Channel Seven’s new military-style reality show SAS Australia will see stars attempt to pass the selection process to join the Australian Army’s elite Special Air Service.
And in a trailer for the October premiere, released on Sunday, five celebrities revealed why they swapped their home comforts for the toughest challenge yet.
PR queen Roxy Jacenko declared that she’s more than just ‘handbags and fashion’, while convicted drug smuggler Schapelle Corby said she wants to ‘change’ her life.
