Channel 4 confirms bizarre reality show where Katie Price and Suella Braverman will be handcuffed

Channel 4 has confirmed a brand-new celebrity reality show which will see Katie Price and Suella Braverman handcuffed together.

The unlikely duo are among five pairs of famous faces who will be forced to live and survive together 24/7 for Celebrity Handcuffed.

The new series is based on Channel 4’s civilian show Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing, which has already been recommissioned for a second series following its success.

Alongside glamour model Price and Reform politician Braverman, the celebrity line-up features former footballer Neil Ruddock and drag star Bimini.

Former Atomic Kitten singer Kerry Katona has been paired with Made in Chelsea star Mark-Francis Vandelli, while reality star Georgia Harrison will be handcuffed to socialite Lady Victoria Hervey.

The final pairing sees celebrity DJ Fat Tony joined by aristocrat Princess Olga Romanov.

The format will see each pair, who come from very different backgrounds, opinions and lifestyles, remain handcuffed to one another around the clock.

They will be put through a series of challenges as they attempt to survive the experience, with the show promising plenty of clashes as the celebrities are pushed out of their comfort zones.

The series follows the success of the first civilian run of Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing, which attracted more than two million views for its opening episode.

The first series also proved popular with younger viewers, with its first episode recording a 24.3% share among 16 to 34-year-olds, 140% above the slot average.

Channel 4 said Celebrity Handcuffed will explore what happens when people with “completely opposed opinions, beliefs, lifestyles, and bad habits” are forced to spend every waking moment together.

The show has already attracted praise from Liam Gallagher, who described the original format as the “best thing since Pot Noodles”.

Jonathan Ross, who appeared in the civilian series, said he was looking forward to seeing how the celebrity version unfolds.

He said: “I've done my fair share of celebrity shows, but nothing quite like this. It's chaotic, it's hilarious, and I'm so excited for viewers to see what happens when you handcuff a group of famous faces together and put them under pressure.”

Channel 4 commissioning editor Tim Hancock said the celebrity version would take the original format and “supercharge” it with its unexpected pairings.

“Just like the civilian series, the celebrity version will be laugh-out-loud funny, gloriously awkward and full of surprises,” he said.

Celebrity Handcuffed will consist of four one-hour episodes and is due to air on Channel 4 in 2027.
