Anyone see this new programme thats just been on the Beeb.

Absolutely fantastic!!! It's a sort of Takeshi's Castle It's a knockout mix but is brutally hard and dangerous!

Great viewing IMO

It's filmed in Argentina and you get a week out there whilst filming.

I know someone who was on the first series.  She went for an interview.  I say interview, I don't think there's that much of a selection process.

I reckon two categories.

Are you fit, and people will want to look at you, potentially wet and covered in mud ?

Are you clearly unfit, and people will want to laugh at you, potentially wet and covered in mud ?

Probably second category.  She only went on it because she was told Richard Hammond was presenting it.

She never mentioned it, but I think she was pretty devastated that Richard records his bit afterwards from the UK.
