‘Not exactly Bear Grylls, is he?’ Robson Green’s desert island ‘survival show’ is mocked on Twitter after he takes a host of luxury items – and even a DOCTOR! One spent 27 years living on a desert island encountering cannibals and pirates along the way, while the other spent three hours on a beach before falling ill and being attended to by a private doctor. They may have a similar first name but the parallels between Daniel Defoe’s 17th century castaway Robinson Crusoe and ITV star Robson Green pretty much end there, it seems.
