Seth Rogen

Simon Pegg and Nick Frost make a fine pair of sci-fi nerds. They play Brits in San Diego for a convention and general UFO spotting, and guess what: they find an actual alien. Paul, who looks like ET, has the voice of Seth Rogen and eats live birds. With the feds after him, the three embark on a wacky, often funny, Winnebago tour of sci-fi movie cliches.

Radio Times review

It's men-only on Graham's guest list this evening as Joey from Friends (aka Matt LeBlanc) cosies up alongside Seth Rogen and Zac Efron who are in the UK to promote their new film Bad Neighbours.

Coincidentally, Le Blanc and Efron appeared on the show together in 2012 when there was much joshing about the High School Musical star's schmaltzy film choices. However, with reports suggesting that Efron has some issues with sobriety, it will be interesting to see whether Norton broaches the subject and explores the now commonplace transition from wholesome Disney star to troubled adult actor.

Ahead of Nick Frost shimmying on to the big screen in Cuban Fury, this is a reminder of how we came to love him: his double act with Simon Pegg.

Clearly aimed at 'breaking the States', it sees two girlfriendless geeks (Frost and Pegg) embark on a US road trip to Area 51.

Here they meet Paul (voiced by Seth Rogen), a potty-mouthed, dope-smoking alien who crash-landed on Earth and is now on the run from the US government's men in black.

A winning mix of fart gags and feel-good humour, with Kristen Wiig (Bridesmaids) giving the token female love interest role some memorable oompf as a one-eyed Christian fundamentalist.
