NARRATOR: 18 ordinary Australians are about to leave their lives behind...
..and go on the run as fugitives.
Phones and laptops.
MAN: Being on the run, I know that it's a game we can win together.
MAN 2: Thumbs scan, please.
We've been studying espionage and how to blend in.
I've always thought I'm a little bit like Jason Bourne.
I'll sit in a, you know, cafe or something,
I've already looked where the exit doors are.
(WAND BEEPS)
We both think strategically.
We've got escape routes.
We have a good comms plan to really help us evade the Hunters.
We'll always be on the lookout.
So... Paranoia will be real.
Phones and laptops.
WOMAN: He's a rally driver, and I'm his co-driver.
We're ultra competitive.
You're flat-out or you die trying.
I'm sure the Hunters are a good team.
They've got a lot of experience.
But our team shouldn't be underestimated either.
SECURITY: Go.
So, good luck to you.
Over here.
WOMAN: I'm a competitive body builder.
MAN: I was a Muay Thai fighter for a period of my life,
and we've dramatically changed how we train.
We want to be fitter than the Hunters.
Yeah.
SECURITY: Face me, arms up.
We're training for the sole purpose of being more athletic.
They're not going to catch us.
Go.
I want bragging rights.
Over here.
Shelli and I are cousins and she's very daring.
And I'm as daring as well.
You're daring-er.
Daring-er? That's not a word.
I'm sorry. OK. Well, you're... BOTH: More daring.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
SECURITY: Face me. Arms out.
They call us sometimes boomers, which is a bit of an insult.
I thought you were going to say cougars!
(LAUGHS) No, boomers.
SECURITY: Scan.
We can keep up with the young ones.
Facing me.
But we're going to be seen as the low hanging fruit.
So I want to prove that we're not.
Go.
But what these nine fugitive pairs don't know is...
..before they go on the run...
Go.
..they must first steal their prize money...
Whoa.
..in the biggest twist...
(LAUGHS) ..in Hunted history.
Holy crap.
"$1 million is being held at the Savings Bank of Ballarat."
Oh, my God, $1 million.
OK.
(LAUGHS)
(GASPS)
Here we go.
Come on!
OK.
Dammit!
"As a group, you must break into the bank and steal the money.
"If you can evade capture from the Hunters for the next 20 days,
"the money is yours to keep."
Whoo! Life-changing.
"Only one of you will take part in the robbery.
"Your team-mate will plan your getaway."
"The robbery will take place in 12 hours."
OK. "Decide your roles. Good luck."
I think it's me for the robbery.
I think logistics-wise, getaway is probably me.
Yeah. Let's do it. Done.
I'll plan it, and then you're gonna rob the bank.
I'm gonna rob the bank. Yeah.
I'm robbing that bank. Yeah.
(LAUGHS)
OK, we're going to have to decide. Yeah. So what do you think?
You're the robbery...robber and I'm the planner.
OK. Yeah! Let's do it. Ah!
With only 12 hours until the robbery,
the nine fugitive pairs must now split.
Is this for real? We're gonna get $1 million?
The planners are headed to a predetermined getaway point,
1.5 hours south in the port city of Geelong.
For the robbers remaining on the outskirts of Ballarat...
..plans to execute the heist have been carefully prepared
by an expert.
KEN ASHWORTH: My name is Ken Ashworth.
I'm a retired detective inspector from Victoria Police.
I served for 44 years,
and in my time at the Armed Robbery Squad,
I would have locked up in excess of 20 armed robbers.
Whilst this robbery has been constructed,
I've provided enough obstacles,
so it represents real-life activity.
The robbers will have to break in,
be confronted with walls and bars,
not be detected,
get their cash, and get away.
Generally, bank robberies are over and done with
in about two to three minutes.
So, time is of the essence
because they know no matter how well they plan it,
an alarm will be going off somewhere.
MAN: Nervous?
WOMAN: Yeah! WOMAN 2: Yeah.
What the heck? Wow!
KEN: This is a group of ordinary people
who don't go around robbing banks.
Alright! What is this?!
They may panic. That's when mistakes will be made.
Is everyone confident?
I'm a little bit nervous.
So I would be very surprised if everybody made it out.
(LAUGHS) One way or the other, this is happening, right?
Yeah, yeah, shit yeah. There's no getting out of this.
We got this! Alright. Bank.
Right?
(LAUGHTER)
It's a good start.
So has anyone ever used wire cutters?
Bolt cutters?
Who's good at what? What do we have?
My name is Chelsea, and I actually work at a bank, so I'm like...
(CHEERING) Chelsea!
Inside info! I love that!
And my name is Joe.
I'm a comedian, which means I'm good at spending money.
Yeah!
What are we gonna do?
As you can see, we need three people
to break in into this bank foyer area.
So what we need is using an angle grinder to cut through metal bars.
We need to smash the glass window with a crowbar.
I'm not sure if it's super useful, but I like smashing stuff.
I want to use the crowbar
because I'm probably the strongest person in the group.
What do you bench press?
I can bench 140.
Perfect. Yeah.
I'm happy to help with this.
So I think we go for the tellers first.
Yep.
And then tackle the cabinet.
Yeah, I agree.
Inside the cabinet, we need to find the key
to get into the key-locked safe.
So whilst I haven't cracked a safe myself,
my dad was a professional safecracker for 20 years.
I would be happy to give it a shot to try and see what I can do.
Yeah.
My dad was Barry Goode
and he's most well-known for his safe cracking attempts
across multiple states in Australia.
So he's lived a life and a lot of that has been on the run.
So identify the safe, if it's got any weaknesses.
Mm-hm.
As a fugitive, it actually makes the experience a lot more meaningful
knowing that dad was on the run.
I think it will help me understand more of where he came from.
My dad did end up getting caught
and spent many years incarcerated,
but I'm hoping that I can actually get away with it.
With $1 million on the line, I'll run fast.
We've got Deb, Lee, and Chelsea. You guys are going to the cupboard.
Three amigos, let's go.
While you guys are breaking into the bank foyer,
we'll be focusing on the strong room.
This will be a little bit tougher, alright?
In the strong room, we've got the safety deposit boxes.
Use the wire cutters to cut a hole through the fence and climb onto the balcony.
And then break through the fortified wall.
Well, I think I'll be good with the wire cutters.
As a hairdresser, I'm used to cutting hair, so it can't be that hard.
However you want to do a hole.
I'll probably go around.
Alright. I love being in control...
We've got to disable their camera.
We've got the spray.
..but I'm not a "control freak" to that extent.
OK. So, one, two and three, four.
And you. And me.
You're it. Five.
I'll be the five.
I worked for a global IT company.
We worked with ASIO and CIA.
I do know what the Hunters are capable of.
So it's a great opportunity to be the "pseudo" James Bond
that you never were or never was.
Driver stays with the van and acts as a lookout, right?
TONY: Ah, cool.
