We knew he was ‘never gonna give you up’… now it appears that those lyrics referred to his tireless pursuit of the T-800 Terminator.

For Rick Astley plays the T-1000 killing machine in a remake of Terminator 2: Judgment Day for the next series of The Keith and Paddy Picture Show.

The 1980s superstar said viewers could expect ‘…a mix of Pacino, Di Caprio, De Niro and Pinocchio,’ from his performance on the ITV comedy.

It is one of five episodes in the next series which will be airing from next month, in addition to Keith Lemon and Paddy McGuinness’s take on Gremlins, which will air as a Christmas specia
