Model and TV presenter Kelly Brook has appeared with her co-stars ahead of her West End stage debut in the hit play Fat Pig.

Brook will play Jeannie in Neil LaBute's play at the Comedy Theatre in London, from Monday October 13.

She joins Kevin Bishop (Carter), Nicholas Burns (Tom) and Ella Smith (Helen) in the transfer of the play.

Fat Pig opened at the Trafalgar Studios in May this year and played to sell-out audiences, creating the demand for its transfer to the Comedy Theatre.

The role of Jeannie is being played by Gavin and Stacey's Joanna Page, who will continue to star until Saturday October 11.

Brook, who recently took part in BBC1's Strictly Come Dancing, has appeared on stage previously in Eye Contact at the Riverside Studios in London and her films include The Italian Job and Sorted.

Fat Pig sees an instant connection between Tom and Helen, a bright, funny, sexy young woman who happens to be plus-sized.

It is only a matter of time before the insults start to fly from Tom's shallow office pals.

Tickets are available now.
