Default Channel 4's practical joke

Space Cadets

A bunch of contestants apply for a reality show called Thrill Seekers, where they are promised the greatest thrill of all, although they won't know what that is until they're successfully through selection. They're put through a bunch of selection tests. What they don't realise is that the tests are to find the most gullible and ignorant of the lot. The reason is simple. The ultimate thrill is to go into space as a space tourist. The reason they must be gullible and ignorant is that this is all a hoax. They'll actually be on a set in Ipswitch.

Obviously they must be ignorant because they must be blissfully unaware that of the two manned spacecraft, one is grounded and the other can only hold three people.

Channel 4's reality progamming has always sucked... until now! I'm watching this!
