As per the title, if anyone with a great memory could help it would be much appreciated.........

First one was a reality type show, about 30 people sent somewhere remote (Scotland?) to see if they could survive a year, building their own homes catching food growing crops etc. Think it was a 6 part series showing the first 6 months I believe. I want to see what happened but can't remember the name of it, think it was on channel 4.

The second one I need the name of is harder for me to remember though I know I loved it. People were living in a community that they couldn't escape from, there were human like creatures over the walls surrounding them. Something about being frozen from thousands of years ago. This was an American series. Can't remember any of the actors ☹️.

The first one was where Ben thingy found fame. The posh blond one. He was something to do with Vogue magazine, as I recall? I want to say the island was Taransay?

Ben Fogle

The first one is definitely Eden. I watched the second part of it and I’m sure you can imagine how it ended with all those earthy, free-spirit type egos stuck together for a year.

Definitely Eden. I thought it was a good idea but having one episode a month just didnt work - couldnt remember who was who or what was going on.
IIRC it was nowhere near as popular as they expected and was cancelled after 6 months rather than the planned 12 months.

Yes, Eden and Wayward Pines! Thanks so much!
