Romesh Ranganathan

The latest series from Romesh Ranganathan sees the comic debate the key issues of the day alongside a focus group of ordinary Brits and, of course, his mum, who stole the show on his Asian Provocateur travelogue. Not a groundbreaking premise, but his sardonic ways are a draw.

Romesh Ranganathan returns, flanked by Tom Davis and Jessica Knappett, to adjudicate on real disputes. Opening this double bill are a pair of actors fighting over roles such as "Family Member No 13", and two rappers with very mild beef. As a device to set up Ranganathan for cutting comebacks, it is ideal.

Teenage Cancer Trust comedy night 2019 review

Featuring mainstream big-hitter John Bishop, the relatively unknown Susie McCabe and the energetic Seann Walsh and world-weary Romesh Ranganathan, this year's Teenage Cancer Trust benefit at the Royal Albert Hall was a night of gentle, lukewarm 'modern life' comedy, occasionally punctuated by energy and uproar.

After much controversy, it is finally time for this year's edition of the annual fundraiser. The likes of Lenny Henry, Emma Willis and Romesh Ranganathan lead proceedings, with the usual spoofs including a Four Weddings and a Funeral reunion and a return for Bodyguard's DS David Budd. While, as ever, the money goes to worthy causes, the debate around how Comic Relief portrays relations between the UK and developing nations was long overdue - and may well have been taken into account ahead of tonight's telecast.

It needs to improve, but it has done an incredible job when it comes to helping people lead better lives.
