Les Dennis was quizzed about who he would bring into a film about himself and admitted it couldn’t be done without his first wife Amanda Holden, 52.
The former couple no longer speak following their divorce in 2003, but this wouldn’t stop the 69-year-old from having her in a potential script.
While a guest on Kate Thornton’s White Wine Question Time podcast recently, he was asked: “Who else are your must haves? Your ‘couldn’t have done it without yous?”
He replied: “Well, I suppose Amanda would have to be there.
“It’s a chapter in my life that was huge, and I have no idea who to cast in that role.”
Kate then put forward the idea of having Amanda play the role herself, to which he replied: “Maybe, yes maybe.”
The Britain’s Got Talent judge and Les married when he was 40 and she was 23 in 1995.
Their relationship came to a brief end following her highly publicised affair with Men Behaving Badly star Neil Morrissey.
They briefly rekindled after her infidelity, but went on to end their marriage for good in 2003.
Les has confirmed the pair are not in contact but said he was happy she said nice things about him publicly.
The ex Family Fortunes host told The Times: “Amanda was in the papers recently, saying some nice things about me. That was very kind of her.
“Maybe with time she has been able to look back and see things differently. We’re not in touch but I am happy that she’s happy.”
He continued: “I can watch Britain’s Got Talent without getting angry. To be honest it’s like watching a different person, someone I’ve never met.”
Les went on to say that all the hurt he went through at the time had now been healed.
Both Amanda and Les have since moved on and have respectively remarried.
The Britain’s Got Talent judge has been married to former talent agency director Chris Hughes since 2008.
The pair share two daughters together: Alexa, 17, and Hollie, 11.
Les has been married to Claire Nicholson since 2009 and they have a son and daughter.
