Love Island’s Jack and Megan are starring in the new Full Monty show

It’s for charity, guys.

Since last year’s Love Island came to an end, Jack Fincham has been up to a fair amount of things.

He moved in with Dani Dyer. He had a paid partnership with McDonald’s. He announced his split from Dani Dyer.

It’s been a bit of a whirlwind for him in fairness, as has it been for Megan Barton Hanson who ended her relationship with Wes Nelson, got custody of their hamster Jon Snow, and… did some other stuff too.

Now though, the lads are facing their biggest challenge yet – stripping off.

This time, for charity, and not just for the benefit of Love Island viewers back home.

Jack and Megan will be taking part in this year’s The All New Full Monty 2019: Who Bares Wins.

The show will see the pair, as well as a host of other vaguely recognisable celebrities, take off their clothes to raise awareness for cancer on Monday May 6 and Tuesday May 7.

The 90 minutes men’s show will air on ITV on the Monday with the women’s show featuring on the Tuesday, both at 9pm.

The first instalment will focus on regular checks for testicular and prostate cancer, with the women’s show encouraging women to check their breasts, go for cervical smear appointments and be more health aware in general.

A good cause, in fairness.

The full male cast includes:

Love Island winner Jack Fincham, Strictly pro Gorka Marquez, I’m a Celebrity winner Joe Pasquale, snooker legend Willie Thorne, Crimewatch’s Rav Wilding, Emmerdale’s Kelvin Fletcher, Dancing on Ice star Matt Evers and footballer Jason Cundy.

And the full female cast includes:

Love Island star Megan Barton Hanson, tennis legend Martina Navratilova, EastEnders actress Laurie Brett, So Solid Crew’s Lisa Maffia, Towie’s Danielle Armstrong, and Benidorm’s Crissy Rock, as well as full monty veterans Coleen Nolan and Victoria Derbyshire.

Gonna be a good one.
