The 'Secret' is out about my new Channel 5 programme.
It’s all been very hush-hush and I couldn’t even tell my closest friends what it is all about.
Channel 5 took the wraps off the pre-publicity campaign today and I can now reveal the show is going to be called ‘Secret Interview’.
Filming was carried out earlier this year we have been busy shooting at different locations in West Wales and beyond.
The show follows my other TV appearances on Channel Four’s Secret Millionaire and Sky’s The Devil’s Dinner Party.
The Secret Interview will be unlike anything I have done previously.
The show will put eight unknowing people through an interview process they will never forget.
The unwitting candidates believe they are filming a documentary about their workplace.
In fact, they are about to have an interview for the job of a lifetime without even knowing it’s happening.
Each of them will be tested to their limits by a team of undercover actors intent on causing utter chaos.
Meanwhile, their prospective new boss watches everything.
Other stars of the Secret Interview will be Michelin starred chef Jason Atherton, the editor of women’s magazine Glamour Jo Elvin and hair stylist to the stars Nicky Clarke.
For the candidates, it’s going to be the working week of their lives and every move they make could take them a step closer to a job with the Secret Interviewers that could transform their world.
Watch out for episode two, when a pair of hopeful estate agents come up against bogus buyers and tenants from hell whilst having to remain calm and collected.
Co-produced by Twofour and GroupM Entertainment, Secret Interview will air on Channel 5 later this month.
Other information:
The series is made up of 4 x 60 minute episodes that will air from late August.
