    The Bejesus Will Be Shocked

    The Bejesus Will Be Shocked

    Have a look at a bottle of Lea & Perrins, because we're back for De Mol België Season 12 - and its visit to the place Logan's ancestors fled under the cloak of darkness - Sicily! Over these nine weeks, three guys who have tried nothing and are all out of ideas - Michael, Logan & Bindles - are recapping and breaking down everything that happens as we try and work out who has been given an offer that they couldn't refuse - to become the Mole - continuing with the fifth episode and elimination of Lynn!
    In this episode - Mothers' Week continues, Bindles reveals a fear, Michael has had an appointment with a slobber monster, we do some Hunted chat, a potential clue is spotted, Logan surprises us with a clean joke, Lynn almost gets a hat trick, the Mole gets a new voice, someone walks into a (Papa) Bear trap, there is some terrible wordplay, Gilles acquires a new nickname (or five), the sponsorship is really subtle, tradition threatens to be subverted, we reveal who we'd bring on a family visit, our chequered pasts may get exposed, we try and work out if the Doublers were a failure, the meaning of the Wilhelm Scream is explained, there are the latest updates to the Pool and First Suspicions, we lock in our final pair of suspicions for the season, Logan is surprised by a question we've asked hundreds of times, we look at the optimum place for the Mole to be and all the rules get broken after 521 episodes.
    You can play along with this week's Bother's Bar Suspect List here. We will see you next week for Episode 6!
    Please note: This episode is intended on being spoiler-free, but references to any season we have already covered (WIDM 10-11, 14, 17-24 and Renaissance; België 4-11) may be made. This episode may also contain references to WIDM Season 6 and US Season 5.
    Additional note: For the first time in two years, Logan definitely has a finalist - can he make it two next week? We hope not!

    Exit, Pursued by a Hunter

    Exit, Pursued by a Hunter

    Say your (potential) goodbyes, as we are back for Hunted UK's lucky seventh series! Over these six weeks (regardless of Channel 4's broadcast schedule), three people who are all running off in different directions after this episode, in the hope that none of them get caught - Michael, Anthony & Michelle - returned to recap the hunt for twelve new fugitives who are spread out all over the UK in a quest to escape capture and win a share of £100,000 - concluding with the final episode, capture of Cameron and escape of Jaxon, Nicola & Sade.
    In this episode - Michael breaks a promise and ties up a loose end, we discuss Race Across the World, there's another message from Alex Ayling, Doug gets one final undermining, Ray runs out of cliches, we wonder why Kirsty couldn't just catch some fugitives herself, some local knowledge refutes what the Hunters claimed, two of us issue an apology, we wonder where the crying scene was, Michelle googles "Stipples Town", Production have some contingency plans, we go back to the final ascent, there was a major clue that it wasn't a Clean Sweep, Mothers' Week begins, we say our (potential) goodbyes, the podcasts' impact is explained and we worry about some backlash for the banner.
    Thank you for listening to this episode - Michael, Logan & Bindles are continuing covering De Mol België every Thursday before we'll be back for more Historians later in the year!
     
    Additional note: Obviously, if this is the end of Civilian Hunted we'll be disappointed, but thank you to everyone who's listened to our Hunted podcasts over the last eight(!) years. Thanks to everyone who's been involved in the show - whether Hunter, Fugitive or Gold Command (love you Kevin!) - and anyone who's interacted with us, whether for one episode or forty-six - we hope this won't be the end!

Over these six weeks (regardless of Channel 4's broadcast schedule), three people who are mostly length, really - Michael, Anthony & Michelle return to recap the hunt for twelve new fugitives who are spread out all over the UK in a quest to escape capture and win a share of £100,000 - continuing with the fifth episode and capture of Cathy, Annida and Alex (sadly!).
    In this episode - Michael turns the subtitles on, Michelle gives us the update on the Sydney situation, one of the fugitives pops up on another show, an old friend has got in touch, we've been offered an interview, Cathy & Annida's vibrancy is never in doubt, someone takes an ironic trip, we worry we're being trolled, there is a really bad edit, Doug gets undermined, we get a new hero, Michelle hurries things along, there is the most egregious monkeying with the timeline in Hunted history (not including Australia, obviously), everyone's been doing their homework, the trailers are too honest, Anthony spots a reshoot, a week goes missing, we try and guess who'll win and someone gets a maths lesson.
    Thank you for listening to this episode - we will see you next week for the finale!
     
    Additional note: Are we ever going to be able to trust the editors again? I'm not sure I can!
