 KABIR BEDI - the castaway! |
| EXCLUSIVE Castaway Kabir to join Italian celebs on two month survival trip. Kabir will be going to the limits of his endurance this autumn when he joins a group of Italian celebrities for a two-month survival trip to a fenced-off part of the Dominican Republic jungle, to be filmed for the Isola dei Famosi show of Italian TV channel RAI DUE. The first broadcast ist scheduled to be on September 17, 2004. With not even a box of matches to his name, our creature comfort-loving castaway will have an interesting time learning to stew lizards and live off wild berries, he says. He will be allowed two changes of clothes, two pairs of swimming trunks, trainers, sandals and a length of rope, plus - he hopes - an Italian dictionary. Actually, we suspect Kabir will only use it to swat flies - or his fellow celebs - as his Italian is pretty fluent. "It's pretty rugged survival, plus there's all these tests they set you," Kabir said. "You have to fashion your own fishing hooks." Kabir's real Mompracem does have a luscious tropical beach, but it's a brief swim across a shark-infested bay. As well as lots of native wildlife, Kabir will enjoy the company of nine other participants, including singer Dj Francesco, show girl Antonella Elia, and Rosanna Cancellieri, a TV journalist. Broadcast in real time, the show is vaguely based on the famous - some would say notorious - Big Brother format. Cameras have been hidden all over the tropical paradise, and at the end of each weekly show, Italian viewers get to vote out one of the contestants. One other poor soul will be evicted by their fellow island inmates. The remaining short-term savages are set tests by the show's producers that will earn them immunity from eviction, or simple pleasures such as food or the right to have a good wash. The ultimate winner takes home 200,000 euro, of which they will be required to give half to a charity of their choice. "I'll really have to get into shape," Kabir says, adding he may use his stay on a tobacco-free paradise to give up smoking altogether. So does he look forward to the experience? "Of course! I love a challenge. But maybe I'll be voted out in a week!" More detailed information/pictures soon here at KABIR-BEDI.COM. |
