Gary Barlow took Jane McDonald on a trip to South Africa for his brand new show and the singer stunned her Instagram followers with a series of behind-the-scenes snap.

The multi-platinum Take That star is at the helm of a five-part series titled Gary Barlow’s Wine Tour South Africa, airing for the first time this Monday, November 11, on ITV. In this new programme, the 53-year-old began his journey on the Western Cape of South Africa, exploring vineyards and learning about different variety of grapes.

Singer and Loose Women star Jane McDonald is one of the celebrities who agreed to join him for an episode due to be aired this Thursday (November 14) and, in a post shared on her Instagram this Monday, the 61-year-old revealed a glimpse of what she’d been up to while filming with Gary Barlow.

In one snap, the pair are beaming as they enjoy some downtime in the sunshine. The Wakefield-born singer can be seen dressed in a bright orange swimsuit, finishing off the outfit with a matching printed kaftan and a pair of white shorts. Jane added some finishing touches to her look with a pair of black cat eye sunglasses and a silver necklace, her hair loose on her shoulders.

Taking to the caption, Jane wrote: “Not to be missed!!! @officialgarybarlow’s new series, Gary Barlow’s Wine Tour South Africa begins today at 2pm on @ITV. I’ll be joining Gary for episode 4 (this Thursday, Nov 14th at 2pm on ITV), as we head north to Skukuza in the Kruger National Park. @rockoystermedia @talent4media.”

Many of Jane’s 238k followers jumped on to the comment section, excited for her upcoming TV appearance. One wrote: “This sounds really interesting- I will make sure that I watch. South Africa is a country on a different level – so amazing.” Another added: “I can’t wait to see this.” A third, however, struggled to recognise Gary Barlow in the post: “Did not recognise @officialgarybarlow thought it was your new fella.”

Back in September, cruising expert Jane made candid revelations about her personal life, admitting she was living with someone, her long-term friend Sue Ravey, following the death of her partner of 15 years, Eddie Rothe. Speaking to Lorraine at the time, she said: “It’s the best thing ever. She’s a great cook, she does my hair and make-up. She puts the bins out! You know, what more could I want? And she’s absolutely hilarious.”

Sue gave Lorraine and Jane a wave from backstage, as Lorraine commented: “How lovely to have that, because despite your successes and all the amazing things you do, you don’t want to go back to an empty house.” Jane agreed: “No you don’t. Speaking of the house, it’s too big. We have this huge house that all we do is clean, and my nails can’t take it, Lorraine! So I think we’re going to downsize now, we’re looking forward to that.”
