Wild Things is a wildlife-themed game show which is presented by TV presenter Kate Humble and comedian Jason Byrne. It was commissioned in August 2014 by Sky 1 HD and first aired on 15 March 2015.[1]
Format
The gameshow features four teams of two people (relatives or couples) completing challenges on a woodland obstacle course in order to win gold coins. However one member of the team must become the wild thing, meaning they must dress as a large woodland animal be at an Owl, Stag, Duck, Badger, Mole, Fox, Rabbit or Squirrel. The team member in the costume is unable to see so the second team member serves as their guide.[2] The four teams compete against each other in order to win a cash prize of £10,000 and escape from The Wild Wood.[3]
The team with the most points complete the final challenge which features the costumed contestant holding onto a suitcase with the prize money inside whilst being guided by their teammate (who is locked in a shed near the gates to get out of the Wild Wood) via a camera attached to the costume to travel to the shed to free their teammate by pressing a red button outside the shed. However, the camera only stays on for thirty seconds and also the other costumed contestants led by their teammates try to stop them. If one of the other contestants catch up and catch the winning contestant before they free their teammate, they win the money instead.
