Jake Quickenden gets testicular examination live on Loose Men in 'life saving' moment

Jake Quickenden has come in for widespread praise from his Loose Men co-stars and viewers at home, after getting a testiclular examination live on camera, to raise awareness of cancer in men and urge them to get regukar checks

As International Men's Day nears, Loose Women aired another all-male Loose Men special on Friday, with Vernon Kay as host as Olly Murs, Larry Lamb and Ade Adepitan on the panel. Over the course of the 60 minute broadcast, a number of topics were covered, including how the men would feel if their other halves proposed to them to lying about their age and how their friendship groups have changed over the years.

As Loose Men reached its halfway mark, Vernon revealed that ex I'm A Celebrity and Dancing on Ice champion Jake would be getting an examination in the studio, just as fundraising efforts step up for Movember, an annual campaign to raise awareness on men's health issues such as prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and men's suicide.
