has stirred controversy with its new TV show Go Back to Where You Came From. The show gathers six Brits together to experience what refugees go through in coming to the UK.
The opinionated stars of the show are both those who have previously slammed policies and campaigned for refugees – but now they’re embarking on an “eye-opening journey” to “the world’s most dangerous places”.
One star in particular will be a very famous face to some viewers. Chloe Dobbs is a regular face on , and graduated from Oxford University with a degree in Politics, Philosophy and Economics.
Fans might remember her being left fuming as she raged on the programme: “This is absolutely bonkers!” over proposals to crack down on MPs having second jobs.
Chloe fumed: “I think this is an absolutely bonkers proposal. Now I completely understand if an MP is spending all day, every day doing GB News shows and neglecting their job as an MP, then fine.

“We’ve had a huge issue for many years with people feeling like they’re completely disconnected from the parliamentarians that represent them, especially around , where we had three quarters of Parliament being pro-Remain and people feeling like they’re pitted against.
“I think this is a great way to restore trust and for people to feel like they’re having proper conversations with MPs, because when it’s just a journalist going up to an MP with a microphone and they give this typical politician’s answer, you don’t really learn anything from it. You don’t really understand their proper thinking.”
Chloe also owns a paddle-boarding business, and was left “gobsmacked” by the levels of poverty she experienced in Syria as part of the new show.

She explained: “We were in the Kurdish part, north of , in that area it seemed like it was relatively safe for civilians, but people were still fleeing because the poverty was off the scale. The poverty was so shocking, I think it struck a chord with all of us who were there.”
Also making up the cast is chef turned star Dave Marshall, who amassed more than 350,000 followers on the platform.
They’ll be joined by haulage business owner Nathan, asylum seeker protester Jess, journalist Mathilda Mallinson and sociopolitical commentator Bushra Shaikh.
The show kicks off tonight (February 3) at 9pm on Channel 4.
