Ashley Banjo reveals Full Monty stars demanded the heating is turned up in the London Palladium to help the size of their todgers
Getting their kit off in front of 2,000 people was made easier thanks to the theatre's central heating system
ASHLEY Banjo has revealed celebrities including Harry Judd and Matthew Wolfenden insisted the heating in the London Palladium was on full blast to make sure their todgers didn’t shrink.
Tonight, viewers will see the group of wannabe strippers take to the stage and go all the way in front of 2,000 people eager to get a glimpse of their crown jewels.
It wasn’t easy for Diversity star Ashley and his co-host Alexander Armstrong to get the group, made up of McFly’s Harry, Emmerdale star Matt, Elliott Wright, Wayne Sleep, Mark Foster, Dom Littlewood and Danny John Jules, to get their clobber off.
But speaking exclusively to The Sun Online, Ashley said one of the main concerns was making sure their packages looked as big as possible.
Ashley said: “All the guys involved have asked for the heating to be turned up. We don’t want any grapes do we!
“They are going to need heat pads to keep them warm.
“It’s all the clothes off, everyone naked!”

Ashley has remained coy about whether he and Alexander will also be getting their kegs off for the crowds however.
He added: “You’ll have to see if I get my kit off…at the minute I’m just behind the scenes.
“But I’ve had to learn how to strip. Now I’m an expert stripper. I’ve kept one of the outfits, just for me at home.”
The Real Full Monty celebrates the 20th anniversary of the iconic British film which starred Robert Carlyle and Mark Addy.
It was also organised to help raise awareness of prostate and testicular cancer.
The Real Full Monty airs tonight on ITV at 8:30pm.
