Russell Kane had the Steph's Packed Lunch audience in stitches when he wore a sparkly Union Jack jacket whilst cracking a joke about Brexit. The English writer, comedian and actor made the joke during Steph's Small Business Market segment, where he got into the Jubilee spirit by wearing a Jubilee Jacket.
Russell, 46, showcased a selection of goods from small, creative businesses including a gardening company, a brewery and party supplier. Russell said: "If you're having a get-together for your lovely jubbly jubilee, you need some decorations, look!"
Grabbing a balloon emblazoned with the Union Jack, and putting on his best gameshow host voice, Russell exclaimed: "Party Fever have all the essential supplies! From bunting, balloons, even headwear!"

Pointing to his jacket, Russell Kane said excitedly: "This jacket too! It's not my Uncle Darren's Brexit jacket. It's a genuine thing you can celebrate the jubilee with."
The audience burst into laughter, leaving Russell bemused for a few seconds. The Union Jack sequined Bomber Jacket was patterned in a vintage style print, which could probably be spotted from space owing to its next-level sparkly factor.
Guests on the show included musical star Lee Mead, Dr Naomi who shared advice for spotting gynaecological cancer and Theo Michaels who cooked up a storm in the kitchen when he made Greek pasta bake.
Viewers were quick to react on social media. Lizann tweeted with cry-laughing emojis: "Not my Uncle Darrens’s Brexit Jacket! #stephspackedlunch."
Small Business Research and Enterprise Centre tweeted: "We love #StephsPackedLunch and the support they show small businesses."
Steph’s Packed Lunch airs weekdays at 12.30pm on Channel 4
