FAKING IT: REALITY SERIES REBOOTED BY CHANNEL 5 AFTER 20 YEARS

Over twenty years since it first graced our screens, the iconic and award-winning Faking It is back and putting a new generation of fakers to the test.

In each episode, a brave volunteer is dropped into a completely alien world and given just four weeks – and help from a handful of mentors – to master a new skill and convince a panel of experts that they are the real deal.

As worlds collide and tempers rise, it’s an emotional journey for fakers and mentors alike. Can they pull it off? Or will the judges realise that they are just Faking It?

Faking It originally aired from 2000 to 2006 on Channel 4 with 48 episodes produced, with most still available to stream on Channel 4's streaming service. Broadcast were first to report that Channel 5 were rebooting the series last Summer.

Each episode sees a member of the public partnered and living with a trained expert for a month with the aim of competing in a contest for which ever skill or activity they have learned. A panel would then pick which contestant was 'faker'.

More details will be revealed in due course.
