The Russell Howard Hour

Sky Showcase, 10pm

Putting a positive spin on the headlines hasn’t been easy over the past year or so, but Howard (left) is back to attempt it once again in his latest series. He’ll also be offering us his more satirical insights on the week’s big national and international news, as well as bringing us a mix of celebrity guests, would-be global correspondents and some of the freshest new talents on the stand-up comedy circuit. ★★★★★