I reckon I'd be the best getaway driver,
'cause that's what I do for a living.
I drive rally cars.
There won't be a car that we can't outrun.
I'm not a bad person. I'm never going to be a criminal.
But it's high pressure, high stakes, and rallying is very similar.
There's no one going to catch us.
From a driver's point of view, I adapt on every corner.
That whole mindset is going to be what gets us over the line...
Hopefully.
Opportunity of a lifetime.
We get to steal a million dollars.
Yes! ALL: Yeah! Whoo!
That's life-changing.
That's my wedding and a house.
I want to travel Europe and I want to do it properly.
So I think this would be amazing for me.
We're eager.
TONY: This is a million bucks we're talking about.
We can make it happen.
What if anyone really drops the ball?
Well, we won't get any money.
If one person drops the ball, we're getting nothing.
The Hunters are going to have this place cornered straight up.
We're going to have to get in and get out pretty quick.
We should be in and out...half an hour?
TONY: No stuffing it up.
Yeah.
BOBBY: Let's check out what we have here to use for our job.
This is what we need.
Here you go, that one.
This newly-formed gang of thieves will split
whatever prize money they steal from the bank evenly...
..to then carry on the run with their teammates.
I've got to find the holes.
(LAUGHS)
So if they take nothing,
they'll all leave this game empty-handed.
WOMAN: Yeah, blue's my colour.
I'm a bartender and a big social butterfly.
So, show me the money.
What do you guys think?
Most people would expect me to go on, like, Love Island or MAFs
or something like that.
But, no, definitely not.
I want to go on Hunted.
Ar-r-r. (PURRS) Ar-r-r.
I mean, who doesn't want to be on the run?
Running away from the cops?
MAN: Oh-h, we can be cat burglars.
Meow. (LAUGHS)
The robbers have been provided the necessary tools and equipment
to complete the job.
But they only have limited time to prepare.
MAN: Everything I'm feeling right now...
..is exactly what I feel before I do a comedy show.
My heart's racing.
There's a lot of blood pumping through my body.
And, er, I'm nervous, I'm anxious.
Because knowing there's $1 million on the line is very thrilling.
That was scary.
Do we know what we're doing?
No.
Time will also be against them once they break into the bank
because an alarm will be triggered...
..and the Hunters alerted that the game has begun.
(ENGINE STARTS)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
While their teammates wait to be reunited with them in Geelong...
TONY: Ladies and gentlemen, all the best.
..these nine ordinary Australians will attempt to steal $1 million
without getting caught.
Tools. ALL: Check.
Stepladder. ALL: Check.
Joe, you got the spray can?
Check.
If the fugitives can pull off this heist
and outrun the Hunters for the next 20 days,
they get to keep the cash as their prize money.
You guys ready? We're gonna do this.
We hope.
But if one gets captured at the bank...
..it means, for that fugitive pair...
..it's game over.
Go, guys.
Good to go. Alright, everybody out.
Left side, tools.
Stepladder, one...
Foyer team.
Sledgehammer. Tools, yeah.
We're at the first location, Tony.
Excellent.
We're gonna grind off these bars, smash the window, and then hop in.
Alright. Luke, go!
Ladder up yet, guys?
Doin' good, big dog.
It's coming along nicely, mate.
Whoo!
Holy.
Once the teller team break the window,
the silent alarm will be triggered,
alerting the Hunters to their location and that it's game on.
You guys in?
Yep. We're about to smash the window.
TONY: (OVER RADIO) Copy that. Let me know.
He's ready?
The Hunters have been expecting the game to commence
once nine fugitive pairs are released somewhere near Melbourne.
(PHONE RINGS)
Hunter Headquarters.
They're only now finding out there's been a bank robbery...
..and it's game on in Ballarat.
You're joking!
The Hunters' real-life skills as former police,
British intelligence,
military personnel,
and cyber experts,
will be put to the test.
At the helm is the new chief, Reece Dewar.
Hunter Headquarters, listen in.
ALL: Yes, Chief.
There's a robbery in progress at the Savings Bank at Ballarat.
The silent alarm has been tripped.
The suspects are still inside the bank.
Team, this just got real.
We cannot let bank robbers get away.
Cyber team, I need CCTV from inside the bank
and anything on the outside.
BOTH: Yes, Chief.
Stepping up from deputy on the last hunt,
Reece is no stranger to leading large-scale tactical operations.
How much money was in that bank?
How much money's been taken?
He served 20 years with the Australian Defence Force
and commanded special forces teams in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Working in Special Operations Command Australia,
I've hunted terrorists
and I learnt resilience and mental toughness.
I'm going to bring the same level of intensity to the hunt.
OK, everybody,
this next 24 hours is going to be absolutely crucial.
Returning to the role of deputy is former MI6 sniper Ben Owen.
Let's dig into their digital footprints,
let's find out who these people are, why they're together,
why they're on the run,
and, crucially, why they think they can beat us.
Let's get to it, guys.
And HQ's newest recruit is intelligence lead
Carla Coslovich.
CC, let's work up a suspect list.
Yes, Chief.
With a security operations background
and over 16 years in law enforcement,
CC brings experience in intel-gathering
and interrogation.
This is a good old-fashioned cat-and mouse-chase,
and there is a fine line between the hunter and the hunted.
Yeah.
My reputation is on the line here.
I am passionate and driven,
and I'm going to use that passion to hunt you down.
All call signs, this is the Chief.
This is not a drill.
There is a robbery in progress at the Savings Bank of Ballarat.
I need you to deploy to this location directly.
HQ, Alpha, good copy.
Delta, copy.
Scattered around Victoria are four teams of expert ground hunters.
Each is in a race against time to reach the bank in Ballarat.
Yeah, Headquarters, this is Charlie.
We are 20 minutes from that bank,
20 minutes.
Charlie, you are the closest call sign.
Move now.
MAN: Let's go, let's go!
Having already been on site for 15 minutes,
the wannabe robbers now have less than 20 minutes
before Team Charlie arrive to stop them
from stealing the million dollars.
Let's go!
DEB: Alright, let's go, guys.
So, jimmy them open.
Yeah, grab the hammer, just smash it.
The teller crew have broken in
and are already claiming the foyer cash...
Alright, grab it all, guys, don't leave anything.
CHELSEA: And then look for the key.
BOBBY: Everybody feeling OK?
Yeah. It's just, like, to get this hole big enough.
..whilst the robbers try to access the strongroom
at the rear of the bank have hit a snag.
ONDEANE: Do you think you can go a bit higher?
So, do you reckon cut... Start going around there?
Cut that across to your left, where you are now.
Cut across here? Yeah, get rid of it.
I don't understand what you're saying.
Cut that across already.
But is that where we want to go through?
Yes.
But then that's going to be too small, though.
God! Come on, come on.
JOE: Keep going, Luke! Faster!
Alright. Alright, I'm going in.
With the balcony breached... I'm coming up.
