Hunted - Ch4
|
|
Anyone see this last night...new prog on ch4 done by the same tv company that does the island with Bear Grylls.
Basically, members of the public have to try and disappear for 28 days in the UK without being caught. They are given 450 quid to survive and are tracked by a selected group of ex old bill and anti terror units using CCTV and ANPR.
Looks like a good series. Fkn mental what they can search about you and find out just from looking online.
Anyone reckon they could hide for 28 days and not get caught ?

I understand that - but it would take a day or two unlike the ATM's which were immediate.

I could easily do it. As a carp angler I'm quite comfortable camping out in some woods by a deserted lake for weeks on end

You still have to use your card to get cash back, which can be traced.
If you're able to borrow a car off your mate like the GP did then surely you just borrow cash early on too.

Don't several hundred thousand people go missing in the UK each year.
This would suggest that you don't need a TV programme to prove it is possible.
Of course, like other such shows it is meant to be entertainment - not taken seriously.

I'd go and stay at my sister's.
Last place anyone that knows me would expect to find me...

Just watched it. Utterly proposterous. For a start, if you HAVE to use your bank card whilst on the run you find a shop that does 'cash back', not use a fucking ATM.
If you're a low level crim on the run, 28 days is a piece of piss, particularly if you have 450 notes to play with. I'll be giving the rest of this sees a swerve.

Comes down to where are you going to sleep really.
I'm thinking you want 200 quid cash, then get on a coach to the other end of the country, a cheap rent from Aldi/Lidl and hit a campsite for 2 weeks, paying cash for everything. Can live on 50 quid a week for food easy enough. Then do the same after two weeks further on...can entertain yourself at those places with second hand books and the like, plus nursing a beer at the local pub.
Go off grid that way. Get a campsite for under 10 a night...the key as said is to go to cash points as few times as possible, leave the mobile phone off, etc.

Yeah that cunt with the kid did my head in!! Other than that, think it's a good idea for a show.
Would definitely be up for going on it.

I was out off right at the start when it stated 'CCTV and ANPR are imitated' or words to that effect..
Which basically means its all acting...? Surely. If both the hunted and the hunters can't break the law, and ANPR and CCTV is not real in the show, it amounts to a simulated game show doesn't it? I recorded it anyway but interested to know if I'm understanding it right.

With over 90% of the UK yet to be built on, I'm sure you could rough it somewhere free from CCTV

I reckon you'd need money eventually so i'd get it all at the start. From London there's thousands of different directions. The first pair to be caught did so as from the cashpoint they was tracked from there was very few routes.
The trackers said if they cant build up a pattern its near enough impossible to catch you so id go about it that way
Fifth - DR is the doctor that was on last nights show, stands the best chance from the ones ive seen although i suspect next week they will uncover his Scottish history and quickly head up there

INTERCEPTOR was the original - and the best - of these types of programme.

If the contestants knew, surely you'd hide everything?
Although saying that it was that dickhead blonde bird who left out a whole folder of all her passwords etc.

correct.
But they didn't break in really as they would have had permission from the contestants

Can't put false plates on as breaking the law is not allowed.
Haven't seen the programme yet (got it recorded), but although a mates car might give you some time I reckon it's the sort of thing they'd check for.
Also don't think central London is the best idea as it has more CCTV coverage than any city in the world.
I reckon the best thing to do is to not use the money at all and live off the land - staying away from anywhere you have been before or know anyone from.

Nope, either stick mine on false plates or do what the DR did and borrow one from a mate
