Has anyone from Lancashire appeared on it before?

As recently as last year, a 25-year-old Preston man named Gideon Allen appeared on the firth series of Skin A&E with two separate skin problems.

Gideon, who described himself as Preston’s part-time witch went to Dr Toby with two problems – the first being a continously growing mole on his face, named Bob – and the other being nasal scars and blemishes he had picked up from a homophobic attack he suffered on his first ever trip to Glasgow.

Commenting on his time filming Skin A&E, Gideon, who has also appeared on dating shows First Impressions, Celebs Go Dating and Sex Rated, said: “It was the best experience I had on a show, the crew and the production team were just amazing throughout. They were very caring with their words, all my needs were met, I just had a laugh behind the scenes and the medical staff were just great.

“They loved the whole witch attire, I just burst through the clinic doors in my witch cape and I brought a magical twist, so I left them spellbound!”
