There are more special guests than you can shake a stick at tonight, with everyone from the Chuckle Brothers to Bob Carolgees popping in, but it's Meera Syal who has the honour of being David Walliams's Friend.

Meera, who appeared in the latest Marvel juggernaut Doctor Strange, goes back to her sketch-show roots as she and David play parents explaining their rocky marriage to their child using Peppa Pig dolls. And there's a new BBC drama on: Good Cop, Indian Mum Cop!
