This enlightening and entertaining series aims to find out how the other half lives as well-known celebs take up the challenge of passing themselves off in new identities.

In the first episode of Celebrity Swaps, antiques dealer and game show host David Dickinson and motoring presenter Vicki Butler-Henderson embark on a voyage of personal discovery as they agree to swap genders in the ultimate makeover. After the latest prosthetic techniques have been used to carry out the transformation, we follow David and Vicki as they try to convince their family that they are who they say they are.

The following week, Linda Robson and James Hewitt will be switching not only their looks but their entire backgrounds. We take a working class character and a member of a silver spoon brigade and (using the wonders of modern technology), watch as they go from rags to riches and from prince to pauper.
