It’s the most intense game of hide and seek you’ll ever witness, as nine pairs of ordinary Aussies turn into Fugitives on the run, trying to hide from a team of some of the best investigators formerly from the AFP, ADF, British Intelligence, special ops and private security. If the Fugitives can disappear without a trace and remain undetected for 21 days and can reach the final extraction point, they’ll win a share of the $100,000 prize money. The only thing standing in their way are the very determined Hunters.


Nine pairs of ordinary Australians who, right before your eyes, transform into real life fugitives and undertake the unthinkable – a bank robbery. It’s a modern-day bank heist as the Fugitives break into a bank and steal the money, before making their getaway to disappear without a trace. Their goal is to make it to the extraction point in 20 days and if they evade capture, the money is theirs to keep.
