This is the second time YSTV recreated the popular Channel 4 show "Hunted", with this episode being collectively produced between Thomas Schubert, Andrew Waddle and Cal Cooke. Due to the popularity and success of the first episode by Edwin Barnes, the team decided to go bigger in every single way imaginable. Therefore, the production became one of the major shows during the 2019/20 academic year. The winners of this episode were Olivia Gibbs and Joe Radford.

Production

Hunted episode 2 was first mentioned around the time of the filming of YSTV does Hunted due to such a large number of people being interested in taking part in the show. It was planned to be done during the summer term of 2019, but was inevitably delayed through to November. Shooting was planned primarily around fixing problems with Episode 1 and expanding upon it's scale. The format was adapted slightly to include both; more hunters and hunted teams, and a control room setup showing the direction of the Hunters.

The actual shooting day took roughly 4 hours start to finish, with minimal pickups other than the last chase sequence (due to a recording error by Olivia Gibbs and Joe Radford) and the control room table shots. These were a thought mentioned late into planning of the episode by Andrew Waddle who also took charge of making the final graphics. In retrospect, these shots should have had more planning before effectively being made up in post.
