Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins Series 3 Press Pack

TX: Sundays at 9pm on Channel 4

6 x 1 hour episodes

Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins has returned to Channel 4 on Sundays at 9pm, with twelve new well-known faces who think they have what it takes to pass SAS Selection. Each celebrity will abandon their glamourous lifestyles and head into the wilds of the Scottish Hebrides in the remote island of Raasay, on one of the toughest selection courses yet. The new celebrity recruits are writer and TV presenter, Ulrika Jonsson, TV presenters, Saira Khan and Ore Oduba; TV personalities, Kerry Katona, Vicky Pattison and Jake Quickenden; singer, actress and West End leading lady, Alexandra Burke; Olympic Gold medallist James Cracknell; former Premiership Footballer, Kieron Dyer; Paralympic Athlete, Aled Davies; TV star and musician, Wes Nelson and BMX and track world champion, Shanaze Reade.

Putting them through this condensed SAS selection course is the elite team of ex-special forces soldiers - Chief Instructor, Ant Middleton and his team of Directing Staff (DS), Foxy, Billy, Melvyn and Staz. The DS don’t care how famous the recruits are, how many social media followers they have or what they have done before this. As soon as they enter the selection process, their celebrity status and luxuries will be stripped away.

Over eight days, the twelve celebrities will be put through a series of gruelling tasks and interrogations that will test them both physically and mentally.  Each will confront surprising truths about themselves, to discover their true self. Not everyone will have what it takes to make it to the end of this unique version of SAS selection.

No allowances or exceptions will be made for this group of celebrities.  DS, Foxy said: “Sometimes the world tests us in ways that we could never have imagined.  It’s only then that you have to forget your ego, face your demons and dig deep.”  Billy added, “selection is the ultimate level.  It’ll bring everyone to their knees.”

Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins is a Minnow Films production for Channel 4. The Executive Producers are Benjamin Leigh, Sophie Leonard and Grace Reynolds, the Series Producer is Louise Bartmann and Channel 4 Commissioner for Specialist Factual is Jonah Weston.
