The reality challenge series returns with a £100,000 prize for any of the participants who can evade the elite team of hunters. Househusband Nick tentatively sets out by bicycle while Anna and Elizabeth head off into the countryside.
Ten days into the challenge, chief investigator Peter Bleksley decides to launch a mass media campaign to use the public as their eyes and ears. Anna and Elizabeth are first to encounter these new spies.
Nick takes a risk by reaching out to a friend to borrow money, while Lolly uses coded messages to get her cash. The Chief deploys dogs and launches aerial drones to help track down the remaining fugitives.
The hunt for the fugitives takes a psychological turn as the hunters search for weakness. They suspect Nick's close-knit family could be his downfall and place his wife under surveillance. They taunt Adu for missing his daughter's birthday.
Ayo is cornered after a trip home to visit his family. Anna and Elizabeth are back in the Yorkshire Dales, unaware that the hunters are just one step behind them. Nick risks visiting old haunts while Madu is hiding with friends in Swansea.
The clock is ticking for the hunters who have just a few days left to track down the remaining fugitives. Leaving nothing to chance they pull in potential informants, launch a social media campaign and scour CCTV footage.
