Jonathan Ross

Jonathan Ross would only have Kim Kardashian as a guest on his show if it was a "quiet week", it has been reported.

The chat show host admits he isn't entirely sure what the Kardashian family do for a living and would prioritise other guests over them - but he would be keen on having Kim's husband Kanye West on for a natter.

"I've had Kanye on and I'd probably have Kim," he explained.

"The Kardashians are a remarkable phenomenon, but it is still quite hard to work out what they actually do.

"I would probably bear in mind that I don't do as many shows per year as I used to, so unless it was a very quiet week, I might not want to go with the Kardashians. I'd maybe still go with Kanye."

Radio Times review

"Aw Daaad," whines Jack Whitehall, as his old man pelts him with saucy anecdotes in this loosely themed Father's Day special. Between the Timothy Lumsden moments, Jack gets an interviewing masterclass from an on-form Jonathan Ross and shares a "Mrs Robinson moment" with Judy (Andy's mum) Murray.

The quality of the gags tails off badly in the second half, but there's a fun visit to BBC Three's The Call Centre, where Whitehall Senior's bluntness comes in handy on the phones. "I'm ringing about how you could save money on your electricity bill. Although the amount involved seems so ludicrously small, I don't know why one's bothering," he remarks. Give that man a job.

Does the world really need another chat show? Decide for yourself as irrepressibly perky comedian Michael McIntyre tries to remind himself to shut up long enough to let his guests get a word in edgeways. Graham Norton, Alan Carr and Jonathan Ross will scarcely be quaking in their boots at McIntyre's opening guest list: Lily Allen, Lord Alan Sugar and Sir Terry Wogan can all be relied on for a jolly anecdote but it's a pretty safe choice for an opening gambit. McIntyre will need something a little edgier if he's going to stand out in a crowded marketplace.
