After speculation linked him to the show last year, it has been confirmed that Paul Gascoigne will appear on new Channel 4 show Scared of the Dark, alongside other stars including Scarlett Moffatt and Chris Eubank.
Last summer, The Sun reported that the football legend would be taking part in the gruelling programme, with a source saying: "“This will be a real endurance challenge for Gazza - but that’s the whole point of the show."
The insider added: “During that time he’ll also have to complete a series of thought-provoking tasks in order to keep his place in the contest. Despite the scale of the challenge, Gazza passed all his assessments with flying colours and filming on the programme will start shortly.”
