Surely the German Comedy Ambassador will never find a more subtle show title than last year's My Struggle. Well, he'll die trying. Come along. Or else. Deutschland über alles!

In the last year, Henning has been heard numerous times on BBC Radio 4's The Unbelievable Truth, The News Quiz, The Now Show and BBC Radio 5 Live's Fighting Talk. He has also recently presented BBC Radio 4 Specials Monty Python's Fliegender Zirkus! and Erich Honecker's Rock 'n Roll Years. Later this year he records his very own 6 part series for BBC Radio2 and make his first appearance of BBC TV's QI.
