Episode overview
This week on The Harry Hill Show, the team deal with a stowaway stoat before welcoming Ore Oduba — Newsround alumnus, Strictly Come Dancing champion and Rocky Horror Show veteran. Sarah the AI Bot runs through his journey from a sporty Dorset childhood and Loughborough University to a broadcasting career spanning Newsround, Match of the Day Kickabout and the Royal Opera House, plus his unlikely Strictly win. Harry and Ore swap stories about a long-forgotten TV pilot with Janet Street-Porter and Rylan, lockdown’s chaotic drive-in comedy gigs, and treading the boards in The Rocky Horror Show. This week’s Theme of the Week welcomes art historian Verity Babbs to talk us through the deranged genius of Hieronymus Bosch, before Ore puts his knowledge to the test in a game of What Is The Velcro Singing?, and Gary tries out some jokes in his usual corner.
