Andy Serkis

Having gentle fun at the expense of A-listers without making them look too foolish, Graham Norton's chatshow shtick is the best around. Tonight, with the summer blockbuster season well upon us, he welcomes Mark Wahlberg, promoting Transformers: The Last Knight, Tom Holland of Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Woody Harrelson and Andy Serkis, lately monkeying around in War for the Planet of the Apes. Plus, Alison Moyet performs.

Simon Pegg interview

Simon Pegg chats to us about rom coms, Man Up, writing, Tintin 2, visiting Andy Serkis on The Jungle Book set, directing, and more...

There are few laughs in John Landis's ghoulish historical comedy - perhaps only one proper when Paul Whitehouse stumbles on.

Disappointing, given Pegg's comic flair and a fine cast including Isla Fisher.