..the five-person crew must cut through steel bars,
and force their way through a heavily fortified wall.
Time's getting away.
People are starting to wake up, and things are starting to happen.
(RADIO BEEPS) Headquarters, this is Charlie.
15 minutes. 15 minutes, out.
TAYLA: Alright, we're all in,
and we're cutting through the bars.
Four bars off.
LUKE: Good job, guys!
BOBBY: It's out! Drill!
Gotta go quicker.
We gotta get out of here. Man, I'm freaking out, out here.
Alright, we're coming through the wall quite quickly.
Alright, the holes are all done.
Chisel, hammer, let's go.
We're about to start chiselling through.
CHARLIE: OK, we're just gonna go straight to the front door
and just go straight in.
Alright, we're just about in.
TONY: What's going on? Sun's coming up.
We've got to get out of here.
Let's go, guys, watch your head. LUKE: Go, go, go, go, go!
Once they penetrate the strongroom cage...
Clear? MAN: Camera disabled.
Camera is off! Let's go.
Oh!
..which guards the safety deposit boxes...
Start cutting, Joe.
..a second alarm will be triggered
and the Hunters informed of their progress.
That's it! TAYLA: Alright!
ONDEANE: Guys! Let's go!
OK, let's go!
(ALARM BLARES)
The Hunters are coming!
Alarm, alarm!
Hurry up, guys! What's going on?
So the alarm has gone off.
The alarm's just gone off.
REECE: (OVER RADIO) Charlie, the suspects are still in the bank.
Send ETA, your location. Over.
Headquarters, this is Charlie.
We are five minutes out.
Five minutes.
I need you to roll in hot.
Let's get a capture.
(CHEERING)
(ALARM CONTINUES) BOBBY: Let's go! Get the money out!
10 bags each. Let's go!
Time's getting away, guys. That's the safe.
With just over $300,000 in the teller area...
So, now we're going to find the key.
..the robbers have bagged most of the cash...
We're just trying to find the safe key.
..but they still need to access
the $73,000 locked in the safe.
It might be on the safe, somewhere in the safe.
Let's go!
TAYLA: There's a crowbar.
Don't leave anything behind.
LEE: Can you pick a lock? DEB: No, I can't pick a lock!
If we don't find this key, guys,
we're walking out with a lot less money.
No hammers! Use the crowbar! Use the crowbar!
CHELSEA: If we don't find this key, we're out.
(ALARM BLARES)
Hurry up, guys! What's going on?
The alarm has gone off. The alarm has just gone off.
In Ballarat,
nine of the 18 fugitives are attempting
to steal $1 million from a bank...
OK, we've got the cash from the teller.
We're just trying to find the safe key.
..as the Hunters close in.
We are five minutes out.
Five minutes.
I need you to roll in hot. Let's get a capture.
BOBBY: Go, go, go, go, go!
In the strongroom, there's $700,000 still up for grabs.
JOE: Just open it.
Go, go, go!
I'll show you. Look. Yeah.
Alright, you guys, get the money out!
Whilst in the teller area...
Might be on the safe, somewhere in the safe.
..the safe contains just over $70,000
and is proving difficult to access.
Can you pick a lock? DEB: No, I can't pick a lock!
If we don't find this key, guys,
we're walking out with a lot less money.
LUKE: I'll grab the cash and put it out here.
Put it into... Straight in the bag, straight in the bag!
Don't leave anything behind!
10 bags each. Let's go, let's go!
Stakes are high and we're not talking rump steak.
For former Armed Robbery Squad investigator Graeme Simpfendorfer...
There's some skin in the game now.
..this game of Hunted is personal.
I've spent many years chasing armed robbers,
and in this case, the robbery at the bank is going
to be right in my wheelhouse.
Watch out!
LUKE: Alright, double-check. Coming through!
Yeah, this is completely clear.
The game has shifted levels.
We're going to be upping the ante,
and there will be no strategy that is off the table.
We will get dirty.
LUKE: How...? Use the crowbar, use the crowbar!
In my time in the armed robbery areas of Victoria Police,
the crimes that have been committed there have some sort of planning
that attached to them.
That's similar to the hunt.
ONDEANE: Why can't I open it?
So, we need to stay ahead of what the fugitives are thinking
and what their plan may be.
No hammers, crowbar!
I'll be looking at each one of these fugitives
as if they are an armed robber on the run.
Alright, well, these are all clear.
We're not going easy on these fugitives whatsoever.
We are the Hunters, and we are very good at what we do,
so they need to get very prepared for being our prey.
Crime should not pay.
TONY: Have you found the key yet, guys? What's going on?
Struggling to find the key. We're trying a hammer approach.
LEE: There's no way.
ONDEANE: Give it to me. I'll put it there.
I lose the weight for you.
Alright, we got one, two.
In the strongroom, the robbers have bagged most of the cash.
Seven, eight, nine. One more in this bag.
Whatever cash they secure will be their prize money
to take on the run.
That all the money? Clear! Go, go, go, go, go, go!
OK, let's start packing this up.
Headquarters, this is Charlie.
We are three minutes out. Three minutes.
Righto, Team Charlie is three minutes out.
JAY: Let's go, Charlie. Red-handed, red-handed!
Watch your fingers!
TEAM: Let's go, let's go. Go!
Go, go, go, go!
TONY: Come in! Quick! Jump in!
One will be holding in a getaway vehicle, Chief,
guarantee it.
TONY: Come on, guys, how are we going with that key?
DEB: No, we're struggling to find it.
Guys, the alarm has been going off for a while,
we don't have much time.
Sorry, guys, we got to go. Let's go.
Let's go! Let's go!
Bolt cutters.
Good job, good job! Go, go, go!
CHELSEA: Run!
(BLEEP) Oh... (BLEEP) It got me!
(BLEEP)
DEB: Where's Lee? Hurry up!
Get in, get in, get in! WOMAN: Let's go!
(CHAOTIC SHOUTING)
BOBBY: Let's go, let's go, let's go!
WOMAN: Whoo!
(CHEERING)
LUKE: Big success.
Whoa! That was an adrenaline rush!
Out of a possible $1 million,
the fugitives have escaped
with $927,000.
(ALARM CONTINUES)
CHARLIE: Roger that. Just inside the bank.
No eyes on at this stage.
(SIGHS)
The Hunters have no idea where the fugitives are headed next...
..but they're yet to access the security camera footage
of the robbery.
They, uh... There's no sign of them at all.
Chief, we've requested cameras outside the bank to get any movement,
so we can further patch that together outside.
Yeah, righto.
The role of the deputy when hunting a fugitive is to make sure
that we do not miss a trick.
Every piece of intelligence that comes into this room,
I analyse and I disseminate and get the Hunter Force acting.
Ben, we've got that CCTV footage from outside the bank.
Putting it up on the big screen now.
Awesome. Thank you, Jane.
Oh, right. Van, van, van.
What is that rego?
Rego, we need rego.
