[Steph] Yeah. -Off you go.
Zuu, why don't you go in this one, and we'll go in that?
[Big Zuu] I don't think it makes sense. I'll jump in this.
If it can handle Kola, it'll handle me, brah.
[Steph] Zuu's adamant that he wants to get in the single raft,
and we're like, "No, no, no."
So I ended up kind of being quite bossy with him.
-If I sit on the back of that, it'll sink. -We're wasting time. Let's go.
I'm like, "Zuu, you're going in the double one."
-[Big Zuu] I'm in. -We will catch up with them, okay?
-Yeah. -Right.
-Thank you, guys. -Well done. Teamwork.
We've got this! Let's go, man!
[tense music continues]
[resonant pinging]
-Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. -You good?
Look. Wood. Okay?
On you come, Kola! Good lad! Well done!
Me and Joe ended up being the ones that actually collected all of the tools
that we needed to make the fire.
Okay.
[Lottie] We were far ahead of the other team.
-Here we go. -Did you get stuff?
[Joe] We got two bits of wood. Okay.
I feel that me and Joe did a pretty good job.
I think Kola did a pretty bad job, if I'm honest.
He was not good in the raft.
Kola, just small movements. Stay calm and collected.
Oh, [bleep] sake, man.
[resonant pinging]
[whimsical music plays]
-[Steph] Can you see anything? -[Una] Can we see anything, Zuu?
[Big Zuu] I ain't seen nothing yet.
Wait for us, Zuu. You're about to hit the rapids.
It was slow and steady.
We're way behind the other team, but we're staying calm.
[Big Zuu grunts]
Oh, my boat!
Then it got a little bit chaotic. [chuckles]
-Right, we'll have to get out. -[Una] Yeah.
-Can we get out now? -[Steph] Yeah, let's. [chuckles]
-You all right? -[Una] Yeah.
I'm okay. Stay on it. Stay on it. I'm okay. I'm confident. I'm fine.
But we're all actually supporting each other.
We're traveling together.
Zuu is calm.
-Yeah, yeah, I'm good. -[Steph] He's lost his negativity.
Get that wood. Put it in here, Zuu.
-[Big Zuu] I've got it. -[Steph] We've got this, guys.
[Big Zuu] Thank you, guys. I really appreciate you guys.
Thank you for helping me, guys.
[tense music resumes]
[Lottie] Kola, come on.
-Kola, come on! -On you come, Kola.
When we got to the rapids, things took a bit of a turn for the worst.
[Kola] I hear the noise. I look back. I see…
[mimics pop and air hissing]
My thing's sinking!
The flipping raft is… is… is popped.
And… and it's sinking.
[Lottie] Kola, drag it.
-We shouldn't be too long now. -[Joe] Okay.
[Kola] I'm sinking!
-Everyone breathe. -[Joe] Okay.
We're all good. Like, the others haven't even caught up to us.
[Joe] We're good.
Kola was swimming along, and, like, he seemed like he was okay,
and I kind of thought,
"That kind of works."
Yeah, so they're catching up. You need to be quicker.
[Joe] They're behind us now, so we've gotta go.
-[Lottie] Kola, come on! -[Joe] Keep going.
My team leaves me. Like, we got so panic mode.
[tense music continues]
[resonant pinging]
[music builds]
-Right, let's go. -Let's go. Keep going.
-[Big Zuu] Are you guys okay? -[Steph] Yeah!
There's a green bag there. There's a green bag there.
[Steph] We are collecting things, putting them in the raft.
They're not too far, guys. Stay motivated.
And then Una and I say to each other,
"Should we just ditch this raft and just put everything in with Zuu?"
-[Big Zuu] Want me to take the stuff? -[Steph] Should we abandon this?
-[Big Zuu] Yeah. Let go. We don't need it. -[Una] Okay.
Much stronger swimming than we are swimming and pushing a raft.
