He continued: “When it first started, it was these hardcore individuals who thought they had what it took, so we put them through the mill, we didn’t care who they were, what background they came from.
“It was interesting to know about their background but, ultimately, they were there to test themselves, physically, psychologically, and emotionally.”
He explained that it used toi be the “instructors who controlled the process” but noe production takes on a lot of the format behind the scenes.
Jeremy agreed with him saying that the show no longer feels “organic.”

Ant continued: “‘It’s disappointing to see all the hard work go out the window and for it to be transformed into something completely different to what it was meant to be.”
“‘It’s disappointing to see all the hard work go out the window and for it to be transformed into something completely different to what it was meant to be.”
However he explained that “times move on” and he is not holding any grudges.
He said: “But, times move on, TV moves on, woke patrol comes in, political correctness has a big play with everything, and then the whole format changes.
“You know what, it’s probably good for this day and age right now, because people like to hear about sob stories and what goes on in people’s lives, good luck to them.”
