A show featuring celebrities Made In Chelsea’s Ollie Locke, DJ Melvin Odom, and comedian Russell Kane will explore men’s fertility
The Channel 4 one-off programme, which has the working title of Celebrity Save Our Sperm, will feature a series of experiments designed to improve their sperm count and quality, and hosted by Dr Anand Patel.
A Channel 4 spokesman said: “Over the last 40 years, male sperm count has dropped in the west by a whopping 59 percent. At that rate, it could reach zero by 2045 if we don’t find a way to halt the decline.
“Studies have shown it’s possible to transform men’s sperm count in just two or three months through a few lifestyle changes, so, now, our three celebrity men are putting therapies that could potentially save their swimmers to the test.
“Across the eight weeks, Ollie, Melvin, and Russell will take part in a series of experiments in the hope of kickstarting their fertility. Along the way, as they undergo this transformative experience, they will each share their very personal reasons for taking part.”
Clemency Green, commissioning editor for Channel 4, said: “Male fertility is such an important subject that is rarely discussed and I’m full of admiration for Ollie, Melvin, and Russell who are helping us break taboos by opening up the conversation and putting their own and putting their own fertility under the microscope.”
Channel 4 has yet to announce a date for the programme to air.
