Utilising a format similar to the Election Autopsy he performed in 2015, this Frankie Boyle vehicle is launching, rather piquantly, on election night. Boyle will be using a combination of comedy, discussion and audience feedback to reckon with the multiple bewilderments of the current cultural and political moment. Tonight, he'll be joined by guests including Sara Pascoe. Expect insight and probably a dollop or two of righteous offence.

Preview - Dara O Briain's Go 8 Bit

Dave's video game comedy returns for a second series - and it's even managed to spawn a spin-off.

Ian Wolf, On The Box, 15th May 2017

Richard Osman and Sara Pascoe are the celeb joystick-wagglers launching the second series of Dave's arcade thunderdome. This anarchic gameshow has finally cracked how to turn video gaming into a spectator sport by booking enthusiastic guests, adding studio audience interactivity and, crucially, putting game-literate wits O Briain and Ellie Gibson in charge. A new reviews-focused companion show, Go 8 Bit: DLC, follows straight after.

Review: Sara Pascoe: Animal - The Lowry, Salford

Pascoe is a comedian who can talk to her own kin. A mixed audience she certainly strikes more chords with the women in the audience.

British Comedy Guide, 20th March 2017

In a new series billed as "madcap", Harry Hill watches over two teams who have to prove how funny humans are. Yes, really. Kelvin Fletcher, Sara Pascoe, Patrick Robinson and Josh Widdicombe must choose clips to go into a capsule that can be unleashed in the event of an alien invasion. By Hill's own admission it is "an idea that's thinner than Kim Kardashian's nightie", but he holds things together with aplomb.
