Story summary

Channel 4 has confirmed a new celebrity reality show called Celebrity Handcuffed, set to air later this year. The show will feature five pairs of famous individuals handcuffed together for 24 hours, facing various challenges and living under pressure. Among the participants are Katie Price, a former glamour model, and Suella Braverman, a Reform politician. Other notable pairings include Neil Ruddock with drag artist Bimini, Kerry Katona with Made in Chelsea star Mark-Francis Vandelli, Georgia Harrison with socialite Lady Victoria Hervey, and celebrity DJ Fat Tony with aristocrat Princess Olga Romanov. The premise of the show is to bring together people from vastly different backgrounds to highlight their contrasting opinions and lifestyles while they navigate daily tasks as a handcuffed duo. This format mirrors Channel 4’s successful civilian version Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing, which has already been recommissioned for a second series due to its popularity.

🔮 Channel 4 has confirmed a brand-new celebrity reality show which will see Katie Price and Suella Braverman handcuffed together.
🔮 And you might think, ‘It’s only a few pounds; what difference does it really make?’
🔮 Hammond also apologised to viewers for leaving the programme, saying she would not normally walk away from a live TV show.
🔮 The footage was reportedly taken at around 7pm, with fans quickly speculating that the mysterious production could be The Batman: Part II, starring Robert Pattinson.
🔮 This is what you need to do if you still want to go More than 200,000 people are expected to attend the five-day festival when it returns to Worthy Farm in Somerset from Wednesday, June 23 to Sunday, June 27, 2027. Getting a ticket is notoriously difficult, with huge numbers of hopeful festivalgoers attempting to secure a place at the event each year.
🔮 First live show leaderboard in full * Graeme Hall and Lauren Oakley – 31 * Delta Goodrem and Kai Widdrington – 30 * Cach Mercer and Maddie Ingoldsby – 29 * Lacey Turner and Vito Coppola – 28 * Tabby Stoecker and Mark Karmalita – 28 * Bethany Antonia and Nancy Xu – 27 * Shaun Wright-Phillips and Alexis Warr – 25 * Dame Sarah Storey and Julian Caillon – 24 * John Nellis and Katya Jones – 23 * Dani Dyer and Nikita Kuzmin - 23 * Jamie Winstone and Carlos Gu - 21 * Will Best and Doane Buswell – 19 * Lawrence Robb and Jowita Przystal – 19 * Chris Appleton and Amy Dowden – 17 * Melanie Walters and Aljaz Skorjanec – 15 Elsewhere, social media star John Nellis, who topped the leaderboard in week one, slipped down the rankings after scoring 23 points for his Couple's Choice routine with Katya Jones.
🔮 Ross was selected because the Traitors believed the way he behaved during the mission would “draw suspicion on” him.
🔮 Third traitor revealed as major celeb is ‘murdered’ in huge twist The pair had to decide who would be murdered and who could potentially be recruited to join them in the castle.
🔮 The first episode ended without a murder or banishment, with the celebrities instead facing a series of challenges as they began to work out who they could trust. Julie Hesmondhalgh and Joe Lycett were also shielded from the first murder.
🔮 This series has already switched things up, with just two Traitors chosen at the beginning of the game rather than the usual three. Grant was one of them, alongside presenter Maya Jama.
