Draft:Treasure Island: Extreme

Treasure Island: Extreme was the fourth season overall and the third regular series of the New Zealand reality competition television franchise Treasure Island. The season was hosted by model Jacqui Rickards and narrated by John Sumner. The series consisted of 16 former and current personnel of the police, SAS, armed forces and soldiers who competed against each other in the most "extreme" condition in the show history. They were marooned offshore on an island in the Mamanuca Islands of Fiji without any food, water or shelter and were separated into Blue Team and Red Team competing against each other for 24 days, competing for the grand prize of $30,000. The season premiered on 15 October 2002 on TV2 and concluded on 3 December 2002.

The season was won by John "Horse" McLeod after winning the Treasure Hunt against Paul Irwin in a dramatic finale to win the prize of $30,000. A notable incident happened when the SAS trained contestant Barrie "Baz" Rice was eliminated and refused to leave instead of hiding in the jungle. Because of previous threats made to rival contestants, a security warning was issued to other competitors. He eventually returned from the jungle and left the island.
