Six British people were tricked into thinking they had witnessed the murder of actress Brigitte Nielsen, for a new reality TV show.
Producers of Sky show Killing Brigitte Nielsen made the participants believe the Danish star had been killed on board a Greek yacht, before arresting them, throwing them into jail and then freeing them in a staged jailbreak.
Producer Alki David said, "We never made anybody feel they were in personal danger. We gave them GBP1,500 each and three days holiday in Greece afterwards.
"It is based on managing someone's entire reality like The Truman Show movie."
The unwitting group all answered an advertisement to take part in a sailing documentary for the Greek Tourist Board.
