Funnyman Lee Mack has admitted to keeping not all, but only the most controversial part of a sex doll he and his team used as a prop on the set of Not Going Out.
Fortunately, he realised how it would be perceived. Unfortunately, he still has it at home…
Lee and his co-star Sally Bretton are not married in real life. Although, funnily enough, Sally’s real-life husband is called Lee. Writer Lee is married to Tara Savage; on-screen Lee is married to Lucy Adams.
Tonight he’s back with The 1% Club (August 16). But first, back to the sex doll…

Lee Mack admits to keeping sex doll’s head
Lee insisted that it was harder than you might think to find a robotic sex doll for use on the set of Not Going Out, despite numerous documentaries about them. The team found one eventually, but not before they tried having an actor wearing a bodysuit and a mask attempt to convincingly perform as one.
Alas, that didn’t work. They could see her breathing…
So in the end, they made one. The actors used it, and it was “brilliant”, Lee said: “It moved its head, it moved its mouth, it moved its eyes. I was in a double act with a sex robot!”
What happened next?
“After filming, I said: ‘Can I keep the head? I don’t want the rumour going around that I insisted on keeping the sex doll… can I just have its head?’” Lee told the Daily Star in June.
“Then I realised, that’s far worse. I don’t want that rumour going around! I’ve got it at home, but the bloody batteries have run out, and its eyes have gone a bit Marty Feldman!”
Oh, Lee…
Not Going Out will return in 2026! (Credit: Would I Lie To You?/YouTube)