Charlie, there's a white van.
CHARLIE: Right, let's get the car, Kim.
Toyota HiAce, license plate number, prepare to copy.
The first 24 hours of this hunt is absolutely critical
to get an idea of directions of travel for the fugitives,
to understand their background, their motivations.
These individuals have stolen money, and they're on the run with it.
And I can tell you now, this is the most motivated
this Hunter team has ever been.
I need to get that chopper up shortly.
Can we get that ANPR in straightaway?
So, we get the ANPR out of Ballarat.
I'll get you exact locations, but outbound on the M8.
Yep.
Outbound on the A300. Yep.
ANPR is Automatic Number Plate Recognition for any vehicle
that passes through a gantry on a freeway or a road
that collects the data for numberplate.
That will tell us the direction of travel the van is going.
We're going to put a ring around Ballarat.
Yeah, copy that.
The getaway van is now travelling 1.5 hours south
to the marina in the port city of Geelong.
There, the nine fugitives will rendezvous with their team-mates,
who are spread out along escape routes
they've pre-planned with their partners.
It's all a waiting game at this point.
And I'm here for it.
Chief, I've worked up a list of suspects for you.
Righto, CC, let's get them on the backboard.
Yes, Chief. Team, backboard!
MAN: Roger that. Yes, Chief.
The only information provided to HQ are the names, ages,
and hometowns of the fugitive pairs.
Alright, listen up, Hunters.
Our first suspects -
Romanee Virgara, 25, from Adelaide Hills in South Australia.
She is with suspect Chelsea Hancock,
26, from Devonport in Tasmania,
both from interstate, both coming to Victoria.
What is their motivation and how do they know each other?
CHELSEA: So I grew up on a cattle farm.
ROMANEE: I grew up on a vineyard.
We've been best friends for almost 10 years now.
Yeah.
Um, we met through ex-boyfriends who are no longer around.
They're alive!
They're just no longer with us!
She matched my energy from the moment I laid eyes on her.
Sound like a married couple! (LAUGHS)
I think growing up on a farm has definitely made us tough.
You're just always thinking about what could go wrong, what to do next.
You've got to be resourceful.
I think our ability to stay physically fit
as well as mentally fit is going to be super key
to making sure that we get right through to the end.
Jayde Heath, 24, from the Gold Coast in Queensland.
She is with Tayla Hunt, also 24,
from the Gold Coast, Queensland.
I was actually quite worried about that mug shot
because I'm like, I can pull some pretty
"How ya going?" faces!
And it doesn't get me... I hope they're going to be banging.
..on the right time... Yeah.
You always want a hot mug shot, you know?
Yeah.
Yes, we do get mixed up quite a lot. A lot, a lot!
I feel like we could use that to our advantage
to get what we want in certain areas.
My heart's pumping.
My brain's just thinking of everything right now.
I'm trying to remember our route.
You know, we just look like two little blonde girls
that have no hope,
but we've really studied this, we've prepared.
We are definitely counting on being underestimated
by the Hunters.
I know the train's at 12, 30, 52.
Really should have packed a watch.
Chief, our next suspect is Akec Makur Chuot.
She's 31 from Seddon.
And she's with Joe White, 38, from Altona in Victoria.
What is their relationship?
I'm Akec. I'm twe... 21! (LAUGHS)
21!
God, you must have a terrible face cream!
We're so sorry! Go again!
I'm Akec. I'm 31.
I'm Joe. I'm a comedian.
I had a show called Match Made In Covid,
where I would get singles on, on Instagram Live
and I'll try to match them.
And so Akec was one of the singles.
And guess what, guys?
Very hard to find her a man!
Still single! Still single!
I definitely think that Hunters will underestimate us
because no one takes a comedian seriously.
But at the same time, that gives us the chance to really show them
what we're made of.
So bring it on.
Show me the money!
The fugitives have split the $927,000 evenly,
giving each team $103,000.
Just remember, we've got to carry all this dough.
They must carry it at all times.
And if they can evade the Hunters for the next 20 days
and make it to extraction, it's theirs to keep.
But first, they need to reach their team-mates.
TONY: We're out of town now, guys.
You better keep an eye out, because we're sitting ducks out here
before we can blend in with the traffic.
Chief? Yep.
We've had a hit on the mobile ANPR.
Right.
(OVER RADIO) Alpha, Alpha, this is the Chief.
Rabbit, I need you to get over the Ballarat area.
Firm heading towards Ballarat.
We have identified a White HiAce,
license plate - Bravo, Echo, nine...
Yeah, Rabbit. Good copy.
Chopper, guys. WOMAN: There's a chopper.
What? MAN: There it is.
Left hand side. Potential target.
Rabbit to HQ. I have a vehicle matching that description.
REECE: Our live chopper feed on the big screen.
Right, that's our vehicle.
They're on to us.
After robbing the Savings Bank of Ballarat,
nine fugitives are on the run
with the stolen $927,000.
Standby, units, we have the aircraft up
and it's currently looking at the vehicle.
RABBIT: (OVER RADIO) I can see four fugitives.
They're driving the getaway van south to the port city of Geelong,
where they have planned to rendezvous with their team-mates.
That's positive ID.
Anyone identify that person driving that vehicle?
Tony Sullens?
Never give up! Never die!
My concern is it's not just the ones in the helicopter.
Geelong is the second-biggest city in the state,
so I dare say you're going to have someone there...
Yep.
..so we could be heading into a bit of a trap here.
RABBIT: Firm, that vehicle is travelling east towards Geelong.
We got anyone near Geelong?
(MOUTHS INAUDIBLY)
I think we'll keep Bravo tracking into CBD, Chief.
Delta can go towards Geelong and Charlie obviously will be...
Yeah, we'll do that. ..conducting investigations there.
Delta, 1h 17min.
We are looking at this live,
we've got bank robbers on the streets.
For the fugitives to be on the run with close to $1 million,
it's definitely upped the ante.
This is Rabbit. That vehicle is now approaching the Geelong marina.
Can we get live monitoring of Geelong railway station? Yep.
In my view, they are criminals.
We're going to not only capture the fugitives,
we're going to recover the money.
They don't stand a chance.
LEE: Alright, guys, get ready.
MAN: Here we go.
WOMAN: Go, go!
Catch ya!
RABBIT: (OVER RADIO) Fugitives have been released.
We have multiple fugitives, Starburst.
ONDEANE: Oh, my God! BOBBY: Here we go, here we go!
Adrenaline's kicked in.
I think I just shit meself.
For the next 20 days,
the 18 fugitives must stay on the move.
We have three pairs travelling east.
We have four travelling west.
Each team that makes it to the extraction point on day 20
will get to keep the $103,000 in their bag.
LEE: Come on!
On the run with each fugitive pair is a camera operator
dressed to blend in and carrying only a small camera
to record their every move.
I'm currently tracking one fugitive heading west along the marina.
REECE: Rabbit, I need you to stay on that fugitive.
