The new Aussie show Hunted challenges 18 fugitives to escape and evade the capture of a crack squad of top detectives. 

The fugitives will be dropped into a remote location and will have to survive for 21 days without the hunters detecting them.

Dr David Craig is a seasoned detective and will lead the show’s team of investigators.

He joined Deb Knight on Afternoons to talk about the show and his experience as an investigator.

“Every single one of [the team] has been at the front line of investigating to protect the community from harm,” he said.

“Depending what the fugitives do will dictate what tricks we pull out of our sleeve to track them down.”

Hunted airs at 7:30pm this Sunday on Channel 10.
