LOCAL actor Keith Allen is set to appear on BBC quiz show, Celebrity Pointless to compete for the jackpot for The Door Youth Project to support local young people and their families.

Harry Gardner, Fundraiser for The Door said: ''We are so pleased to have Keith's support and can't wait to watch the show.

"Being a charity we are largely dependent on donations and support from individuals.''

Contestants on Celebrity Pointless are tasked with finding the most obscure answers to questions.

Alexander Armstrong and Richard Osman present the celebrity version of the general knowledge quiz where competitors have to come up with the answers that nobody else could think of.

Keith Allen is well known for his role as the Sheriff of Nottingham on the BBC drama Robin Hood.

To see how Keith does, tune into BBC on Saturday, May 16.
