Richard Madeley has found himself a new identity on The Circle – a 27-year-old uni dropout called Judy.

The presenter was introduced to the other players on Wednesday night just after Emelle became the first person eliminated from the game.

Declaring his new digs a ‘prison’ as he got used to his old school typewriter and keyboard, the star knew he’d be keeping himself busy by also playing guitar.

He was then given a photo to use to catfish the others chosen by the public, was seen sitting down to figure out his backstory before being added to the group chat.

Deciding that Judy was engaged but ‘broke it off a few months ago’, he framed her as ‘a posh girl who once met a real life astronaut who walked on the moon’.

His profile read: ‘Went to boarding school – hated it – and dropped out of uni after one term. Was born in London and still live there.

‘Claim to fame…once met a real life astronaut who walked on the moon. Had lots of jobs but now health and nutritionist tutor. LOVE IT.’

Satisfied that this was a simple profile he could then elaborate on later, Richard signed it off – and was brought into the gang as the newest member.

However some already think that he might have messed up by making his profile too complicated.

Viewers have to run in tomorrow to see how he gets on.

Emma Willis declared that his temporary stay on the show was to become an ‘agent of chaos’ for the audience at home and will deliberately stir trouble in the group.

The show has already got off to a great start with record numbers on episode one, as more viewers than ever tune in to see the fight for popularity begin.

Players, which include a woman pretending to be her son and a man pretending to be a single mum, now have to fight for their spot with the on-screen personas, real or fake.

The Circle continues weeknights from 10pm on Channel 4.
