Surviving Paradise is a reality competition television series co-produced by All3Media’s Studio Lambert and Raw TV.[1]

The show features 12 players who believe they're about to live it up for a summer at a beautiful villa. Instead, the players are almost immediately banished to the wilderness below it, where they'll have to survive on next to nothing.[2] Stand-up comedian Jessimae Peluso hosts the competition.

The series had the working title "Jet Set".[3]

The series was officially announced in August 2022, with a new working title of "Edge of Paradise". The Evening Standard confirmed the "new survival reality series set in two contrasting worlds – a camp in the wilderness and a luxury villa".[4]
