TV's Romesh Ranganathan has already found time in a full schedule to make one sitcom, The Reluctant Landlord, for Sky, so when I heard about his new sitcom, Avoidance, I assumed it would be similarly broad and traditional and might also draw on his own life. Yet Avoidance is nothing of the sort. It's a gentle comedy, filmed without an audience, that almost borders on comedy drama rather than flat-out laughter-fest. And unless Ranganathan is trying to tell us something, isn't like his real life at all.
DANIEL SLOSS - CAN’T is the all-new, 12th solo show by Scotland’s global comedy superstar.

Nathan Cassidy's show Bumblebee that he was due to perform at this year's Vault Festival has been made available as an Amazon Prime Special
You get home, the door is smashed, a burglar flees. You chase – to the backing of ‘Flight of the bumblebee’. And then… a sting in the tale – let’s play. ..
London venue 2Northdown is to stage what is claimed to be the UK's first Middle Eastern comedy festival this week.
Comedian James Acaster is one of the guests on this week's Sunday Brunch, hosted by Tim Lovejoy.
It's been a high profile week for Acaster, but not for the reasons expected. He should have been promoting his new Dave comedy Hypothetical, which he co-hosts with Josh Widdicombe and his return to live comedy with a new show about hecklers and heckling and his upcoming new book about giving up social media, but instead has been drawn into the debate over the new Ricky Gervais netflix special, Supernature.
Viewers were left confused when the screen went blank but the dialogue continued during a scene in a restaurant with Jack and Nikki during Monday's edition of Silent Witness.
Sally Lindsay, Alex Brooker, Lauren Laverne, Stephen Mangan, Konnie Huq and Ed Gamble (pictured) have all been confirmed as special guests hosts for the Remarkable Entertainment (a Banijay UK company) produced Pointless.
