Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins is thrown into chaos as Rebecca Loos gives up on her very first challenge before Louie Spence and Hannah Spearritt QUIT just 30 minutes into opening episode
Series seven of the beloved Channel 4 show kicked off on Sunday night as 14 famous faces were put through their paces.
Chief instructor Billy Billingham and his team Jason Fox, Rudy Reyes and Chris Oliver also returned to our screens to put the celebrities through it.
Celebrities taking part include former glamour model Rebecca Loos, Tasha Ghouri, Harry Clark, Michaella McCollum, Lucy Spraggan and Adam Collard.
For their first extraction challenge, the celebrities were forced to throw themselves into freezing cold water before swimming a checkpoint.
They had an allocated time to reach that point, where they'd be collected by a nearby boat.
S Club 7 star Hannah Spearritt handed in her badge when it came to the Hostage Rescue mission before even making an attempt
However, for model Rebecca Loos, the first challenge already proved too much for her as she gave up midway through.
Rebecca, 48, could be seen swimming towards the checkpoint before stopping dead in the water, remaining to float as the DS' watched on.
Meanwhile, S Club 7 star Hannah Spearritt handed in her badge when it came to the Hostage Rescue mission.
As she saw what was ahead of her, Hannah could be heard saying 'I'm sorry'.
She continued: 'I'm done. I'm sorry. I'm done. I've reached a point.'
It came just 30 minutes into the new series, where Hannah had said in her introductory VT how 'wouldn't give up so easily'.
She told the camera: 'I'm pretty determined. I wouldn't say I give up easily. But whether I'll get to the end or not, I don't think I'd go on the first day as I wouldn't forgive myself.'
In a major shock for viewers, Louie Spence also threw in the towel before the end of the first episode.
He had failed the Hostage Rescue challenge after being partnered with Love Island's Chloe Burrows.
After the challenge, he declared: 'I want to do an immediate withdrawal.'
Explaining why he was suddenly quitting the show, Louie added: 'I don't have the conviction. I'm not dedicated enough.'
Last year, John Barrowman quit SAS after just 32 minutes into filming.
He dubbed the 'worst recruit' in the show's history after he told Directing Staff 'I'm done' adding: 'I just... it's not for me, I know who I am and what I'm about, it's not for me' following his arrival on set.
Despite his abrupt exit, Daily Mail revealed how John received a whopping £30,000 appearance fee by bosses.
Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins continues on Monday night at 9pm on Channel 4.

Awkward moment Love Islander's smile drops after Maya Jama makes on air joke about her
A LOVE Island star's smile dropped following Maya Jama's on-air joke about her - in an awkward moment. Many former Islanders from this year's series made return appearances for the ITV2 show's final. 4 4 4 This included Malisha Jordan, who was eliminated early on this summer. During her brief time in the villa, she clashed with Meg over getting to know Dejon. Maya caught up with axed stars including Meg and Dejon, who were dumped right before the final. When the topic of a group trip came up, the host asked: "Why didn't I get an invite? Where are we going?" Meg replied: "You can come", before turning around and asking: "Where are we going, Malisha?" At this point, Maya then said: "Oh my God, I won't be attending." Malisha had been smiling, although this dropped after the presenter's quip. The bombshell arrived on Day 5, alongside Yasmin Pettet and Emily Moran. Unfortunately, Malisha - along with Toni - found themselves at risk of being dumped on Day 8. It meant that new bombshell Harrison had the decision of who would stay. He dated both girls, but chose Toni, meaning Malisha was therefore dumped as a result. Following her exit, the teaching assistant took savage digs at her co-stars when appearing on spin-off Aftersun. During a spicy segment, Malisha was asked by an audience member to give one-word verdicts on her fellow Islanders. When it came to Shea, she didn't mince words, saying chatting to him was like 'talking to a brick wall.' Love Island winners - where they are now EVERY year Love Island opens its doors to more sexy Islanders who are hoping for a holiday romance that could turn into more. Here we take you through all of the Love Island winners so far and what their relationship statuses are now: 2025 - The summer series of Love Island saw Toni Laites and Cach Mercer win the ITV2 reality show. STATUS: Still together. 2025 - The second series of All Stars saw Gabby Allen and Case O'Gorman scoop the crown. STATUS: Broken up. 2024 - The summer Love Island saw Mimii Ngulube and Josh Oyinsan were crowned the winners. STATUS: Broken up. 2024 - The first ever All stars spin off show was won by Molly Smith and Tom Clare. STATUS: Still together. 