Age: 37

Job: Footballer

Troy Matthew Deeney is an English footballer. He plays as a striker and he last held the role of player-manager of Forest Green Rovers.

"I'm at a crossroads in my life, so I'm hoping the course can highlight the good and bad in me and hopefully we'll see at the end, that the good outweighs the bad. I'm sure the DS will get me irritated very quickly but they will also know how to nurture and to reshape and probably help me along the way," Troy revealed before the show.

Job: Author

Michaella McCollum is one half of "The Peru Two". On 6th August 2013, Michaella McCollum and Melissa Reid were arrested on suspicion of drug smuggling at Jorge Chávez International Airport, Lima, Peru.

Speaking of the experience and joining the Channel 4 show, she said: "The level of resilience I learned from being in prison in Peru and knowing how important that mindset is, will definitely help get me through the course, so I'm going to need to use my mental strength to help me along the way."

She added: "In Peru, I was completely stripped back to the rawest version of myself…and I know in this course, it will have a similar effect. I will get to see the real me again and I want to challenge myself to see how capable I am. I don't know if I'm physically fit enough to complete the course but I have good mental strength.”

Age: 32

Job: Singer/songwriter

English singer/songwriter Lucy Spraggan is swapping the big stage for the SAS selection process.“I hope I have the mental grit to get to the end of the course. I have been through quite a lot in my life, and I've done a lot of work to navigate what that left behind, and I really hope that I can apply it to the course, and make it all the way to the end," she said ahead of the experience.

Age: 28

Job: Professional boxer

Former pro boxer Conor Benn is one of the celebs taking on the course. He has a current record of 23 wins and one loss, with 14 of those wins coming by knockout. He is the son of former two-division world champion boxer, Nigel Benn.

"Although boxing is hard, I feel like this is going to be a completely different challenge and I always want to challenge myself. I just want to see and experience the toughness and the grittiness you need to pass this course," he said.

Benn was instructed to end his journey on the show on medical grounds.

Age: 36

Job: Rapper

Lady Leshurr is hoping to become a better woman by joining the Channel 4 show, saying: "I think this course is not only going to make me become the best version of myself, but it's going to make me the strongest I've ever been. It's going to make me realise so much about myself that I've kept in. It's going to push, motivate and inspire me. It's really going to make or break me. But regardless, it's going to teach me a lesson about myself that I can definitely work on."

The rapper was forced to pull out of the show due a neck injury caused by a previous task.

Age: 46

Job: Media personality

Former model and media personality Rebecca Loos is swapping the glam life for the special selection process.

"I honestly don't know whether I am mentally strong enough but one of the reasons I want to do this course is because I want to find out whether I'm able to stick it through mentally. I think it's going to be really, really tough. This is by far the toughest thing I've ever done. But I want to do this course because it's a once in a lifetime opportunity to do an SAS training course. It's going to be really interesting to see how far I can go and how strong I'm able to keep myself," she said.

Loos quit the show in episode 5 over her fear of heights, which stopped her in taking part in the latest challenge.

Age: 23

Job: Reality TV star and former army engineer

The Traitors 2024 winner Harry is set to take on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins, saying: "Growing up, I'd watch people close to me be in the SAS, which always inspired me. This show was a different experience to what I had imagined but I always love a challenge and it proves you're always learning new things about yourself."

Prior to winning the BBC One game show, Harry served in the army as an engineer for six years, so he must be familiar with the selection process environment, which draws inspiration from the army while incorporating military-style training.

However, despite his military training Harry is the only contestant so far to have been culled from the show by the leaders. In episode four the leaders thought Harry had been lying to them and his fellow team members after he didn't the correct amount of burpees. After apologising to his team members, the SAS leaders told Harry he had to leave the process.

Job: Ex-footballer and broadcaster

Adebayo “The Beast” Akinfenwa is a former professional footballer. He played as a striker and was nicknamed "The Beast" for his huge physical prowess and goalscoring ability, in a career where he amassed more than 200 goals.

"I've asked myself time and time again - am I built for the Special Forces? One of the reasons why I'm doing this is to find out. I would like to think that, put me in most situations, most environments, I'll be able to put my best foot forward, get out of my comfort zone, hit my responsibilities and do what I need to do! I think that's what I want to get out of taking part on this course," he said.

After finding one of the challenges particularly difficult in episode four in which the recruits had to carry an inflatable boat to a beach, Adebayo quit the show.

Age: 26

Job: Model, dancer and reality TV star

Love Island's Tasha Ghouri is about to take on the ultimate challenge on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins. "I'm very excited to actually take on the course and just go for it, push myself and really challenge myself. But I also want to show people that having a disability makes you no less able - we can also push ourselves, and do crazy challenges if we put our mind to it," she said.

Tasha was born deaf and describes herself as a "proud cochlear implant user". She advocates for deaf people and likes to see her disability as her "superpower".

Tasha quit the show during the second episode, while taking part in the hike to the next task as she felt she wasn't mentally strong enough to take part.

Age: 28

Job: Reality TV star

Best known for appearing on the seventh series of Love Island, Chloe Burrows is one of the celebs taking part this year.

"On SAS: Who Dares Wins, everything is completely stripped back. You have absolutely nothing. And I want the course to kind of remind me of that, because I've got a bit lost in myself and the industry. I want to feel a little bit grounded. I want to get a sense of it. I want to push myself, and I want to get a sense of achievement. I want to feel proud of myself for whatever I put into it," she said ahead of her stint.

Chloe ended up leaving in episode two and has since revealed she quit due to exhaustion. She revealed on her Instagram Stories she had been in Ibiza for eight days, and then filmed the Sidemen's series before going straight into filming for Celebrity SAS, and it had started to take a toll on her.

"I was f***ing exhausted and wanted my own bed and a cuddle from my mum," she explained.

Job: Actor and singer

Many will recognise Hannah Spearritt as one of the original members of S Club 7. This year, Hannah joins the line-up for Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.

“I hope to take out of this experience, strength. I want to feel stronger again, mentally and physically, because there's always improvement there. There are always dips that happen along the way with motherhood or whatever but I think when you just experience different stuff, it changes you. I have no idea what to expect, but I do know it will be an experience and it's something that I will have for life," she said ahead of the show.

Hannah ended up quitting the show during the first episode before the second task begun, where she said: "I’m done, I’m sorry, I’ve reached a point."

Job: TV personality

Dancer and choreographer Louie Spence is one of the celebs in this year's line-up. "This course I hope can walk away feeling I've actually really achieved something here, that I've really pushed myself to the edge of my boundaries and put myself in a position which is beyond something I could have even imagined a year ago. This is a course that is really going to challenge me," he said ahead of the show.

"This is different to anything I’ve ever been part of before. There's no fluff, there's no glitter, there’s no getting myself out of a situation with a quick bit of wit. It's really refreshing for me to do something like this…and, hopefully come out a much better person, both physically and mentally.”

Louie also dropped out of the show in episode one, following the second task, citing that he didn't feel "dedicated" enough to carry on.

"I want to do an immediate withdrawal, I just don’t have the conviction, and I feel as though I’m not dedicated enough," he explained.
