Comics join Takeshi’s Castle

Stand-ups will be guest commentators when show returns to Comedy Central

Comedians London Hughes, Stephen Bailey and Lauren Pattison, pictured, will be commentating on Takeshi’s Castle when the physical game show returns to Comedy Central next month.

They will be joining new host Roman Kemp – the Capital Radio DJ and son of Spandau Ballet and EastEnders star Martin – who replaces Jonathan Ross as the host of the series.

The show will now feature a different guest commentator each week with the others including  Strictly contestant fellow  Capital presenter Vick Hope and reality TV personalities Georgia  Toffolo, Chris Hughes, Georgia Kousoulou and Tommy Mallet.

Comedy Central’s  Louise Holmes said: ‘We’re really mixing things up this series by having celebrity commentators visible in the corner of the screen and Roman’s cheeky, energetic humour fits perfectly with the crazy antics of Takeshi’s Castle.'

Takeshi’s Castle, Indonesia starts on November 22 on Comedy Central UK.
