Joe Lycett signs up for Gogglebox Stand Up To Cancer special
Comedian Joe Lycett will be on the sofa with his aunties Pauline and Margaret for Googlebox's Stand Up To Cancer special that will air on Channel 4 this Friday (23.10.26).
Joe Lycett is the first celebrity to be confirmed for Gogglebox's Stand Up To Cancer special.
The 38-year-old comedian will be joined on the sofa by his aunties Pauline and Margaret as they watch some of the week's best TV in the charity special of the Channel 4 favourite that airs this Friday (23.10.26).
In an amusing clip showing their preparation for the show, Joe says: "Hello, Joe Lycett here and who I am here with?"
His aunties reply: "Auntie Margaret and Auntie Pauline."
Joe continues: "And we are thrilled to join the Gogglebox special supporting Stand Up To Cancer. What are we doing?"
The aunties say: "We're watching a lot of TV and eating chocolate."
Joe replies: "And we can't wait to see you on Friday. Bye!"
Meanwhile, Lycett admitted that he paid the price for being a "silly billy" as he became the latest contestant to be banished from the castle in the BBC's The Celebrity Traitors.
The comic, who was a Faithful, believes he paid the price for his desperation to be a Traitor.
Joe told the BBC: "I’m a silly billy - it was a combination of me begging for recruitment and then the Faithful being thick as mince and not thinking the obvious recruitment would be Joe.
"I don't blame them, because I would have done the same. I concede I've done this very much to myself, but I was too hungry to be recruited. And you know, if being passionate is a crime, then banish me from the castle."
Joe is a loyal fan of the hit TV show - but he now looks back on his Celebrity Traitors experience with a tinge of regret.
The Lycett Arms host added: "I'm a fan of the show, I really love this programme, and I wanted to get as much of the experience as possible.
"I wanted to know what it felt like to be a Faithful and what it felt like to be a Traitor. So it was just a desire to absorb as much of the experience as possible.
"But I hadn't factored into that that I'm a silly billy, so I sabotage myself sometimes. I think I did get a very me experience of what it was like to be me on The Traitors. I don't feel like I pretended to be someone else."
