Joe Pasquale has a Pampers advert and Bob Hoskins to thank for landing a role in 2006’s Garfield movie: more here.
If you’re reading this from the UK, then you may already be acquainted with the work of comedian Joe Pasquale, whose all-but-trademarked squeaky voice is a distinctive part of his act. It’s also a voice that’s earned him a lot of professional voiceover work, and one of those jobs many moons ago was for a nappy advert.
As he explained on the Richard Herring’s Leicester Square Theatre Podcast, he was hired to do one particular Pampers campaign with the late Bob Hoskins. Unusually, the pair were to sit in a recording booth together, rather than record their lines separately. Yet as Pasquale explained, Hoskins didn’t believe the sound coming out of his co-star was quite right. “That voice… I’ve never heard it come...

It’s certainly a good time to be a Taskmaster fan. Series 15 had one of the best casts yet, becoming an instant fan favourite (and making the top 5 of our series ranking), and series 16 has a seriously promising line-up. Channel 4 has confirmed we’re getting at least six more series of Taskmaster-y goodness over the next three years, and the show is even getting its first spin-off: Junior Taskmaster, fronted by former Taskmaster alumni Rose Matafeo and Mike Wozniak.
Now that Junior Taskmaster is confirmed, there’s been a rumour that there’s a second spin-off on the way: the culinary-themed Foodmaster. If rumours in The Sun are true (!), there’s a pilot in the works already for this foodie version of the show, but Greg Davies and Alex Horne aren’t on the menu.
What if this is true and – more importantly – what if this is just the start?...

Those with a weak disposition (and a phobia of Paul Burrell) please look away now...
For we have found some of the most stomach-churning, vomit-inducing and utterly tormenting trials from the history of I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here.
So as the line-up of stars - officially confirmed by ITV yesterday - prepare to skydive/canoe/sob their way into the jungle on Sunday, they better hope none of these tasks rear their revolting heads again.
From downing pints of pulped crocodile foreskins to taking a bath full of rotten fish guts - here's 9 seriously sick Bushtucker trials below:
1. An Offal mess
Thank goodness we've not invented smell-o-vision - Lucy Pargeter was faced with shiny, pink glistening offal filled to the brim of a limo in the Limo Scream task on the show last year.
The brave soap star managed to successfully secure 10 out of 12 stars during the revolting task,...

After 13 series, there have now been more than enough I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! winners to fill up their own all-star series.
They all had to endure creepy crawlies, tough Bushtucker Trials and mockery by Ant & Dec, but they all won the hearts of the nation for a couple of weeks.
Some of them may have fallen from grace since, while some have soared up the UK fame ranks. But who were the best champions from their respective series? Here's our just-for-fun, don't-take-it-too-seriously Top 13.
13. Carol Thatcher - Series 5 (2005)
Potentially the most surprising winner of the lot, no-one could have guessed that Margaret Thatcher's daughter would have been voted the nation's favourite.
Viewers were won over by how involved she was in the tasks, her no-nonsense attitude, and the fact that she was only up against Sid Owen and Cannon & Ball.

Queen Cheryl has nabbed your spot on The X Factor, your first solo album has bombed and nobody really needs an N-Dubz reunion. What would you do right now if you were Tulisa Contostavlos?
The messy courtroom battles might be over, but what she chooses to do next might define her entire career. More music, having a proper go at acting and a return to TV are all possibilities, and it's the latter which has made the tabloids this week, with rumours that she's a target for the new series of I'm a Celebrity.
ITV would no doubt love to snap Tulisa up for the show. She's opinionated, she's colourful and she divides the public - so she'd no doubt end up gagging on kangaroo balls every night with Ant & Dec sniggering on the sidelines.

It's been little more than two weeks since Dancing on Ice's final series ended with Ray Quinn being voted champion of champions, and still we're in mourning.
If, like us, you're not quite ready to say goodbye to the skaters, sequins and snarky Jason Gardiner, there is one last chance to experience the pageantry of Dancing on Ice as favourite cast members from this year's all-stars series take to the ice for the show's national tour.
Digital Spy was lucky enough to go behind the scenes at rehearsals, where we hit the rink for a quick ice-skating lesson with runner-up Hayley Tamaddon, heard some exclusive teasers from Ray, Gareth Gates, Suzanne Shaw and Bonnie Langford about what to expect on the tour, and got some first-look footage of the fantastic new routines - including one with class clown Joe Pasquale featuring a never before-seen twist.

