TV review: The Undiscovered Peter Cook, BBC4

It's the kind of scoop every journalist/documentarist dreams of. Getting access to hitherto unseen archives of someone dead and famous. And that is exactly what Victor Lewis-Smith landed when Peter Cook's widow Lin allowed him to rummage through Cook's personal possessions in his Hampstead mews home that hadn't been touched since his death in 1995. The results have been painstakingly cherry picked and put together to produce this fascinating doc on a man who has already had umpteen fascinating docs made about him.

Elsewhere, there's a pretty hapless, Batman-esque vigilante in town - The Bird - followed around by his unwanted but far more effective sidekick The Bee, while Debbie seizes a chance to clear her name.

QI: Toksvig triumphs in her first appearance as host

Does the series have a future with Toksvig as host? Indubitably - a word we probably first heard used in a sentence on QI.
