Success of the original series
Celebrity Handcuffed is confirmed off the back of the success of the first series of the civilian version, Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing, which has also been recommissioned for a second series.
The first series was a huge streaming success, with over 2 million views of episode one alone. It performed particularly well with 16-34s, with episode one reaching a young share of 24.3%. When compared to the slot average, this was up 140%.
What to expect from the show
The show will see pairs of celebrities with completely opposed opinions, beliefs, lifestyles, and bad habits, handcuffed together 24/7 in the ultimate test of survival.
Tim Hancock, Channel 4 Commissioning Editor, said: “Celebrity Handcuffed takes a format audiences couldn’t stop talking about and supercharges it with some truly unexpected pairings.
“Just like the civilian series, the celebrity version will be laugh-out-loud funny, gloriously awkward and full of surprises, and will capture something bigger about modern Britain: even when we seem to disagree on almost everything, we might have more in common than we think.”
Amy Willetts, Series Producer, 72 Films said: “Bringing together celebrities from wildly different worlds, Celebrity Handcuffed asks what happens when big egos collide.
“At its heart, it's a celebration of friendship and tolerance, giving viewers a fresh look and understanding of the famous faces they thought they knew. But for those who crack under the pressure, expect fireworks.”
