Jackson Warne join SAS: Who Dares Wins

Seven's action reality contest is due to film soon in New Zealand.

Jackson Warne, the 20 year old son of Shane Warne, is the first participant to be named in Seven’s upcoming SAS: Who Dares Wins.

Also set to compete are former ironwoman Candice Warner, former Australian cricketer Mitchell Johnson, Olympian Jana Pittman and swimmer Shayna Jack.

The Screentime series, based on the UK action contest, is due to film soon in New Zealand.

Programming boss Angus Ross recently told TV Tonight the show was “tougher than Bear Grylls”

“This show really is the toughest test and I think it puts the ‘real’ back into Reality. It’s more an ob doc, following celebrities getting put through the course you have to go through, to get into the Special Forces,” he said.

It is expected in Q4.

Cut off from the outside world at a secret base in a foreign country, they will eat, sleep and train together in spectacular and punishing terrain with no allowances made for their celebrity status. As they progress through the gruelling course, they’ll be forced to confront surprising truths about themselves to discover their real character. Some will reach breaking point and withdraw. Which recruits will tough it out to the end? Fourteen brave Aussie celebrities are about to embark on the toughest test of their lives – attempting to overcome the intensive SAS selection process. Over two weeks, an elite group of ex-Special Forces soldiers, led by Chief Instructor Ant Middleton, will put these stars through an extraordinary series of physical and psychological tests, each from the real SAS selection process.

  1. There have been numerous ‘ob docs’ on the process of joining elite units over the years-seeing so called ‘celebs’ playing at it is disrespectful at a time of actual war.

  2. But Jackson Warne isn’t a ‘celebrity’?

    Also, very disappointed that Shayna Jack is on the show, considering what she did to herself last year.

    Anywho, looking forward to this! Should be very good!
