The 36 men, women and children who participated in the BBC's Castaway 2000 are to reunite on Taransay, according to the Aberdeen Press and Journal.

The year-long "social experiment" stranded the group on the remote Scottish island and followed them as they attempted to form their own community and way of life.

Organiser Des Monks will not be allowing cameras to the two-year reunion, which is planned for "later this year".

Fellow Castaway star Ben Fogle said today: "I can't wait to return. I've been back once since 2001. Part of me is nervous about going back because things can never be the same. It is a strange mix of emotions."
