Celebrity Hunted 2026 lineup / Channel 4
The 12 celebs going on the run for this year’s edition of Celebrity Hunted have been revealed.
The popular show puts contestants in the role of fugitives who must do their best to evade capture by an elite team of “hunters” armed with all of the state’s technological capabilities including CCTV, facial recognition, helicopters, drones and search dogs.
The six celebrity pairings are:
- Strictly Come Dancing pro dancers Carlos Gu and Amy Dowden
- Comedians Brian Conley and Lucy Conley
- Love Island alumni Chris Taylor and Toby Aromolaran
- TV presenters JJ Chalmers and Sophie Morgan
- TV presenter siblings Scarlette Douglas and Stuart Douglas
- Comedians Jen Brister and Laura Smyth
“Celebrity Hunted is the only TV series – alongside its cousin, Hunted – which continues to remind us of the powers of the state in an entertaining and engaging way,” said executive producer Matt Bennett.
“This is our most ambitious series yet, beginning with a breath-taking aerial launch amongst the skyscrapers of London, then a daring escape at the end of the run for any who evade capture… with a great deal of entertaining mischief in between.”
The new series of Celebrity Hunted launches on Channel 4 early next month.
