Spitbank Fort Clarenco Hotel, Solent, Portsmouth, England

Beginning June 4, 2002 the Fort was used as a location for 'Banged Up With Beadle'. For six weeks British TV personality Jeremy Beadle was locked in its dungeons. Cameras followed him as he coped with survival, plus learning skills with a different member of the public each week. These skills were put to the test as a live insert each Saturday evening into 'Ant and Dec's Takeaway'. The fort was also featured on an episode of Most Haunted in series 8.
Hotel
Spitbank is currently owned by Clarenco (owners of Horse Sand Fort and No Man's Land Fort), and has been renovated for use as a small luxury spa hotel and retreat with 8 bedroom suites.
