UK TV channel Five has commissioned Flame TV to produce a second season of Celebrity Swap, a new four part series following two different celebrities each week as they undergo the ultimate makeover: one star couple will swap gender, another age, another race and a fourth class. They then try to fool close friends or family.
In the second programme, to be shown on 10th October, Julie Goodyear and Peter Andre swap ages. Sixty-something ex-soap star Julie undergoes an extensive makeup process to become Linda Hart, a punkish TV producer in her forties.
The makeup is in the more than capable hands of Neil Gorton and Vanessa White. Neill claims that: ‘You will see these stars transformed to the point where their own mothers don’t recognise them in close proximity.’
