Hunted 10

Hunted has revealed two new pairs ready to outsmart the Hunters after the show's season two return on 10 and 10 Play was announced last week.

Taylah and Glenn hail from Queensland. She’s a professional boxer, and he is ex-military, branding them public enemy number one to the team if highly trained hunters.

Meanwhile, Ben and Callum from Victoria are self-proclaimed geeks with an army of Dungeons & Dragons adventurers ready for action.

The second series will see 10 pairs of ordinary Australians transform into real-life fugitives with limited funds and resources, finding ways to survive and remain undetected whilst on the run.

Released somewhere in Melbourne, the fugitives must remain undetected for 21 days from the team of expert Hunters, made up of some of the world’s best investigators formerly of the Australian Federal Police, Australian Defence Force, and British Intelligence, alongside cyber analysts and intel experts.

Many HQ Hunters from season one will return, including Hunted Chief Dr. David Craig, Deputy Intelligence Ben Owen, Deputy Operations Reece Dewar, Lead Investigator Graeme Simpfendorfer, Lead Cyber Jason Edelstein, Forensic Psychologist Dr Karla Lopez, Open-Source Intel Carter Smith and Steph Jensen, Digital Forensics Jay Banerji, and Ethical Hacker Vicki Grouious.

Season two will also see the addition of a new hunter, Senior Principal Analyst Leigha Fraser.

HQ Hunters will be supported by five Ground Hunter teams on the road tracking every move.

In the first season of Hunted, fugitives Robert and Stathi did the improbable and reached the beach that had been named as the extraction point.

First to arrive at extraction was Robert, who boarded the helicopter, elated. Stathi made a run for it across the sand as Team Bravo hit the beach at the same time. It was a neck and neck foot race to the chopper, but Stathi managed to evade capture just in time, with the helicopter taking off with the inaugural winners of Hunted Australia aboard.  

Hunted is produced for Network 10 by Endemol Shine Australia, a Banijay Company.
