Meanwhile, a top team from GCHQ are staking out a couple in a pub, but even a spy's son should be able to make his own decisions.

Dame Judi Dench at the awards

Dame Judi Dench gets the first award, but it's going to be a long evening. How will the national treasure amuse herself?

Featuring: Tracey Ullman, Dan Skinner, James Fleet & Luke Kempner.

Press

Although as mixed as you'd expect from a sketch show, Tracey Ullman's return to UK screens for her second series has been better than cynics might have expected. Her character acting makes up for some occasionally off-beam sketches. Tonight, we see her star in the world's worst show 30 Years In A Morgue, her Camilla Parker-Bowles does a spot of babysitting while her uncanny Judi Dench is bored at an awards ceremony.

Preview: Tracey Ullman's Show

It was a bit of a surprise to see Tracey Ullman back on British TV with her own show after so many years in the US and this series has had its moments with some superbly iconoclastic send ups including Dame Maggie Smith, German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