So we'd moved everything into Zuu's raft, and then off we go again.
[Big Zuu] Look at us. Incredible spirit.
[raps] ♪ Yeah, they're in front of us But it don't matter ♪
♪ I'm in the bigger boat 'Cause I'm a little fatter ♪
♪ But I'm gonna go through Have a little splatter ♪
♪ Both of you swim Like it doesn't matter ♪
[resonant ping]
[Holly] Once the teams arrive at the beach,
they have to use their resources to light a fire
and boil a pot of water as quickly as they can.
[Lottie] Come on, Kola. You got this.
-[Joe] On the beach? -[Lottie] Yep.
When we got to the beach, we were still quite far ahead.
And the blues have made it.
-Ah! Oh my God. Oh my God. Stop. -[Joe] You okay? You okay? You okay?
Okay, so where's your teammate, guys?
-[Joe] He's here. -[Lottie] Right here.
[Bear] Where's his boat?
-We lost it. -[Joe] It sank.
[Lottie] Kola got left behind,
but we were still really far ahead of the… the other team.
[rousing music plays]
[Big Zuu] They're right in front of us. I can see them.
We've definitely caught up.
Stay strong, guys.
[music halts]
-Make the raft with the big bits. -One, two, three, four, like a square.
Yeah? Get it down. Get that stuff on top.
It's not always good when there's loads of people
crowding around a fire…
[Kola] No, no, no, no. Look, look, look, look. Joe, Joe, Joe.
…who have got different ideas about what they wanna do to it.
-[Lottie] No, add alcohol to the fire. -[Kola] No, no, no.
We're… we're here. Let's go!
We reached the shore, and it's very clear
that the others were very, very far ahead of us
because they've almost started their fire.
-Can you get the petroleum jelly… -I'll get water.
…and start smearing it on this?
It's like game over, basically.
Remember, this is a race, guys.
-Let's get it. Let's get fiery. -Where do we go?
Over there.
-All right. -[Lottie] There? Cool.
[Joe] Right, there we go. Let's go.
All right, let's keep this going 'cause, honestly… don't let this go out.
Don't let this go out. Okay, let's get it…
Not… not… not that yet. Not that yet. Tiny stuff. Tiny stuff.
It's going out!
It was a bit tense, but, I mean, we were trying to light a fire in a race,
and it wasn't going well, so there was a bit of frustration.
[Bear] Use what you've got. Be resourceful.
We just all started doing stuff.
You know, we built the main bottom,
and then Una was adding stuff, and then I was adding stuff,
and then Zuu starts doing the sparks thing.
-The other way. Towards you. That's it. -That's it. Flick it up. Remember, flick.
Flick. Flick.
[Steph] Right. Now let's start getting the "kinder" on.
Spark… and the fire starts.
-Right, get some water. -[Holly] Oh, guys, well done!
-No. -[Lottie] I'm gonna try…
[Bear] Remember what I taught you about the fire-starting.
Back of the knife, Lottie.
Angle it in. Gently. Gently.
Give us it back. Give us it back.
[Lottie] I thought we might light it that way.
-[Bear] Okay. Do not waste it. -[Joe] Right.
Right, let's go. Right, let's go. These little bits. These little bits.
Dry stuff. Dry stuff, yeah? Get these on.
-Break these up. Put these on. -Don't smother it.
Only dry stuff in the fire. Only dry stuff.
-[Lottie] All right. -Okay.
The boys were chaotic.
Oh, no. Not yet.
-No, no, no. -We need to show this some love.
You know, Joe was really stressed.
Lolly sticks. Where are the lolly sticks? More Vaseline on there.
[Lottie] We don't need to add all this. It's way too much on there.
-Let it burn. -We have to try and increase the size.
You're just putting so much on there. Stop.
Not to be rude, but I felt like I was carrying the team a little bit.
I honestly feel I maybe could've done it better by myself.
It's going out.
-You're smothering it. -I'm not. I'm not. I'm not.
