“The drama explores the perils and challenges facing the world’s most famous castaway as Crusoe and his native friend Friday struggle to survive on a desert island with little more than their wits.

I am looking forward to this for 5 reasons:
1) Filmed almost entirely in the UK and South Africa which means not in Hollywood.
2) Sam Neil and Sean Bean are cast members.
3) The inevitable “hungry cannibals” vs “native friend” episode.
4) Could be a small screen Pirates.
5) Pop success for Crusoe may lead to a Jules Verne resurgence!
