Shooting Stars Returns

Cult quiz show Shooting Stars returns to BBC2 on Wednesday (26/08/09) at 10pm with guests Christine Bleakley, Paddy McGuinness, DJ Ironik and Angelos Epithemiou. The madcap returns after a successful Christmas special. Vic Reeves told Radio Times magazine: "There's more energy in this than anything we've done. We're not crippled and incapable yet. I think comedy probably is a young man's game, but it's gone a bit stale at the moment."

Bob Mortimer added: "It doesn't feel like there's been that much new. I think The Mighty Boosh are quite good. But I could have been watching this new crop - Michael McIntyre and people - 20 years ago."

Vic added: "When we were doing Vic Reeves Big Night Out, they were the kind of people that were around, and we came along and did something different. And they're still there. There's nothing new."
