It is that time of the year again when 12 ‘celebrities’ are taken to the slopes, risking hospitalisation, all for money (and our entertainment) on The Jump.

As with all reality TV shows, Channel 4 has just about got 12 people we vaguely recognise from other reality TV shows, including Louisa Lytton, Sarah Harding and Sid Owen.

The broadcaster is also doing a national service by keeping numerous Olympic Gold Medalists on our TV screens, with Rebecca Adlington, Winford Christie and Beth Twiddle all ready to make The Jump.

To find out more about the 12 contestants flick through our gallery, compiled of shots gracefully given to us by Channel 4. Sure, they’re photoshopped to no end, but that doesn’t matter, does it?

Already on this year’s show, Adlington has managed to be taken to hospital after dislocating her shoulder, and ex-Eastenders actress Lytton has been sent packing.
