The Astonishing Escape of Celebrities with the Aid of Local Business
In the year 1983, the esteemed Pritchards of Shrewsbury, a used car dealership, was established. Decades later, this renowned business had the opportunity to become part of a Channel 4’s Celebrity Hunted. The objective was to aid six famous personalities to escape from the former prison of Shrewsbury.
The programme was filled with well-known faces from diverse backgrounds, including comedians James Acaster and Ed Gamble, Strictly star Katya Jones, and Olympic snowboarder Aimee Fuller. Each of these individuals brought their own unique flair to the show.
Jones and Fuller, in particular, turned to the locals to aid in their escape from elite hunters. They enlisted the help of Laurene Pritchard, the owner of Pritchards of Shrewsbury. Pritchard was the key to their success, and she played an integral role in their escape plan.
Interestingly, the escape plan was filled with decoys and intricate details to deceive the hunters. Pritchard revealed that they used three vans parked inside the garage as decoys, which provided the celebrities with an opportunity to escape undetected. They were finally able to make their escape in Pritchard’s car, narrowly escaping the hunters.
Throughout the show, it was revealed that the celebrities relied heavily on strangers and the public for their escape. In fact, they admitted that “the best plan, we found, was no plan.” This showed that the escape was a combination of both spontaneity and strategic planning.
In conclusion, the escapade of the celebrities was truly an extraordinary event, made possible by the aid of a local business. For those interested in watching this thrilling show, Celebrity Hunted can be streamed on All 4, with episodes airing weekly on Channel 4 on Tuesdays at 21:00 BST.
