How to watch 'Celebrity SAS' wherever you are

Normally, we'd expect top-notch treatment for those in the limelight, but the 16 reality TV stars, athletes, musicians, and more are taking on an entirely different experience in Thung Ui, North Vietnam, where they'll be tested with physical and psychological activities. 

"There will be no special treatment for any of the celebrities, as they confront surprising truths about themselves, to discover their true selves," Channel 4 said in a statement. "The DS don't care how famous the recruits are, how many social media followers they have or what they have done before this. As soon as they enter the selection process, their celebrity status and luxuries are stripped away."
