Anders Lundin is back as host when this spring’s Robinson premieres on March 17.
The season will also be extra special as from the start there will be only women in team north and only men in team south.
– It starts with drama all at once. A very charged competition the first thing that happens and then we get two very, very different camps, says Anders Lundinprogram manager for Robinson.
22 men and women have landed on the islands of Caramoan in the eastern Philippines to settle for the coveted Robinson statuette and the prize of half a million kroner. This year, the season opens with a dispute pitting women against men, a division that both engages and challenges the participants. Tough competitions, dramatic advice and a tougher game than before are promised.

Alexander Strandberg appears again
Someone who appears again this year is Alexander Strandberg.
Alexander stepped into Robinson and made it big in 2022. The viewers absolutely loved him and many were very upset when he was voted out.

Today, together with his wife Karin, Alexander runs the company “Strandberg & Strandberg” whose purpose is to help people with addiction problems. For many years, he himself has lived with an active addiction, and has undergone several different treatments.
The big turning point came in February 2013.
– I went into the toilet in the morning to take my daily dose of heroin and it was too much. It ended with an overdose and I died in our bathroom, Alexander told in an interview with The Express. Mrs. Karin heard a bang and opened the bathroom door with a knife from the outside. Karin then had to perform CPR for over 20 minutes.

– He was completely blue in the face. I panicked and called 112 and both firefighters and police came and they couldn’t get him started, she said in the same interview.
At first the situation looked bleak. But after a few minutes, a fireman came into the room and told them that they finally managed to bring Alexander back to life.
