Twelve celebrities will be undertaking a gruelling physical challenge to row the entire length of Britain for new adventure series Don’t Rock the Boat.
The five-part series will see two crews of six race from Cornwall all the way to the Scottish Isles, completing a series of on-shore challenges along the way to gain advantages over their opposition.
This intense challenge will see the celebrity crews tackle the formidable cliffs of the UK’s stunning coastline and the wild wind and waves at sea.
Taking to the boats will be British politician and author Tom Watson, Olympic gold medallist and sports presenter Denise Lewis OBE, and English supermodel and presenter Jodie Kidd.
Also confirmed among the crew are actor and DJ Craig Charles, singer-songwriter Fleur East, YouTuber Jack Weller and Love Island winner Jack Fincham.
Completing the line-up will be Coronation Street actress Lucy Fallon, Olympic and World Champion Victoria Pendleton CBE, The Chase’s Dark Destroyer Shaun Wallace, actor Adam Thomas and Kimberly Wyatt, a singer from The Pussycat Dolls.
Sporting legend Freddie Flintoff will take the helm alongside presenter AJ Odudu (The Voice), who will both host the show and guide the celebrities through each leg of the race.
Speaking on her excitement for the project, Aj Odudu commented: “This is going to be a great show, with an epic line-up. Such a brilliant mix of personalities and challenges which always makes for good telly."
Freddie Flintoff added: “It sounds like it's going to be a huge challenge for the twelve rowers so I'm pleased that I'll be spending most of my time on dry land...hopefully!”
ITV will air Don’t Rock The Boat later this year.
