Bare
Necessities presents viewers with an entertaining relief from today’s
indoor hi-tech world. It appeals to the first human instinct of survival
and provides the viewer with the engaging opportunity to see how individuals,
just like themselves, cope when they are plucked from their cosseted 20th
century lifestyles. How do we create territories, evolve as a team, resolve
disputes, and survive the elements? |

|
Each
week the program takes two teams from different professions and challenges
them to survive for a working week, five days, in the wild. Although from
the same profession none of the three people in a team will know each other.
Marooned in different locations around the World, the teams will strive
to survive with only five basic items - the Bare Necessities. The changing
location and brief will determine the exact nature of the challenge they
will face, but every week teams will have to build a shelter, construct
a toilet (hygiene is part of survival!), light fires and find and cook their
food. |
