He dished: "Some lady came up to me from Hollyoaks called Tamara [Wall].

"She was all over me, all night. [She said she was] my biggest fan.

"She's a Hollyoaks actress and she wants me to play her love interest in the show."

The outspoken broadcaster then revealed show bosses approached him in a bid to seal the deal.

He added: "Then the producers came up to me and said, 'We're actually serious'.

"'If you wanna be in Hollyoaks playing Tamara's love interest then the deal's on the table'."

Piers then quipped: "I haven't seen the deal yet."

The revelation came after actress Tamara told Digital Spy that "Grace comes back with a bang" after a quiet period on the soap.

Speaking on the red carpet last night, she dished: "I can’t tell you that, just that it’s big.

"She had a bit of a breakout, she had a lot of stuff going on with her family, and, in my personal life, I got engaged but you are going to see her come back with flying colours and a ridiculous story.

"It’s worth waiting for."
