Lee Mack is ‘terrified’ about compering the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Concert

LEE Mack is “terrified” about compering the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Concert.

The Not Going Out star fears he’ll turn the air blue by inadvertently swearing in front of Her Majesty at the bash outside Buckingham Palace on Monday.

Lee told Radio 2: “Comedians, including myself, Miranda Hart and Rob Brydon have foolishly agreed to link big names like Paul McCartney and Elton John by doing comedy.

“I’m genuinely terrified.

“Why would you do that in front of the Queen? And it’s worldwide.

“I go through the list of reasons in my head and there’s not one redeeming feature.”

He added: “It’s not usual to do gigs in front of the Royal Family.

“I’ve done it â€" I’ve done the Royal Variety Show â€" but there’s always that voice in the back of your head saying, ‘Don’t swear, don’t swear,’ and that makes you want to swear.”