Dancing on Ice star Ray Quinn has admitted that he is "blagging" his way through the competition.
Appearing on Daybreak, the former singer told Aled Jones and Lorraine Kelly about his experience on the ITV skating show.
"I'm definitely blagging it… You're living on the edge on the skates… There's so much to think about… It either happens or it doesn't, that's the thing," Quinn said.
Of being one of the favourites to win, he continued: "I try not to think about it to be honest, the nerves are there anyway and you're anxious about going out and doing something that's out of your comfort zone anyway so there's a lot to think about…
"It sounds stupid but I live like a dog, I live in the moment so I live in what is happening now and what I need to do now and then once it's done it's in the pocket.

David Seaman and Gary Lucy have become the latest celebrities to leave Dancing on Ice All-Stars.
The pair follow in the footsteps of Jorgie Porter and Joe Pasquale, who exited the ITV competition after last Sunday's (January 5) first show.
Seaman and his partner Frankie Poultney received the lowest number of public votes, meaning they left the competition straight away.
Gary Lucy and partner Katie Stainsby then had to battle it out in the skate-off with Sam Attwater and Vicky Ogden to decide who remained in the show.
Lucy skated to Daughtry's 'What About Now', while Attwater performed a Riverdance for their Save Me Skate.
Three judges voted to save Attwater, meaning that he will be back to skate again.
Head judge Robin Cousins added that he would also have voted to save Attwater.
After hearing that he had come bottom of the public vote, Seaman vowed to keep skating with Poultney,...

Suzanne Shaw has spoken about her difficult decision to return to Dancing on Ice following the death of her father two years ago.
Appearing on ITV's Daybreak today (January 10), Shaw, who was joined by skating partner Matt Evers, revealed that she has been struggling without having her father to support her while she competes on the ice dancing show.

"I know how much he really was so proud of me and was so behind me."
Shaw, who won the reality show in 2008, continued: "It is going to be tough but he's looking down on me. Everything's really positive with it and I just think, 'Come on, let's do it for Vinny!'"

Dancing on Ice host Phillip Schofield has said it was "a shame" that viewers took last night's show too seriously.
Speaking on This Morning, the presenter discussed the decision to partner Jorgie Porter with Sylvain Longchambon and the criticism from fans on Twitter.
Longchambon dated Porter's Hollyoaks co-star Jennifer Metcalfe after they competed on the show three years ago, but later left her for his 2013 Dancing on Ice partner Samia Ghadie.
On the partnership choice, Schofield said: "The sense of humour wheels all fell off last night which I thought was a little bit of a shame, especially on Twitter, and it got a little controversial and I just thought, 'Come on everybody, lighten up - it's light-hearted ribbing'.
"We were giving Sylvain a bit of a hard time, but nothing that hasn't been said before and nothing that wasn't said in the Vt."

Jorgie Porter and Joe Pasquale have become the first celebrities to leave Dancing on Ice All-Stars.
Porter and her skating partner Sylvain Longchambon received the lowest number of public votes, meaning they left the competition straight away.
Joe Pasquale and partner Robin Johnstone then had to battle it out in the skate-off with Bonnie Langford and Andrei Lipanov to decide who remained in the show.
Langford skated to 'Baby It's Cold Outside', while Pasquale performed a comical routine to 'Flash' by Queen.
Three judges voted for Langford, meaning that she will be back to skate again.
Head judge Robin Cousins added that would also have voted for Langford.
Porter cried after the result was announced, prompting Phillip Schofield to assure her that the voting was "incredibly close".
He said: "You look really sad, really disappointed. That was a lot of hard work, wasn't it? This is a series of favourites...

The Dancing on Ice judges have admitted it's possible that one of the show's champions could be voted out of the competition first.
The final series of the show, which begins on Sunday, sees 14 previous contestants - including six winners - returning for a second chance at the trophy.
"This is their last chance to prove that they were the real champion," Karen Barber said. "But what we're seeing is that there are not only champions out there. There are people that purely entertain us - the likes of Joe Pasquale and Todd [Carty].
"Sometimes it's not only the best technical skater that you look forward to - it's the person that will entertain you. And if your family at home are going to pick up that telephone, who are you going to vote for? The technical person or the one that made you laugh and entertained you the most?"

