James Corden injures knee

James Corden's stint on the West End stage has been thrown into jeopardy again after the star injured his knee.

The Daily Express, 5th July 2011

This quirky new panel show is based on a format originally created by Jerry Seinfeld, who apparently came up with the idea after persuading a friend to referee during a row with his wife. Unfortunately for him the show initially got withering reviews in America, although it attracted enough viewers to be filed under "cult viewing". Maybe it'll do better on this side of the pond. The idea is that the opinionated panellists (among them Jonathan Ross, James Corden and Sarah Millican) listen to the marital tiffs of real couples, then offer their hopefully amusing opinions before judging who's in the right. The sort of spats they'll pronounce on are whether a wife loves her cat more than her husband (probably) and whether a woman's demand that her hubbie give up skateboarding and grow up is fair (definitely). Ever-amiable host Dermot O'Leary has already tweeted: "Jeremy Kyle punters need not apply."
