Brendan O'Carroll's Irish mammy has bossed her way through radio plays, novels, stage shows, an unstoppable sitcom and a movie. So deploying her as a Saturday night chatshow host welcoming celebs into the Brown family lounge - a place where the fourth wall is regularly demolished - doesn't actually seem that weird. Pop prophet Louis Walsh, tennis matriarch Judy Murray and a presumably bemused Pamela Anderson are the first guests.

All Round to Mrs Brown's - review

Brendan O'Carroll agnostics will decry further airtime for the comedian as yet another indication that humanity has outlived its usefulness. But, in addition to a dirty mind, All Round to Mrs Brown's had a big heart and that made it just about tolerable.

Love it or hate it, there is still at least one positive to take from it: it can't be any worse than The Nightly Show.
