Alone (UK) TV series. What ten items would you choose?

After the first UK series I did consider applying for the next before it got cancelled. My wife was not impressed with the idea of an unknown time of being away.

I would be very interested in seeing the contract and any waivers that you would have to sign. Also the production company’s risk assessment.
I’d be amazed if there was any danger of confrontation with anything dangerous.
Eating human beings is junk food and fauna conservation people would prevent it.

Well there clearly is risk of confrontation if you’ve watched any of the shows.

Eating human beings is junk food

!!!

Judging from how most people look their bodies must be full of cholesterol and toxins. Maybe an organic human raised on a good quality healthy diet might taste nice but I wouldn't fancy eating your average Western European person for 'obvious reasons'.

I thought the justification for taking a lower poundage bow was well thought out - no point taking a bow if over time and lack of calories you find you can't pull it.

I just watched the series where the chap who won, didn’t take a bow, used a long stick with a wire loop to catch grouse!

Thats interesting. Which series is that Nigel?
Very specific tactic & opportunity biased I'd imagine?.

11 (I think -edit yes just looked). Basically grouse seem to be quite stupid. He had 3/4 metres length of ‘stick’ with a wire snare at the end and walked quietly to the bird and tried to get the loop in front so it would not try and fly. Then pulled over neck and yanked to get the bird. He did a few that way.
