Traitors winner Harry Clark, media personality Rebecca Loos, and former Premier League footballer Troy Deeney are among the famous faces set to be pushed to their limits in the new series of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.

The Channel 4 reality spin-off, scheduled for 2025, will see 14 celebrities endure gruelling special forces training in an attempt to make it through SAS selection.

The line-up also includes professional boxer Conor Benn, S Club star Hannah Spearritt, and former Love Island contestant Tasha Ghouri, who marks a milestone as the show’s first celebrity deaf recruit.

Dancer Louie Spence and former X Factor contestant Lucy Spraggan are also confirmed to face the intense challenge.

Tasha Ghouri, who was born deaf, said: “I’m very excited to actually take on the course and just go for it, push myself and really challenge myself.

“I also want to show people that having a disability makes you no less able – we can also push ourselves, and do crazy challenges if we put our mind to it.”

Former Watford player Deeney also joins the line-up and said: “I’m at a crossroads in my life, so I’m hoping the course can highlight the good and bad in me and hopefully we’ll see at the end, that the good outweighs the bad.

“I’m sure the DS (directing staff) will get me irritated very quickly, but they will also know how to nurture and to reshape and probably help me along the way.”

Deeney will be joined by former footballer and broadcaster Adebayo “The Beast” Akinfenwa, along with a few Love Island veterans including Chloe Burrows (series seven) Adam Collard (series four and eight) and Ghouri (series eight).

Media personality Loos, who is best known for being Sir David Beckham’s former assistant and for claiming that he had an affair with her, will also join the special forces training along with Michaella McCollum, who made headlines in 2013 after being imprisoned in Peru for drug smuggling charges, now known as one of the “Peru Two”.

The line-up is completed with musician Lady Leshurr and drag artist and DJ Bimini, who said: “People in the UK love to debate gender like it’s a concept, not a lived experience. It gets reduced to headlines and toilet talk. I’m doing this to remind them that behind every opinion is a human being.

“The course, the SAS and the Army have got a very masculine stereotype and I’ve got both elements of masculine and feminine and that’s my superpower. Vulnerable, raw, and stronger than ever.”

The celebrities will be taken to Wales where they will immerse themselves in special forces training, led by chief instructor Billy Billingham and his team of directing staff (DS), which includes Jason Fox or “Foxy”, Rudy Reyes and Chris Oliver.

Billingham said: “This course is not an attendance course, the bar is set high and will not waiver.

“Every recruit is a volunteer who chose to step into our arena. Although many will start, very few will finish and even less will pass. This is not for the weak minded or faint hearted.”

Airing across eight one-hour episodes, the seventh series of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins will be available to watch on Channel 4 every Sunday and Monday from 9pm starting on August 3.
