As Joe chatted to the panel, host Christine Lampard asked how he achieved the incredible transformation.
The presenter said: ‘It’s not eating wine gums. I’m not eating chips. I go to the gym six days a week for an hour a day.’

The Price Is Right host previously said he signed up for the show after his dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer, and he sadly died just days before they filmed the famous strip.
‘I thought if I’ve got to stand next to Ashley Banjo and have everything out I don’t want my belly to be the only thing they’re looking at. People think it’s been photo-shopped. It’s all me.
‘At the very end we had 15 blokes come on with testicular or prostate cancer. There’s 26 of us on the stage with nothing on. I had a cuddle with Ashley and said ‘don’t get too close’.
‘Then everyone got in a scrum. I had 25 other willies banging on me. I didn’t like it.’

Coleen Nolan also pointed out that Joe had several new tattoos, which led the star to joke: ‘Some of the tattoos are new. I’ve turned into Tom Hardy in the later life. Do you think I’m like Tom Hardy?’
When asked why he was spurred to get in shape, Joe added: ‘I changed twenty years ago when my mum died. That was a pivotal moment for me I realised my own mortality then I try to live my life every day.’
Joe’s appearance on the show also came as he prepares to play Frank Spencer in the UK tour of Some Mothers Do ‘Av ‘Em.
