Treasure Island: Fans v Faves (7.30pm, Mondays to Wednesdays from tomorrow, TVNZ 2)

The popular reality show heads back to where it all began in 1997, with this latest crop of castaways based on a Fijian island.

And, in another change, Bree Tomasel is joined in hosting duties by Shortland Street and Head High actor Jayden Daniels.

There’s a skydiver who has apparently been stabbed in mid-air, a murder on a golf course, a killer at a concert and a mystery at a rehab clinic.
