Bear Grylls versus womankind: TV explorer accused of sexism over new men-only show that tests survival skills on a remote island.

He is a very modern adventurer, a man who has been to the furthest corners of the world and lived to tell the tale, getting by on his own wits and determination.

But it seems that, in his latest battle, Bear Grylls has taken on an opponent stronger than any frozen continent or jungle trekking route – the wrath of womankind.

He stands accused of sexism after Channel 4 announced the latest small-screen show to star the 39-year-old television explorer.

The Island Of Lost Blokes will see 12 hardy souls join Grylls in trying to survive on a desert island using just their instincts and ingenuity.

Fgs - someone people will moan about anything. It's not sexist.
