Friday Night with Jonathan Ross — Season 13

16 episodes · Sep 7, 2007

1. Keira Knightley, Simon Pegg, Adam Sandler, The Polyphonic Spree.
Sep 7, 2007

It seems like just 63 days since Jonathan was talking to J.K. Rowling. Either that, or I can't count. However long it was, the wait is over - he's back. To kick things off, there is a rare interview with Keira Knightley who, incidentally, w…

2. Trinny & Susannah, Samuel L. Jackson, Quentin Tarantino, KT Tunstall.
Sep 14, 2007

This week's guests: a director who's films I don't really like; an actor who's films I don't watch; two women who make television programmes for badly dressed frumpy lasses and some Scottish warbler who's music gives me the staggers. Apart …

3. Dame Helen Mirren, Richard Hammond Christian Slater, The Hives.
Sep 21, 2007

There's a 'Hair Off' this week: Richard Hammond - the indestructible one from Top Gear, brings his new, flowing locks to compete with Jonathan's luscious mane. Dame Helen Mirren's naturally girly hair might not be enough to secure victory, …

4. Michael Ball, Jamie Foxx, Beth Ditto, Peter Björn & John.
Sep 28, 2007

Four weeks into the new series and the guest list shows signs of strain, and that's not just down to Beth Ditto's bulk. Peter Björn & John are described as "Swedish folk rockers" - is it just me, or does that sound like a cue to stuff your …

5. Michelle Pfeiffer, Ewan McGregor, Charlie Boorman, Chris Moyles, Roisin Murphy.
Oct 5, 2007

Mother Nature is either very creative, or she's got a blinding sense of humour. How else could you explain the effortless beauty of Michelle Pfeiffer and the unconstrained ugliness of Chris Moyles? Maybe she created him with the left-overs …

6. Jools Holland, Jake Gyllenhaal, Katie and Peter, Richard Hawley.
Oct 12, 2007

If Katie Price's self-importance was flammable and caught fire, it would be the Great Fire of London all over again. If her talent was flammable and caught fire, it would be like a damp banger going off. Peter Andre appears tonight - he's m…

7. Peter Serafinowicz, Terry Wogan, Kelly Smith, Take That.
Oct 19, 2007

Kelly Smith, who is brilliant and will probably be the next Queen of England, appears tonight in all her shimmering glory. She will be talking about Women's Football which is absolutely excellent entertainment.

8. Heston Blumenthal, Penny Lancaster, Kelly Brook, Cate Blanchett, Duran Duran.
Oct 26, 2007

Heston Blumenthal has been described as a "culinary alchemist". This is a rather grand way of saying he makes porridge from snails. Kelly Brook is the latest celebrity to put her name to a perfume, sadly, the name 'Smelly Brook' was discar…

9. Gordon Ramsay, Ruth Jones, James Corden, Girls Aloud, Alicia Keys.
Nov 2, 2007

Gordon Ramsay has more Michelin stars than any other chef, most of which have to be used to censor the swear words he uses. ****, for example.

10. Sir Anthony Hopkins, Jimmy Carr, Katy Brand, Foo Fighters.
Nov 9, 2007

Proud Welshman Sir Anthony Hopkins - who is now an American citizen - makes his first appearance on the show. Jimmy Carr, who just seems to be very proud of himself in general, makes what seems to be his 400th appearance.

11. Daniel Craig, Jack Dee, Russell Brand, Hard Fi.
Nov 23, 2007

Daniel Craig – the blond Bond; Russell Brand – the pseudo-Dickensian Cockney urchin and Jack Dee – the grumpy one who is second only to Ricky Gervais in appearances on the show.

12. Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, The Mighty Boosh, Boyzone, Kate Nash.
Nov 30, 2007

"Fighting in the Dojo, Miso Miso Oriental Prince in the land of soup". Fans of the Boosh will understand that, other people might just be greatly disturbed. Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, a man who has cooked pretty much everything on televi…

13. Jeremy Clarkson, Renée Zellweger, Jerry Seinfeld, Matt Lucas, David Walliams, Adele.
Dec 7, 2007

Quite a line-up this week: Actress Renée Zellweger who made big knickers the talk of England; Jerry Seinfeld who made some people on TV.com unhappy (see the Soup Nazi debates in the forums) and Jeremy Clarkson who makes many people unhappy …

14. Will Smith, Len Goodman, Arlene Phillips, Bruno Tonioli, Craig Revel Horwood, Kerry Katona, Editors.
Dec 14, 2007

Never have so many people I have never heard of appeared in the same episode. Will Smith should save the day and Kerry Katona could make it a very long day if she is 'tired and emotional'. Music from Editors, which some viewers might find …

15. Andrew Flintoff, Stephen Merchant, Christopher Biggins, Janice Dickinson, Mark Ronson, Ricky Wilson.