Joe and Lottie start arguing.
-We [bleep]'d this. -We haven't [bleep]'d it.
Lottie starts getting overwhelmed, like she does all the time.
But Joe knows how to make a fire.
And that's it. He was right.
-Right, do it. -I think we're good.
Guys, we've got a fire. We've got water over.
-It needs to boil. It needs to boil. -[Steph] Right.
This threesome, for want of a better phrase,
is totally working.
You guys were miles behind,
and I would say now, you are suddenly now ahead.
[gasping] "Ah," we're like.
I'm looking at the other team. They're all arguing with each other.
And they haven't got a fire going, and I'm like, "Are we gonna do this?"
All we put on top is tiny stuff,
so we're basically just burning a pile of tinder on top of a…
Don't keep blowing it out.
-Oh, that's getting close. -[Holly] Is it getting warm?
I can see bubbles.
I might be ima-- Yeah, it's boiling! It's boiling!
Okay, we're done.
-[Steph and Una] Yes! -We've got boiling water.
-[Lottie] Well done, guys. -Yes!
-I was just so proud of us. -[triumphant music plays]
'Cause it's that classic hare-and-tortoise story.
We just took our time, stayed calm, and worked together as a team.
Oh my gosh!
And we had this euphoric moment of beating the others.
[Big Zuu] You're amazing.
You really helped me so much. Helped me so much.
You guys are great. You lot did it.
We won the challenge, yeah?
"The River of Fire" is "The River of Nothing."
The biggest thing I've learned from this challenge is,
it's not how you start, it's how you finish,
and you should never give up.
[music fades]
First of all, good job.
-[tense music plays] -You guys had no right to lose that.
-Yeah, I know. -Do you know what?
-Turn around. You've now got a fire going. -Oh no.
[Bear] And do you know why you've got a fire going?
Because you're now, like, giving it some space.
You had a fire going five minutes before these guys.
You kept having all the little stuff on the top
and the big stuff underneath it.
You kept putting the little stuff on the top.
-There was nothing for it to burn. -[Lottie] Yeah.
-[Bear] As soon as you leave it… -[Lottie] You were right, Joe.
…you've given it space and oxygen, it's… it's away.
-Yeah. -[Kola] Really good start.
Terrible finish from us, all of us, across the board.
[tense music continues]
[Bear] Anyway, it is what it is.
What I would say is you guys deserve to win.
And I like that because that's a never-give-up spirit.
It's like you never say die.
You work together, you figure it out, and it saved you from the Bear Pit.
So well done.
Well done, Green Team.
That was the ultimate comeback for you.
That does mean, however, the blues, it's Bear Pit time tomorrow.
So I suggest you head back to base camp and get yourself prepared for that, okay?
-[Lottie] All right. -Put this one behind you now, okay?
Well done, everyone.
-We won the challenge! [growls] -[Una] We won!
-I can't… Like… -Come on!
That was just… Like, we were so far behind.
-[Bear] Well done. -[Holly] Well done, guys.
[Lottie] Where we lacked was teamwork, if I'm honest.
I think there wasn't enough communication.
We should've stopped.
Yeah, we should have literally just gone back and got him immediately. Yeah.
[tense music continues]
[Big Zuu] Good day, guys.
[Steph] Gosh. We haven't got long left here now.
-[Big Zuu] No. -[Lottie] Could be one of our last nights.
-[Steph] I know. -[Big Zuu] Could be.
[Steph] But you guys got the raft up so quick.
Yeah. I mean, it just kind of fell apart a little bit.
It was very chaotic for us.
-[Joe] Like, that was a bit… -Yeah.
There were things that we could've all done better in that.
But you can't think, "I could've done that."
Or "What if it had been this or that?" We've done it now.
[Kola] You know, no one likes losing.
Yeah? And because of certain things that happened,
I'm not saying nothing
when it comes to, like, any sort of agg, because I know where it leads to.
