Joe Pasquale caught the eye of many after he appeared on Good Morning Britain on Tuesday morning.
The comedian, 58, appeared on the show to discuss his new project - a remake of Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em - but viewers were left "drooling" when a snap was unveiled of him working on the stage show The Full Monty.
Proving Joe's semi-naked snap got some viewers hot under the collar, one wrote: "Jesus H Christ anyone see the shape of Joe Pasquale on Good Morning Britain, fair play."
Another gushed: "Oh My Word I'm drooling over Joe Pasquale. Who'd have thought it."
And it was not just viewers who were impressed with Joe's buff body as host Richard Madeley appeared shocked as he quizzed: “Is that you?”
“Do you have a six pack?” asked Ranvir Singh.
“Well, it’s more of a party seven,” Joe quipped.
Joe explained how he got his toned frame as he shared: “A little bit of weights but I do boxing. I get beaten up a lot.”
Joe revealed that he had already shaped up for his role in The Full Monty, but motivated himself to transform further after he was dubbed “portly”.
“It was because of the Full Monty and also we had a review on one of the shows of Some Mothers, one of the viewers said I was a Portly Frank Spencer.
“Portly? I can’t be portly,” he added.
Joe stripped off to raise awareness for testicular and prostate cancer for The All New Monty: Who Bares Wins last year.
Sadly, his father Joseph passed away after he filmed the show but before it aired on screens.
Explaining why he wanted to take part in the show, Joe said: "Sadly my dad had prostate cancer. During the filming he got worse and worse and he died a couple of days before it went out."
* Good Morning Britain airs weekdays from 6am on ITV.
