The show has featured a host of celebrity guest appearances with regulars including Johnny Vegas, Matt Forde and Bernie Clifton, while the most series has included the likes of David and Georgia Tennant, Russell Kane, Joel Dommett, Jed Mercurio, Kerry Katona, Gabby Logan and Sally Lindsay.

Jon tweeted: "Thank you to Dave for being the third member our marriage really needed to keep things alive."

Lucy said: "Oh my gosh, I can't quite believe we are going to do more series of a show that has made Johnny Vegas become my stepdad, Jon lose a hamster, my mum scrap with Beverley Callard and David Tennant walk off set. Who knows where Series 4 will take us?"
