Jason Manford: Missus has forgiven me

One Show host Jason Manford says his pregnant wife forgave him for his Twitter sex shame - after calling him a d***head.

The Sun, 8th November 2010

A repeat of C4's live comedy extravaganza from London's 02 Arena earlier this year in which 23 of our funniest people (and Michael McIntyre) competed to win our laughs in aid of Great Ormond Street Children's Charity. Take your pick from Alan Carr, Noel Fielding, Catherine Tate, Bill Bailey, Mitchell & Webb, Jack Dee, Jack Whitehall, Kevin Eldon, Lee Evans, Rob Brydon, Sean Lock, Jo Brand, Jason Manford, Fonejacker, Andy Parsons and Shappi Khorsandi. Phew.

Jason Manford: I'm expecting fireworks at home!

One Show host Jason Manford last night admitted he faced a rocket from his missus over his Twitter sex shame.

Colin Robertson, The Sun, 6th November 2010

Robert Llewellyn's online show comes to TV. The premise is simplicity itself: Llewellyn drives a guest around in his car and has a nice chat. He picks up comedians Rufus Hound and Jason Manford (who uses this as a money-saving way to get dropped off at his job at The One Show). There's no dangerous driving, and the only tension comes when they wait for a traffic light to change. It's pleasant with no attempt to "sex it up". The opposite, thankfully, of car crash television.

"A chat show in my motor," is how Robert Llewellyn (Red Dwarf) describes his series. A hit on the web, the show now makes its TV debut on Dave. Llewellyn is a pleasant enough chap, sitting behind the wheel of his Toyota Prius, making small talk with his passenger, but is there mileage in their chummy chats? No. The fact that his first guests are The One Show's Jason Manford and comic Rufus Hound says it all.

The Telegraph, 4th November 2010

Some chat show interviews don't go anywhere, but that can't be said of Robert Llewellyn's new talk show. That's because he picks up his interviewees and gives them a lift to wherever they want. How we didn't want to label this Robert Llewellyn's new vehicle. Alas, we're just not that strong. What is fresh, though, is Robert's approach to the chat show, as he gives his guests - who include Jason Manford, Rob Brydon and David Baddiel - a ride to wherever they fancy in return for a natter along the way.

Jason Manford in trouble for Twitter rant

Jason Manford will this week face a dressing down from BBC bosses over his criticism of the corporation.

The News Of The World, 19th September 2010

It shouldn't work but it does: you take natural history films, put silly voices over the animals and edit it into sketches. With input from the likes of Jason Manford, the result is the kind of thoroughly, joyously daft comedy that is custom-made for adults and children to enjoy together, TV Burpstyle, on a Saturday evening. And the hit rate seems to have improved from the last series. There are plenty of splutteringly funny sequences, many involving seals. Highlights include elephants with appalling hangovers and a dolphin doing "head farts" (I didn't say it was sophisticated).
