The tunes are coming thick and fast courtesy of Emeli Sande, Jake Bugg, Jessie J, Kasabian, Nicole Scherzinger, Noel Gallagher, Paloma Faith and Rizzle Kicks. Jimmy Carr, Jason Manford, Doc Brown, Eddie Izzard, Noel Fielding and Simon Amstell provide the laughs, and all the money raised goes toward support services for people affected by drug and alcohol addictions.

A romp through key years of Never Mind The Buzzcocks' 17 year run, combining the most engaging music news stories with a raft of Buzzcocks' memorable moments, starting with 1996, the year the programme was first shown.

The Silent Man is very loosely based on the legendary grieving process of early 20th century painter Oskar Kokoschka from his great love Alma Malher through the figure of a home made doll.

Charlotte Colbert has reinterpreted the story in a contemporary context making it about a woman grieving a lost love through the figure of a life size male doll.

《黑色池塘》是2011年一部收获众多好评的独立小片。影片成本仅为2万5000英镑，两位导演汤姆·金斯利、维尔·沙培拍摄当时也都只有二十四五岁的年纪。影片中，即使正常的人也会做出不正常的举动，而这也许可以用在影片的主演克里斯·朗汉姆身上。《黑色池塘》是这位曾凭借《灵通人士》获得英国学院奖的著名喜剧演员以“儿童色情”相关的罪名被判入狱三个半月之后接演的首部影片。

Honest, introspective comic Simon Amstell digs deep and delivers a uniquely vulnerable stand-up set on love, ego, intimacy and ayahuasca.

This one-off stand-up special is a performance of Simon Amstell's stand-up show, 'Numb', which he toured to sell-out audiences around the UK and Ireland in 2012, as well as Australia and, more recently, Los Angeles, San Francisco and New York. Recorded specially for BBC Four at TV Centre, it's a stripped-down, intimate performance, with no set and minimal lighting - a painfully raw, honest and deeply funny exploration of disconnection and loneliness.

The best and funniest pop quiz in the world, ever!!!
