Who is taking part?

Coleen Nolan, Megan McKenna, Sarah-Jane Crawford, Michelle Heaton, Victoria Derbyshire, Ruth Madoc, Helen Lederer and Sally Dexter will all be baring all for the one-off performance.

Several of the stars have spoken about their experiences with cancer, including breast cancer, and how it has made the show of extra importance to them.

Journalist Derbyshire underwent treatment for breast cancer in 2015 and had a mastectomy while Heaton had a preventative double mastectomy in 2012 after being diagnosed with the BRCA2 gene.

Presenter Crawford has also has surgery to remove a breast lump, having had several cancer scares. Nolan lost her sister Bernie to the disease back in 2013.
