Comic Relief has been plunged into a presenter nightmare after both Joel Dommett and Zoe Ball had to withdraw from hosting due to Covid.
Masked Singer star Joel was the first of the pair to reveal he'd been struck down and forced to pull out of Friday's live charity appeal, taking to Instagram to say: "Super annoyed to report that I have the vid. This unfortunately means I have to pull out of hosting @comicrelief," as he drew over a photograph of him in the hosting line-up.
While gutted that he won't be joining the likes of Lenny Henry, Alesha Dixon, David Tennant, AJ Odudu and Paddy McGuiness in the Comic Relief studio to broadcast live to millions on BBC1, Joel was thrilled to reveal his replacement - Vernon Kay.
