Each episode features Keith (real name Leigh Francis) meeting two celebrities while learning more about their lives and shopping habits.
Meanwhile, viewers have the chance to see how famous faces spend their money, infused with Keith’s comedic interviewing style.
A wide range of guests have appeared on the show including Mel B, Amanda Holden, Olly Murs and Danny Dyer, among others.
Previously, Keith revealed to The Sun’s TV Mag that one of his most surprising conversations with a celebrity guest was with British media personality Francis Bourgeois.
Keith was shocked when he learned the real name of trainspotter and social media personality 23-year-old Francis.
He said: “Like I say about Francis, I just found his passion and excitement for trains really infectious. I loved it.
“There’s people out there, who in their mind have a stereotype of train-spotters or train enthusiasts as Francis kept saying, but he’s not a stereotype at all.
“He’s super cool and I love that he has this perceived geeky hobby or interest that he’s made cool. I think he’s inspired a lot of people to just like what you like.
“But the most revealing thing I found out about Francis is that his real name is Luke!”
News of Shopping with Keith Lemon’s cancellation comes as the comedian has recently seen another of his projects come to an end.
In April, Keith confirmed The Keith and Paddy Picture Show, a parody series starring himself and Paddy McGuinness, had been axed.
Each episode saw the pair attempt to recreate an iconic film, with assistance from a celebrity cast.
The stellar line-up included the likes of Michelle Keegan, Ant and Dec, Louise Redknapp and David Dickinson.
Although the programme was axed in 2019, following the second series, Keith didn’t speak out about it at the time.
The five-part first series saw Keith and Paddy parody Dirty Dancing, Ghostbusters, Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, Jaws and Rocky.
Their second outing included recreations of Grease, Pretty Woman, Top Gun, Jurassic Park and Terminator 2: Judgment Day.
Shopping with Keith Lemon is available to watch on ITVX.