Stay on that fugitive. Who is that?
GRAEME: Chelsea Hancock. That's Chelsea Hancock, Chief.
Chelsea has just become priority one.
RABBIT: (OVER RADIO) The fugitive has gone under a tree.
That could have been an RV point.
Who's that right in that area?
CC: That's her partner, Romanee.
Let's do it!
I think going on the run as a fugitive
is going to be exactly like working on a farm.
You do not stop until all the work is done.
Keep going. Rain, hail, or shine.
Don't drop that! Over $100,000!
One blonde hair, one black hair.
Heading south towards Cunningham Street.
Get in here.
Get changed.
Right, they've gone into what appears to be a car park.
They're right there.
GRAEME: Is there any other way out of there?
It doesn't look like it, does it? BEN: No.
North and south, Cunningham, that's the only way.
They're right there.
CC: They don't know what to do. They're spooked.
How ya going? Oh, hi!
Do you mind if - we're fugitives on the run -
do you mind if we borrow your phone to make a call?
A quick call? BOTH: Thank you.
Can you come in here with us?
Thank you so much.
Calling our mate that lives here in Geelong...
..to hopefully come and get us.
MAN: (OVER PHONE) Hello? BOTH: Hey, Tom.
It's Rom and Chelsea.
Are you or your mum around, free to pick us up from Geelong?
Do you mind giving her a call? Like, an urgent call.
And then calling us back immediately?
Yeah, we can do that. OK.
Delta, we have eyes on two fugitives.
They've gone into a car park.
Can you give me ETA to that location? Over.
HQ, this is Delta. We are 30 minutes out.
Roger that.
We're changing into nurses scrubs.
Which looks a little bit similar to our getaway suits, but...
(PHONE RINGS)
Hello?
So, Mum's not coming, but a friend of ours, Sue...
Oh, perfect! Yup?
..is coming and she's going to meet you.
Yep.
BOTH: Perfect. Thank you so much.
NARRATOR: Country girls, Romanee and Chelsea must traverse three blocks
to meet their new getaway driver, Sue.
OK, I think we just cruise along the edge of the building.
Yeah.
Here we go, here we go.
Alright, you good? I'm good, yeah.
Don't drop that cash.
RABBIT: Confirm. I've got eyes on both of those individuals.
Yeah, there he is, right behind us,
and he's literally following.
Yeah, they're right there. Just quick jog.
Those two females are heading south,
heading south from that location.
Stay close to the wall.
Stay right close to the wall.
When do you need to land to refuel?
PILOT: I've got 10 minutes' fuel remaining.
He's got 10 minutes until he has to land.
Delta, this is Ops. Can you give ETA, Geelong? Over.
Chief, we're still 15 minutes from Geelong.
Ah! (MOUTHS INAUDIBLY)
CC: We're going to lose sight soon.
Did you get the money? Yeah, I got it.
We gotta go, we gotta go.
The nine bank robbers have all reunited with their team-mates...
TONY: The money! Go you, driver!
..each carrying their share of the $1 million prize.
JOE: Let's go. Is it good?
We made it!
We have to get as far away from here as we possibly can.
And while the fugitive pairs begin to spread out in Geelong,
country girls Romanee and Chelsea are being tailed by the Hunters....
Wait under this tree over here by the lights.
Yeah.
..as they try to find their getaway driver, Sue.
You got to think about the fact that ground hunters are so close.
What did he say? Red MG...
Red MG or a silver... ..or a silver Jag.
Red MG! There it is!
OK, OK. OK.
There it is.
Can we get in the back? Just get in, get in!
CC: They're getting in the car.
MG. It's an MG?
Rabbit, can we get a license plate number?
License plate number.
672.
Jane, you got that? JANE: Copy.
Red MG. We want owner details and whether it has telematics.
Copy that.
Telematics is an in-built system which tracks GPS coordinates
in real-time.
But not all vehicles are equipped with this feature.
Stay on that vehicle.
Confirm turning, heading west.
Can you see the...?
'Cause it feels like it's not getting any quieter.
Far out.
JANE: Hey, Ben, the red MG that Romanee and Chelsea are in
is owned by a person called Susan.
I've got the details.
I'm just going to send those to you right now.
Perfect. Thank you, Jane.
I think the sooner we just get out of here...
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, that might actually be a good idea.
Confirm, about to lose sight.
The vehicle is still heading...
..duly north-west on Western Beach Road.
But that's me off target.
Can you see it? No, I can't see it anymore.
Right, the chopper's run out of fuel.
It's disappointing.
We had Romanee and Chelsea in our crosshairs.
We've now lost sight of them, but we will find that red MG.
We're going to recover the money.
Now, technically, to get us back on that vehicle,
telematics would be awesome.
Still in Geelong...
..two teams are headed to the same location.
Train station, train station. Where is it?
Gold Coast friends, Jayde and Tayla...
..and IT specialist Bobby and daughter Tanisha.
Tanisha! Tanisha! Stop, stop, stop!
Where are you going? The station.
They're unaware the Hunters are already monitoring Geelong station.
Do you want to get changed?
Yeah.
We're changing into tradies. To help us get out of here.
Geelong is, like, a very known area for...
Tradie site right next to us.
I've known Dad since I came out of the womb.
Yeah, since you went and looked at me,
I went like, "Yeah, look at you!" And you went, "Argh!"
I need to change the shorts.
When you just do embarrassing stuff,
I kind of just say, "Dad, shut it!" Yeah, it's just Dad!
Don't run too fast!
Whoo!
20 years we've been... I've been putting up with you.
Do you count the nine months in Mum's stomach?
Yeah, I count even... Did you know me?
..the three minutes before that.
Ew! (LAUGHS)
Dad... I know...
..shall we call this guy's...
Hey, mate, I... Shh! Tanisha, no! Walk!
Yeah. Are you able to?
Can you? Can you give us a lift? Can you?
Anywhere towards Melbourne. Anywhere but here!
Nah, don't worry.
I'm not a 19th-century dad.
Technology is probably one of my best friends.
I love technology, I can disappear within six hours
off the grid completely, never to be found.
Really? I'm... Yes!
Are we going in? Yeah.
This is the biggest risk, Dad.
To travel on public transport in Victoria,
the fugitives must purchase a myki.
If the Hunters can get their card number,
they'll receive an alert when the myki is used.
WOMAN: Chief? Yes.
CCTV is coming in from the Geelong train station.
Yeah, righto, let's have a look at the screen.
BEN: That's no. No.
Here we go. (CHUCKLES)
CC: Hi-vis! Oh, wow! Cheeky!
Hi-vis. That's one way of doing it.
It looks like Tanisha and Bobby.
And they've got the duffel bag,
so you've got the cash on them there.
So, if they've gone to a ticket machine...
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Righto, yep.
That's definitely them.
They're buying tickets.
Then we'll put a request in for the ticket sales.
That will be awesome.
