Escape from Scorpion Island is a BAFTA-nominated BBC children's TV adventure game show in which contestants compete to "escape from an exotic island". Series 4 was produced by Foundation/Freehand for CBBC and the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

It first aired on CBBC on 9 August 2010 on Mondays to Thursdays, and BBC 2 on the weekends in the U.K., and in Australia it first aired on 13 October 2010 to 19 November 2010 and ran from Monday to Friday on ABC3. Myleene Klass and Johny Pitts replaced JK and Joel as hosts for this series.
Legend has it, centuries ago on Scorpion Island, five adventurers with special skills tried to take on the island; Bravery, Speed, Strength, Balance and Stamina. The island didn't like this and mischievously turned them all into stone scorpions. 10 adventurers have come to the island, with two people representing each power and split into two teams: Sting and Claw. The teams must battle each other in challenges to win Sands of Times' and Totem Power Pieces for the final challenge.
There were 10 adventurers on the island; 6 from the UK, and 4 from Australia. The Australian contestants are Angus, Harriet, Janardan and Maddy.
Team Claw (Yellow) (Creek Camp) Orange Helmets; 3 Sands of Time; 7 Totem Pieces
Team Sting (Red) (Tree Camp) Black Helmets; 8 Sands of Time; 3 Totem Pieces
Note: All episodes are based the 30 minute version, all days refer to the 60 minute version.
In the Arena of the Powers, Angus and Rachael were rewarded the power of stamina for competing in all of the Battle for the Powers challenges. They were also made the first Power Captains for their teams. They then had to draw a coloured stone from a bag to find out what teams they would be captaining. Angus got the red stone, making him in Sting, and Rachael got the yellow stone, making her in Claw. The Dial of Destiny was then spun to find out who would get the choice of groups for their team. The spinner landed on red, Sting's colour, so Angus chose the group with Bronte, Maddy, Michael and Janardan.
