Harry Enfield, Jo Brand and Julian Clary will be amongst those joining Ben Elton on stage for Channel 4's one-off revival of Friday Night Live.

The special, which is due to be broadcast later this month, will also feature Rosie Jones, Mawaan Rizwan, Jordan Gray, Ronni Ancona and Sam Campbell.

Producers say the guests will be "giving us a mixture of topical sketches and incredible stand-up". They've also confirmed there will be live music courtesy of Mercury Prize nominee Self Esteem.

The network comments: "Some of the biggest names in comedy are confirmed to be taking part in Channel 4's special edition of Friday Night Live later this month.

"The legendary comedy show ran from 1985 to 1988 and launched a plethora of world-class comedy talent. And now, for one night only, Ben Elton is back as ringmaster to reunite the game-changing architects of anarchy who broke through in the 80s and blend their ground-breaking comedy exploits with today's trailblazers currently storming the circuit."

Friday Night Live will be broadcast on Friday 21st October from 9pm to 10:30pm, and marks the star of Channel 4's Truth and Dare season, a series of programming to tie in with Channel 4's anniversary and mark "40 years of pushing boundaries in every genre".
