The comedian, who was described as an 'excellent storytelling comic' by The Guardian, will be returning to his stand-up roots after his 2022 Unapologetic tour.

Mr Dommett said: "I'M GOING ON TOUR!

"I’m leaving your telly box and coming to you, heading up and down the country with my brand-new show, Happy Idiot.

"I’ll be telling glamorous tales from behind the camera and less glamorous anecdotes of first-time fatherhood.

"It’s going to be fun and you should come!"

The award-winning comedian has been announced as the host of the upcoming series on ITV2, I’m A Celebrity…Unpacked.

He is also known for fronting five hugely successful series of The Masked Singer, along with two series of its spin-off, The Masked Dancer, and hosting The Masked Singer Live tour across arenas.

Recently, he took the reins of the hosting duties for Survivor on BBC One, reviving the classic format with his signature style.

He also hosted the Red Nose Day for Comic Relief show in 2024, regularly co-hosted This Morning and made his return to the National Television Awards at The O2 for a fourth year running.

Mr Dommett has recently hosted BBC's Live at the Apollo and can be seen on Amazon Prime's 'Backstage with Katherine Ryan' and Netflix's 'Comedian's of the World'.

As well as touring stand-up Mr Dommett released his first book It’s Not Me, It’s Them in 2018, which recounts his past relationships in pursuit of love.

He also co-hosts the weekly hit podcast, Never Have I Ever with his wife Hannah Cooper. The podcast sees the married couple act on unusual suggestions from listeners and each other, to experience something they’ve never done before.

This year Mr Dommett also presented the second series of game show In With A Shout on ITV.
