‘Gladiators' returns to our screens this weekend for a second series and viewers will be introduced to two new Gladiators!
Joining the previously announced Gladiator line-up are Cyclone and Hammer. 23-year-old Cyclone is an Irish Powerlifter and at 5 foot 10 considers herself the ultimate all-round athlete.
Cyclone says “I’ve got the look, I’ve got the energy and I’ve got the muscles.”
Joining Cyclone is 32-year-old World Rowing Champion, Hammer, from Nottingham. At 6 foot 5, Hammer claims that the combination of his strength and speed, at the height and size that he is, is rare and sets him apart from everyone else.
Hammer says “When you’ve got 19 stone sprinting at you, you’ve got no chance. I’m getting you.”
Series two promises to be back tougher and more powerful than ever and will not only see the long-awaited return of the legendary Atlaspheres and introduction to brand-new event, Unleash. Along with the exciting new additions, viewers will see return of fan favourites Apollo, Athena, Bionic, Comet, Diamond, Dynamite, Electro, Fire, Fury, Giant, Legend, Nitro, Phantom, Sabre, Steel and Viper as they face a fresh crop of gritty Contenders.
‘Gladiators' returns to BBC One and iPlayer at 5.50pm on Saturday.
