Hot Gossip - Series 3 - Episode 1

Radio 2's Comedy Season launches with the return of Hot Gossip, the irreverent comedy panel show hosted by Claudia Winkleman. Once again it unleashes UK comics and commentators into the silicon-filled world of glossy magazines and showbiz columns, for a unique take on the week's most "important" celebrity news. The first programme of the new series features the acerbic and occasionally brutal wit of Argumental's Rufus Hound; writer and comedian DJ Danny Robbins; and the always sharp, pithy and to the point observations of Mock The Week regular Jo Caulfield. There are no teams, it's everyone for themselves, as they unleash a torrent of celebrity-fuelled opinion and navigate their way through regular rounds including Three In A Bed and Ask A Stupid Question. Radio 2's Comedy Season continues with documentaries celebrating the Carry On film franchise, as well as the timeless comedic talents of Tommy Cooper, Peter Sellers, Bob Monkhouse and Dave Allen.
