Katherine Ryan pushed her jokes as far as possible on Monday, ribbing Celebrity Juice host Keith Lemon and suggesting that Fearne Cotton was ‘sexually harassed’ on the show.
Introducing the year’s best television at the 2019 TV Choice Awards, Katherine spoke of the recent captaincy changes on the ITV2 quiz show after Fearne stepped down to focus on her podcast and solo career.
‘We’ve seen a change of captains on Celerity Juice, she said, adding: ‘In an age of sexual harassment, at least Fearne’s happened in plain sight and she got properly paid for it.’
Nervous laughter filled the air as she continued: ‘It’s Keith Lemon, he’s proof for perverts everywhere that an obvious creep is cute, it’s way less threatening than a stealth one.’
