More famous guests to welcome us into their homes for the next edition of Celebrity Gogglebox Stand Up To Cancer have been revealed. Frank Skinner and David Baddiel will join the line-up for the show’s fundraising spin-off, when it arrives on screens this Friday (25th October).
Comedians Josh Widdicombe and Stephen Merchant have also been announced for the Channel 4 episode, which raises funds for the cancer charity.
The episode will air on Friday at 9pm. In a post on Instagram, The Last Leg’s Josh Widdicombe, said: ‘It’s a huge honour to be invited around to Stephen Merchant’s house to watch TV.’
