Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins; Who Will Fail the Trust Exercise (Channel 4 Sun 11 September 2022)
Celebrity recruits are heading for the epic and merciless Jordanian desert. In a streamlined version of the special forces selection process, they will be put to the absolute limit by the DS, an elite group of former special forces operators from the UK and the USA.
The 14 celebrity recruits in this episode must first endure a brutal first stage before beginning a series of trust exercises. In the special forces, where hesitation results in the loss of life, trust is the most important factor. Before teaming up to reach the shore, recruits must jump out of a helicopter in pairs. All of the group members must endure a punishment beasting when some of the group members lose equipment and fail to keep their kit dry.
Next, they take the life of a teammate in their hands as one of them freefalls from a 150-foot cliff, being kept from crashing to the ground by their partner. Will reality TV star Ferne McCann and actor Jennifer Ellison be able to get past their self-doubt and issues with trust in order to finish this section of the course?
