New Shows Resume Thursday Night
New episodes of the Late Late Show are back on Thursday and Friday night this week. The shows were taped earlier in anticipation of Craig’s comedy tour, but have not been aired until now. Craig will be back in the studio on Monday, taping new episodes.

The convention tweeted a photo:

Address to the Haggis
Fulfilling a Burns Night tradition on January 25th, Craig’s sister Lynn Ferguson was invited to address the haggis at a Los Angeles-area gathering, and she did a cracking good job.
