An interesting scientific study, perhaps, but not an entertainment format. Go to Full Review

Alone is very dull, then, as boring as unkind people say Canada is. Go to Full Review

Warner D @RT97409236 Nov 25, 2023 No where as inspiring as US and Australian versions. Watching UK amateurs cope is a bit of an insult to the original show. See more
Smiling D @RT57046910 Sep 28, 2023 It's interesting to see how unprepared amateurs adapt to the wild. I've only watched the 1st episode thus far. Surprised only one contestant brought a bow. Not surprised to see someone chop themselves with an axe. The setting is probably the best so far. Not the best shelter builders but not the worst in the Alone series. I always wondered this far into all the Alones, that participants haven't figured out that a strong secure shelter will give them peace of mind early in the game and it doesn't need to be huge or elaborate. Their fire skills are not bad. Have to wait and see if they work out the food challenge. Overall, much better than the Australian Alone disaster which has a horrible location and way underskilled contestants. We'll see. See more
Alan B @RT10918363 Sep 11, 2023 The production team did not make the most of this show, sucked the bushcraft out, maxed out the emotional drama, and made it look like Big Brother in the woods. Despite that it was funny at times, and not hard to watch. See more
