‘Gutted it’s not back until September.’

And while nothing has been confirmed, All Saints singers Nicole Appleton and Melanie Blatt have reportedly signed up for another series after being such a hit last time.

TV bosses have been ‘desperate’ to get the duo back on the Channel 4 show after they were a huge hit with viewers during the last series.

It was also recently reported that Zoe Ball and her son, The Circle star Woody, would be appearing on the show, which is expected to air later this year.

The Radio 2 DJ is a massive fan of the show, and will now get her own chance to react to the week’s biggest TV moments and have them broadcast to the nation.

In the past, we have seen some of the best moments from the likes of Rylan Clark-Neal and his mum Linda, Nick and Liv Grimshaw, Chris Eubank and Chris Eubank Jr and Martin and Roman Kemp.