[somber contemplative music plays]
-[Steph] Good night, Zuu. -Good night.
-[Steph] Are you all right, Joe? -Yeah. I--
Did you see him? He was on standby, boy.
-[Kola and Steph laugh] -[Lottie] He was buffering.
[Joe] I'm always buffering.
[all laugh]
-[Lottie yawns] Good night, everyone. -[Una] Good night.
[music ends]
-[waves lapping] -[rooster crows]
-[Kola] Morning, Joseph. -[Joe] Hello. You all right?
How you doing, son?
I've woken up today with a second wind, you know?
Gotta seize the day
and make it a positive one, make it a happy one.
I'm… I'm gonna have fun today, yeah.
-It's all gonna happen. -[Una] Yeah.
-Yeah. -[Kola] I'm not gonna stress myself out.
If it's my final… final day, uh, cool.
What happens happens, innit?
[expectant music plays]
[Lottie] Feeling a little bit anxious this morning.
I'm a bit worried that today it's just gonna be almost impossible.
[Kola] All right.
Shall we suit up?
-Suit up. -[Lottie] Suit up.
-Yeah, let's do it. -Let's go.
[dramatic music plays]
Bear Pit.
-Gonna be my third time. -[Joe] This'll be my second.
This Bear Pit is gonna be tough.
All I've got on my side is that I've been in there before.
I know what a trap looks like.
I know what some of the terrain looks like.
I've got a chance, so I'm not out of it yet.
All right, then. Have a good one, guys.
-[Joe] Have a good one. -[Lottie] You too.
[drums pounding]
[dramatic music continues]
Yesterday's action-packed challenge was anything but smooth sailing.
The green team were out of puff inflating their boat,
and the blue team's fire was a damp squib.
Now I'm about to rain on their parade and send three of them into the Bear Pit.
Joe, Kola, and Lottie, you're gonna be in the Bear Pit for 45 minutes.
[tense music plays]
There are three exits, which can only be used by one person.
So each exit will now require more than one tool to open it.
-[Lottie] Oh. -[Kola] More than one tool.
[groans]
This is gonna be hard, man.
If you're captured by Bear or you fail to escape in time,
you'll automatically be up for elimination.
[dramatic sting]
You know what happens now, guys. It's time to head through those gates.
-Let's go. -[Holly] Go do it.
-Smash it. -[Holly] Into the Bear Pit. Good luck!
-[Lottie] Bye, guys. -[Steph and Una] Bye!
You're amazing!
[dramatic music plays]
[Lottie] Today, I am gonna do everything it takes
to get myself to an exit,
'cause I wanna stay here.
[Kola] In that Bear Pit, ultimately,
I feel like it's already written in the stars,
but I just gotta play the role.
[Joe] I'm as ready as I can be. I will be better than I was last time.
And I hope my lucky streak continues.
-[ominous music plays] -[thunder rumbles]
[Lottie] All right, guys. Back again.
I literally hate this place.
There it is. Three exits.
Three of us. There are three exits. Are you happy to divide these up?
Yeah. What do you guys wanna do?
I'll do the tunnel exit.
-[Joe] Good man. -[Kola] I know where the tunnel is.
I'll try the ladder exit again 'cause I did it last time.
-I'll do 4x4. I know where that is. -[Kola] Cool. Good luck, guys, yeah?
-[Lottie] Good luck, team. Let's get it. -Good luck, guys. Cool.
Okay.
Let's let them know that the hunt's beginning.
-[bang, popping] -Go!
-[tense, suspenseful music plays] -[ticking]
[Kola] I think it's that way.
Oh my God. Where am I?
[music building]
[music abates]
[whispers] Okay, I think I'm just gonna lie in wait here.
All of them are Bear Pit veterans.
They're moving. They're looking the part now.
They're not easy to catch.
-[music continues] -[Lottie sighs]
[whispers] It's that way. I'm gonna go that way.
