Friday Night with Jonathan Ross — Season 12

15 episodes · Mar 23, 2007

1. Ricky Hatton, Daniel Radcliffe, Thandie Newton, The Good, The Bad & The Queen.
Mar 23, 2007

Ladies and gentlemen: he's back. The suited, wavy-haired cheeky monkey himself Mr Ross, welcomes us to his new series with the distinct possibility of a punch-up. Boxer Ricky Hatton goes toe-to-toe with Jonathan and Thandie Newton will do w…

2. John Travolta, Gareth Gates, Ricky Gervais, Macy Gray.
Mar 30, 2007

Ricky Gervais? On Jonathan's show? That must have taken some serious negotiating - or maybe just a kiss. I'm amazed to see Gareth Gates on the show; I thought he was happy and comfortable in obscurity. I guess he couldn't say no (that's cru…

3. Ursula Andress, Jamie Cullum, Mark Strong, Dynamo, Kings of Leon.
Apr 13, 2007
4. Gilbert & George, Patsy Kensit, Alan Carr, Bryan Ferry.
Apr 20, 2007

A curious mix of guests this week. Artists Gilbert & George who began their careers' in performance art, now better known for their brightly coloured photo-montages. Not my cup of tea to be honest, but they did win the Turner Prize in 1986.…

5. Bill Bailey, Sarah Brightman, Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, Jamie T.
Apr 27, 2007

Bill Bailey is a funny guy, a talented musician and a Klingon nonce. He's on tour - go and see him, shout 'weasels' and hear his reply - 'dormice'! Singer, Sarah Brightman, is set to perform at this year's F.A. Cup final - I think she'll lo…

6. Helena Bonham Carter, Rob Brydon, Greg Rusedski,The View.
May 4, 2007

Rob Brydon stars in a programme called 'Annually Retentive'. Does that mean he can or can not stand next to the piano? If you are drunk whilst watching this episode, that's Helena Bonham Carter - not Robert Smith from The Cure.

7. Fern Britton, Phillip Schofield, Sir Alan Sugar, Rufus Wainwright, Kaiser Chiefs.
May 11, 2007
8. Eddie Izzard, John Barrowman, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Janice Dickinson, Regina Spektor.
May 18, 2007

Evita, Cats, Starlight Express - just three of the musicals written by Andrew Lloyd Webber, that I have no intention of ever going to see. John Barrowman has probably seen all of them at least 83 times. Also appearing tonight in a skirt, Ja…

9. Justin Lee Collins, Freema Agyeman, Ozzy Osbourne.
May 25, 2007

There was a time when Ozzy liked nothing more than to tuck in to a bat's head for a snack, these days he's far happier with a delicious butter substitute. We all mellow with age. I'm worried that Justin Lee Collins will end up as the latest…

10. Bear Grylls, Gordon Ramsay, Tori Spelling, Klaxons.
Jun 1, 2007

I was going to make fun of Bear Grylls because of his name, that was until I discovered that he was in the S.A.S. so I thought better of it. If I made fun of Gordon Ramsay on the other hand, he would probably just call me a ****. (He would…

11. Myleene Klass, Nick Frost, Andy Roddick, My Chemical Romance.
Jun 8, 2007

It's that time of year when the British pretend we like tennis again. Andy Roddick's appearance can only mean the EVIL that is Wimbledon is upon us. Fat women of Britain rejoice and pay £97.32p for two strawberries (you'll need to re-mortga…

12. Shilpa Shetty, Alex James, Rob Lowe, CSS.
Jun 15, 2007

Shilpa Shetty; Bollywood superstar and the recipient of verbal bullying from the Bermondsey Beast, Jade Goody. Funny that, why would a fat, ignorant talentless pig pick on a beautiful, successful actress? Weird. Alex James has lead the typ…

13. Russell Brand, Serena Williams, Iggy & The Stooges.
Jun 22, 2007

Serena Williams is an impressive looking woman: big and strong - all muscle and buttocks. She could easily have puny Russell Brand in a fight. Actually, I reckon she could have him, Iggy Pop and the rest of the Stooges. Jonathan, the audien…

14. Bruce Willis, Fearne Cotton, Pete Doherty, Arcade Fire.
Jun 29, 2007

The combined weight of Fearne Cotton and Pete Doherty tops the scales at a porky 42 kilograms - 43 if they are wet. I doubt they could overpower a fractious kitten or contain an angry wasp. Bruce Willis and I share a birthday; that's about…

15. J.K. Rowling, Bob Hoskins, Gok Wan, Paul Weller & Graham Coxon, The Arctic Monkeys.
Jul 6, 2007

Rarity is the common factor this week; a TV appearance by the Arctic Monkeys which is as rare as a woman who understands the off-side rule, and something that's as rare as hen's toothpaste; an interview with Harry Potter creator J.K. Rowlin…
