Celebrity fans were left stunned after a famous face “dropped the c-bomb”.

The star-studded show returned to TV screens on Friday (October 25) for a Stand Up To Cancer special including an array of celebs. The likes of Frank Skinner, Miriam Margolyes and Kristin Scott Thomas all sat down to share their thoughts on the latest bits of telly.

However, things took an awkward turn when Lesley Joseph let slip a rather a naughty word while watching a tense gameshow. During the episode, Lesley and Miriam watched quiz show Only Connect.

But it got a bit too tense for Lesley who blurted out: “C***" after someone on the show got a question wrong. Pal Miriam then quipped: “Well I thought that but I thought I better not say it,” as Lesley giggled along.

Meanwhile, fans picked up on the ‘c-bomb’ too, and rushed over to X. One person said: “Watching #gogglebox thinking Jesus what is going to come out of Miriam’s mouth tonight and Lesley Joseph drops the C bomb first, was not expecting that.”

Someone else wrote: “Lesley Joseph just dropped the C bomb on Celebrity Gogglebox Legend!” A third penned: “I never thought I'd hear Lesley Joseph c bomb but I'm so glad I have. Anyone who says that word is a good person in my book.”

As well as Lesley and Miriam, other famous faces have joined the show. England football star and boxer and I'm A Celeb star, Tony Bellew have signed up, as well as Josh Widdicombe and Stephen Merchant.

Miriam expressed her excitement, saying: "When they asked me to do Gogglebox for Stand Up to Cancer, I thought, 'Well, if I can watch television AND raise money for a wonderful cause, count me in!"

She added: "What could be better than that and doing it with my brilliant old friend of nearly 40 years, Lesley Joseph? She's wise and funny and knows everyone; a perfect partner in crime. Also, Stand Up to Cancer does vital work, and if we two old birds can help towards that - just show me the sofa, I'm all for it."

Lesley exclaimed: "What a joy it is to be doing Gogglebox for Stand Up to Cancer this year, as it's such a vital cause and tangibly changes lives. And what fun it'll be to sit and watch some TV with Miriam Margolyes."
