You know how I love watching Bear Grylls’ programmes – particularly since he had to tone down what he was claiming in his second series of Born Survivor.
Back in May, when Ray Mears was promoting his latest series – set in the Australian outback – he laughed off Grylls. Now Grylls is conceding defeat in the battle of TV survivalists. Grylls has a new series of Born Survivor starting on Discovery next week and C4 in October.
This sounds like the perfect opportunity for a Children in Need or Comic Relief stand-off: first person to Uluru or the North Pole is the winner. Something like that.
