A profile of The Circle's Woody Cook, who is currently appearing on Celebrity Gogglebox alongside his mother Zoe Ball.

Woody Cook is currently appearing alongside his DJ presenter mother Zoe Ball on Channel 4's Celebrity Gogglebox.

The 19-year-old became a star in his own right last year when he took part in the second series of The Circle, a reality series which saw contestants move into an apartment block, whereupon they are only permitted to communicate with each other through a social media platform called the circle.

Woody decided to compete on the show as his true self - although he decided against telling his fellow contestants that his mother is Zoe Ball, or that his father is also a famous face - superstar DJ Norman Cook, aka Fatboy Slim.

Having survived the threat of an early vote-off, Woody became a popular member of the group and survived until the last day, ultimately finishing in fifth place.

During his time on The Circle, Woody became involved in one of the show's most bizarre moments when he unwittingly began flirting with TV host Richard Madeley, who was masquerading as a young woman called Judy.

After appearing on the show, Woody, who is bisexual, went on a travelling holiday with his long-term girlfriend around Australasia but returned to the UK just before the coronavirus lockdown began.

The youngster completed sixth form college in 2019 and appears to have ambitions to follow in his parents' footsteps as a DJ and is currently testing the waters with his own amateur radio show.

Celebrity Gogglebox continues Fridays at 9pm on Channel 4.
