In the show, celebrities go head-to-head lip-syncing a song of their choice in a battle for the coolest bragging rights.

Carol proves she has “all the right junk in all the right places” when she spices up her performance of Meghan Trainor’s All About That Bass.

But Carol ups the ante, giving the Spandau Ballet star a ‘True’ (geddit?) lesson in one-upmanship by performing the New Romantic band’s smash hit Gold.

Martin counters with Gangsta’s Paradise by Coolio.