I've learned that Bear Pit just isn't just about brawn and strength.
[breathes heavily, mutters indistinctly]
I've learned you need to move more like an animal.
[monkey growling]
[whimsical music plays]
Baboon mode, it's about stealth while disguising your human form.
[breathes heavily]
But it's knackering.
[music abates]
I can see it. I can see the truck.
Bear may think that he's seen baboons before,
but he's never seen a baboon quite like this.
[howler monkey growls]
-[tense music pulsing] -[breathing heavily]
I need… a wheel, and I need whatever that is.
[Holly] To escape via the 4x4, Joe needs to reattach the wheel.
-[resonant pinging] -But this time, that requires two tools.
Only when Joe has found the wrench
will he learn the location of the second tool.
-[music building] -[ticking]
[music fades]
-[Big Zuu] They're in the Bear Pit. -[Steph] Yeah.
I think Joe, for me, personally, is the person I think that's gonna come back.
-Mm. -[Big Zuu] What do you think about Kola?
He's got absolutely every capability and skill to get out,
so I wouldn't be shocked if he came back.
What about Lottie? What do you think?
-I think Lottie's coming back. -I do as well.
-Yeah? -She seemed really confident.
Really, really confident.
-[monkey howling] -[tense music resumes]
That was scary. I don't know what that was.
[monkey screeches]
I'm going for the ladder. That's where I got caught last time.
Hopefully the tools won't be too far away.
[whispers] So I need four of these planks.
Where are they? Okay.
They're up by the Caiman Ledge.
[Holly] To exit via the ladder,
Lottie must collect four missing rungs near the Caiman Pool.
If she manages to reach the rungs undetected,
she'll find details of the second tool she needs for her escape.
It definitely was here.
[mutters indistinctly]
[dramatic music plays]
Keep your wits about you, Kola.
Look out for him. Look out for him.
The tunnel exit.
I found it.
But I look at the tunnel, it was full of sand.
And lo and behold, it's got some wooden planks nailed into it.
Shovel.
Black Rock.
I look at the map, I see that Black Rock has what I need.
I've been in Black Rock. I'm a veteran of Black Rock now.
I knew it. I knew it. I knew it.
[music swells]
-[music halts] -[Bear] Okay, let's go.
[ominous music plays]
The tunnel and the ladder exits are on one side of the dry riverbed,
and the 4x4 is on the other.
So the riverbed seems a sensible, central place to position myself.
You know, it's tempting to just use, as a main thoroughfare, this dry riverbed,
'cause it's a great navigational tool to get your bearings.
But it's also like a…
[dramatic sting]
…danger zone.
I'm always gonna be monitoring it.
Really, they should be using the brush, the trees.
The denser, the more horrific the jungle is,
the less likely I'm gonna be there.
I'm inclined to wait here. I've got great cover.
Anyone comes past me, I've got 'em.
-[ticking] -[foreboding music plays]
[resonant pinging]
[Lottie] There's something here.
That's the tunnel.
Okay.
And I see this tunnel where my planks of wood were, to put into the ladder.
The planks are in there and chained up. I have to get a key.
Of course the key is all the way back there.
[Holly] To release the rungs that Lottie needs
to escape via the ladder exit,
she needs to retrieve a key,
which is all the way over the other side of the pit, almost a kilometer away.
So that's actually… It's past the Decision Tree.
Yeah, I'll come back for you. I'll come back for you.
[monkey howls echo]
[guttural howling continues]
Okay, so the fact I can hear the monkeys going crazy
means something or someone has disturbed them.
It'll be a couple of hundred meters down that way.
[resonant pinging]
I'm gonna use this rock… as good cover.
[Kola] ****.
-[breathing heavily] -[ominous music plays]
I get to Black Rock.
Always vigilant.
-[bang echoes] -[bleep]
[Bear] There's Kola.
He's going for the tool.
