Comedian Peter Kay caused chaos on ITV's This Morning on Thursday, exposing show secrets before even being introduced. The 52-year-old Bolton star revealed that presenter Cat Deeley keeps a hairbrush and vanity bag hidden behind a pillow on the sofa, which she uses to touch up between ad breaks. Cat was seen crying with laughter as Kay showed the items to the camera.
Kay then turned his attention to co-host Ben Shephard, joking about what he might have hidden under his cushion. Ben lifted the cushion to reveal nothing, quipping 'it's all me'. The presenters were left in stitches throughout the interview as Kay promoted his autobiography and tour.
The comedian's appearance was part of a promotional tour for his new book 'Diary: The Monthly Memoir of a Boy from Bolton', released in October. Kay also discussed his record-breaking 'Better Late Than Never' tour, which has been extended into 2026 due to overwhelming demand. All profits from the tour are being donated to 12 cancer charities.
Kay told Deeley and Shephard he preferred being on This Morning compared to The One Show, which he had appeared on the previous day to announce the tour extension. The Bolton comedian has already set performance records at Manchester's AO Arena and London's O2, where he has performed 45 shows.
In his new book, Kay also revealed details of emergency surgery for a giant kidney stone, which caused 'major trauma' to his urethra and required a stent to be fitted, leaving him in severe pain for a week.
