Shipwrecked is a British reality television programme that aired on Channel 4's now defunct youth programming brand, T4 between 2000 and 2012. The original version ran for three series from 12 January 2000 to 19 December 2001 and was constructed as a social experiment, without a competitive format or prize.
The programme returned for four series from 8 January 2006 to 10 May 2009 in a new format, as Shipwrecked: Battle of the Islands. It featured two teams competing with each other for new members, with the larger team winning a cash prize at the end.
The series transferred to E4, beginning on 23 October 2011, retitled Shipwrecked: The Island.[2]
On 22 May 2018 Channel 4 confirmed that the series would return on E4, in 2019, with fierce competition between two battling islands, the tigers and the sharks with filming taking place in the summer on two Motu in the lagoon at Aitutaki in the Cook Islands.[3] The new series used the Battle of the Islands format and began airing on 28 January 2019, narrated by Vick Hope. The series ended on 15 February and on 15 July 2019, it was announced that the revived show had been axed due to low ratings.[4]
In 2013 a Russian version of the show aired on NTV.[5]