[Kola] There's a broken shovel.
That must be the two pieces I need to exit the tunnel.
[music builds]
-[bang] -Oh, [bleep].
What was that?
I look to my right, I see Bear.
He's coming for me.
[tense, dramatic music plays]
Now me and Bear are in a footrace.
I'm literally pelting it.
[music building]
[music fades]
[panting heavily]
Kola got away… by the skin of his teeth.
Took his risk in the dry riverbed.
Try and sprint over this terrain, you're gonna twist your ankle.
If he does that, he's in trouble.
I'm just gonna shadow him,
take my time,
and then when it's on my terms, we'll take him.
[Kola] I got chased by Bear.
[breathing heavily]
Got the tool.
Wow. I was so close.
[Holly] Kola may have retrieved the shovel,
but what he failed to notice was the sign revealing he would also need a saw
to escape via the tunnel exit.
I'm tired.
[dramatic drum music plays]
[ticking]
[resonant pinging]
[music fades]
Oh my God. It's there.
I spot where my key is.
I'm in an area called The Shrubs.
I go down. I scope out the area.
Um, okay, so there's a timer when I go in there.
Aw. The key is in a trap, a 30-second trap.
You've got this. Just do it.
-[foreboding music plays] -[ticking]
[panting]
Five, six…
Seven… [sniffles]
Eight, nine, ten…
Oh my God. Untying knots adds so much pressure.
…17, 18, 19…
If I don't get that key, I might be going home.
[music building]
…24, 25, 26, 27…
[music swells]
-[bang] -[music fades]
[birds squawking]
I've got the key. I've got the key. I need to get out of here.
[suspenseful music building]
[up-tempo tense music plays]
[whispers] Okay, so there's someone over there.
I've been following Kola from a distance,
but I've also then just spotted someone else.
Who is it?
Oh, I think that's Joe.
[unsettling music drones]
[Joe] I know I'm approaching my tool,
and it's in this area called the Wild Wood.
There's my tool.
[Joe breathing heavily]
All right.
[suspenseful music plays]
-[rustling] -I heard a noise.
What the [bleep] is that?
[music intensifies]
-[music crescendoes] -[Joe grunts, groans]
[music fades]
[sighs]
[yells]
Good effort.
[both breathing heavily]
Great movement, Joe.
-Give us your hands. -Okay.
-[groans] -Well done.
[Joe pants]
[sighs] For [bleep] sake.
Yeah, I'm gutted. I… I think it's fair.
Um…
Yeah, I just ran out of road, basically. I ran out of road.
-[gunshot echoes] -[Una and Steph gasp] Aw!
-I was not expecting it. -[Una laughs] No.
Who do you think that is who's been caught?
-[Big Zuu trills lips] -[Una] Oh, God knows.
-I really don't know. -I don't know.
[disquieting music plays]
One down. We got work to do.
[Lottie] Blending as a tree.
I am not a tree. I am a lion.
[breathes heavily]
[Kola] I can't find the tunnel again.
[Lottie] Got my key…
I have to be quiet.
…and I'm panicking.
It's so [bleep] hard because of wood.
But I'm not leaving here until I get the planks into that ladder.
[Bear] So I know Kola is heading for the tunnel exit
and Joe was going for the 4x4 when I got him,
which means Lottie must be trying to get out via the ladder.
So there's only really time to catch one of them.
I'm on their tail, and I'm looking for them.
[dramatic music plays]
Found the tunnel.
I gotta keep my wits about me 'cause I think he's near. [pants]
Oh man.
There was so much sand.
[breathing heavily]
[Lottie] Oh my God.
I just hope I'm quick enough.
I really hope that I'm gonna make it there in time.
[tense music plays]
[Kola] It's got some wooden planks nailed into it.
I put my foot on both ends of the plank,
pulled with all of my strength,
and ripped the wooden planks in half.
[Lottie] I carried the planks.
