Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins looks set for dramatic scenes as it released a new trailer teasing the upcoming series on Wednesday.
Starting on Sunday 4 September at 9pm, 14 celebrities will face a brutal selection course run by the elite team of ex-special forces operators – Chief Instructor, Rudy Reyes, and his team of Directing Staff (DS), Foxy (Jason Fox), Billy (Mark Billingham) and Remi Adeleke.
Teasing what viewers can expect in a new trailer, it sees a voiceover say: "Welcome to our extreme spa where celebrity treatments include a relaxing plunge pool, skin exfoliation and motivational speakers."
It then cuts to Maisie Smith in the desert shouting: "I need help!" while Ferne McCann is seen grimacing during a brutal challenge.
It ends by quickly showing a montage of the other celebrities, including Curtis Pritchard and Pete Wicks, testing themselves during the intense experience.
The new trailer comes after former EastEnders star Maisie, 21, revealed she went on the Channel 4 show to inspire "other young girls".
Speaking ahead of the new series, which is the longest yet, Maisie discussed why she decided to sign up as well as her preparations for the show.
Talking about joining, Maisie said: "I have nothing to prove but I kind of went in hoping that I would inspire young, small women that we're just as strong as anyone else, as any of the big, strong men.
"It felt quite empowering that I was the youngest one there. I came out of it feeling stronger than I've ever felt. I felt like I definitely did what I came there to do to inspire other young girls."
She added: "I'd seen the show and I remember watching it thinking, 'Wow. What a strong bunch of people.' I really just wanted to put my mental and physical strength to the test.
"I'm very competitive. I've always loved pushing myself and seeing my limits. It's the perfect challenge for me, is what I thought."
Speaking about her preparations ahead of the show, Maisie continued: "I was asked to go on it four weeks before the start, so I only really had a month to prepare and in that month I just went absolutely crazy!
"I was just hitting the gym every day and trying to beat all my personal bests. I was running on the treadmill with weights on my back for hours.

"We got to Jordan a few days before and me and Jade [Jones] were running on the beach and I'd have her on my back and then we'd swap over. It was just really intense fitness that I never used to do at home."
And as well as inspiring "other young girls", Maisie also inspired fellow contestant Calum Best who praised the actress for her strength during the show.
Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins returns to Channel 4 on Sunday 4 September at 9pm.
