Expeditie Robinson 2003

Expeditie Robinson: 2003 is the fourth season of the Dutch/Belgian version of the reality television series Expeditie Robinson, or Survivor as it is referred to in some countries. This season began airing on September 13, 2003 and concluded on December 6, 2003.

Season summary
The major twist this season was that the team tribes were divided mostly by gender, with the Timo tribe (South Team) initially comprising seven men and one woman, while the Pantai tribe (North Team) comprising seven women and one man. As the only member of their gender on their respective tribes, Björn Lemeire and Fatima Aboulouafa were made leaders of their tribes and given immunity at their tribe's first respective Tribal Council.

A shocking discovery was made in episode 4 when Fatima was forced to leave the competition as it had been discovered that she was four months pregnant. In the same episode, a tribe swap occurred, in which Giovani Oosters and Judge Chambliss switched tribes with Jutta Borms and Karen Vanautgaerden. Another twist occurred in episode 7 when, following the merge and Karen's subsequent elimination, she was told that instead of being eliminated, she would compete in duels at "Devils Island" with the next contestant to be voted out. The loser of each duel would be eliminated, and the winner of the final duel would re-enter the game at the final three. In another format change, the final five contestants in the merged tribe competed in a challenge, eliminating the two losers. A second challenge occurred at the final three. The winner of the final duel on Devil's Island, Ilona van der Laan, would go on to lose the final challenge.

Ultimately, it was Jutta Borms from Belgium who won the season over Judge Chambliss from the Netherlands to become the Sole Survivor. The jury vote resulted in a 4-4 tie, which was eventually broken by a public jury vote in which the public voted in favor of making Jutta the winner, with 66% of the vote.

Future Appearances
Björn Lemeire, Ryan van Esch and Ilona van der Laan returned to compete in Expeditie Robinson: Battle of the Titans which van Esch won.

Voting history
Due to Fatima's evacuation in episode 4, no one was eliminated at the fourth tribal council. However, as Eric received the most votes at tribal council he was given a penalty vote at his tribes next tribal council.

At the fifth tribal council both Eva and Judge received three votes. As the leader of the tribe, Björn was asked to cast the deciding vote.

Due to Eric's voluntary exit in episode 6, no one was eliminated at the sixth tribal council. However, as Robin received the most votes at tribal council he was given a penalty vote at the next tribal council.

At the ninth tribal council both Björn and Ryan received four votes. Because Björn had received more votes since the merge he was eliminated.

In episode 11, the contestants competed in a reward challenge in which the winner would be allowed a second vote to cast at tribal council. Robin won the challenge.

As there was initially a tie at the final tribal council, the public was given the right to cast the deciding vote through the results of a poll.
