Celebrity version of the show in which 'fugitives' are pursued by 'hunters' using police-style techniques.
I've never seen the main show before, and watched this on a whim, finding it surprisingly entertaining. I can't help feeling that as it's a celebrity version the hunters might be going slightly easier on the fugitives in order to get a decent show. I also wonder how they fugitives manage to hide whilst being followed around by a camera crew!
The fugitive teams are:
AJ Pritchard ('Strictly Come Dancing' professional) and Louis Smith (gymnast). Were doing well, but AJ's concerns over Louis's risky reliance on his known network have led him (sensibly, I think) to split from his teammate. Louis looks to be on the verge of being caught.
Kay Burley (Sky News presenter) and Johnny Mercer (MP). Doing very well, probably partly due to Johnny being a former Commando! He even managed to re-enter London, slip into the House of Commons for an important vote, then escape again to rejoin Kay.
Chris Hughes and Kem Ketinay (ex-'Love Island' contestants). Doing surprisingly well, though with some very narrow squeaks. With a high social media profile amongst younger people they're having trouble with people taking photos and posting them online, giving away their location.
Dom Joly (comedian and TV presenter) and Vicky Pattison (reality star). Doing okay, mainly down to Dom, until Vicky let emotion get the better of her and she insisted on meeting her Mum. The hunters were able to locate them easily. Ironically it was Dom that got caught; Vicky escaped but then almost immediately went to her fiancee, and was caught shortly afterwards as a result 
I shall keep watching with bated breath!

Love this show - especially the format. I watched this and the last non-celeb version last year / earlier this year.

AJ was, as I suspected, wise to split from Louis but he got cocky and it may well have doomed him. Johnny shouldn't have been so gung-ho but no harm came from it in the end. It's understandable why Kay was angry, but she let it develop into a tantrum, and it got her caught. I'm amazed Chris and Kem are still on the run. That stunt the hunters pulled with Kem's teddy was hilarious, though!  |

Completely agree Anglo - although I felt a bit sorry for Kate. She was dobbed in by the driver of the lorry's boss!
Cocky was how I described AJ to my dad when he popped down for a quick chat.

I bet the lorry boss didn't share the reward with the driver either!
It seems the TOWIE two are looking good, they seem to be having the most fun aswell.
I don't get why AJ wouldn't do that. Even if he ran they're chasing him and he has a ruck sack. If you're going to taunt them do it from a distance.

Wow! Well done Johnny and AJ. It was a very narrow squeak - about as narrow as you could get - but it has to be said, the Hunters might well not have got even close if Chris and Kem hadn't given away the extraction was by boat from Southampton |

Looks like a new series of this is currently being filmed, as I keep getting messages on Facebook about a reward offered for information on the whereabouts of certain 'celebrities'. I haven't known any of the ones featured so far, so they must be really scraping the bottom of the z-list barrel for contestants.

Hmm .. I shall watch out for this, although I haven't seen any FB appeals.

I think I 'liked' the Hunted page there previously, so their appeals come up in my feed. 🙂

Ah, cheers Netz. That probably explains it.

Anymore to come?
