Ken Cheng and Leila Navabi host CBBC show
Comedians Ken Cheng and Leila Navabi are the hosts of Don't Blame Me, Blame My Brain, a new CBBC series focused around answering science-based questions.
British Comedy Guide, 27th April 2021On the penultimate day of this year's Paralympic Games, Adam Hills, Josh Widdicombe and Alex Brooker bring their japes to an end with an unofficial closing ceremony. So far it's been a warm and inclusive accompaniment to the competition, with the #isitok hashtag leading to some taboo-busting conversation. Tonight they're joined by athletes including swimmer-turned-cyclist Sarah Storey and discus pro Dan Greaves.
Hannah J Davies, The Guardian, 17th September 2016Six months ago, few in the UK had heard of Adam Hills. Probably about the same number of people as were familiar with David Weir and Sarah Storey, in fact. But just as the Paralympics made stars of many British athletes, so it elevated one Australian comedian into the limelight where, following a bidding war from which C4 emerged victorious (he's even delivering the channel's Alternative Christmas Message at 4.20pm on Christmas Day), he looks likely to thrive. After The Last Leg, his acclaimed series during the Paralympics that revived the dread concept of a 'sideways look' at current events (and has one last hurrah at 11.05pm on December 30), Hills recorded this one-off gig at the Lyric in Hammersmith. An established star in his homeland, and not as prone to mine his disability for laughs as you might fear (Hills only has one leg), he's an accomplished comic whose laid-back style disguises a barbed, subversive wit. This should be a treat.
