Remote Control

Remote Control is an interactive online game in which players get the chance to directly influence events on the island – for better or worse. To take part, they have to be eagle-eyed and spot a symbol hidden in the Castaway programme on BBC One.

Viewers who spot the secret symbol can visit the Castaway website at bbc.co.uk/castaway to identify the correct symbol out of a possible three options. If they choose correctly, they become eligible to vote on a dilemma, the outcome of which will affect the lives of the Castaways. There is a new hidden symbol and a new dilemma each week.

Viewers can also play Remote Control on a deeper level. Each symbol they collect from the BBC One shows provides a clue to the secret destination of a spectacular holiday prize.

Players must use their skills and knowledge to find the secret location to be in with a chance of winning. Along the way, they’ll find out more about the geography, history and culture that surrounds the castaways.

By week 10, the players will have all the clues they need to solve the riddle. From those who correctly identify the secret holiday destination, one randomly selected winner will be invited to attend the final episode of Castaway Exposed, where they will be proclaimed the winner of Castaway: Remote Control and be presented with details of the fantastic prize.
