Set to a risqué routine choreographed by Diversity’s Ashley Banjo, the line-up included Love Island’s Jack Fincham, comedian Joe Pasquale, former snooker player Willie Thorne, footballer Jason Cundy, Emmerdale’s Kelvin Fletcher, Crimewatch’s Rav Wilding, Dancing on Ice’s Matt Evers and Strictly star Gorka Marquez.

In addition to more light-hearted moments (including several of the men opting for a "boyzilian”wax), the group also shared personal stories about family and friends who had had prostate and testicular cancer — including Pasquale's tribute to his late father, and Thorne's own diagnosis in 2015 — before hearing from members of the public who have or have had the disease.
