Finding Michael
Made in Chelsea star Spencer Matthews was just 10 when he lost his older brother Michael. An experienced climber who had already scaled the Swiss Alps, the Pyrenees and Kilimanjaro, Michael became the youngest Briton to summit Mount Everest in May 1999.
Hours later, upon his descent, the 22-year-old disappeared into blinding snow, and his body has never been found. More than 20 years later, and with the help of survivalist Bear Grylls, Spencer heads to Nepal with a search team led by a record-breaking mountaineer in a bid to recover Matthew’s body from Everest’s notorious ‘Death Zone’.
