Gladiators star Giant 'admits to taking steroids in resurfaced YouTube video'... as he insists he 'responsibly' came off them more than a year ago


Giant, whose real name is Jamie Christian-Johal, allegedly spoke about using the 'muscle-boosting' class C drugs in YouTube videos, which resurfaced after his debut on the show.

Former star Warren Furman, who was better known as Ace, previously admitted he dabbled in banned steroids in a bid to bulk up and that he was warned by bosses he would be sacked if he didn't stop. The popular game show, which was originally broadcast on ITV from 1992 to 2000, sees contestants battle highly trained athletes called 'gladiators' in gruelling physical challenges. According to BBC ratings, an average audience of 6million, with a peak of 6.4million, tuned in to see how the contenders fared against the new superhuman Gladiators - Fury, Apollo, Fire, Legend, Dynamite, Giant, Sabre, Steel, Electro, Phantom, Athena, Nitro, Diamond and Viper.
