Jonathan Ross Hosts Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing on Channel 4

Could you survive being handcuffed to a stranger 24/7? In a brand-new social experiment for Channel 4, Jonathan Ross challenges 18 brave Brits to stay together, as they compete to win £100,000. The bold new series takes eight pairs of strangers with completely opposed opinions, beliefs, lifestyles, and bad habits, and handcuffs them together 24/7 in the ultimate test of survival.

The couples will be handcuffed together through thick and thin, as they navigate eating, dressing and even sleeping just inches apart. Shackled around the clock, the pairs will be sent on a road trip across our beautiful nation, in the hope they find common ground along the way. If a pair can last longest chained together, they’ll be in the running for a £100,000 jackpot – but if it proves too much and they demand to be unchained, their shot at the jackpot is gone. Drawn from across the UK, the couples will represent the wide range of views and opinions found in modern Britain.

Will the chance to win a huge cash prize drive them to stay together whatever, or will their massive differences lead them to quit? This timely experiment will be overseen by mastermind Jonathan Ross, who’ll pair up the couples and guide them on their path to reconciliation. The series marks the host’s return to Channel 4, having started his career presenting The Last Resort on the Channel in 1987.

Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing launches on Channel 4 on Monday 2nd March at 9:00 pm. Two weekly episodes will air on Mondays and Tuesdays for six episodes.
