Former Liverpool footballer Jamie Carragher is set to appear on the new series of Celebrity Gogglebox next week.

Jamie will be appearing alongside fellow pundit Micah Richards on the popular Channel 4 show.

Former Strictly Come Dancing contestant Clara will be joined by her brother Andy, while Claire will settle in on the sofa next to her wife Alice Arnold, and Spice Girl star Melanie C will feature with her brother Paul.

Presenter Lorraine Kelly previously announced on her own ITV morning show that she had signed up alongside her daughter Rosie Smith.

They join returning pairings including Shaun Ryder and Bez from the Happy Mondays, father-son duo Martin and Roman Kemp and Denise Van Outen and her partner Eddie on the programme, which is beginning its third series.

Other returning favourites include new parents Iain Stirling and Laura Whitmore and veteran broadcasting couple Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford.

Celebrity Gogglebox, made by Studio Lambert, sees famous people filmed reacting, with their families or close friends, to popular television programmes.
