ITV has decided to postpone the 2024 series of 'The Real Full Monty' due to challenges in recruiting celebrities willing to participate in the show. The annual program involved male and female celebrity groups performing stripteases to raise awareness about cancer screenings.

ITV has shelved the 2024 series of The Real Full Monty after struggling to find celebrities willing to take part on the show.

The annual event saw two groups of celebs – one male, one female – perform a strip tease to a theatre audience in order to encourage people to get cancer checks.Ashley Banjo has been the long-running lead of the cast, using his choreography skills to create the routine. However, it seems stars have been reluctant to bare all this year, and now ITV have decided to sit out this year.: “Getting celebrities to agree to take off all their clothes in front of not only a live audience, but millions more thanks to the cameras, is no small task.

“Even Coleen Nolan, who has been involved for many years, has told how absolutely terrifying she finds it. So the decision has been made to give it a break. It does not mean it will never come back, but there are no plans in the pipeline at this point.” An ITV spokesperson confirmed the news and said: “The Real Full Monty has taken a number of guises over the past few years from the original men-only line-up, to a version on ice, in order to raise awareness around cancer. We are resting the format this year.”It has since been picked up for versions in the US, France, The Netherlands and Germany.
