Jacob Rees-Mogg's 'Kardashian-style' documentary set to air | The Daily T Podcast

In recent years, politicians appearing in reality TV shows has become something of a trend - think Matt Hancock and Nigel Farage on I'm a Celebrity, Ed Balls on Strictly, or Penny Mordaunt on Splash!

The latest to join their ranks is former cabinet minister Jacob Rees Mogg, who earlier this year let cameras into his 17th century stately home in Somerset, where he lives with his wife and six children.

Jacob joins Camilla and Kamal over breakfast in the Daily Tea studio, to discuss how his children felt about appearing on the series, whether reality TV can really help a politician get out a message, and which TV shows he's inclined to binge (the answers may surprise you).

Meet the Rees-Moggs streams from 2nd December exclusively on discovery+

I love them. Hilarious, eccentric, intelligent, pompous, adorable and thoroughly old fashioned British.

[lynclarke]

I adore Jacob. Can’t wait to watch the reality show. He’s such a gentleman in every situation.

[EmmelinePinkhurst]

I have met him and his lovely wife and they were absolutely delightful.

[susanyates]

Lovely man, so eloquent., speaks sense. Great interview, and I loved the quiz.

[mair]

Jacob is the most decent politician. His wife and family are a delight. I have enjoyed the series

[Broomehall]

An eccentric and privileged english family ( which they are well aware of ) but Great Britain wouldn't be Britain without this type of family I like them, and although they may seem strange and outdated to some, they at least have impeccable manners and courtesy, something lacking in todays society, and for that alone I applaud them.

[markwilson]

His values are from an era when this was a great country. It's nice to be reminded of what we were, it is all we now have.

[patriciafrost]

Enjoyed the interview. I have a great admiration for Jacob Rees Mogg, I find him intelligent in debate and likeable in personality.

[colinsandford]

Many years ago when Jacob unsuccessfully stood as a candidate for the Wrekin I briefly met him and he is a very witty nice bloke.

[mfecanegukurahundi]

What an amazing Man. I had the privilege to meet him and have a long chat. He is loved by the Working class as he has the common touch and loves his people and Country.

[jonathanrotem]

He is so charming in his old fashioned way

[natl]

What a lovely interview. Respectful and nicely paced. A lot of other interviewers would learn from this. Instead of a full blown ignorant attack on someone to get ratings. Very nicely done.

[rikkiharcourt]

Regardless of JRM’s politics he really has the look and bearing of a prime minister. If he were I don’t thick, for one moment, he would break the bond with our pensioners that they would allow the government use their pension money without interest in exchange for cash at the end of our working lives for however long needed. He is no lily livered PM like our prescient guy who appears highly suspect. I like him.

[anitaitisanita]

This is who I would vote for for PM, and have declared this choice before Boris was ever candidate. Impeccable integrity. Answers to a Higher Order. J'adore our JRM

[christinedakin-fwii]

Agree he would make a great prim minster

[VampExpress]

My not so secret crush! what is not to love about JRM! I am so looking forward to meeting his family.What a treat!

[susie]

Lovely man, a great national treasure😊

[tomward]

Yes he might be privileged and wealthy. AT least he is doing something positive with his time and money. Many unprivileged leech off everyone else. He is a gentleman and always polite to his guests on GB news unlike other interviewers. I hope he goes over to REFORM

[brocktoon]

This is bloody hilarious. I want to see this!

[florence]

I pray 🙏 Jacob is Voted 🗳️ back in & wins back his well deserved seat in parliament. He would make an amazing & an honest Prime Minister . 💞🐨🐨🦘
