Coleen said: “I’m going to become a grandma,” as the audience clapped and cheered.

Clarifying things, the star said: “My pedigree cat, Lily, I was saving her for the right pedigree ragdoll male and she jumped out of the bathroom window and went off with the local tom cat.”

Well at least one of your pussies is getting a bit of action.

Denise then joked: “Well at least one of your pussies is getting a bit of action,” as the audience and panel erupted into laughter.

Andrea said: “It’s only Monday,” to which Saira Khan said: “Only she [Denise] could get away with it.”
