'Celebrity Juice' In The Press...

Leigh Francis' Keith Lemon gets another outing - this time as the host of a celebrity-based quiz show, with team captains Fearne Cotton and Holly Willoughby.

The first two series of Bo Selecta were funny, but this shambolic attempt at emulating Shooting Stars was absolute garbage. We sat stony-faced throughout - the Keith Lemon character is just not funny. Time for a new act, Leigh.

It was painful to see so many of the panel visibly looking like they wished they could have been anywhere else.

Celebrity Juice makes you want to vomit. And throw the television out of the window. It was that bad - so embarrassingly awful - that it was a real strain to watch it all the way through.

The worst aspect of credit crunches, killer hurricanes and human rights abuses, is how they shunt all the important news, such as stories about which hotel Peaches Geldof hasn't overdosed in, to the back of the papers. So, to test our knowledge of showbiz facts, such as which hotel Peaches Geldof hasn't overdosed in, the bloke who used to be Avid Merrion in Bo' Selecta has roped in Fearne Cotton and Holly Willoughby for this very silly panel quiz.

What's On TV, 24th September 2008

Destined to make Mock the Week seem postively highbrow, this quiz show is about celebrity, erm, news. It's hosted by Keith Lemon (one of funnyman Leigh Francis's alter egos), with Holly Willoughby and Fearne Cotton as team captains. Expect plenty of froth.

Leigh Francis's alter ego Keith Lemon hosts this new tabloid-focused quiz show based on the nation's obsession with all things celebrity - a kind of Have I Got News for You for the Heat generation. Holly Willoughby and Fearne Cotton are the team captains - so expect plenty of leching from our host.
