Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins has seen its first major controversy of the series, with BBC favourite Harry Clark being removed from the show after cheating during a trust-based exercise. The 24-year-old, who rose to fame after winning The Traitors in 2024, was caught on CCTV failing to complete the required number of burpees.
During the episode, which aired on August 11, the directing staff—Mark 'Billy' Billingham, Jason 'Foxy' Fox, Rudy Reyes, and Chris Oliver—noticed Harry's lack of effort. Chief Instructor Billy expressed his frustration, stating that Harry's integrity and honesty 'stinks' and that his behaviour was 'unacceptable'. The instructors reviewed footage and confirmed that Harry had only performed 10 burpees instead of the required 20.
Confronted with the evidence, Harry was forced to admit his dishonesty to his teammates. The situation escalated when Billy ordered him to hand in his armband, effectively dismissing him from the programme. Harry was visibly upset as he was escorted away, later telling the camera that being withdrawn for being 'so crap' was the worst possible outcome.
Harry's departure marks a dramatic turning point in the series, as the remaining celebrities continue to face gruelling challenges under the watchful eyes of the instructors. The incident has sparked debate among viewers about the importance of integrity in the competition.
