The popular BBC reality show Survivor is set to return for a second series on the BBC, according to reports.
After finishing its first reboot series last weekend (Saturday, December 16) the show hosted by Joel Dommett has put out a casting call for a potential second series.
Survivor concerns a group of people being marooned in an isolated location and having to fend for themselves.
A big part of the show is the contestants forming their own tribal societies and competing against each other in challenges.

It has proved to be a ratings success for the BBC, pulling in around three million viewers each week and beating out The Antiques Roadshow, according to The Mirror.
Survivor initially aired in the UK for two series in the early 2000s before being picked up by the BBC after going off air for almost two decades, the Radio Times shares.
Survivor second series casting call
If you fancy going on the second series of Survivor then you can apply on the website here, with the deadline being February 16.
Describing the show it says: "You’ll be split into tribes and will need to strategise and form alliances to protect yourself from being voted out of the game.
"You’ll compete against your rivals in epic challenges of endurance, stamina and mental agility for crucial rewards or game-saving immunity. At Tribal Council you’ll have to do whatever it takes to avoid your torch being snuffed out.
"One by one the players will be voted out until only one emerges as the Sole Survivor and wins a life-changing cash prize."
The website adds: "If a second series is confirmed, filming is intended to take place over approximately eight weeks in a tropical location overseas and those selected to take part may be required to be away from home for up to the entirety of that period of time (accommodation on location will be provided by the production) and will take part in a series of physical and mental challenges, sometimes in water."
It may be worth your while competing on the show as the eventual winner is given a £100,000 cash prize.
Describing the show, BBC's Director of Unscripted Kate Phillips said: "Survivor is a global television hit and to be able to bring one of TV’s most successful formats to audiences in the UK in a uniquely BBC way is a very exciting prospect indeed."
