This week Tamzin Outhwaite's head is played like a bongo, we learn that Alan Sugar is 30 per cent Canderel, and Vic spits out a bird egg after Bob mallets him in the face. Barmy business as usual, in other words, as the circus of the surreal ends its current run.

It's the left-field material that works best, and Angelos Epithemiou the Shooting Stars scorekeeper (the most pointless job on television) certainly qualifies with a blast from his drum 'n' bass burger kiosk and a spirited little dairy-produce dance.

But it's a lumpy old comedy stew, with jokes from the late Pleistocene period and routines Benny Hill might have turned his nose up at. Bring back George Dawes and his Peanuts song.
