Channel 4 Commissions Third Series Of The Jump

The Jump is to return to Channel 4 for a third series in 2016.
Commissioned by Commissioning Editor for Factual Entertainment, Tom Beck and Channel 4’' Head of Factual Entertainment, Liam Humphreys and co-produced by Twofour and GroupM Entertainment, The Jump will see a group of famous faces decamp to the slopes to compete in gruelling extreme winter sports.
Mr Humphreys said: "With The Jump we've created a show that is a unique blend of daring live action, genuine sporting skill and some raucous après ski – it's the most frightening show on TV.
"It's a magical formula in which Joey Essex can legitimately beat Mike Tindall in a sporting arena. It is compelling viewing; the show wears its authentic Winter Olympics credentials lightly and keeps it’s tongue planted firmly in its cheek."
