Lead Balloon returns

Jack Dee returns tomorrow night (Thursday 14th November) as Rick Spleen in “Lead Balloon”. The BBC4 comedy show has made the journey over to BBC2 for this second series. And we’ve got a clip for you at the bottom of this story.

Nothing much has changed in Spleen’s life, he’s still the same old self-deluded liar, making a living from corporate gigs, low-rent chat shows and hoping for the big break.

In the meantime he’s preoccupied with everything from the points on his driving licence to the shadowy hitman he is convinced is on his tail. Then of course, there’s the trickiest problem of all – how does he lie his way out of them?

BBC2, 9.30pm.
