Lead Balloon - Rick becomes an unlikely hero

Thursday 22 November @ 9.30-10.00pm on BBC TWO. Episode 2/6

Rick becomes a local hero when he stops someone from committing suicide, as Jack Dee's comedy series about ex-celebrity comedian Rick Spleen continues.

Rick gets even more excited when, as a result, he bumps into an important TV executive who agrees to come to dinner to talk about Rick's career.

Magda thoughtfully prepares a traditional dish from her country for the big evening but, when the guests finally arrive, Rick is in for an unwelcome surprise.

Rick is played by Jack Dee and Magda by Anna Crilly.
