Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins

Episode 1

Behind Enemy Lines

Fourteen British and Australian celebrities face the most punishing challenge of their lives. In the brutal heat of North Africa, these famous faces are embarking on a savage, condensed version of SAS selection that even they won't be able to charm, spin or tweet their way out of. As the celebrities are stripped of their identities, luxuries and excuses, the brutal physical and mental course - led by Directing Staff Billy Bilingham, Foxy, Rudy Reyes and Chris Oliver - will lay them bare. They'll have no PR teams, filters or followers to rescue them. Instead, they'll face sweat, physical endurance, sand, tears and the truth they've been avoiding. The UK and Aussie recruits are put under extreme pressure as every mistake is punished, every crack exploited, every weakness dragged into the open. Bonds snap, egos shatter, and recruits are pushed so far past their limits they forget they ever had any. And when the dust settles, one question remains: will any of these celebrities make it to the end and impress the DS enough to pass the course? The celebrities begin by facing an underwater emergency escape task before taking on a bout of hand-to-hand combat.
