Despite their previous success with catching a shark, the search for food continues for the remaining castaways. As hunger and exhaustion sets in, singletons Patrick and Sarah seek comfort in each other while the rest of the men and women start to fall apart - including an explosive row between two of the women. Dan leads an expedition to the other side of the island, but Sarah struggles on the rocky coastline. With a storm coming in and huge waves crashing against the cliffs, they face a race against time to get to safety and avoid being cut off by the incoming tide.

Following Patrick's horrifying fall, the Island is in crisis. Dr Dan's expedition party is now trapped in a tiny cove, with a tropical storm on the way. When the safety team arrive to evacuate Patrick, they find the stormy sea too rough to land their boat. The only escape route is a perilous climb back up the cliffs. Back at camp, the need for food is more urgent than ever. So far the men have dominated the hunting, with little success and Elliot desperate for a big kill. But barmaid Tilly yearns to get more involved.

Despite being marooned for a month, the men and women on the Island are barely managing to survive. Without a sustainable food source and insufficient shelter to protect them from the brutal tropical storms, the Islanders are on the brink of disaster as their bodies start to fail. In desperation, the women muster the energy to make one last push to look for food; and Simon leads a hunt into the jungle for the most dangerous predator on the island: the caiman crocodile.

Surviving the Island

In this special episode, Bear Grylls takes an in-depth look at how the castaways survived in the latest series of The Island with Bear Grylls. Completely alone, filming everything themselves, with only a handful of basic tools and the clothes they stood up in, Bear's eight men and eight women not only had to survive five gruelling weeks in a vicious tropical storm season, they also had to cope with food being particularly scarce due to the uncertainty of fishing stock caused by the El Nino weather system. Bear returns to meet the men and women who made it through the experiment and sees first-hand how they managed to survive - as individuals and as part of a mixed sex group. He hears their reflections on their time on the island and shares his thoughts on how they coped with the extremes.