We know exactly the time they spoke to this teller,
then purchased myki card,
so we can get the myki card numbers.
Hold up a second! There!
Is that not Jayde and Tayla there?
The blonde hair? In the blue jeans?
Yeah. Yeah.
WOMAN: It could be. KARLA: Oh, my God, yes.
So, four fugitives at the train station.
Tanisha, let's change out of this.
NARRATOR: Before Tanisha and Bobby tap on with their myki cards,
they change out of their hi-vis.
TANISHA: That's fantastic.
..and are offered a lift away from the station.
Freaking heck, we love you so much!
So what made you decide to change your minds?
Sorry, what's your name? Lucy.
Jaime. Jaime.
So, father and daughter? Father and daughter.
Amazing, yes!
Dad-and-daughter team.
Hey, Ben. Yeah.
We've got CCTV outside the Geelong station.
Tanisha and Bobby.
They've been picked up in a Ford Ranger.
Whoo-hoo!
I've got the rego. Yep.
It can be seen exiting the station car park
and heading north on Mercer Street.
Fantastic, great.
Find out who the vehicle, the getaway driver is.
Tanisha and Bobby would be awesome.
Yeah, leave the Ford Ranger with me, mate.
Cheers, mate. Yep. So this is great.
We've got six people in either a vehicle or a train.
This is a really good position here.
We're right behind them, yeah.
We've got Romanee and Chelsea into a red MG.
We saw Jayde and Tayla at the train station,
and Tanisha and Bobby left the train station
and got into a Ford Ranger vehicle.
These are three pairs we could have in the next hour.
JOE: We got the money.
AKEC: The ground hunters will not be far.
It's been 30 minutes since the nine fugitive pairs reunited in Geelong
with the money from the bank heist...
Literally, we all got over $100,000 each, so, like, yeah.
..and began to scatter across southern Victoria.
Where are we? What the hell is this?
Where the hell are we?
Excuse me, Chief.
We've just received CCTV footage from the drop-off zone in Geelong,
so I'm going to pop it up on the big screen for you now.
Thanks.
Let's have a look.
Alright, team, let's see what we can see.
There we go.
The Hunters have ordered CCTV within a one-kilometre radius
from the abandoned getaway van.
OK, looks like the van's now completely empty.
Everyone's gone from Yarra Street.
We've got two fugitives near a phone box.
One running on Eastern Beach Road.
Who is that? MAN: Looks like Deb.
MAN 2: Andy and Deb.
Andy Dunt, he's a serious athlete.
WOMAN: I saw as well, he was a firefighter.
Yep. And that's his wife.
Mm-hm. And he's a bit of a thrill seeker.
Yep. Yep.
Andy's covering his face. Straight into a car park area.
Did they go in or do they go to the side?
They've cut through here.
They've deliberately chosen that path.
And Andy is covering his face because he knows the camera's there.
Cheeky buggers.
They have planned this, well.
Alright.
Heads down for us, Deb.
Married couple Andy and Deb have secured a lift
out of a shopping centre car park with a stranger.
I'm a firefighter.
I joined the fire service in 2005.
I think that I'm pretty good in a crisis.
DEB: I think what's going to give our team the edge
while we're on the run is our ability
to think really quickly and dynamically,
and just being willing to change plans at the last minute.
I think it's super important just to stay away from technology,
I mean, like CCTV cameras, getting pinged on ANPR.
By laying low and not being on their radar too much,
we should be able to hide from the Hunters for quite a while.
Alright, Debs, school hat.
Here you go, sweetheart.
Look at you.
Just like when you met me. Yeah. That's right.
We met at high school. Yeah.
So, we're still together. Childhood sweethearts.
No, no.
This isn't actually, my old... I'm 41 now, so... (LAUGHS)
Deb and I met when I was 19 and she was 16 years old.
I was skating and she walked past
and I thought, "She's pretty cute."
And, yeah, the rest is history. And so it is.
Alright, maybe we'll just get out here, then.
For the past 20 years, we've been parents.
Now with the girls moving on and doing their own thing,
it's our time to go out and have our adventure.
You carry this one now. Thanks, Amanda.
Thanks, Amanda, legend! Really appreciate you.
See you later. Hopefully we'll last a while.
Do we have anything on Deb and Andy?
No. Nothing.
OK, keep hunting, team, keep hunting.
I never thought, coming into work this morning
that I would turn over to the Chief, and he would be saying
that we are now after bank robbers, motivates us significantly.
Priority from the Chief is still Romanee and Chelsea.
I'm still right in saying
we're waiting on telematics on the MG, aren't we?
Waiting on telematics. Fine. OK, roger that.
Telematics are crucial to us.
It allows us to live-track a vehicle.
If Romanee and Chelsea remain in that vehicle,
it tells us exactly where they are, and we're going to catch them.
Chief, there are no telematics on that red MG.
(SIGHS)
Roger. REECE: OK.
Um, what about an address for that vehicle?
Yes, we've got that one.
I'm keen to maybe get a ground-hunt unit there,
because if Susan's back and the vehicle's there...
100%.
..it gives us an indication how far they've driven,
or they might be stupid enough to actually be at Susan's house.
100%.
Rom, don't forget this cash bag here. ROMANEE: I won't.
(SIGHS)
Romanee and Chelsea are at Sue's house,
swapping out Sue's red MG for her husband's grey Jaguar.
Thank you, and we get a ride in a fancy car.
I know, I feel like I'm in James Bond.
Sue is taking Romanee and Chelsea to her friend Leanne's house,
where they plan to spend the night.
Oh, she really is just around the corner.
Yeah, just around the corner.
I think the Hunters will underestimate us.
We're not Victorians, we're not locals.
But we have a lot of good farming connections around Victoria.
The country spirit is to work together,
which is something that
I think will be a huge advantage, for us for sure.
Poor Sue's had an adventure this morning.
Hello. how are you? It's so good to see you.
I'm really good, likewise. Hi, I'm Chels, thank you so much.
This is my best friend, Chels.
Sue is my new favourite person. Yeah!
Oh, she's already better at this than we are.
POLICE: Back it up, back it up, back it up.
Back it up. Eyes on, eyes on.
G'day, how are you?
Looking for the two fugitives that you had in the car this morning.
Whereabouts did you drop them off?
OK.
Do you know where they are? No.
So where's Susan?
I don't know.
So Susan's with them right now. I don't know.
OK, so, Susan, what's the relation of Susan to yourself?
She's my wife.
Your wife, OK. Do you have a contact number for Susan?
SUSAN: The Hunters are in my garage.
Oh, shit, we better go.
Rom, don't forget this cash bag here.
Do you want food or anything?
Did you tell him not to say anything?
Can you tell him not to say anything?
Don't say a thing. You've got to lie.
He's got to lie.
Hey, Susan, how are you going? I'm well, thank you.
You obviously know the reason we're here, Susan.
Yeah, I go by the name of Sue. Oh, sorry, Sue. Apologies for that.
