The next series of ITV1's reality gameshow Survivor is to be filmed off the coast of Panama, according to a report in the News Of The World today.

Contestants on Survivor 2 will compete for the £1m prize on one of the isles of Cayo Zapatillas, where they will be left in the dense jungle, having to fish for barracudas to survive. Local wildlife includes venemous red frogs, lethal Feu de Lance vipers, constricting pythons and alligators.

An ITV insider told the newspaper: "If people thought last year's show was tough, the Cayo Zapatillas will really weed out the men from the boys."

The programme is pencilled in to premiere next Easter.
