Horne and Corden

This skitcom has a confidence out of whack with its material, but there are still some sizeable sniggers, including James Corden's neat Ricky Gervais stitch-up and the Team GB gymnasts on the rings. A nice nod to the old guard, too, with Tim Brooke-Taylor guesting at Bananaman's funeral. Radio Times reviewer - Mark Braxton
