Rufus Hound has confirmed that he has left Celebrity Juice.

The comedian has served as a regular panellist on Keith Lemon's ITV2 programme since 2009, but was mysteriously absent from later episodes of its most recent series, which concluded on May 3.

Speaking to Digital Spy at the 10th anniversary performance of We Will Rock You in London tonight, Hound revealed that he is "not on that show anymore" and a return to Celebrity Juice in the future is "frankly unlikely".

Asked why he had decided not to come back, Hound said only that he is "very busy with other projects".

He added: "Celebrity Juice is 'The Keith Lemon Show' isn't it, so as long as Keith's there most people are getting everything they want from it. So onwards and upwards for them."

Celebrity Juice has been nominated for 'Best Entertainment Programme' and the 'YouTube Audience Award' at this year's BAFTAs. The ceremony takes place on May 27.

Let us all rejoice.

Yes!

Funny the other day my friend and I were discussing that ****ing irritating moment where he threw a chair and ran around (idek why he did, guess no one was paying him attention) and I flicked to ITV2 and that exact bit played.

Not surprised I like him but it always felt odd having him randomly sat there on the end.

He is a bit annoying and overated, not as funny as the audience make out.

I don't watch this show (have seen it a couple of times) but Rufus Hound is hilarious.

His appearance on Xtra Factor last year when he took the piss out of Kelly's 'sick week' >>>>

I always felt sorry for Fearne having only one new guest each week but Holly always got two!

It's not fair really as Holly has the perfect pair already.
