Gavin & Stacey's Joanna Page involved in Twitter spat

A case of mistaken identity saw the animal lover accused of voicing ITV's controversial Super Tiny Animals.

Joanna Page: I hope we'll do a special one day

Gavin & Stacey was so popular that fans last year campaigned for a fourth series. 'I hope we'll do a special one day,' says Joanna Page. 'There's been talk of something next year but it's not for sure.

ITV likes to dust down its An Audience with... format now and again for vintage stars, and few are worthier of an old-fashioned showcase than that purveyor par excellence of the 1970s power ballad, Barry Manilow. On piano and accompanied by his own orchestra, Manilow displays fine pipes as he opens tonight's show with a rousing rendition of Could It Be Magic. He hits the high notes and emotive key changes with reasonable ease and swivels his hips impressively through Copacabana. Best glossed over are two songs from his new album and the well-rehearsed answers to soft questions lobbed from the audience, but overall his performance is as smooth as his peculiarly boyish forehead.

That's not to say it's superficial - Manilow still sings with an emotional sincerity that excites the tear ducts and brings the audience to its feet. Among the famous "Fanilows" in the audience are actress Keeley Hawes and Gavin & Stacey star Joanna Page, performers who were surely babes in arms when Tony first sailed across the bar to rescue Lola the showgirl. It proves that ITV isn't just tapping into the cheesy nostalgia factor with Manilow - he really does write songs that make the whole world sing.

Joanna Page takes to the skies for Comic Relief

By night, Joanna Page is treading the boards but by day she's revealed herself to be a bit of a daredevil.

And welcome, for example, to a special Christmas Shooting Stars (BBC2). No, I don't know what that "for example" is doing there either, but that's what Bob Mortimer says - and it's funny. Shooting Stars is about the baffling, the surreal, the unexpected and the unbelievably silly. This festive episode begins with a hanging (of a mouse) and ends with a race (between Ricky Tomlinson and Ronnie Wood, on mobility scooters). In between is half an hour of the usual lunacy.

Bob is impaled, up the arse, on the end of of Vic's electric guitar; Walter Hottle Bottle jumps in slow motion; Ulrikakaka downs a pint of Advocaat in one, then burps loudly; Jack Dee has a face like an abandoned winkle-picker, or a willy warmer with mouse droppings all over it; Joanna Page is Welsh and pronounces words funny; Thandie Newton is pestered by Bob; Angelous has been hiding in the trees outside Ulrikakaka's bedroom; the Christmas tree catches fire; a stuffed buzzard loses its confidence when a cocktail is thrown in its face; Ricky rides a rocking horse while eating chicken drumsticks.

And there are some fiendishly difficult questions. Like: true or false, muesli is a byproduct of coffin-making? (true). And will bacon stick to Bob's face? (Yes). And what's the latest Ron ever stayed up? (Very).

I'm still not convinced it was a good idea to bring back Shooting Stars. It was a show that fitted so perfectly into the 1990s, like Seinfeld and Britpop. But this Christmas special was a party.

The lovable, manic hosts of the revived 90s panel show are doing their bit to promote festive cheer. How? By presenting a special episode. They're on fire. And so is the studio Christmas tree, thanks to Bob's dodgy wiring job. In other hot stuff news, booked guests include Hollywood beauty Thandie Newton. She's likely to be the first choice recipient of Vic Reeves's lady fawning, but Gavin & Stacey star Joanna Page serves as a useful backup. And there are male guests, too: Ricky Tomlinson and pineapple-haired Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood. In the final challenge, Ronnie and Ricky race. That has to be worth a look. Also tonight, expect sketches from the folk duo Mulligan and O'Hare, and a visit from the people's scorekeeper, Angelos Epithemiou.
