A new TV show will challenge women to crash diet down to a size zero. The Channel 4 documentary is a ``super-skinny'' version of Super Size Me, in which a film-maker spent 30 days eating junk food.
The female volunteers will employ ``extreme weight loss methods'' to slim down.
They will attempt to emulate Hollywood stars such as the shockingly thin Nicole Richie in the hour-long show Super-Skinny Me: The Race to Size Zero.
A US size zero - equivalent to a British size four - has become the holy grail for image-conscious celebrities.
``This is a shock doc with a real sense of purpose,'' said a Channel 4 spokesman.
``It provides the perfect opportunity to debunk the current clamour for all things super-skinny.''
The documentary aims to expose the health dangers behind radical weight loss.
It is expected to air early next year.
In the 2004 hit Super Size Me, Morgan Spurlock ate nothing but McDonald's meals for an entire month.
The film charted his resulting physical and emotional decline.
