Battle of The Islands (2009)
The seventh series ran from 1 February to 10 May 2009 as Shipwrecked: Battle of the Islands 2009. The format changed significantly however to that of past series, in that instead of one tribe winning the £70,000 prize, one person would win the entire sum. There was a 'back to basics' theme to the series. Every week two new arrivals spent several days with each island (Shark Island and Tiger Island). During their stay they were appointed 'tribal leaders' and invented island rules. At the end of the week a 'beach party' was hosted where the new arrivals must choose to make either a joint or separate decision on which island they wish to stay on for the remainder of the competition. The Sharks won overall and the money went to Greg.
The series was the fourth to be narrated by actor and voice-over artist Craig Kelly.

Famous quotes containing the words battle and/or islands:
“I remember the scenes of battle in which we stood together. I remember especially that broad and deep grave at the foot of the Resaca hill where we left those gallant comrades who fell in that desperate charge. I remember, through it all, the gallantry, devotion and steadfastness, the high-set patriotism you always exhibited.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
“The problem of the twentieth century is the problem of the color-line—the relation of the darker to the lighter races of men in Asia and Africa, in America and the islands of the sea. It was a phase of this problem that caused the Civil War.”
—W.E.B. (William Edward Burghardt)