We're excited about Dancing on Ice returning on Sunday, but it's a little bittersweet given that this will be the final series. Still, the show is definitely going out with a bang with an All-Star cast - including six winners.
We caught up with all the stars at the show's launch this week - with the exception of Joe Pasquale, who genuinely had to rush off to panto - so read on to find out how training is going, what Jorgie really thinks of being paired with Sylvain, and whose secret weapon is... farting?
Suzanne Shaw
Original series and position: Winner in series three (2008)
Professional partner: Matt Evers
"Oh, wouldn't it be lovely to replicate my perfect score? Whether I will or not, I don't know. I've been away in Bristol for quite a while so I haven't seen anyone compete or skate, so I don't know what level I'm at.

We don't think we've seen anything quite as revolting as the shiny and pink offal glistening inside the limo during the latest Bushtucker Trial on I'm a Celebrity last night.
Lucy Pargeter took part in 'Limo Scream' and successfully secured 10 out of 12 stars during the stomach-churning task, which involved hunting for tokens under offal and a variety of nasties within the stretch limousine.
So we've decided to remind ourselves of other nausea-inducing challenges and trials that perhaps went a step too far on I'm a Celebrity.
Close your mouth for the love of God, Joe Pasquale!
The poor comedian had sopping wet rats clambering all over his face and neck as he was submerged in water during the 'Danger Down Under' trial on I'm a Celebrity back in 2004. Look at its wet, pesky paws all over his goggles! And its fat grey tail creeping down his shirt.
Stuff of nightmares.

Considering this is a reality show which has a winners' roll including such illustrious names as Joe Pasquale, Christopher Biggins and Phil Tufnell, it's slightly baffling that some people expect something more than D-listers and Never-Heard-Of-Them glamour models.

Joe Pasquale has become the sixth celebrity to leave Dancing on Ice.
The 51-year-old TV presenter and comedian and Keith Chegwin both received the lowest number of votes from the public and faced the Save Me Skate tonight (February 10).
After both performances, all four judges voted to save Chegwin and send Pasquale home.
Asked afterwards by presenter Phillip Schofield whether he was disappointed at the result, Pasquale said: "It's a shame, but I was here five weeks longer than I should have."
He also added that previous contestants spoke about having "highs and lows" during their time on the show, but he said: "I haven't had a single low at all."
Schofield and co-host Christine Bleakley also revealed that Pasquale had been suffering from shingles during his time on the reality TV show.
He also admitted that he would like to keep skating, as long as he could continue going with professional partner Vicky Ogden.

With Valentine's Day around the corner, inevitably this means that the cheesy themes are back in business for Dancing on Ice.
Of course it's 'Love Week', so we can probably expect plenty of heart cartoons projected onto the ice, pink costumes and more mention of Samia and Sylvain's 'romance' than you can shake a sparkly stick at.
So dig out the chocolate and sparkling wine (ITV cutbacks etc) and join Digital Spy for all of the luurvely action…
20:55Thanks for joining Digital Spy this evening, and don't forget to put a bid on Pasquale's jockstrap on eBay tomorrow morning. Night, all!
20:55Well, not exactly a shock result - but a bit of a sad one at the same time as at least Joe brought a few lols to the ice. Although I can't say I'm going to miss talk of his prostate or bowel movements.
20:52Teflon...

Joe Pasquale has become the sixth celebrity to be voted off 'Dancing on Ice'. The 51-year-old comedian and TV presenter was unanimously booted off the ITV series by the judges tonight (10.02.13) after going head to head with fellow presenter Keith Chegwin, 56, in a Save Me Skate as they both received the lowest number of votes from the public. Upon hearing the decision, Joe admitted he was surprised to have progressed so far in the competition. He told presenter Phillip Schofield: ''It's a shame, but I was here five weeks longer than I should have.'' The former 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out...

There was more drama, suspense and mayhem on the skates tonight during Dancing on Ice, as the remaining eight (yes, there's still eight of them) celebrities performed for the viewers' votes.
And there was plenty to see, as Keith Chegwin morphed into a stern, serious type and Joe Pasquale wore an outfit so bright we had to adjust the TV.
Meanwhile, Matt Lapinskas came top of the leaderboard…for wearing the dodgiest costume, as he did his best impression of a crow heading to a fancy dress party as Kiss.

★☆☆☆☆ With a 'celebrity' lineup comprising of such TV icons as Joe Pasquale, Russell Grant, Tony Blackburn and - of course - Keith 'Cheggers' Chegwin, it genuinely defies belief that Andy Thompson's Kill Keith (2011) ever managed to see the light of day. There is no greater example of just how misguided, achingly desperate and painfully unfunny this cinematic abomination is than in its poster, which replicates the iconic Kill Bill (2003) one sheet, with Chegwin taking the place of Uma Thurman.
