Redknapp red-faced at synchronised swimming routine

A League Of Their Own host James Corden says a stunt on his latest show was so embarrassing that Jamie Redknapp brought in a sick note from his MUM.

Jimmy Carr becomes a stumble driver for ALOTO

Jimmy Carr looks like he's had enough of running at full pelt on a giant treadmill - after taking a tumble. The comedian is forced to run 60 metres inside a "Stumble Driver" that looks like a hamster wheel.

Jack Whitehall has a scream as his clothes fly off

Jack Whitehall has a scream as his clothes fly off while he's attempting a simulated wing-walk.

After running, rowing and cycling his way from Paris to London in aid of Sport Relief, it's back to the day job for John Bishop tonight as he takes a guest turn on the opening episode of Sky's popular panel show. Alongside master of ceremonies James Corden, he's an ever-present source of the type of free-flowing sporting banter that's made the show one of the broadcaster's top performers.

The addition of Jack Whitehall, who replaces F1-bound Georgie Thompson as a regular panellist, is another shot in the arm for a series that's fast becoming essential viewing for sports fans and phobics alike.

John Bishop & Jamie Redknapp go diving with Tom Daley

He may be less than half their age but Tom Daley played the role of teacher when he passed on some of his expert diving knowledge to footballer Jamie Redknapp and comedian John Bishop.

The makers of A League Of Their Own have got the title spot on. It stands alone, and seems proud to do so, as the crudest, crassest, most depressing programme on TV, although I haven't watched BBC Three recently so stand to be corrected. On last week's show there were jokes - using the term in same sense that Jedward call themselves singers - about giving Arsène Wenger oral sex, giggling about men kissing, Heather Mills having one leg and a comedian shouting "fucking posh fish" at a tank of fish (as opposed to randomly turning on the underwater upper classes).

There is another problem with the show. It's rubbish. Here's a joke from James Corden on what Phil Taylor likes to have for dinner: "Double eggs, treble chips then finish on a double ice cream." "I'm only joking," said Corden, helpfully, at one point. Corden appears to be turning into Ricky Gervais playing James Corden. Maybe the whole thing is a Corden in-joke, The Office of the comedy quiz world. There has to be something to explain its excruciating awfulness.
