Imagine a world where women are in charge of absolutely everything and men just have to do as they’re told: the ultimate girl power universe. New entertainment series When Women Rule the World does exactly that, putting eight feisty females in charge of ten macho males, and challenging them to create their own utopia on a beautiful Caribbean island.

There is only one rule: women rule, men obey. The men have to do anything and everything their mistresses desire, and each week the man that doesn’t measure up will be “sacrificed” and sent away from the island. Steve Jones hosts.

Steve Jones has been lined up to present an all new reality TV show for T4.

When Women Rule The World will be set in a secret Caribbean village location, purpose built for the show. The series sees eight women taking sole charge of a group of ten men and challenges the women to build their perfect female crafted community. The men must do whatever the women order them to, with the only absolute law on the island being that ‘women rule, men obey.’ The women select one man to be eliminated from the contest each week with the winning male winning a cash prize at the end of series.

The series is based on a Fox format, created by Rocket Science, the producers behind shows such as Joe Millionaire and Temptation Island. The US version is due to air this summer on the Fox network.
