Critic Reviews

The Guardian Lucy Mangan

Feb 5, 2025

Netflix has overall done its job well. Celebrity Bear Hunt is fast, the contestants are surprisingly funny and the jeopardy – if the third episode’s trailer and tabloid reports of the injuries and near-misses during filming are anything to go by – is real. Or at least more real than usual. Read full review

The Independent Nick Hilton

Celebrity Bear Hunt is kitsch without being camp, and overcooked where it ought to be raw. Read full review

i Tilly Pearce

Holly Willoughby is too friendly as host, giving off a cosy, supportive vibe rather than building tension. The celebs certainly don’t look like they’re particularly suffering and most seem like they don’t want to be there. Read full review

The Times Tim Glanfield

Feb 5, 2025

Much of it feels like the challenges in The Traitors without the rest of the game. What’s more, in her infrequent appearances Willoughby lacks the sass and spirit of Claudia Winkleman or the irreverence of Ant and Dec, leaving the best part of an hour an episode as hard work. Read full review

Joel Keller

Feb 5, 2025

Celebrity Bear Hunt‘s gameplay is a bit confusing, and it would be just fine as a celebrity survival competition without the presence of Bear Grylls, who just seems to slow things down. Read full review

The Telegraph Chris Bennion

Absolutely nothing about the show works. There is no jeopardy, there are no stakes. Read full review
