ITV fans were thrilled after award-winning daytime spin-off show Loose Men finally returned to our screens after months off air.

Loose Men sees a panel of male famous faces take to the studio, instead of the regulars, which include the likes of Kaye Adams, Charlene White and Coleen Nolan. 

Wednesday’s instalment of the ITV show marked the first episode of the spin-off this year.

Craig Doyle, Danny Jones, Pete Wicks and Jordan Banjo took to the studio and they discussed relationship taboos, if mums secretly favour sons over daughters and mental health. 

They even treated viewers to a performance as they reenacted his dance from BBC’s Strictly.

 Those watching at home were over the moon with the return of Loose Men.

‘All led, by a man with a plan. 

‘The perfect team for a brand new edition of the award-winning Loose Men.’
