10 has confirmed Hunted: The Million Dollar Heist will premiere on Monday 12 August, likely to compete with Nine’s The Block and Seven’s The Voice -both of which are yet to confirm premiere dates.
Season 3 promises “a new look, a new Chief and a mind-blowing twist.”
This season we meet nine pairs of ordinary Australians who, right before your eyes, transform into real life fugitives and undertake the unthinkable – a bank robbery.
It’s a modern-day bank heist as the Fugitives break into a bank and steal the money, before making their getaway to disappear without a trace. Their goal is to make it to the extraction point in 20 days and if they evade capture, the money is theirs to keep.
Hunted HQ has a new Chief at the helm. With over 20 years of experience in the Australian Defence Force and having been awarded the Order of Australia for services to the special operations community, Reece Dewar, OAM, steps up to lead the charge.
Reece’s dedicated, experienced, sharply trained team of Hunters must use their arsenal of tools to capture the Fugitives at large.
Australia’s most wanted Fugitives include Gen Z friends from Queensland coined the Dangerous Duo, Jayde and Tayla; recently engaged Queensland couple, Joanna and Lee; NSW father and daughter duo, Tanisha and Bobby and down to earth country girls, Romanee and Chelsea, who will all be going in with a solid plan to elude the Hunters.
Joining them on the run will be Andy and Deb from South Australia. Deb’s father was a criminal safe cracker spending 20 years on the run – will she inherently know some tactics that she can use? Andy and Deb will need to keep up with thrill seekers Ondeane and Shelli from Western Australia; while Victorian married couple, Ben and Luke are poised to make their mark on this ultimate adventure.
Friends from NSW, Kaylie and Tony, have speed, street smarts and are constantly thinking ahead while Victorian friends, Akec and Joe will do whatever it takes to make it to the final extraction point.
7:30pm Monday August 12 on 10.
