Celebrity Sabotage

Lifted Entertainment


I had the complete privilege of working on Celebrity Sabotage - a new primetime gameshow for Lifted Entertainment/ITV, assisting Stu Bruce, Dave Williams, Ricky Barber and Kim Bradfield; as 5 celebrity saboteurs scupper the best efforts of unsuspecting competition contestants.


The challenges, costumes and locations made the work pretty tricky, but when you add in the fact that we were essentially making a secret TV show behind the scenes, things became that much more difficult and important to get right, first time. Think "Impractical Jokers" mixed with shows like The Great British Sewing Bee or Masterchef.


The location, whilst picturesque and sprawling, did give us some RF issues due to a nearby TV tower, so extra care had to be taken with placement of multiple transmitter fins. The varied nature of the show meant that we regularly had to repo within the huge site, so careful planning and physical stamina was needed to always stay one step ahead.


All our combined efforts paid off to create what I believe to be, one of the funniest new shows on TV.
