Chris Packham

Observational comedian Sarah Millican has been a regular face on panel shows ever since she won acclaim for her Edinburgh Festival show in 2009. Now she gets her own star vehicle. Millican performs trademark warm but sharp monologues about what's on TV, and chats to stars from the small screen. First up, on the themes of wildlife and dating, she's joined by naturalist Chris Packham and "sexpert" Tracey Cox.

The exemplary standup gets her own show. It's part monologue, part chat about things she likes watching on TV, with the relevant bods joining her for, as Partridge put it, sofa-based chat. Tonight's focus is on wildlife and dating shows, and her guests are Chris Packham and "sexpert" Tracey Cox. With her warmth, citrus tongue and some seriously filthy mime skills, this is going to be fun.

The best bits are generally not the guests railing against things they hate - insurance adverts, parrots, and so on. The best bits are when host Frank Skinner disagrees or tries to win them over. Tonight he comes to the defence of reality TV stars, Chris Moyles ("I see him as a cheeky Jabba the Hutt") and Jedward. The finest moment comes when guest Alice Cooper tries to condemn balloon sculptures and our host introduces a man with a riposte so jaw-droppingly impressive, even Cooper has to bow in mock-worship.

Also airing his peeves is Chris Packham, revealing an unexpected resentment - in the series' broadest swipe yet - of the entire human race.

We've been enjoying the funny and impassioned banter this rebooted panel show has prompted. It's in fine fettle again tonight as Alice Cooper rants about reality TV shows, Chris Tarrant bemoans Jedward and Chris Packham shakes his head in despair over his loathing of Chris Moyles, who he describes as 'a totemic figure for the celebration of mediocrity and ignorance'.

Another chance for celebrities to whinge on national television. The new format of this comedy talk show, back after a five-year hiatus, sees three guests putting their gripes to Frank Skinner. The programme has done away with the easy banter and intimacy of previous series. But the gags keep coming, and this week's guests are certainly an eclectic mix: rock god Alice Cooper, TV presenter Chris Tarrant and Springwatch presenter Chris Packham.

If you thought The Social Network told the definitive story of the birth of Facebook, Vic and Bob have other ideas.

Their film about Facebook's little-known roots in the 1970s is the highlight of another ­unpredictably mental half-hour.

On the receiving end of their surreal ribbing/bullying tonight are Waterloo Road's Mark Benton, the Mirror's own Tess Daly, Chris Packham and the fashionable Alexa Chung.

Conservationist Packham goes along with the joke - even after resident weirdo Angelos ­Epithemiou does ­something very unexpected to a robin.

Even team captain Jack Dee cracks a smile.

But poor Alexa looks like she wishes she'd stayed at home.

She might as well have done too - her contribution here is purely a decorative one.

The smart adult puppet show gets even more post-modern when Beeb stablemate Springwatch starts filming on the Isle of Dogs and urban fox Nelson is shocked to discover that all the animals are, in fact, actors. There are even knowing cameos from Terry Nutkins and Chris Packham. Meanwhile, "It-bitch" Destiny tries guide-dogging and Kali the pigeon admits that she used to nest in Amy Winehouse's hair.
