AWKWAFINA IS NORA FROM QUEENS: The US series arrived on iPlayer this morning, with the titular rapper, comedian and actress – who made her name in Crazy Rich Asians – telling the semi-fictionalised story of her life in New York when she was still Nora Lum. The comedy comes from her struggles coming to terms with being an adult, despite her 27 years, still living at home with her parents and lacking much ambition.

SUPERBOB: This twist on the superhero movie from comedian Brett Goldstein has returned to Amazon Prime. The stand-up plays a mild-mannered postman from Peckham who was struck by a meteor which bestowed him with super powers. The 2015 comedy co-stars Catherine Tate. Read our original review here

JOHN CLEESE: The comedy legend takes part in another online 'in conversation' event to tie in with his new book about creativity - this one with journalist Matthew d’Ancona kicks off at 7.30pm. Tickets cost £17.99, including a copy of the book. Tickets available here.
