Seven confirms Celebrity Splash for 2013 program line up

An Australian version of the Dutch format Celebrity Splash was among the highlights of Seven West Media’s upfront presentations in Sydney last night.

The reality show, which features celebrities competing in diving competitions to be judged by a panel of professional divers, was at the centre of an international bidding war at the TV sales market MIPCOM recently.

Other new locally produced programs expected in the new year include House Rules, a home renovation program from the makers of My Kitchen Rules which will see teams from each state hand over the keys to their home to competing teams of renovators.

A surprising local production is the return of The Mole which Seven last aired in 2005. The reworked format titled The Mole: Culture Clash will see contestants from different socio-economic backgrounds compete to uncover a mole in their midst.
