Peter Kay makes huge surprise announcement during ad break of first I'm A Celeb

Peter Kay makes huge surprise announcement during ad break of first I'm A Celeb

And it's not that he's the face of the Iceland advert

Coleen Rooney sinking into a swamp, Barry McGuigan failing to open padlocks and GK Barry crying over cockroaches – it’s that time of year when we all watch celebs suffer in the jungle.

But the famous faces of the line-up for this year’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! weren’t the only major names who appeared on ITV last night (17 November).

For those who actually stick around during the ad break instead of nipping to the loo or making another cuppa, they’ll have spotted a certain comedian pop up on the screen.

The one and only, Peter Kay. To the joy of many, he made a huge surprise announcement in an advert during the episode.

Cast your mind back a couple of years ago when the Bolton legend announced a huge comeback comedy tour and everyone and their dad was trying to get tickets.

Well, if you can bear to know how long we've been suffering from FOMO, Kay’s now been on his record-breaking run of gigs around the UK since December 2022.

But it looks like you might have another chance at going (or going again, lucky b**tards).

During the funny new advert, Kay gets spotted by some fans as he carries a golden toilet to his mum’s iconic bungalow.

“Is that Peter Kay's mum's bungalow?” the passersby ask, pointing out the Freddie Mercury mural on the garage door.

As many of us would, the fan then asks if Kay is going to do more tour dates to which he says: “Hey, I’ve got no choice! She wants it all now.”

Yep, in typical fashion, the legend has announced he’s adding more dates to The Better Late than Never tour.

He said in a statement: “It's been wonderful doing what I love most, stand-up comedy. Laughter is more important than ever in these challenging times and with the cost of living still at an all-time high, ticket prices for the new dates will start from £35.”

Tickets for the 21 new dates go on sale on 23 November at 10am with a Virgin Media pre-sale from 10am on 21 November.
