Tom Daley

Press clippings

Forty-five minutes of high spirits in front of a rowdy audience - Play To The Whistle isn't so much a sport quiz as a chimps' tea party hosted by Holly Willoughby. Team captains Bradley Walsh and Frank Lampard attempt to keep things steady, while Romesh Ranganathan supplies banter. The show distinguishes itself, however, with the inclusion of physical games, which add an element of surprise. Diver Tom Daley and career panellist Richard Osman are tonight's guests.

Radio Times review

When Ross has a gathering of guests as good as tonight's, you wish his format allowed them to intermingle out front in the way Graham Norton's guests do. What would Paul Merton say to Paul Hollywood, for instance? Is Keira Knightley much of a baker? Also, after Ross's coup interviewing Tom Daley earlier in the year, he welcomes another gay sporting hero, Welsh rugby player Gareth Thomas.

Zoe Lyons: Champion mustard cutter

Long-term ThreeWeeks favourite Zoe Lyons is back at the Fringe this year with a brand new show called Mustard Cutter, an hour of quality stand-up promising to cover everything "from pan pipes to the price of lobster". Meanwhile, elsewhere in the Gilded Balloon castle, you'll find her appearing in 'Outings', a new show inspired by the YouTube phenomenon that was Tom Daley's 'coming out' statement last year, exploring the real-life coming out stories of various other gay men and women.

Jonathan Ross judges Tom Daley interview to perfection

Adam Hills was one of the Paralympics' more unlikely stars, widely praised for his comic yet pointed take on the Games. So much so that this new series sees him being offered the chance to widen his brief: tonight, he'll return alongside regular sidekicks Josh Widdicombe and Alex Brooker to cast his eye over the last seven days of news. Expect regular updates, too, on Brooker's quest to participate in the Rio Paralympics. Well, as Games aftermaths go, it'll surely have more to recommend it than Tom Daley's Splash - Idris Elba, for one, who is the guest for tonight's opening edition.
