Survivorn

na television programme in which people compete with each other to try to win a very large prize of money. They are sent to a place where there are no other people, and where they are given special jobs to do. Each week the people there vote on who will leave the competition. This programme has been very popular in the US since 2000, and it has been done again several times in several countries. Britain and Australia tried doing similar programmes, but they were not successful and the programme is no longer broadcast in those two countries.
