The winners of Celebrity Hunted have been confirmed in a dramatic end to the series, while one fugitive was sent home.
On Tuesday evening (August 25), the grand finale of the Channel 4 show kicked off with five celebrities still on the run from the Hunters. Former EastEnders star Brian Conley and his daughter Lucy were still a team, remaining undetected, along with Strictly Come Dancing pros Amy Dowden and Carlos Gu. It comes as disability advocates JJ Chalmers and Sophie Morgan were caught on Monday's episode.
Scarlette Douglas eliminated
And on Tuesday's episode, television presenter Scarlette Douglas was on her own after her brother Stuart was caught in a previous episode, yet the end was in sight, and she made a bid for the extraction point. As she headed to the motorway in a car being driven by her friend, the Hunters were hot on Scarlette's heels, and after she tried to run away on foot, she was captured moments later.
"I'm gutted that I didn't get all the way to the end. But I managed to do three days without my brother, and that has made me super proud", Scarlette said as she was eliminated from the series.
Escape at Black Rock Sands
Across the country, the two remaining teams headed to Birmingham train station to retrieve details of the extraction point from a left luggage facility, and the Hunters wasted no time in following them.
Carlos and Amy tried to dress up in hopes of not being caught on CCTV, while Brian waited in a pub as his trusty daughter headed over to retrieve the information, but they were all captured on camera, and the Hunters closed in.
With details of the extraction point stored on a burner phone, the teams headed to Black Rock Sands beach in North Wales, where they stayed overnight in local B&Bs before heading for the checkpoint.
Final chase and winner
Amy, Carlos, Brian and Lucy concealed themselves in the sand dunes while they waited for extraction, which came in the form of a small aeroplane that could land directly on the beach.
The teams sprinted to the aircraft as the Hunters raced across the beach on foot and by car, with help from a helicopter.
Amy and Carlos jumped through the doors of the plane, followed by Lucy, but Brian struggled to run across the sand and was seen holding his lower back.
Thankfully, the 65-year-old made it into the aircraft, which began moving down the sand, ready to take off and complete the extraction.
The Hunters made one final push to cut them off, racing alongside the plane in their car, but they failed as the plane took off, leaving Brian, Lucy, Amy, and Carlos as the show's winners and the Hunters at HQ annoyed.
