Now it's Mel and LOU

Comic Sanders joins Giedroyc’s panel show

Lou Sanders is to be the sidekick on Mel Giedroyc’s new entertainment show  Unforgivable, the Dave channel has announced.

The comedian is already familiar to the broadcaster’s viewers, having won season eight of Taskmaster.

In each episode, three celebrity guests will spill their deepest, darkest secret. Among those lined up to appear are Jo Brand, Charlotte Church, Tom Allen, Scarlett Moffatt and Johnny Vegas.

Her role in the eight-part series, which airs later this year will be to keep score ‘and cause delicious mischief’.

Giedroyc has previously said of the show: ’I'll be leading a competitive confessional where only the celebrity or comic who admits to the worst behaviour can win. I intend to lead from the front by dropping in a few of my own misdemeanours to get the ball rolling, and I only hope it's as fun to watch as it is to host.’
