Comedian Jason Manford has revealed he wears odour control pants so no-one can smell his farts.
The TV host says he was forced to sport the special flatulence-filter undies by members of his family – including his children – as they were fed up of his “smelly” antics.
Jason, 38, who has admitted in the past to suffering from wind, joked: “The pants come in really handy. My kids actually bought me a pair for Christmas. They work well.”
He has hinted at his gas-breaking habit before.
In 2012 he wrote to fans on Facebook: “Who thinks farts are NOT funny? If so please say so here so I can delete you from my Facebook page, you are no longer welcome!”

In 2014 he tweeted: “Will @Gaviscon stop farts? Asking for a friend.”
Last month he posted a funny video on YouTube after teaching his Alexa virtual assistant to break wind.
On camera, the comedian ordered:: “Alexa, do a large fart.”

The machine produced a flatulent sound then said in her distinctive voice: “That was a very eggy one. Try asking me for a random fart or trying asking for a 30-second fart countdown.”
Alexa goes on to produce a huge farting noise.
Manford recently revealed he is unsure if his BBC One game show First & Last will return for a second series.
He said: “I don’t know if any telly is coming back ever! It would be ironic if it ended up being the ‘First & Last’ series.”

Jason recently revealed that he had landed a job driving old age pensioners to doctor’s appointments after he was rejected by Tesco.
After his theatre tour was cancelled due to the coronavirus lockdown, the comedian made the decision to spend his time volunteering.
This was after he had applied for a job with supermarket giant, Tesco in the leafy Cheshire village of Wilmslow.
However, his application was rejected leaving Jason “livid”.
Taking to Twitter, he said: “Absolutely livid @Tesco. I was only trying to do my bit. I hope the better person got and enjoys the job, I’ll be watching.”
He was later offered a job by the frozen supermarket, Iceland, who said their “door is always open”.
