Paddy McGuinness invited his Instagram followers in on his shower time as he posted a candid clip. With his bare chest on display, Paddy's bathroom video began with him declaring "Welcome to a very special shower news: the drought edition."
The Top Gear host from Bolton then proceeded to cover his dry body with shower gel, but didn't switch the water on as people are asked to rethink their water usage during the heatwave with drought declared in parts of England. "Oh the indignity," he gasped.
But then he said positively: "I tell you what, this sun is gorgeous. Yeah, it's red hot but I'm enjoying it. It's my birthday this weekend, August 14. Don't like to talk about it the big four-nine..."

Paddy revealed that his original birthday plans, with thoughts of his children having splashing time with a paddling pool, had been shelved. "I thought I'd get in the garden with the kids, fill the paddling pool up and whack on the barbie, but obviously all that's out of the window now," he said.
Moving on briefly from his birthday, he told his fans: "But Monday I'm back in the studio for Question of Sport so come down and join us, watch the show being recorded - we'll have the air con cranked up all the way so you'll have a lovely time." Then he added jokingly: "As I say it is my birthday this weekend - I don't like to talk about it - and to any brands watching, please don't send me anything through the post. I'm not interested. Unless it's high end and really expensive."
After lathering up he exclaimed: "That is sticky!" He vowed to have just a quick blast of cold water which lasted just six seconds as he frantically rinsed off the shower gel from his top half. Paddy then revealed he was sweating from his attempt to rinse so quickly and needed another shower.
But eagle-eyed fans pointed out a problem as they noticed he only seemed to wash the top half of his body in the fun clip. tracyf14 told him: "What about your sweaty b******s! Get em washed man!" naomilouisehicks agreed with a laughing emoji: "Was just about to say this."
alexb__k laughed: "Hahah I was thinking he’s not washed below his chest." jon.w17 joked: "Paddy doing his bit. But forgot to wash his bits." And mrscrusemissile74 asked with a shocked-face emoji: "But did you wash your bits P?!!"
Other fans were impressed with his effort. lifewithemmmaaaa said: "Blimey you can do a lot in them seconds." clark4817 said: "Very funny. 6 seconds? You deserve a medal . It'd take me longer to brave the cold water." And berniemoonrock commented: "This made me laugh."
Last month Paddy and his wife of 11 years Christine confirmed they had parted ways. In a joint statement about their marriage the TV star and model, who have three children, opened up about the 'difficult decision' to separate and said they had decided it was the end 'some time ago'.
In the message posted to both of their Instagram Stories, they said: "We hadn't planned on sharing this publicly until we were ready but after the lack of privacy surrounding our life personal life, we feel left with no other option but to clarify. A while ago we took the difficult decision to separate but our main focus as always is to continue loving and supporting our children.
"This was not an easy decision to make but we are moving forward as the best parents we can be for our three beautiful children. We'll always be a loving family, we still have a great relationship and still live happily in our family home together."
They went on: "We hope this now draws a line under anymore unwanted intrusion into our our private life. Although we work in the public eye we ask kindly if you could respect our wishes for privacy on this matter."
