Ross is way past his sell-by date, ITV have already said there will be no series in 2017
No they haven't. There will be a new series in Autumn 2017 confirmed by ITV.

He seems to have reverted to getting the contestants involved with games which I don't enjoy. I was beginning to think that he had dropped them and was concentrating on the interviews in the last series, but the show seems to have gone back to the way it used to be.

And wow, does the lead singer of Years and Years have the weediest voice in pop music? It's embarrassing to watch him trying to sing live.

He's copying Ellen with the table tennis bat game and Jimmy Fallon with the other games.

I enjoyed the show tonight. Very relaxed with nobody trying to steal the show.

All were very entertaining, especially Phil who has a cracking sense of humour and I admire him for talking about the negativity towards him (not that I ever understood it). Poor bloke. He appears to be in a lot of pain.

Brilliant show tonight. JR back to his best. Absolutely adored Phil Collins.

I thought Collins was embarrassing. Like a drugged-up cab driver who'd strayed on to the screen. I just hope he signed Ross's book without Ross inferring any unintended slight that will cause years of festering anger and bitterness.

Watched the Jonathan Ross Show for the first time in ages. Just to see how Phil Collins was and any hint of a Genesis reunion. As I am not really interested in his solo career.
Think I have got more chance of winning the lottery and being hit by a meteorite at the same time.
Tedious program.

Watched ladt weeks show on catch up - not a single post on it I see. Ross really has flopped has'nt he. It was a terrible show with Russell Brand totally ruining it by making it the Russell Brand show. He ruined Bros' interview and he was just cringe worthy.

What is wrong with Phil? Why does he have a walking stick? I thought his performance was a bit sad, a great man and singer he used to be now reduced to struggling to stand up and noticed how he had to move the mike lower so he could get the notes out. Perhaps it's time he retired.

I used to be JR's biggest fan, but he can be tiresome. His 'game' with Britney Spears about farting, or his conversations with Bros & Russell Brand about masturbating, just come across as boorish.

It doesn't help that Graham Norton gets first choice of the big name celebs.

Was a good show in the end. Think it was better than Norton this week after a couple of so-so episodes.

Collins was a interesting guest and Lycett offered good timing and relief in the darker bits of the interview.

I usually hate the 'games' but I thought the drumming bit was fine.

He had back surgery which affected one of his feet, so currently walks with a stick. Also has hearing issues so he might seem slower to react in conversation. Guess it's what drumming for 50 years does for your health!

Thanks for that, didn't realise he'd had such health issues. Good luck to him for his recovery. I am a Phil Collins fan but was disappointed last night, but, I'll let him off as he obviously has some issues.

He did retire a few years ago, then he decided last year to come out of retirement when he found out people like Adele, Beyonce, Lorde and Pharrell Williams had said nice things about him.

Ross hasn't been the same since the Sachsgate scandal in my opinion. It knocked him off his perch.

Phil Collins is a pretty big name though, 200 million records sold (solo and with Genesis) puts him in an elite group. Even if he is a has-been who can't perform anymore. He's still a music legend for whom the word legend is not actually an exaggeration (i.e. he's not as important to music history as Michael Jackson, Bowie or Prince, but he's way more important than Robbie or Barlow). I was interested to hear he's got a career-spanning autobiography coming out. I was less impressed to hear he was coming out of retirement.

His bingo wing arms were distracting. I guess when a drummer stops drumming those big tight muscles start hanging there like limp chicken breasts, but in that taxi driver short sleeved top he had on it made them harder to ignore.

He can play the piano so he would have looked better sitting down at that rather than clinging on to the mic stand.

He turned into a pub. On many occasions.

Looking at the line-up I wasn't expecting much tonight but Stephen and Gino gave me a lot of laughs.

How on earth did Zeta Jones convince a Hollywood playboy to up sticks from LA and move to the middle of nowhere in Wales?

She must really know how to grease a pole

He's old enough to be her dad, probably couldn't believe his luck!
