Question: What is UK TV personality Keith Lemons real name?

Answer: Keith Lemon is a comedy character played by the 40 year old British entertainer Leigh Francis.

Though most famous these days for appearing in various ITV shows as Keith, Leigh Francis has played many different characters over the years including Avid Merrion, Mel B, Craig David and The Bear who once featured in his Channel 4 show Bo’ Selecta.

More recently Lemon has become Francis’ main focus, playing the role in such shows as ITV2’s Celebrity Juice and ITV1’s Through The Keyhole.

Some television viewers in the UK have become so used to watching shows hosted by Keith, they’ve begun to forget he’s actually a character and not a real person.
