SAS Australia is set to return to Seven later this year, and the network has named 18 celebrities who’ll take part in the gruelling challenges this season.

A smattering of former sports stars will be joined by actors, media personalities, a Bra Boy, musicians, and a former politician, with the series to be produced by Screentime, a Banijay Group company.

Leading the names are former NRL and rugby player Sam Burgess, ex-tennis star Mark Philippoussis, and dual Olympian Jana Pittman, plus Ironman Jett Kenny, Olympian John Steffensen and AFL player Heath Shaw, among others whose former sporting prowess should leave them in relatively good stead for the challenge.
