“Cast Away starts Monday on @channel5_tv & My5 at 9pm.” The comment section was turned off so it is unclear on fan’s thoughts on the matter.

Phillip will tell his own personal story in an emotionally charged ultimate survival experience titled Phillip Schofield Cast Away. It will be broadcast on three nights from Monday 30th September to Wednesday 2nd October.
The show will follow Phillip as he is cast away for ten days and nine nights on a remote island off the coast of Madagascar. The only company Phillip will have is that of a handful of cameras as he documents his own experience. whilst he explores his own controversial story.
Talking about the show, Phillip said: “This is most definitely a first for me and the only thing I felt compelled to do. It appealed to me on so many levels. I’ve recently had a lot of time to think about my life, what went right and what went wrong, but I’ve always had the safe arms of friends and family wrapped around me.
“This time it’s just me, no ‘phone, no comforts, no crew and only lip balm as a luxury. I’m looking forward to exploring the island, trying to tie knots to secure my shelter and foraging and fending for myself in the wild … with no help. Maybe I’ll be Robinson Crusoe, or maybe I’ll just be Tom Hank’s Wilson and quietly drift off into the wild blue yonder!”
