By james art The pair, who are friends, will commentate on a number of TV shows in the Channel 4 special, which will raise money for Stand Up To Cancer and will be broadcast on October 25 at 9pm.
They will be joined by already announced celebrities comedians Stephen Merchant and Josh Widdicombe, Frank Skinner and David Baddiel, actors Kirstin Scott Thomas and Saskia Reeves and Miriam Margolais and Leslie Joseph.
Speaking about the show, Pickford, 30, said: “I’m really excited to be joining my friend Tony on our Gogglebox sofa for Stand Up To Cancer. It’s not often you get to watch and talk about television while making a difference.
“Everyone has been affected by cancer, so we wanted to do our part to support this campaign that accelerates life-saving cancer research.”
Bellew, 41, said: “Jordan better not think about starting any remote fights – I think we both know who’s going to win that fight.
“It’s going to be an amazing night. What a great chance to kick back with one of my friends and enjoy some of the best TV shows of the week while helping to raise money for a good cause.’
Speaking after yesterday’s announcement that she would be joining the show, Dame Kristen said she was a “long-time” fan of Gogglebox.
She said: “As a long-time Gogglebox watcher, I’m overjoyed to be joining the Gogglebox family, sitting on the sofa watching TV with my lovely friend Saskia Reeves.
“And watching TV while raising awareness of Face Cancer is a win-win as it feels important for me to contribute to this vital cause, cancer affects too many of us.
“I hope the British public will join us on their sofas this Friday night for what promises to be an evening of gasps, laughter – and tears.”
Gogglebox, which sees families, couples and friends commentating on TV shows, has been on Channel 4 since 2013 and has spawned more than 20 series, including standalone films.
