Loose Women's Coleen Nolan halts show to make Penny Lancaster announcement

Coleen Nolan to appear in National Lottery's Big Bash

The Loose Women panelists were joined by guest star Fleur East during Thursday's (November 28) edition of the ITV show, but her interview was interrupted by Coleen Nolan, who made an exciting announcement.

Fleur, a former Strictly star, began the chat by announcing that she will host The National Lottery's Big Bash with Vernon Kay on New Year's Eve.

Coleen then revealed that she, along with her Loose Women colleagues, will also perform at the event at OVO Arena Wembley.

"Can I just say it's the 25th anniversary of Mamma Mia, and it's the 25th anniversary of Loose Women," Coleen clarified.

She continued, "So us three Loose Women, me, Linda Robson and Penny Lancaster - we're joining with the Mamma Mia team to do a big performance," reports the Mirror.

After the audience applauded, a nervous Coleen confessed: "We only have 24 hours to rehearse it. I mean, I'm scared to death."

The former pop star continued: "I wake up in the morning and think, ‘Why did I say yes to this?’ but it’s going to be an amazing night. The fact that it’s New Year’s Eve, and I have no idea what song we are singing, though."

Fleur confirmed the three Loose Women will be singing Waterloo by Abba to mark the song's 50th anniversary. "I can’t wait," Coleen excitedly added.

The Big Bash takes place at OVO Arena Wembley and will see star-studded performances from Craig David, Olly Alexander, House Gospel Choir, and more.

There will also be an emotional tribute to honour the 80th Anniversary of D-Day with the event also shining light on extraordinary people who made a difference to others in 2024 with the help of National Lottery funding.

Loose Women airs weekdays at 12:30pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
