Hunted first aired in the UK back in February 2014, and has only recently been aired on HBO in the US.

This year, Cher refused to perform at the Sochi Winter Olympics in Russia. Speaking of her refusal she said, “I immediately said no. I want to know why all of this gay hate just exploded over there. He said the Russian people don’t feel the way the government does.”

Hunted is available to watch on 4oD.
