The Jonathan Ross Show returns to ITV tonight with another star-studded line-up after being taken off air last weekend.

The popular chat show will air on Saturday, March 7 at 9.25pm on ITV1, bringing together a mix of Hollywood stars, musicians and comedians on the iconic yellow sofa.

Why wasn’t the show on last week?

Fans may have noticed the programme was missing from schedules on February 28.

That’s because ITV handed over the Saturday night slot to The BRIT Awards. They were hosted by comedian Jack Whitehall and ran from 8.15pm until 10.50pm.

The awards ceremony replaced the usual Saturday line-up, meaning The Jonathan Ross Show and even The 1% Club were temporarily removed from the schedule.

Who are the guests on The Jonathan Ross Show tonight?

Tonight’s episode (Season 23, Episode 4) features a wide range of famous faces.

Among the guests is Hollywood star Kurt Russell, who will chat with Jonathan about his long and successful acting career.

Music legend David Byrne, best known as the frontman of Talking Heads, also joins the show to discuss his work in music and the arts.

Comedian Sara Pascoe will be bringing the laughs. Actor Tim Roth is also expected to talk about his latest projects, including the upcoming Peaky Blinders film.

There’s even a scientific twist to the evening as space scientist Dame Maggie Aderin, presenter of The Sky at Night, will appear on the programme.

Meanwhile, singer-songwriter Noah Kahan will be performing. His hit song Stick Season has racked up billions of streams worldwide.

Jonathan Ross hosts Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing

The chat show host has also been busy with a brand-new television project.

Earlier this week he launched Channel 4’s new reality series Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing. It premiered on Monday, March 2. The next episode set to air Monday, March 9.

The unusual competition show sees nine mismatched pairs literally handcuffed together as they attempt to survive a road trip across the UK.

The last pair remaining could walk away with a £100,000 prize.
