Niall Horan and Olly Murs will be couch buddies on Celebrity Gogglebox

It's that time of year again when Gogglebox gets the celebrity treatment as stars line up to appear on the show's Stand Up To Cancer special. This year our own Niall Horan will be on the couch, as the former One Directioner joins up with Olly Murs to give their views of what's been on the telly over the last few days.

"I'm such a big fan of Gogglebox so being able to be on it with Niall is amazing, especially when it's for such a brilliant cause like Stand Up To Cancer," Murs told the MailOnline.

"We all need to play a part in beating cancer so let's all join together and raise as much as we can."

Horan added: "Olly and I had a great laugh filming Gogglebox and hope that we can raise as much as possible for such a great cause.

"With every penny raised going towards finding cures for cancer, we're honoured to be a part of Stand Up To Cancer's fundraising this year."

Also appearing on the special, which airs this Friday, will be England footballers Jamie Vardy, Daniel Sturridge and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

The entire evening's viewing will be given over to the fundraising event with Britney Spears hosting a special, as well as Steve Coogan and Noel Gallagher, while there have also been many one-off shows for the series, including last night's Crystal Maze special, and a Humans spoof with Greg Davies, as well as a celebrity Tattoo Fixers.

Catch it all from 7pm on Friday, with Celebrity Gogglebox kicking off at 9pm.
