Radio Times review

Last week it was judo, this week netball is the sport at which Lee Mack must feign competence, claiming to have been made captain of his (or possibly his wife's) netball team. Could he be pulling off an elaborate double bluff of the kind you occasionally get on this programme, where someone's flailing inability to sound plausible is really a smokescreen to cover the fact they're telling the truth?

Fans of the show will be glad to learn that Bob Mortimer is on Lee's team. Nobody unhitches the game from its moorings so brilliantly, this time with tales of a childhood game he claims to have played called Theft and Shrubbery. Also tonight: three different impressions of Alan Hansen.
