Paddy McGuinness and Leigh Francis star in new ITV series


24 11 2016

ITV has commissioned a new five part comedy series starring Take Me Out's Paddy McGuinness and Celebrity Juice's Leigh Francis (aka Keith Lemon), titled The Keith and Paddy Picture Show.

The series, airing on ITV in spring 2017, features the comic presenters attempting to recreate scenes from their favourite films with the help of celebrity guests. McGuinness commented 'Keith and I have been mates for a long time. We’re both self-confessed movie nuts so paying tribute to some of the most iconic movie scenes of all time is going to be a lot of fun! I’ve told him he’ll have to play most of the female roles though – he's got long hair and it'll save us a few quid on wigs!'.
