One confirmed contestant is Nigel Harman. The 50-year-old from London is arguably best known for his roles as Bradley Dawson in Sky One’s Mount Pleasant and Max Cristie in the BBC medical drama Casualty.
His first breakthrough came in 2003, when he was cast in the high-profile role of Dennis Rickman in the BBC soap opera EastEnders. At the time, Harman was working as a delivery driver for supermarket chain Sainsbury’s.
