The 15th series of Ben Fogle: New Lives in the Wild is currently in full swing, with episode four taking the broadcaster to a tiny island in the Scottish Hebrides.<\/p>\n

The popular programme introduces Fogle to people who have \u201cgiven up on the rat race\u201d, choosing alternative ways to live. This time round he\u2019ll be meeting ex-social care worker Philip, who has embraced community living on the island.<\/p>\n

Ahead of the episode\u2019s release tonight, RadioTimes.com<\/a> has got our hands on two exclusive preview clips, teasing what awaits Fogle in the community, from being charged for not shutting a gate to a druid ceremony.<\/p>

In the first clip, Fogle arrives in the community, where he finds a white gate leading to a small row of country houses. The gate sports a notice threatening to charge 40 shillings if it isn\u2019t closed properly.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re also introduced to Fogle\u2019s host Philip, who left his career as a social worker behind in favour of life in the island\u2019s small community, which has been active since the 1970s.<\/p>\n

\u201cAccepting gifts helps the islanders generate a small income, which goes towards funding amenities,\u201d Fogle tells us in the following preview:<\/p>\n

Ben Fogle: New Lives in the Wild continues tonight at 8pm on Channel 5. Looking for something else to watch? Check out our TV Guide<\/a> or visit our dedicated Entertainment<\/a> hub for the latest news.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
