The program
L'Isola dei Famosi is an Italian reality show first aired on Rai Due in 2003, before moving to Canale 5 in 2015. The first eight seasons of the show, held between 2003 and 2012, were hosted by Simona Ventura. After her departure to Sky Italia, the show underwent a change in format. Starting in the ninth season, the show had two hosts, Nicola Savino in studio and Vladimir Luxuria on the island. In 2015, both were replaced. Alessia Marcuzzi is now in the studio, while Alberto 'Alvin' Bonato is the host on the island. Alvin was replaced in 2017 by Stefano Bettarini.
The format is the Italian season of the programme Celebrity Survivor, created by Charlie Parsons. In February 2001, a show with a similar format, called Survivor, aired on Italia 1, hosted by Benedetta Corbi.
On The Island of the Famous a group of celebrity competitors, and beginning with the fifth season a non-celebrity competitor, must survive on a desert island with no facilities. Competitors must survive by building shelter, procuring food and water, and finding ways to maintain warmth. Candidates have a basic survival kit which, through group efforts, can be enhanced with new objects.
Once a week there is a challenge winner, determined through contests of skill, balance, strength, or other factors. The competitor who wins the week’s challenge becomes immune from elimination in the next episode.
A live "nomination" takes place weekly, in which competitors are gradually eliminated. The last remaining contenders compete for the final prize during the season finale.
The first three season took place in the Dominican Republic on the Samaná Peninsula. From fourth to sixth season the show moved to Cayos Cochinos, Honduras. Due to the coup in Honduras, however, the seventh season of the show was held in Corn Islands, Nicaragua only to return to Honduras for the eighth season.
After some uncertainty at RAI about scheduling during the 2011/2012 season, due to the loss of Simona Ventura upon her transfer to Sky, on September 15, 2011 the Board of RAI gave the green light to the ninth season of the program with the dual hosts, Nicola Savino and Vladimir Luxuria.
