Joel Dommett, Judi Love, Sam Thompson and GK Barry to front new ITV1 show Celebrity Sabotage

The hidden camera prank show is set to air this autumn.

ITV1 has today announced that Joel Dommett, Judi Love, Sam Thompson and GK Barry, are amongst the celebrities, ready to shock the nation in their new primetime hidden camera prank show, Celebrity Sabotage, which sees famous faces "unleashing acts of sabotage" on members of the public.

In each episode a fresh set of unsuspecting contestants will arrive, believing they're participating in a brand-new ITV show. These range from cooking challenges and relationship tests to business tasks and even murder mystery games. Little do they know that these shows are completely made up!

To make it even more convincing, these fake shows will have believable hosts, including familiar faces such as Clare Balding, Matt and Emma Willis, Monica Galetti, Jason Fox, Sara Davies and Rylan Clark. Everyone involved, from the celebrity saboteurs and the crew to the famous hosts, is in on the secret.

The celebrities are hidden away in their very own high-tech mission HQ, secretly watching the contestants’ every move. With props and disguises at their disposal, the question is: can the celebrities hold their nerve to successfully pull off some delightfully devious and convincingly cunning stunts, to win that big cash prize?

The stakes are high for our celebrity saboteurs. Every successfully executed sabotage mission will add more money to a secret prize pot. At the end of each episode, this pot will be revealed and shared equally among all the contestants - a complete surprise for them!

Each week the show's gang of celebrity saboteurs will be joined by a new guest saboteur, including Jill Scott MBE, Fay Ripley, Olivia Attwood, Jo Brand, Guz Khan and Harry Redknapp. Who will join in on all the action and cause even more mischief and mayhem.

On joining the serie, Joel Dommett said "This show is absolute madness. Turns out making a new fake reality TV show every week and secretly sabotaging the real contestants to win them money is REALLY FUN! It's honestly the most I've laughed in ages. Such a lovely bunch of fellow saboteurs too - Sam, GK, Judi and me made some mischief that needs to be seen to be believed."

To which Judi Love added "I haven't laughed this much in a while! From the first day of filming to the very last moment, it was an unforgettable experience. I loved working with my co-conspirators — Joel, GK and Sam. We got to dress up in some unique costumes, pull off hilarious pranks and all for a good cause — which is exactly my kind of fun."

Talking about taking part in Celebrity Sabotage, Sam Thompson said "Filming this show was like a military operation. Think mission impossible (and I'll let you in on a little secret, sometimes our missions felt impossible) but with more laughs. Working alongside Joel, Judi and GK was so much fun, and getting the chance to win money for the contestants more than made up for the times I had to dress up as a bush and stand in a field for hours!"

To which GK Barry added "This show is iconic. You get two shows for the price of one! It has everything you want in a new entertainment show - high stakes, high drama and LOTS of laughs. And we get to win members of the public money. What's not to love? I can't wait for everyone to see it."
