9PM, CH4 ★★★★

Ben Elton (pictured) hosts this one-off revival of the 1980s stand-up and entertainm­ent show which, once upon a time, was appointmen­t viewing on the TV. It’s being shown as part of Channel 4’s 40th birthday celebratio­ns, and features many of the game-changing architects of anarchy who broke through in the mid-1980s (Harry Enfield, Julian Clary and Jo Brand), blending their ground-breaking comedy exploits with today’s trailblaze­rs — including Rosie Jones, Mawaan Rizwan, Jordan Gray. Music comes courtesy of Mercury nominee Self Esteem.
