New show in which Sally Phillips invites comedians to talk about their favourite sketches and re-enact one, too. First up is Paul Whitehouse, choosing Python's Argument Sketch, Kathy Burke channelling Liam Gallagher in Kevin and Perry, and the late, great Felix Dexter in Bellamy's People. A pure joy.

Nothing says Christmas like a fusillade of puns. Happily, that's just what Tim Vine - travelling not just in time with this show, but all the way from radioland - has got in store for us. In what is essentially Mr Benn but with nearly real people such as Emma Bunton, Tim travels from his antiques shop to Tudor England, where he lands a role as Henry VIII's jester. Appearances also from Sally Phillips and Rev Richard Coles.
