New series Shark! Celebrity Infested Waters is making waves. It puts a group of celebrities who have a fear of sharks into the deep blue sea with some of the ocean’s most misunderstood predators.

This cross between an entertainment and natural history programme see’s Sir Lenny Henry, Rachel Riley, Ade Adepitan, Ross Noble, Dougie Poynter, Lucy Punch, and Helen George swap red carpets for wetsuits as they travel to the Bahamas. Their mission is simple: face their fears and get closer than ever to sharks. It’s not all sunshine and snorkels. Things get real, very quickly when shark attack survivor and marine expert Paul de Gelder who lost an arm and a leg to a bull shark reveals that their very first challenge is to get in the water with… bull sharks!

Belle Borgeaud, edited the final episode she said “ It was a lovely team to work with at Plimsoll Productions and there was some outstanding underwater footage to cut” Steve Flatt edited episode 4 and really enjoyed working on it.
