Time Crashers (2015)
Ten celebrities are about to leave their 21st century lives and everything they know behind to become time travellers. Our ten intrepid travellers will crash into six very different eras of British history and have no idea where – or when – they're going. They will spend a day immersed in each era, living, working, dressing and eating as the ‘lower' classes did whilst attempting to follow orders and fulfil a task set by their superiors. Will they be able to survive history and will they be able to leave their smartphones behind?

Season 1:
The time travellers are stripped of their celebrity status and plunged into 1588 to be servants in a great manor house. They receive a crash course in Elizabethan etiquette, deference and servitude.
In this episode, the time crashers find themselves in 1468 - the golden age of chivalry. They all take on the role of male squires in the service of two knights who will go head-to-head in a joust.
It's 1913 and the time crashers are servants at an Edwardian stately home that hosts a shooting party
It's 1796 and the celebs are Georgian farm workers. The men must ensure the farm and animals are scrubbed and spotless ready for the Viscount's visit, while the women are busy baking.
It's 1885 and the celebrities are in a Victorian fishery where they have to fulfil a huge order for Billingsgate market, but the conditions are harsh and the work is backbreaking.
The Time Crashers land in AD 43 where they face their toughest challenge yet by creating a Celtic feast in two days before they return back to 2015
