GOLD, 10pm

Self-confessed comedy nerd Sally Phillips joins some of the nation’s top comedians in this nostalgic and funny romp through the bestever sketches.

In each episode she’s joined by a guest as they guide us through their perfect playlist of sketches that have inspired and shaped their career.

It’s a bit like Desert Island Discs for comedy.

Paul Whitehouse is first in the hot seat, presenting us with a mixture of gems chosen from TV of the past 50 years.

His selection is a mix of Python, Alan Partridge, Victoria Wood and his old pal Harry Enfield.

Paul also reveals the inspiration behind the famous catchphrase “suits you, sir”, his chance meeting with Fry and Laurie, and why one of his selections is the perfect sketch.

And watch out for his re-enactment of his favourite comedy moment with a little help from Sally.

Later episodes feature Jessica Hynes, Jason Manford, Johnny Vegas, Bob Mortimer and Sue Perkins.
