Dumped is a British reality television programme which started on 2 September 2007 and aired nightly until 5 September 2007 on Channel 4.[1] It involved 11 contestants living for three weeks on a rubbish dump next to a landfill site near Croydon in South London. The contestants who "survived" the 21 days and used only what they found on the dump were awarded £20,000 to share equally between them. The working title of the programme was Eco-Challenge.[2] One contestant, Darren Lumsden, voluntarily left the programme on Day 3.[3] The series was promoted with a large publicity campaign, which included advertisements on websites and a concert by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.[4][5] The programme achieved a peak of 2.4 million viewers, although this was marginally less than the number of people watching other channels at the same time.[6] The programme was criticised because it was filmed on an artificial landfill and for its choice of "fame hungry" contestants.[7]