I could sense I was getting closer and closer to victory
with the ladder that I didn't complete last time.
[Kola] I need to keep shoveling and shoveling.
[Lottie] I really wanna do it for myself, and both Una and Steph have done it,
so I feel like I have to do it for the girls.
[Kola] The air's stifled. I'm breathing in sand.
[ticking]
[Lottie] I think Bear is close. Can't let him catch me.
[tense music continues]
[breathlessly] Oh God. Oh my God.
[Bear] Kola!
[Kola] Oh…
-[Bear pants] -[Kola] So close, man. I was nearly there.
-Yes! -[high-pitched horn blares]
Yes!
Ah.
Yes, yes, yes! I escaped. I did it. I did it. I did it. I did it.
I did it!
[ominous droning]
[Bear] What tools have you got?
The shovel that was in two parts.
You needed something else.
I left a saw for you somewhere as well.
-[breathlessly] Oh God. -You went for the brute strength.
And you got away from me that time. Good job.
[Kola chuckles softly]
Your mighty strength is gonna get you far in life. [chuckles]
And it almost got you past me. [pats back]
[Kola breathes heavily]
That was the hardest thing I've ever done.
I was digging for freedom.
My arms were aching. I couldn't breathe.
If I had two minutes more, I would've… I would've… I would've made it out.
-Two caught. -[gunshot echoes]
[all] Oh!
-Oh no! -[Una] That was so quick.
How did he snare both of them? Oh my God.
-Damn! -[Una] Hmm.
I really wanted all three of them to get out.
-[Big Zuu] Same. Same. -Yeah.
[Big Zuu] Two caught.
He might catch all three.
I think Lottie's been caught now.
[soft, contemplative music plays]
Oh man.
[gates clank, creak]
-[gasps] -Oh!
-Hello! -[Una] It's Lottie!
-[Steph] Yes! -[Big Zuu] Oh my days.
-Yes! -[Big Zuu laughs]
-I escaped! -[Steph] Oh yeah!
-Yeah, you got out! -[stirring, triumphant music plays]
-[Steph] Yes! [laughs] -[Big Zuu] You done it.
[Steph] Una and I are absolutely buzzing.
She has joined an exclusive group of people
who have managed to get out of the Bear Pit.
I went in this time so clear, so focused.
-Oh, well done. -This is what I wanted.
-I wanted to escape, and I'm so happy. -Yeah, you have, and I knew you would.
-Yes! -[cheering, clapping]
[music fades]
So, after Lottie's escape over the Bear Pit wall,
that just leaves Kola and Joe to face Bear.
Will either of them make it back to camp?
[tense, foreboding music plays]
Joe, first of all, a big improvement.
You were in super good situational awareness.
You were moving really well, but you were slow.
[Joe grunts, groans]
But you can't fault your intensity and your spirit,
and also your learning curve has been like that.
Yeah.
Kola, I saw a catalog of mistakes.
First one being a clear map saying you also need a saw.
-[bang] -And then, setting off all the trip wires.
[bang]
Then you just, like in an adrenal haze,
grabbed that spade, and then you were running.
At this stage of this Bear Hunt, you're both caught.
You should both be heading home.
[tense music pulsing]
Kola,
you got lucky in that riverbed, getting away.
I let you get away 'cause I thought, "I'm not gonna risk getting injured here."
But, you know, you're a warrior. I respect that.
Never-give-up spirit conquers everything.
Consider this your second chance.
Joe, I feel you've reached the end of your journey here.
-You're out. -Okay.
-But take heart, my friend… -[Joe] All right.
-…'cause you… -[Joe] Cheers.
…you have done exceptionally well.
-Thank you. Cheers. -Respect.
-Thank you. Cheers. -[Bear] Well done.
-Cheers. Thank you. -[melancholy music plays]
-[Bear] All right. On. On. -[Joe] Okay.
-[Bear] Well done. -All right, well done.
