Press clippings

It's easy to laugh along with Keith Lemon when he's flanked by celebrities sniggering and looking shocked at his every word on Celebrity Juice, but when the beast is unleashed into his own "reality" show, the joke wears a little thin. Despite this, Leigh Francis's comic creation is back with another series of Lemon La Vida Loca and Keith's now single, so that gives him ample opportunity for light-hearted women-pestering, best illustrated by his foray into music with the charmingly titled debut I Wanna Go On You.

Lemon La Vida Loca - Episode 1.4 review

Leigh Francis's excellent Lemon La Vida Loca concluded this week with an episode just as hilariously rude and ridiculous as its predecessors.

Lemon La Vida Loca - Episode 1.3 review

It was also great this week to see a softer side to Lemon La Vida Loca and that Rosie is human and simply wants to stop Keith's wandering eyes.

Keith Lemon joins us for a live webchat

Funnyman Keith Lemon will be in the hotseat when he joins us for a live webchat Q&A session today.

ITV2's new spoof reality show Lemon La Vida Loca may well sail over the heads of those Celebrity Juice fans who think Keith Lemon is a real person.

But there have been enough knowing winks in the first two episodes to suggest it could have legs.
One thing, Keith. If you do want a second series, you and your lovely lady, Rosie, need to get busy in the baby-making department. These shows seldom survive if there aren't at least a couple of cute kids to coo over. Just ask Peter Andre (who, by the way, still loves his kids.)

Lemon La Vida Loca - Episode 1.2 review

Another thing which I think it's just excellent about Lemon La Vida Loca is the casting of Laura Aikman as Rosie - the title character's long-suffering girlfriend. She is playing the role just perfectly at the moment and is actually really, really authentic as her.
