Stephen Graham joins Celebrity Gogglebox: Bodies star and wife Hannah Walters will be on SU2C live episode

Stephen Graham, star of Bodies, Time, and Boiling Point, will take part in a special live episode of Channel 4 reality series Celebrity Gogglebox for Stand Up 2 Cancer (SU2C). The actor will be joined by his actress and producer wife Hannah Walters, and their two children Grace, 18, and Alfie, 17.

The family will take part on the Celebrity version of the show, which sees famous faces and their families watching popular TV shows from the comfort of their sofa. It is part of an evening of special Channel 4 programming for the cancer charity.

Whilst the regular version of the show is always filmed at the real homes of the Gogglebox stars, the celebrity spin-off sometimes films at rented locations. Previous celebrity stars on the show have included Gordon Ramsay and his daughter Tilly, comedians Rob Beckett and Tom Allen, and Martin and Roman Kemp.

SU2C is a series of Channel 4 shows and specials featuring celebrity guests which raises money for cancer research. Other SU2C shows released this year include Rhod Gilbert’s special A Pain in the Neck, and The Great Celebrity Bake Off.