[Joe] Well done, man. You deserve it.
-[Joe] You deserve it. Proud of you. -You're a champion.
[dramatic music plays]
I'm really, really grateful for the experience.
I think I've learnt quite a lot of humility doing it.
My favorite quote of all time is,
"Sport doesn't build character. It reveals it."
I think I have learnt things about my character
that I maybe didn't know or maybe knew a bit but had forgotten.
It has been genuinely… educative,
and I will take a huge amount away from it.
[gates creak]
-[Steph] Oh, the gate. -Someone's coming!
-[Lottie] Oh God. -Who is it?
[stirring music plays]
-[Big Zuu] Oh my days! -[Steph] Yeah! Kola!
-[Big Zuu] Done it. -I knew it!
-He made it! -[Una laughs]
You all right?
-You done it, man. -[Lottie] Oh my God.
[Big Zuu] Oh man. It's bittersweet.
I'm happy for Kola, but I'm sad for Joe at the same time.
He's such a good guy.
I know he put a lot into it, but, you know, his time has come,
and I wish him the best.
I went to do the tunnel exit, yeah?
I start digging.
I take my… my head out for air.
Who do I see running towards me? Bear!
At that point, I was shattered, so I said, "You got me."
Yeah, I just feel bad for Joe, and I really, like, wish he could have…
-[all] Yeah. -…done it.
I thought he was the one that made it out,
but what it showed is that you lot both had to conquer your weaknesses in there,
and you both did it.
-It's actually… -Oh!
Surprise!
-Look. -[Una] Oh. It's Holly.
-[Steph] Oh! Holly! -[Big Zuu] Oh, ho, ho!
[Holly] First of all, Kola and Lottie, congratulations…
-Thank you. -[Holly] …on escaping the Bear Pit.
Well done, both of you. Pleased you're here.
Well, tomorrow, there will be no challenge.
-[Steph gasps] -Oh.
[Holly] And that is because
you five sat here right now
are the Bear Hunt finalists!
-[all cheer] -[Big Zuu] Yeah!
-[Una squeals] -[Holly] You made it! You did it!
[Big Zuu] We did it, man.
-Group hug! -Okay, group hug!
-[Steph] Yay! -That is so good. That is so nice.
[Steph] Oh my God. Get in.
-[Big Zuu] Come here. -[Steph] Yeah! Come on, Holly.
-[Lottie] We stink. Sorry. -It's fine.
You've been through so much to get here, all of you, in your own unique ways,
and all of you deserve this place in the final.
Well, tomorrow, you're gonna be preparing for that final Bear Pit.
After that final Bear Pit, one of you will be crowned Bear Hunt champion.
-Ah! -[Una chuckles]
-Well done. Sleep well. -[Steph] Thanks, Holly.
-Congratulations, champions! -[Steph] Yay!
Finalist! Yes, yes, yes, yes!
-We're in the final! -I can't believe it.
I wanna win. [laughs]
-Well done, everyone. Well done. -Yeah, well done.
It feels absolutely brilliant to be a finalist.
I never thought I would get this far, honestly.
Man's in the final! What?
Come on, bruv. Let's go.
[Una] That's the most beautiful sunset now as well.
[rousing music plays]
-When you close your eyes-- -[Steph] That a shark? See the shark?
There! There's a fin!
-Can you see the fin? -[Una] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
It's really weird to think I'm here at the end.
-[Steph] It's there! -[Una] Really near the shore.
[Lottie] Yeah.
But I've fought really hard to get to where I am.
-[Steph] There it is! -[Una] Two of them!
Oh my God! There's two of them!
-[Steph] Two! There's two sharks! -[Una] There's more here, look!
Bear, you gave me a second chance,
and come final, I'm gonna be on it.
[contemplative music plays]
-That's a big ting. -[Big Zuu] It's big, bro.
[Kola] Look how big it is!
[Steph] Oh, what a brilliant end to all of this.
