Survivor (British TV series) series 3

'''''Survivor'' (British series 3), also known as ''Survivor 2023'' or simply ''Survivor''''' is the first and only series of the competitive reality television series ''Survivor'' on the BBC. The series was filmed in the Summer of 2023 and began airing in October of the same year. The series began with the 18 contestants being marooned on two remote beaches in the María Trinidad Sánchez Province in the Dominican Republic. Hosted by comedian Joel Dommett, it consisted of 16 episodes following the 34 days of the series, with one contestant being eliminated by a majority vote per episode, and the winner being awarded a grand prize of £100,000.

Now airing on BBC One and BBC iPlayer, the series was a continuation of the British edition of the ''Survivor'' franchise following a lengthy hiatus after the first and second series failed to live up to the critical praise, commercial success and cultural impact of the early seasons of the American version when they aired in the early 2000s, as they received mostly negative reviews and lower ratings than expected after airing on ITV.

The contestants were initially separated into two tribes, Caletón and La Nena, each named after the names of the beaches they were on. When 11 players remained, the contestants merged into one tribe, Calena, a portmanteau of the original two tribe names. The series was won by Matthew Haywood, defeating Christopher Haul and Leilani Sen in a 6–1–1 jury vote to earn the title of Sole Survivor and be awarded the £100,000 grand prize. Provided by Wikipedia