Um, this morning I saw the girls,
both Romanee and Chelsea, in your vehicle.
Can I ask, where did you drop them off this morning?
Um...
Um, whereabouts did you drop them off?
Right, and do you have the address of that, please, Sue?
OK, yes, I do.
HQ Alpha, over.
Hey, team, what have you got for us?
This morning, uh, Sue picked them up in Geelong.
She's then brought them to Leanne's house,
where she is currently there now.
Let's get over to that address.
Keep on the hunt, keep on the sign. Let's get a capture.
Roger that.
That's all within the last 10 minutes to half an hour.
Yeah. So we're right behind them.
We're really close.
I think they're running. Yeah.
So two locations they've been to have been compromised.
And they know that we're on their doorstep right now
and we're not going to stop and they've got nowhere to go.
NARRATOR: Leanne is taking Romanee and Chelsea
to her close friend Christine,
in the hope she's willing to house them for the night.
So, I've got some fugitives...
Fugitives, and we're getting chased by hunters at the moment.
And we were meant to be staying at lovely Leanne's house tonight.
Would you be all right with letting like...
CHRISTINE: Yeah, OK. Thank you.
Fugitives Romanee and Chelsea are carrying the bag
containing the stolen $103,000.
The only thing is, we've got our kit bags with Leanne.
But in the rush to leave Leanne's house,
they forgot their kit bags.
So our kit bags are at Leanne's house.
Because that's where we were planning to be tonight,
peacefully just kicking back.
As part of the game, before going on the run,
each fugitive pair may prepare two kit bags
filled with camping equipment and essentials...
They're like big hiking packs. Big hiking bags.
..and held by a contact to collect during the run.
I think the Hunters are at Susan's.
I think very soon they're going to be at Leanne's.
They'll go to Leanne's.
There could be a grey Jaguar in the driveway.
Yeah, that's a Jag there, yeah.
Wait. Who's that?
I reckon that's her.
Do you reckon? Yep.
I reckon that's her.
G'day, Sue, how are ya?
I'm Marco, this is Luke.
That's right. Yeah, how are you?
I'm well. Oh, great.
Thanks for your time earlier today. That's alright.
So, we're just following up,
you're obviously telling us the truth, you were here.
Yeah.
Do you mind if we have a quick look through the house,
just see where the girls were? OK.
Come on, I just gotta... Thanks so much for that.
Come on in. Cool, thank you.
So this, uh...do you know who owns that backpack there?
OK.
Romanee.
(RINGING)
Yeah, right, Chief, so a quick, hasty search of the house,
I found two backpacks.
Now, um, each backpack has a name.
One is, uh, Chelsea... (LAUGHS)
..and then next backpack we have here is for Romanee.
That is absolutely awesome, mate.
So they're separated from their gear.
They've got no survival mechanism whatsoever by the looks of things.
Yeah, I agree, and these bags are heavy.
One of them, Romanee's, has got a tent on the outside.
What do you reckon, put a tracker in the bag?
Yep, good call.
We've got a tracker in the car.
Can you also deploy a listening device
and the sentry cam there?
Let's monitor that over the next couple of days
and see where it takes us.
This is a vehicle tracker.
Hopefully, we can, uh, slide it into
one of their ground mats or something.
Do you have any idea where you think Leanne could have taken them
when they left here?
(SIGHS)
10 women.
(WHISPERS) I'm gonna put it in their...
I'm gonna put it in their tent.
If they find it while they're setting up out in the bush,
I'll give them the good news.
As a hunter force,
we need to have quite a lot of tools in our armoury.
Covert equipment is crucial to these operations.
We've got a GPS device,
a sentry camera,
and the listening device.
This is real-life stuff.
And most fugitives on the run don't suspect the technical equipment
that we're going to deploy against them.
So we're, um, we're going to head out.
Thank you for all your help this afternoon.
Enjoy your day. Alright.
You too, Sue. I hope you don't catch them.
Yeah, well. Yeah, well, we'll see.
We've set it up,
and now we just lay in wait for Romanee and Chelsea.
I'm stressed, I'm not gonna lie. I'm feeling stressed as hell.
We feel like we need to go back to Leanne's house...
Ugh!
..to then get those kit bags before the Hunters get there.
The important bag. Yeah.
(EXHALES)
Now we need to get into our battle rhythm.
It's been four hours since the heist of the Savings Bank of Ballarat,
and 18 fugitives went on the run in Geelong...
I want these fugitives in the bag.
..with the stolen $927,000.
I put a request in for the bank
to get all the serial numbers of the stolen cash.
Yep.
Our plan is to track
each of these serial numbers of the stolen money.
That will lead to a capture.
I want every single fugitive in the bag for this robbery.
Alright, team, let's have a top table.
Well, chief. It's chief.
Let's start with Romanee and Chelsea.
These are our number one priority.
We believe they're still in the area.
We have a sentry cam in place at Leanne's property.
We deployed a listening device.
We have the backpacks with GPS in them.
When they go back for those backpacks,
we'll know about it.
You know what?
I'm happy to pull the pin on the kit bags.
You honestly don't want our bags at all?
They will be at Leanne's house very shortly
if they're not already there.
We've decided to pull the pin on our kit bags
because it's just too risky.
That's true, that's true.
You're gonna have to wear clothes over and over again
and, like, live on the bare minimum.
But we have to get the Hunters off our tail.
I know we've got a lot of people on this board,
and we are going to get rid of a few of these fugitives today.
So we've got, uh, Joanna and Lee.
That's our wedding.
That's our gym.
That is a baby. Hey!
(LAUGHS)
But the next fugitive pair we're going to look at
is Tanisha and Bobby.
I love you, little one. I know I love you, too.
WOMAN: Father and daughter means they have a really strong bond.
We know they went to Geelong Train Station.
Both purchased Myki cards.
We have their numbers.
No movement has been seen on their Myki cards yet.
They were picked up by a Ford Ranger owned by a chap called Jamie.
Jamie lives down in Ocean Grove.
Team Charlie are down there at the moment.
CHARLIE: We're looking for some fugitives.
Yeah, I've got no idea. I think you do.
What, are you gonna have a look around, are you?
If we can, that'd be good.
Yeah. No worries if you want to look around.
But there's no one here. Alright, that's fine.
That's fine. If we could just have a quick look.
So, um, how do you know them?
I don't. You don't?
No. What?
They just came and approached you? Yeah.
OK. Where'd you drop them off?
Yeah.
We haven't got a capture. I want a capture.
ALL: Yes, Chief.
NARRATOR: As day one draws to a close...
This is literally all we have. This is our whole life in two bags.
..all nine fugitive pairs have held on to their share
of the million-dollar prize...
So we've got 103,000.
Pretty, pretty exciting, but pretty scary...
Pretty scary. ..having all that money on us.
..and found a safe place to bed down for the night.
I'm keen that we go to bed tonight. Yeah.
