ohohoh.... I forgot to mention The Interceptor.
The format of the show was a highly sophisticated version of the children's old favourite game of hide and seek; two contestants, a male and a female, working as a team attempt to survive and outmanoeuvre their enemy - the Interceptor.
The Interceptor was a mysterious and menacing character dressed all in black, who moved around at great speed in his black helicopter (registration - G-MEAN - how apt!) piloted by his loyal servant `Mikie`. He had alternative modes of transport - namely a black Maserati Biturbo Spyder sports car and a black Kawasaki ZX10 motorbike. His quest was to find and intercept the contestants and to `zap` their backpacks with his laser projector, which was worn on his arm, making it impossible for them to claim their prize.
The contestants were blindfolded at the start of each show and dropped by helicopter a few miles apart in an unfamiliar location. Each carried a locked backpack with five sensors on the face of the case. If The Interceptor was accurate with his laser projector, and he hit one of the five sensors, the lock of the pack would automatically jam, preventing the contestant from opening it with the key.
Only one pack held the prize of £1000. Neither contestant knew their start location or whether their backpack contained the prize. The backpack keys were hidden in secret locations and each contestant had to complete a challenge to obtain the key to their partners backpack.
