Who's 'Faking It' for Channel 4?

11 Jul 2003

Channel 4 producers recently turned to Glenn Kinsey for expert help in coaching the latest subject of their award-winning Faking It documentary.

Today saw the individual put to the test in a live broadcast on GMTV's, Entertainment Today where celebrity judges had to guess who the "faker" was amongst four TV presenters and reporters.

The documentary series is a transformational battle against the odds. Individuals are plucked from their natural habitat and, with the help of expert tuition, given four weeks to master a skill well enough to fool a group of expert judges.

Previous programmes have featured the likes of punk rocker to classical conductor, solicitor to Garage MC and Navy officer to drag queen!

Today's live broadcast showed each of the four presenters - one of which, coached by Glenn Kinsey, hadn't even set foot in a TV studio four weeks ago - delivering a live report to camera before conducting a celebrity interview with pop duo, The Appletons.

The expert judges then had to decide who was the "fake" amongst the pro's.

We don't want to spoil it by revealing the outcome but all will be revealed when the programme is broadcast in the Autumn!
