Ross Kemp leaves Good Morning Britain's Charlotte Hawkins red-faced with VERY cheeky question as Celebrity Bridge Of Lies returns with new series
Ross Kemp leaves Charlotte Hawkins red-faced with a cheeky question as Celebrity Bridge Of Lies returns with a new series. The first episode of the third season will see Good Morning Britain 's Charlotte compete with other presenters including Kaye Adams, Ade Adepitan and Matt Allwright. During the first instalment, set to air tonight (May 3), Charlotte crosses the bridge and has to step on truths while avoiding the lies. However, when Ross reads out a category to her, called 'horny animals', she begins to nervously giggle. The cheeky name is soon clarified and Ross explains she would need to step on tiles that have animals with horns, antlers or tusks on them. Charlotte plays to raise money for the motor neurone disease association. 'The category is animals, Rich what are we looking for?' Ross exclaims. After the category is revealed, Charlotte laughs, saying, 'Okay.' While Ross adds: 'Horny animals! We are looking for animals where the males or females usually have horns antlers or tusks.' During the instalment, Matt is challenged to find songs with repeated words in the titles, Kaye had to identify landmarks found in Italy and Ade had to pair up athletes. The new series will see ten episodes, with one airing every Saturday night. Host Ross previously revealed to MailOnline the touching moment he experienced when he had the honour of writing Dame Barbara Windsor 's eulogy. The Bridge of Lies host, 60, shared with MailOnline the final time Barb, known for her no-nonsense soap character Peggy Mitchell, sent her love and thanked him for the final time. Barbara died aged 83 in 2020 following a battle with Alzheimer's. But when Ross sat down to honour the veteran actress and write her eulogy for the funeral, he accidentally stumbled across an old card from her when looking for a pen. He told MailOnline: 'I wrote her eulogy and I spoke her eulogy. 'I keep my pilot pens out of the reach because I'm old fashioned. I use a pen and paper when I'm working as a reporter and I keep the pens away from the kids. 'I was writing her eulogy and my pen ran out. It took me two days to write it. And I reached up, it's a true story, a card, like a thin card - I didn't know what it was at the time - got caught under my fingernails as I was reaching for the Biro. 'And I pulled it up, and it was a card from her that she'd sent me some flowers. I didn't even know that was up there. I must have just thrown that up there in a little random moment. 'And it was ''Thank you, darling. Love you, Bar.'' 'And it was like so weird that I rang Scott [her husband] up and I said, ''you won't believe what's just happened''.'