Today was amazing. Yeah.
You did such a good job.
Thank you. So did you.
Thanks, my girl.
(LAUGHS)
On day two of the game,
the nine fugitive pairs are spread out across Victoria,
with IT specialist Bobby and daughter Tanisha
in Inner City Melbourne at their friend Josh's house.
Clear.
They're headed to a Collingwood brewery
where Josh's friend has agreed to help them.
BOBBY: Getting to the brewery is going to be a bit of a challenge
because Josh cannot hire a car
'cause if he does,
he's going to have to use an app,
use his phone, which is fully traceable.
So we've got to catch public transport.
Tanisha and Bobby will need to take two buses to get there.
They still have the Myki cards they purchased yesterday
at the Geelong train station.
And now it's, like, back in the open.
Just don't overthink it, please, honey.
Just no over paranoia.
OK.
(CARDS BEEP)
Does it feel good to be moving at least?
Yeah.
Just psychologically, it's a little bit more calming.
Yeah. Well, you just feel like a sitting duck, don't you?
JANE: Hey, Ben. Yeah?
We've just had a Myki hit.
Card ending in 593.
The card tapped on at Flemington Street/Brunswick Road.
So this is Bobby and Tanisha.
This is Bobby and Tanisha, and that is on a bus.
And this is now?
This is now, yes.
JANE: Hey, Ben. Yeah.
We've just had a Myki hit.
Card ending in 593.
So this is Bobby and Tanisha?
This is Bobby and Tanisha.
Father, daughter.
And that is on a bus.
And this is now?
This is now, yes.
Jane, can we put a request in for any CCTV on that bus?
Yep. Copy that.
We know the exact time at the exact bus that it was on
so CCTV shouldn't take too long.
OK. Ready?
While HQ awaits CCTV from the first bus...
..IT specialist Bobby and daughter Tanisha
are getting ready to board their second bus.
Have you looked for cameras?
Yeah. No, we're staying out of the sight of camera.
They're headed to a Collingwood brewery...
There's a bus here. Here comes 246.
..to meet their next contact.
How many stops did he say? Six.
Ben? Yep.
We have got CCTV. Sending it through right now.
That is them, guys. That is definitely them.
Yeah. That's them.
Who's that guy?
Passenger or assistant?
He interacts with Tanisha, doesn't he?
Yeah. He does.
Then maybe, um, if he's with them and associated,
I think we've got a good enough look at his face there
to maybe run that through some AI for a positive ID.
Facial recognition technology is ground-breaking for us.
It's advancing every single day.
We can take an image that we identify
either of the fugitive or the network,
we can run it through our software
and find every single other image
that is publicly available in the digital space.
Identify them, and we know everything about that person
in a matter of seconds.
(BELL RINGS)
ANNOUNCEMENT: Bus stopping the next stop.
Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you very much. Thank you.
We've got Bobby and Tanisha's Mykis tapping off at Gipps Street.
Brilliant. Thank you, Jane.
Can we canvas that area for more CCTV requests, please?
There's a pub on the north side
and all the way to the west towards the gym.
Yeah. On it, Ben. Thank you very much.
Bravo. Bravo, headquarters.
MAN: Bravo.
We've now got Myki transactions of when Tanisha and Bobby
tapped off the bus on Gipps Street.
I don't think there's any harm in you starting in Wellington Street
and working your way back.
Bravo. Roger.
If they're there, they're done.
Whew!
Thank you. There you go. There we go.
Thank you mate. Appreciate it.
I love the first stop you came to is a brewery.
That's where... That's where I'd be going too.
You're a fugitive, that's what you do.
Yeah.
I would just go straight from brewery to brewery.
They'd find me on day two.
CCTV is coming in from Gipps Street.
Alright, everyone, big screen.
Tanisha and Bobby.
This is who we're after.
So here they are. Yep. That's them.
Same backpack as the bus. White trainers. Leggings.
OK.
Ben, this is CCTV footage from west Gipps Street.
We haven't sighted Tanisha and Bobby further west.
Um, yeah.
We're working our way back to see where they could have stopped.
We've got the pub, that will have cameras.
OK, so that's a good place for them to check.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
That's here.
TANISHA: Oh, my God. We are getting spoilt.
Bravo, HQ.
Bravo. Send.
BEN: (OVER RADIO) We've picked them up on CCTV.
Heading westbound, they crossed over Hoddle Street,
continued west onto Gipps Street,
in the direction of the Stomping Ground pub.
There's no intel to say they went in there,
but at least just get eyes on for the minute, please.
On our way to get a beer.
Nice, mate.
You good? Yeah.
Currently walking along Gipps Street.
West of the pub now.
Roger that.
Bloody hell.
Guess we can try and get down.
That's them there, isn't it?
Right-o! Put it on the big screen.
Oh, here we go.
Let's go, Bravo! Let's get one in the bag.
Yeah, let's get it done, Bravo!
Eyes on go. Let's go Zack.
Let's go, let's go!
Back of the room, Nic. Go right.
Twice already?
Go with Sergio.
Sergio... (SHRIEKS)
No. No, no.
No!
(WILD CHEERS)
Tanisha and Bobby, your time on the run is over.
You have been hunted down. No. No!
Oh, good going, mate. That's it.
Yes.
Amazing. Well done.
Great job, Bravo!
Oh, no!
Bobby and Tanisha,
how's your, uh, time on the run been?
Mate, it's been interesting.
How did you get... How did you get us?
We're really good at what we do, mate.
(ALL LAUGH)
It's great to see, you know, father and daughter
coming together like this... Thank you.
..but I'm sorry to say your time on the run is over.
Thank you, guys.
(ALL APPLAUD) Peace out.
Woo!
It feels really sweet to get our first capture.
Very proud of the team.
That was a team effort from everyone.
Great work.
Look, we've recovered over $100,000.
That's a huge win for us.
Well done.
(WHOOPS)
Guys!
These fugitives robbed a bank.
I want a clean sweep.
No fugitive is making it to extraction.
HQ, that's Sparrow 1 airborne.
The Hunters are fired up...
Come on.
Game on.
..and ready to play.
They've got no idea we are this close.
Let's ramp it up.
Capture plans are on. Capture plans are deployed.
But the game of Hunted...
They've got 100 grand.
They robbed a bank. Look. (LAUGHS) Oh, yeah?
..has only just begun.
Get out of here! (GIGGLES)
Waving to the Hunters.
Can the fugitives prove they are smarter...
Oh, my God, let's get out of here.
I spent 20 years in the Navy. Bring it on. Catch me if you can.
..stronger...
Jesus, is that her? Look at that definition.
Very intimidating. She could wreck me.
..and faster than the Hunters?
Have we got one? Let's go.
Come on.
You've been hunted down!
With more money on the line than ever before...
Go, go, go!
People are running up. Oh, my God! They're here! They're here!
..will anyone survive the hunt?
Your time on the run's over, mate!
