Mock the week returns to our screens tonight at 9.00 on TLC. Good show. Worth a watch. Starts in 18 mins-sorry for the short notice!
In a week of sad losses farewell to Dennis Law, one of the all-time greats and a childhood hero of mine. I have a photo of me with Dennis and George Best on the set of Clive Anderson talks back. It’s as happy as I can look. A wonderful player and a wonderful guy. RIP Dennis.
So sad to hear about the terribly early passing of Tony Slattery. He was one of the nicest, kindest, cleverest and funniest people I ever had the privilege to work with. In his day the camera loved him and he was right up there with the best of them. RIP Tony.
Just finished watching Our Friends In The North for the second time. Absolutely marvellous! If there has ever been a more powerful, moving , gripping tv drama I don’t know what it is.
The history of mock the week part 2 on now. The very last of this iteration. Hope you enjoy it, huge thanks to everyone involved, and hope to see you again sometime!
Last mock the week tonight on bbc2 at 10.00 would you believe? Got a bit of everything tonight. Hope you enjoy it.
Just listened to tubby the tuba by Danny Kaye for the first time since I was a kid. Not sure if I realised at the time how beautiful and imaginative it was.
New mock the week starting in 10 mins on bbc 2. That’s 10.00 on bbc2 for those who come to this tweet late. Really lovely line up tonight. Hope you enjoy it!
Mock the week tonight at 10.00 bbc 2. Wonderful cast including the returning James Acaster and nish Kumar. Really great show. Hope you enjoy it!!
First episode of our last series of mock the week tonight at 10.00 bbc2 . A really good show in a difficult week. Great cast. But don’t take my word for it-judge for yourselves! Hope you enjoy it!
It’s been announced that the next series of Mock the Week will be the last after 17 great years on the BBC. Desperately disappointing but hopefully we will resurface again soon. Huge thanks to Dara and Hugh and all the wonderful performers over the years. It’s been a privilege.
Sorry to hear about the sad passing of Bernard cribbins. One of my first ever gigs was helping organise children in need for bbc radio in 1987. Got Bernard cribbins to do Right Said Fred. What a lovely talented man he was. Will be missed. Rip Bernard.

These two buskers are friends of mine, Jo Brookes, an eminent radiologist, and @1DanPatterson, the producer of Mock The Week. And no, I certainly did *not* use the phrase mid-life crisis.
