The Now Show

Series 31, Episode 3

It's been a comfortably nostalgic week in some ways; the Tories cutting back benefits, America arresting Russian spies and England losing to Germany at football. Still, The Now Show team have written a fresh clutch of 2010 jokes, Susan Calman tackles the EU ruling that would ban the sale of eggs by the dozen, Mitch Benn serenades us with songs about peace prizes and raging Libertarianism and poor Jon Holmes has been in a horrific paddling accident.

Friday Night With Jonathan Ross

Series 18, Episode 23 - Robin Williams, Elle Macpherson, Tim Minchin, Mark Ronson

If you want an Australian to make you laugh, there are two options: the first is to watch Tim Minchin who joins Jonathan tonight. The other is to watch their cricket team trying to beat England - hours of hilarity! Elle Macpherson is also Australian and easier on the eye than Ricky Ponting. Robin Williams and Mark Ronson add a boomerang-free flavour to the proceedings.
