However... An article appeared in late 2007, entitled, which created an entirely different impression: How Bear Grylls the Born Survivor roughed it - in hotels

Reminds readers of how he has been described Assumes that until now, readers thought he was really ‘roughing’ it After reminding us of our previous opinion of Bear, it only emphasises his deception further. Slightly sarcastic
