In an audacious new social experiment, Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing, will follow nine pairs as they compete to win a £100,000 prize. The catch? They have to cope being chained to each other 24/7, doing everything just inches apart. But the minute they choose to uncuff, they'll be out of the competition.
"I think it was really important for us, when we started this, that it was a genuine experiment," executive producer Tom Clarke told Radio Times and other press.

"We were sort of there 24 hours a day having teams of people looking after them the whole time. There were teams of people watching them sleep, as bizarre as that sounds. So we were sort of always there, but it was always up to the guys themselves, how long they wanted to stay in and something for them to navigate together as well."
To be expected, the pair clash throughout their turbulent time together, particularly when George comes across a painting by Adolf Hitler in Sir Benjamin's home, something George questions, but Sir Benjamin shrugs off.
"It's absolutely about entertaining moments of bringing different worlds together, [and] it was also really important for us, from the start, that people had something they could learn," Clarke explained. "And our goal overall, and without giving spoilers away, was always to have kind of lasting friendships come out of this. This was an experiment about taking different worlds, but actually seeing it by bringing them together, we could find something positive and uplifting about the fact that different people can get along. So it wasn't purely a conflict machine."
"So we had a huge duty of care. We had welfare teams, we had people watching people overnight, we had psychologists on call. We had a sort of huge infrastructure around that and took that very, very seriously," Clarke told press including Radio Times.
Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing will air on Monday 2 March at 9pm on Channel 4.