2023 - Jess Harding and Sammy Root took home the 50k, and won the summer 2023 Love Island. STATUS: Broken up. 2023 - The first series of 2023 saw Sanam Harrinanan and Kai Fagan crowned Love Island winners in South Africa. STATUS: Still together. 2022 - Davide Sanclimenti and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu's time in the villa was anything but a smooth ride, but they managed to win the public's hearts - and the ITV2 reality show. STATUS: Broken up. 2021 - Liam Reardon and Millie Court were announced winners of Love Island 2021. STATUS: Still together. 2020 - The first ever winter Love Island saw Paige Turley and Finn Tapp crowned winners after falling in love on the show. STATUS: Broken up. 2019 - Series 5 saw Tommy Fury and Molly-Mae Hague runners up to winners Greg O'Shea and Amber Gill, who met in the last few days of the series. STATUS: Broken up. 2018 - It wasn't surprising fan favourites Jack Fincham and Dani Dyer won the show, as they were strong throughout. But sadly things didn't last. STATUS: Broken up. 2017 - Kem Cetinay and Amber Davies had lots of ups and downs in the villa but went on to win. STATUS: Broken up. 2016 - Nathan Massey and Cara De La Hoyde were together from the start of the series, and since they won the show they've had two kids and are married. STATUS: Still together. 2015 - Despite poor Jess Hayes being Max Morley's second choice on the show, they did win - but they didn't last as a couple. STATUS: Broken up. Meanwhile, Malisha said her and Meg's clashing personalities were 'too similar". She also claimed Meg 'went too far' — and said they'd 'never be friends' on the outside. While things didn't quite work out with Dejon in the villa, Malisha left the door open for a post-show spark, cheekily saying they had 'unfinished business'. 4

Mark Labbett feared he would 'die a bachelor' before finding fame on The Chase and then marrying his second cousin Katie
Mark Labbett feared he would 'die a bachelor' because women were not interested in him before he found fame on The Chase. The 59-year-old TV personality was a single man 'for over 20 years' before he joined the ITV quiz show as The Beast in 2009, and then he went on to be in a several serious relationships. This included his second cousin Katie Labbett, 32, who he met on Facebook in 2010, began to date in 2012 and then married in 2014. They welcomed their seven-year-old son Lawrence in 2018, but Katie and Mark split in 2020. Following The Beast's separation from Katie, Mark dated TV presenter Hayley Palmer, 44, in 2023. However, in May 2024, he dumped Hayley days after their first dating anniversary in a 'three-minute' phone call. Now, Mark is taking part in the E4 dating show Celebs Go Dating. He hopes to find his perfect match, with the help of the programme's dating agents, Paul Carrick Brunson, 50, Anna Williamson, 44, and Dr. Tara Suwinyattichaiporn, 36. Mark exclusively told BANG Showbiz at the Celebs Go Dating launch party event at The Broadcaster gastropub in White City, West London, on July 24: 'It's getting to the point now with the joy of social media, a photo of me with a woman suddenly it's a new date. 'With this girl, I said, 'Sorry about this, I did warn you if you put up that photo.' 'And I tend to think, 'Where was all this speculation 20, 25 years ago?' 'I was a single man for over 20 years. I genuinely thought at one point before The Chase came along, 'Am I going to die a bachelor?' 'Suddenly, I'm in a relationship, which is why this has been good because you listen to experts, so finding out advice from them.' In 2020, Katie - who had been dating senior design engineer Scott Bate for 18 months at the time - and Mark split because their attempts at an open marriage failed. The Beast also blamed other factors, including their 27-year age gap, the Covid-19 lockdown and his own mental health, for their eventual split. In 2024, Hayley and Mark separated - with Hayley claiming at the time he dumped her because he 'didn't want to divorce his ex-wife', but Mark later told The Sun newspaper their separation was because he 'got old'. However, Mark - who had a 15-year age gap with Hayley - insisted to BANG Showbiz he does not have a 'bad word' to say about Katie or Hayley. Asked if he thinks it is now better to share a similar age with someone, as opposed to having a big age gap like he did with Katie and Hayley, Mark said: 'What I would say is age is really important to some people and completely unimportant to others. 'And, ultimately, I think it's down to the individual relationship. 'I've dated women who are older than me, and I've got no problems with it.' Celebs Go Dating 2025 starts on Monday, August 11, at 9pm on E4.

