Do You Have What It Takes to Live Wild in the Welsh Wilderness?

Could you survive 100 days in the Welsh wilderness with nothing but the clothes on your back and your wits to keep you alive?

A local television producer is searching for 15 brave volunteers willing to take part in an ambitious new reality television experiment, which will see contestants dropped into a remote location somewhere in Wales and challenged to live completely off-grid for 100 days.

Participants will have to build their own shelters, find food, source drinking water and cope with whatever the notoriously unpredictable Welsh weather throws at them.

Producers say the location will be remote, rugged and deliberately chosen to test the limits of even the most experienced outdoor enthusiasts.

There will reportedly be no luxury accommodation, takeaway deliveries or trips to the local pub, with contestants expected to work together while also competing for a mystery prize at the end of the challenge.

“We want ordinary local people who genuinely believe they could survive in the wild,” said the producer. “Whether you’re an experienced bushcrafter or someone who simply thinks they could probably make it work, we want to hear from you.”

Applications are now open, but producers warn that anyone expecting a relaxing camping holiday should probably think again.

After all, 100 days is a long time when there’s nowhere to plug in your phone.

What an absolute nonsense. Even the contestents on Alone tv series don't tend to last that long and they have got survival skillis, 10 items and hunting and fishing rights. People can't even survive in Cardiff and Swansea for 100 days let alone the wilderness. No wonder they are offering a million. There will be no one who can possibly win it. That said I will have a look and probably put in for it. lol DD xxxx

I haven't read the whole thread so don't know if it's been established yet but I'm pretty sure this is a wind up, the only source I can find is from FLN News, a spoof news outlet.
 
If anyone wants a show to watch, I found myself on old series of the island a while back - the bear grylls one.

He has some interesting mixes. Upper class and lower class folk and another gender based. It’s quite interesting to see the differences and how they respond. Might not be what you expect….
