Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins has been hit by fakery claims, after viewers noticed an apparent editing fail in a section which was presented as a single take.
During Monday night’s episode of the Channel 4 show, the celebrity recruits, including the likes of Brendan Cole, Lauren Steadman and Tony Bellew, had to endure 25 minutes floating in the freezing cold Scottish waters.
The famous faces had to walk into the sea, link arms and float in the water as they were battered by the icy temperatures and waves.
But it appears that the celebrities were forced to do the challenge more than once, which was what was presented on the episode.

That’s because eagle-eyed viewers noticed that the positions of the celebrities switched up, despite the fact they had to link arms and not break the chain that they were floating in.
At one point, Paralympian Lauren Steadman and former heavyweight boxer Tony Bellew appeared to be shot floating in different positions.
This would therefore suggest that the shot had to be filmed multiple times, despite it being presented as one 25-minute shot.

And viewers noticed the blunder, taking to Twitter to call out the show’s editing.
One asked former Strictly Come Dancing pro Brendan Cole: “What’s with the editing on the sea challenge? One minute it shows you next to Lauren then it shows you next to Tony? How’s that work?”
Another wrote: “Celebrity SAS is such a set up. Some celebs clearly demanded a good edit in their contracts.”
A third said: “So that walk into the water took three or four takes? Brendan, Lauren and the boxer bloke swapped around about five times. Fake.”
And someone else, sharing various different screenshots from the episode, sarcastically added: “Must have been awful doing it twice.”
Daily Star Online has contacted a representative for the show for comment.
