Little Britain star David Walliams refuses to dye his hair because he “does not want to end up like Jimmy Carr”.

The former BGT judge claims his hairdresser asked if he wanted a touch-up on his barnet as it was starting to go grey.

But he said: “Someone offered to dye my hair the other day and I thought ‘That is a slippery slope’ isn’t it?

“Dyeing your hair and then dyeing your beard, it is so weird’.

“A lady hairdresser said ‘Oh do you want me to put some dye in?’ and I was like ‘No because it is a slippery slope’.

“You end up like Jimmy Carr.”

His bald TV pal Matt Lucas said that if he had hair, he would love long curly locks like Brian May from Queen or a mullet like 1980s Arsenal player Charlie Nicholas.

Meanwhile Lucas has admitted that as a schoolboy he stole from a charity box to buy chocolate bars.

The comedian says – looking back on his younger days – that it was a terrible thing to do.

He said: “I was eleven and I was in my first year at secondary school and they made me the charity monitor.

“And I had a little brown pencil case and I would collect money for charity and I reckon I took about a fiver out of it across the year to go to the tuck shop and buy Star Bars.

“I cannot remember what charity it was. This is terrible and I don’t come out well at all.”

Lucas confesses all on the duo’s Making A Scene Podcast.

Walliams tells him: “So you stole from charity! Clearly it was just for you a money making scheme.”