British Grammy winner reveals drug use was so serious she now suffers with speech issues and was banned from driving
CLEAN BANDIT's Grace Chatto has revealed the emotional story behind their new tune Believe. The cellist, who is one third of the electronic band, told for the first time that a battle with drugs as a youngster left her with speech problems and a raft of other issues. 12 She said in a TikTok post: 'I speak so slowly because I took too many drugs when I was a teenager.' Grace detailed other struggles, admitting: 'I can't get car insurance because I had a driving ban.' But the musician, whose band has topped the charts with hits such as Rather Be, Rockabye and Symphony, said their latest tune is poignant because it reminds her to count her blessings every morning. Alongside the caption 'I believe in us' to reference the track featuring South African singer Lloyiso, she added: 'But I believe in us. Won a Grammy, gratitude for all that I have, I am strong, I'm nice, I am honest.' Her honesty has gone down a storm with fans, with more than 180,000 liking the post. She's come a long way – and things are only going up. It's Hill country BECKY HILL has a quieter life these days. She posed in the countryside with fiancé Charlie Gardner after snapping up a rural pad to settle down in. 12 In a post on Instagram, she wrote: 'I decided to have a quieter year at work so I could write album three, get married and buy a house fit for the next chapter of my life. 'I've been lucky enough to be able to retire both of my parents, buy them a house and got my big brother a house too. 'So it was our turn. Worked my whole life to protect my family and now I have a new home fit for our own. Not yet though, I got a new album to finish.' Clean Bandit perform at Royal Variety Concert 2018 ALL EYES ON KT WITH 3 NEW SONGS FOR DEBUT RE-ISSUE KT TUNSTALL is preparing to drop three new songs on the 20th anniversary re-issue of her debut album Eye To The Telescope. The exclusive tunes, which include the never-before-released title track, will be on the new version of the record, when it comes out on October 31. KT told me: 'The title for my first album was inspired by the times when my physicist dad – who had a spare set of keys for the Observatory at St Andrews University – would randomly get us up in the middle of the night and bundle us into the car in our pyjamas to go and look through the huge telescope to see the night sky. The moon, Saturn, Halley's Comet all completely blew my mind as a kid. 'When I decided to call the album Eye To The Telescope, I thought I'd have a go at writing a title track. 'What I began writing was so delicate, and I felt that a title track of a first album surely had to be a banger, so I abandoned it. My label BMG encouraged me to finish the song for this special re-release, and it's been such a thrill to complete something over 20 years in the making.' Lizzo weighs in on trolls LIZZO has again hit back at trolls who attacked her for losing weight. The Juice singer is the cover star of Women's Health UK, and said, rightly, she wouldn't be bullied by the sad-acts targeting her from anonymous social media accounts. 12 12 In her interview with the September issue of the mag, which is out now, Lizzo said: 'It's radical to f*** with yourself. 'I had to fight for that [to love myself]. And now I'm fighting again. 'It's OK to gain weight after you've [lost] weight, because what you're not going to do is shame me if my body changes again and I get bigger.' Hear, hear, Lizzo. TINDER RETRY FOR TODRICK HE is dazzling West End crowds as the star and director of Burlesque the Musical. But US actor Todrick Hall is hoping to find more than just a good review while in London. 12 He's trying to get a boyfriend, too! Instead of looking for a showbiz personality to mingle with his A-list pals such as Taylor Swift, he has signed up to dating app Tinder to find a normal bloke. A single pal of mine was swiping on the app and saw Todrick's profile, which features a photo of him with another of his famous friends, Nicole Scherzinger. On the page, which has been verified as his, he writes: 'I make videos, sing, dance and act. I love Beyonce, Wizard Of Oz and Disney. So basically, I'm not the most masc person on here. 'If you're into it, swipe right lol.' It's actually a return to the app for Todrick, who said in 2023: 'I keep getting kicked off of Tinder because people think it's a catfish. 'So when I get on there, I'm like 'you better swipe until you can't swipe no more because your time is limited, OK?'.' VIDEO director Joseph Kahn has risked the wrath of Taylor Swift. The camera wiz pulled the curtain back on Taylor's inner circle. 12 Joseph revealed he and Taylor secretly made a full video for her Reputation album track King Of My Heart back when the record came out in 2017. Joseph said: 'We shot this sort of very conceptual thing and then she decided Ready For It? was a better single.' He previously worked on Britney Spears' iconic Toxic video, and Taylor's Blank Space. Damon's Bec in the game BLUR frontman Damon Albarn was out walking his dog, joined by Gorillaz collaborator Rebecca Freckleton. They were spotted close to his London home. 12 Damon has been single since splitting from Suzi Winstanley after 25 years. There's good reason Damon and Rebecca are hanging out, after he told The Sun last month he is working on the next Gorillaz record due next year. Damon said: 'I've been incredibly busy making music – it's what I love to do – so I suppose I'm going to have to share some of it soon. I was doing an opera in Paris and starting on the new Gorillaz record. It's been crazy.'
