Matt Lucas stuns The One Show viewers with dramatic weight loss

Matt Lucas stunned BBC viewers with his dramatic weight loss after he appeared on The One Show on Thursday night.

The Come Fly With Me star was joined by his mother as the two discussed his appearance on Who Do You Think You Are, which detailed his family's connection to Anne Frank.

The 48-year-old comedian previously opened up to Scots telly host Lorraine Kelly about his weight loss goals, telling her had to "do something about his weight" after piling on the pounds during lockdown.

He told ITV's Lorraine that he "had to do something about it".

At the time he said: "I lost some weight, I needed to take the edge off, because I put on a lot of weight in lockdown."

He added: "I've still got a bit of a tum and a bit going on here [point to his chin]. I'm not a skinny minnie."

Viewers were stunned to see the comic's impressive weight loss.
