Lineup revealed for Ross's TV return

The guests for Jonathan Ross's first chatshow since serving his three-month suspension have been announced.

Stephen Fry and comedian Lee Evans will join the presenter for Friday Night With Jonathan Ross on January 23, while rockers Franz Ferdinand will provide the music.

Filming for the programme is expected to take place on January 21 or 22 and the BBC have revealed that one more guest will be announced nearer the time.

Ross was suspended without pay from his BBC One chatshow in October after he and comedian Russell Brand left a series of lewd messages on the answering machine of Fawlty Towers actor Andrew Sachs.

The format of of the show is expected to remain the same, but Ross has been told by bosses to cut back on swearing and will reportedly be shadowed by a personal censor during filming.
