Rapper and TikTok personality Jay Scott posted a video from behind the scenes of Blankety Blank after his father, Brian Kilgallon from Oldbury, appeared on the show on September 30.

The video, which shows Brian in his now iconic pink suit as he prepares to appear on television, went viral online, soon gathering over 100,000 views and over 4,000 likes.

Brian, from Oldbury, said: "We actually went on the show in April but it only recently went out.

"It was so good, It was really enjoyable. I actually went and had my make-up done for this one - I thought I looked pretty young."

The cheeky lollipop man appeared as a guest on the show alongside star panellists Rob Beckett, Jason Watkins, Layton Williams, Anthea Turner, Nadia Jae and Jill Scott.
